SYNOPSIS.
Andy Meleen, aged and eccentric m il­
lionaire miner, le d yin g and orders his
attorn ey to draw up a w ill leavin g all his
prop erty to the son o f a sister from whom
he was separated years before and o f
whose name even he Is ignorant. Andy
tells the attorney that he was married In
his youth, but left his w ife a fte r a quar­
rel In which he struck her. He learned
a fterw a rd that she and his daughter were
dead.
C H APTE R I.— Continued.
"W ell, that's on’y right. The money
kem out o’ old Nevady; let her have
It back ag in. But mind you, Carboy,
not till you’ve raked all creation with
a fine-tooth comb to And Mattie’s boy.”
"Whom will you name as executors
or trustees?”
"Must you have ’em?” Meleen an­
swered anxiously, as though the func­
tionaries referred to were of a species
noxious and undesirable.
"Undoubtedly; they are necessary
evils.”
Meleen frowned in perplexity.
It
seemed as though It were costing him
far more trouble to leave his money
behind him than It had been to amass
It and guard It during his eventful life.
"Can’t you fellers act?” he inquired
dubiously at length— "you fellers"— in­
dicating Mr. Carboy and his partners.
"Certainly, If you wish It. Tw o will
be sufficient.
Suppose we say Mr.
Passavant and myself?"
With a gesture as of one wearied
with the whole subject Meleen sig­
nified assent. Then, as the lawyer
rose to go Indoors, he said:
“ Fix It up quick. Carboy, I’m mor­
tal tire d !”
By this time the sun had set behind
the western wall of mountains, and
Evan appeared to wheel his master
within. But the tough old fellow de­
murred.
Half his nights hat* been
spent In the open air with only the
starry canopy for a ten*. Now that
the end was near, he Leaded the crib­
bed and cabined confinement of four
walls. oO a lantern was brought and
hung to the .afters of the porch,
where Its dim radiance could not In­
terfere with that piercing gaze which
to the last roamed lovingly over the
mountain prospect.
One, two hours passed, and save for
the
steady,
harshly
rhythmical
“ crunch-crunch” of the "stamps" the
town below
was strangely quiet.
E very soul therein knew that the
master-mind In the hillside eyrie was
passing away; hushed were the usual
sounds of rude revelry and “ wide-
open” license.
It was felt to be a
fateful night for the town of Meleen.
A t length Mr. Carboy’s task was
done. A table was carried on to the
porch; by lantern-light the will was
read to the testator, who turned his
eyes to meet those of the lawyer in
mute approval when the reading was
ended. Then, lifted and supported by
old Evan, he affixed his uncouth and
sprawling signature, the witnesses fol­
lowed, and the deed was done which
bequeathed a princely fortune and a
royal revenue to— whom?
Next morning Andrew Meleen was
found lifeless In bed, his gnarled and
knotted features composed In a peace­
ful, almost ecstatic, smile.
"Perhaps he has found M inna!”
mused the lawyer, with humid eyes,
as he stood by the side of his strange
client.
C H APTE R II.
In an old-fashioned sitting room In an
antiquated brick house in that unfash­
ionable quarter of “ downtown" New
York formerly known as Greenwich
village there sat, one autumn evening,
a young couple, both of whom were
exceedingly good to look upon.
T o the judicious observer It would
have been apparent from their atti­
tude and bearing each towards the
other that they were something more
than mere friends, yet less than man
and wife.
In fact, they were con­
tented and happy dwellers In that de­
lectable border-land known as Being
Engaged.
The girl was fairly tall of stature, bru-
nett as to complexion, with a wealth
of fine and glossy dark hair which
rippled and waved around a small but
shapely head and above a witchlngly
feminine forehead, white and broad
and low. Her eyes were of a very
steadfast dark gray, set widely apart,
giving one the Impression of quiet re­
pose and cool Judgment A firm chin
above a strong and supple throat
made her look older and more wom­
anly than her years really warranted.
She was busied with one of those
trifles of needlework which keep the
fingers busy without curbing one's
tongue, and at the same time serve
to display to admiring and even co­
quettish advantage a very shapely
