these especially because they p erta in to
my story.
What was then a d irt road running
Itefore the Chatsworth manor house is
now a pair of steel rails on which pass
frequent trains of cars. One evening
during that comparatively primitive pe
riod as a winter sun was sinking below
the Palisades on the opposite side of
the river a man came down this road
from the northward, eyed the Chats-,
worth home critically and, whan he
reached the gate, turned In.
His summon» on the iron knocker
was answered by Miss Dorothy Chats
worth, who at the time was the only
member of the family at home. He told
her that he was on his way to* New
Yorkr bnt mtist stop somewhere for the
night. Would she kindly give him sup
per and a bed? He was a pleesant
spoken man. though be did not appear
to be a gentleman. H is dress was rath
er old fashioned, being a claret colored
coat, a buff waistcoat and knee
breeches of the same hue as the coat;
his hat a bell crowned beaver. I t seem
ed to Dorothy that the clothea were
better than the man.
Her father was a Virginian, and hos
p itality was then a passion w ith -th e
people of the Old Dominion. Dorothy
knew that If her father were at home
the man would be admitted and treated
according to his station. She therefore
B ÜSB1SO TO T U B W IH D O W , B B S i D M I T T M )
sag,
made him welcome, gave him a good
supper, and a negro servant showed
him to a bedroom.
It was still early when the traveler
turned in, and Dorothy was in the tlv
lng room, sitting by a globe lamp em
b rolde ring. H er thoughts were upon a
citizen of New York, one Leonard
Bleeker, from whom she had that day
received a letter by the post stating
that ho had fallen Into debt and was
Hable to be arrested at any moment
and thrown Into prison. Indeed, he
was preparing to save himself by flight
Dorothy was much troubled at this, for
she and young Bleeker were lovers.
Presently, throwing down her embroid
ery, she seated herself before her spin
et—the first form of piano—and began
to run her fingers somewhat feverishly
over the keys. Hearing a tap on the
window opening on to the porch, abe
saw the object o f her solicitude wear
ing a look of trouble. Rushing to the
window, she admitted him.
“Oh, Len!” she exclaimed.
“The bailiffs are after me. Hide me,
or, rather, give mo a disguise. They
have my description, though 1 think
nono of them have ever soon mo. I f 1
remain here 1 shall be arrested. Can’t
you give me a different suit—one of
your father’s or brother’s? I f yon can
I w ill go on In the darkness and If 1
n cft the bailiffs w ill not bo known.”
Dorothy thought of the traveler and
told her lover of the clothea be wore.
They wore different from the incoming
fashion of a frock coat w ith full skirt
and pantaloons worn by Bleeker. Il
ho could possess himself of this anti
quated suit he would have a fine chance
o f deceiving hla pursuers. A fter a
few moments* thought he determined
to try to possess himself of them Dor
othy dhowed him to the room where
the guest bad been placed, and. bearing
the occnflent snoring, bo opened the
door softly, entered the room, felt hla
way till ho found the clothes'ón d e fia ir
and took them out with him. Then,
entering an adjoining room, be changed
hla own suit for them and. taking the
former beck to the stranger’« room, loft
them there.
Dorothy persuaded him to delay bis
departure till early morning. At mid
night she left him. Throwing himself
on a lounge, be got a few hours* sleep.
At dawn be deitarted and as be pass
ed through tbe gate into the rood saw
at au upper window tbe anxious face
of his sweetheart. Exchanging k
on the ti|>s of their huger«, they parted,
passing oil up the rood toward
