• Fanning on tht crest to stfrvefr the
landscape, 1 saw a man. wearing a der-
by bat and a light topcoat leaning
against a fence that inclosed a pasture
As I glanced in his direction be moved
away hastily toward the road below.
The feeling of being watched is not
agreeable, and I could not account for
him. A« be passed out of sight still
another mao appeared, emetglug from
a strip of woodland farther on. Even
through tbe evening base 1 should have
said that be was a gentleman. The
two men apparently bore*no> relation to
each other, though they were walking
in the same direction, bound. I judged,
for the highway below 1 had an un-
comfortable feeling that they had both
been'^ueervlng me. though for what
purpo.se I could not imagine. Then
-once more. Just as 1 was about to en-
ter the Italian garden t from a fallow
field that hung slightly above it, a
third man appeared as mysteriously
as though he bad sprung from the
ground, and ran at a sharp dog trot
along the fence, beaded, like the oth-
ers. for the road. In the’ third instance
the stranger undoubtedly took pains to
hide his face, but be. too, was well
dressed and wore a topcoat and a fe-
dora hrt of current-style.
I did not know why these gentlemen
were ranging the neighborhood or what
object they bad In view, but their sev-
eral appearances had interested me,
and I went on into the bouse well sat-
isfied that events of an unusual char-
acter were likely to mark my visit to
the home of Miss Octavia Hollister.
Cecilia sat rending alone when 1 en-
tered the library shortly before the din-
ner hour. She put* down her book and
we fell into fitful talk
“I took a walk after tea. I always
feel that sunsets are best seen from
the fields. You can't quite do them
justice from windows.” she began.
She seemed preoccupied. Wiggins
was in her recollection of the glowing
landscape—! was confident of this, and
poor Wiggins was even now wander-
ing these hills, .no doubt brooding upon
fils troubles under clear October stars.
Diaser was announced the moment
Miss Hollister entered, and I walked
out between them. Miss'Octavia Hol-
lister was a surprising person, but in
nothing was she so delightfully way-
ward as in the gowns she wore. My
ignorance of such matters is immeas-
urable. but I fancy that -she designed
her owa raiment and bad her ideas
were thereupon carried out by a tailor
of skill. At the Asolando, and when we
had met at tea tn her own house, she
had worn the severest of tailored
gowns, with short skirt and a coat
Into whose pockets she was fond of
thrusting her hands. Tonight the ma-
teria) was laveader silk trimmed in
white, but the skirt had not lengthened,
and over a white silk waist she -wore
a kind of cutaway cot that matched
the skirt. An aigret in her lovely
white hair contributed a piquant note
to the whole impression. As we pass
ed down the hill she talked with great
animation of The Hague tribunal, just
then holding a promineut place in the
newspapers for some reasoa that ha«
escaped me.
“The whole thing is absurd, perfect-
ly absurd. I know of nothing that
would contribute more to human enjoy-
ment than a real war between Ger
many and England. The Hague Wes
is pure sentimentalism—if sentiments J
fem can ever be said to be pure. I will
go further and say that I consider it
positively immoral.’*
She bad ordered dinner in the gun
room, but 1 thought this merely a turn
of her humor, and I was taken aback
when she led the way into a .low. hear!
ly raftered room, where electric sconces
of an odd type were thrust at irregular
intervals along the wails, which wore
otherwise bung with arms of many
sorts in orderly combinations They
were not the litter of antique shops. I
saw in a hasty glance, but rifles and
guns of the latest patterns and beside
the sideboard stood a gun rack and a
cabinet which I assumed contained still
other and perhaps deadlier weapons.
But for the presence of Miss Cecilia,
who was essentially typical of our
twentieth century American woman. I
thtak I might readily have yielded to
the Illusion that I was the guest of
some eccentric chatelaine who bad in-
vited me to dine with her in a bastion
of her fortress before ordering me to
some chamber of horrors for execu-
tion.
No reference was made to the char-
acter of the room. 1 felt in fact that
Cecilia rather pleaded with her eyes
that I should make no reference
And Miss Hollister remarked
casually as though in comment
my thoughts:
“Consistency has buried its
sands and habit its tens of thousands.
We should live. Mr. Ames, for the
changes and chances of this troubled
life. Between an opera box and a
villa at Newport many of my best
friends have perished.”
Then with startling abruptness she
put down her fork and. bending her
wonderfully

quaintance of Hartley Wiggins?”
