CHAPTER IL,
Alicel AYice! Alice!
The shrill tones resotnded throngch the chill evening air. They reached the eurs of a girl reading, curled up in e
of a deserced old barn,
corner
At the anyry tones, she closed her hook with a sigh, and vising slowly, made her way to the step-ladder that led fron: the varn to the yard,
A wonrin stood here—a coarse, stout
wonmn, with arms akimbo.
“Where ‘ave you idle yagrant that you are!’ she cried loudly, as the girl crept down the ladder.

“In the barn, indeed! Tl] have that door locked that j will, or else Vl kuew the reason why. Do you think I've got nothing to do but keep you in food

basket up to Mrs. Grey at the Castle: it
ought to have been there this hour past.”
“To the Castie” faltered Alice shrinking back, ““‘to+wteht? Oh, Aunt Martha!”
‘What, are you frightened?” said Mrs. Martha Brown with an angry laugh. “What are you fit for, Alice? Your head's just stuffed with all the
hnensense you can get out of beoks. Off with you! Here's the basket.”
“It is se dark,’ murmured the gir, leiting her great eyes wander from the
| yard to the deserted country lane, “and
then there’s ‘Madman’s Drift’ to pass.”
“Well, what of it?” asked the other. fastening down the basket-lid vigoreus- ly. “A place where « madman put an end to his life. Dead men do no harm,
you poor feol tT” Alice shuddered, but there was no sign of merey in her -aunt’s face. “Give me the basket.” she said sud- derly. “Any message?’
“No: unless you ask Mrs. Grey when ‘she wants the next lot of ergs. Now

INCIPIENT CATARRH CURED.
Mrs. Rosie Stearn, 30 Walton street, Toronto, says :—“I suf- fered at every change im _ the weather with cold in the head. At
times it was so bad that I was umable to speak, being completely stuffed up. I was advised to try Dr. Chase’s Ca- tarrh Cure, and did so, and received immediate relief.

Alice stood silent as the aucry Wwo- iman scolded on; her small hands were clasped tightly together, a mute look was on her pale face.
“What do you want me _ for?’ she vasked at last.
The woman ceased. Never before in er remembrance had Alice taken her scolding so quiethy.