Cecilia lifted her bead. I saw -that
she had beea -ta startled •* 1. It
crossed my ostwd that a denial vf any
acquaintance wttb Wiggin* might best
serve him ia the efreumstanees But
I sin not. I hope, without a sense of
shame, and I eeeponded‘promptly:
“Yes. I know film well. We are old
friends. I always see a good deal 01
him during the winter. £U* summers
are spent usually eo bl* ranch iu itbe
west. We dined together two day*
ago at tbe Hare and Tortoise, just be-
fore he. left for the west”
“You will pardon me if >1 say that it
is wholly to fita credit that ihe >has for-
sworn the professions and Identified
himself with the '^enorabie calling of
the busbandman.”
“We met Mr. Wiggins while -travel-
ing abroad last summer.” interposed
Cecilia, meeting tny eyes -quite -frankly.
“Met him! Did you say met him.
Cecilia? On tbe contrary, we found
him waiting for oe at tbe dock the
morning we sailed.'’ eoorected Mira
Hollister, “and we never lest film a
day In three months of rapid travel
I had never met blua before, but I can-
not deny that toe made bi mseif exceed-
ingly agreeable If. aa J suspected, be
had deliberately planned to travel on
the same steamer with my two nieces.
I have only praise for bis conduct,
for In these days. Mr. Antes, it warms decrease in the price of wheat, which

“I'm sure Mr. Wiggins made himself to 2 lbs., are 12 l-2c now instead of
very agreeable.’’ remarked Cecilia col- 15c.
orleasiy.
“For myself.’’ retorted Mira Hollis-
ter, “I should speak even more strong-
ly. He repeatedly served us with tact
and delicacy. I had formed so high
an opinion of Mr. Wiggins that 1 learn-
ed with sincerest regret that bls an-
cestors were Tories and took no part
in the struggle for American Independ-
ence. There are times when 1 serious-
ly question the wisdom of tbe cslonists
in breaking with the mother country,
but certainly no man of character in
that day could have hesitated as to bis
proper course.’’
Then, as though by intention, Mira
Hollister dropped upon tbe smooth cur-
rent of our talk a sentence that drove
tbe color from Cecilia’s face.
“Hezekiah and Mr. Wiggins were tbe
best of friends.” was Miss Hollister’s
remark.
Cecilia’s eyes were on her plate, but
her aunt went on in her blithest fash-
ion:
“You may not know that Hezekiah is
another niece. Cecilia’s sister. She
was named, at my suggestion, for my
father, there being no son in the fam-
ily. and I trust that so unusual a name
in a young girl does not strike you as
indefensible.”
“On tbe contrary, it seems to me
wholly refreshing and delightful. As
I recall tbe Sunday school pf my youth.
Hezekiah was a monarch of great au-
thority. whose animosity toward Sen-
nacherib was justified in tbe fullest
degree. The very name bristle* with
■pears and is musical with tbe trum-
pets of Israel. Nothing would make
me happier than to meet tbe young
lady who bears this :llustrious name.’’
“As'to the your knowledge of ancient
history. Mr. Ames.” began Miss Hol-
lister as she belpet herself to tbe
cheese—sweets. I noted, were not in-
cluded in the very -ample meal I bad
enjoyed—“it Is clear that you were
well taught In your youth. 1 am not
surprised, however, for I should have
expected nothing less of a son of the
late General Ame* of Hartford. As to
meeting my niece Hezekiah, 1 fear that
that la at present impossible. While
Cecilia remains with me Hezekiah's
duty Is to her father, and 1 must say
tn all kindness that Hezekiah’s ways,
like those of Providence and tbe cus-
tom bouse, are beyond my feeble un-
derstanding. In a word. Mr. Ames.
Hezekiah is different”
“Hezekiah,” added
feeling, “is a dear.”
“Please don’t bring
to the table!” cried
“Mr. Wiggins once Informed me in a
moment of forgetfulness—it was at
Fontainebleau. I remember, when
Hezekiah persisted in reminding a one
armed French colonel who was hang-
ing about that we named cities in
America for Bismarck—it was there at
the inn that Mr. Wiggins confided to
me his belief that Hezekiah bears a
strong resemblance to the common or
domestic peach. As a single peach at
that place was charged in the bill at
10 francs, the remark waa ill timed, to
say the least But Mr. Wiggins was
so contrite when I rebuked him that I
allowed him to pay for our luncheon-
no small matter, indeed, for Heze-
kiah’s appetite is nothing if not ro-
bust”
Miss Hollister gave so many turns to
the conversation that I could reach no
conclusion as to her feeling toward
Wiggins or Hezekiah Hollister, and. us
for Cecilia, I was unable to determine
whether she waa a prisoner at Hope-
field Manor or the willing and devote.!