She round her supple young th autumn night struck chilly, and stepped inte the lane,
fer thoughts were a tangled mass she hurried anger and weurimess of spirit, 2s her mind turned to her aunt,
under whose
figure, for the
as
aiong:
eare she had lived ever since she could remember; disappoint- ment at leaving the beautiful story in
her book, and fright of the dark. lonely path which grew greater at every step she took.
“Oh, if Sam were only here!” she said
to herself as she hurried on, not daring to ela tothe right orthe left for feur ef seeing phantom forms her vivid im- ach lied,
Sam was one of the farm-helps.
Under any other circumstances Alice shunned him, but now she would have welcomed him with open arms.”
She left the lane, and approached an
nee
ition supplied
open waste of land.
It was the dreaded Madman’s Drift.
\ sndden break in the road at one side, showed a steep incline and chasm, ( n which the unfortunate man who his name to the spot had sought his « h.
\lice crept towards the dreaded place, quivering with fear.
Although grown out of her childhood, she still lived in a world of fairies, evil S$] and phantoms.
As she stole through the dusk, with her pale face peeping from beneath the mass of golden curls, her small hand clutching the basket as if for support, she looked almost
a fairy herself—a strange frail flower to belong to go coarse and common a woman as the
farmer’s wife she called aunt,
All the village girls regarded this pale, slender creature with contempt. She was so white and poorlooking beside their buxom charms—fit for nothing but books.
Alice heeded not their contempt. She would have been happy with her beloved bc oks, but she had a hard life—nothing bet scoldings from Martha Brown, jeers from the boys and maids about the farm for her strange quiet ways, and heavy work for her young hands, which broucht the teams often to her beautiful eyes and a sob from her lonely heart,
When work was over and she was alone in bed, she turned once more to her beloved books, and her mind was crammed with weird stories of knights and chivalry that pleased and excited her.
She crept past the Madman’s Drift With closed eyes, and gave a sigh of
gindness when she was once safe away from it.
Her arms ached, her limbs trembled with her excitement and exertion, and ber steps crew slower as she entered the wood which led to the back of the Castie.
Suddenly, as her heart was growing more settled, it gave one leap into her mouth; she eclutehed her basket, stag- gered to a tree, and then waited and listened.
The rapid thump, thump, of her heart was the only sound in her ears at first; then came more terrible ones—mufiled and confused then just
noises,
ing faint erties, while the other’s arms were wound round him, grasping him till he sank to the ground and lay
motionless.
Alice. leaning against a tree, saw all this, vet it seemed to her like a hideoas dream: she was cold almost to death, Her basket slipped from her arm—she had no power to stop it—and fell with a erash, causing the man who was stooping over the body to start, utter a then stride towards her.
She had only time to catch a fleeting glimpse of a dark face, with cruel eyes, hot with anger, a torn collar, and marks of blood on his cheek, to hear his low hurried words, ‘A girl, by all that’s ex- ecrable!’ and she lost all remembrance, her eyes closed, her head dropped, and she fell into his arms in a swoon.
“Good,” muttered the man as he plac- ed her gently on the ground; “she will know nothing, as for you, poor fool,” moving back to the prostrate form of the man, “you have served my pnrpose -revyenge for which I have waited so gong has come at last. Ah, you move.”
He bent over the man and listened to
and sick
loud curse,
the muttered words from between the pale lips. “Pustace—give—me—yrour hand; I—
do not believe it. You will not take--my hand! What—she 1s false—vou say— you vJlsin—you black-hearted scoundrel —that that! Good God!—he is dead! Erstace—speak to me—speak—he is dead—I—have murdered him.”
The listener rose; there was a curious light on his face,
“What!” he whispered to himself; “the thinks it was his hand. Could anything he better? He does not even remember pic. Stay, let me think—this is delirium; it may when he wakes to his snees. I must impress this belief on its brain by stronger evidence. The cil dies not move, Good—in one moment more,”

the hedge. sound might have reached the ears of the two silent forms, but they were dim,
The man emerged again, he was drag- ging something with difficulty; it was a body, the misty light of the moon shoe
on a dead face—on a limp inanimate form. “Now,” muttered the worker, “now
all is complete. Eustace Rivers is dead —dead by the hand of his friend Roy Darrell; there evidence enough to damn an angel, and he will die for it. Now I must be gone; he moves again, and the girl will awaken. So, Brue Gardyne, your revenge is complete.”
He stole gently away, and gradually the form of the man he had called Roy Darrell moved from the ground, with trembling hands he raised his weak body to a kneeling position, then let his eyes, dazed with faintness and horror, wander round.
They rested on the figure of Alice with wonder and scarce comprehension; then they moved slowly on till they rest- ed on the dead man, and with a shud- der of horror he eovered his face with his hands and groaned aloud. .
“It is no dream; it is the horrible truth! Oh, Eustace, my friend, my almost brother, dead, and by my hand!”
His hoarse whisner fell on Alice's ears. She was recovering.
She helped herself to rise by the aid of the tree, then learned ajrainst it, faint and weak, to try and think.
Her basket lay unheeded at her feet. She seemed vet to be living in a hideous nightmare, till looking round, her eyes fell on the kneeling man and the dead body.
She uttered a faint shriek, and in an- other moment Roy Darrell was stand- ing before her, glaring into her face.
“Who are you?” he asked, hoarsely. “Where do you come from? Answer at once!” ‘
“I am Alice Dornton,” gasped rather than spoke the girl. “Oh, do not hurt ine, sir! I was on my way to the Castle for my aunt, when, when—~—” Her voice faltered.
He grasped ther hand.
“What?” he demanded huskfly,
He would know the truth.
For a moment a flash of joy went through his mind. This girl might have seen the fatal blow struck, the hand that took the life of his friend Eustace. She might have seen that phantom third form that haunted his memory.
