It was not more than eight o'clock in the morning when he wrote this letter, and as soon as possible he dispatched a awift messenger with it to Cornelia. Probably Madame Hyde divined something of the importance and tenor-oa missive sent in such a hurry of anxious love, so early In the day, but she showed neither annoyance nor curiosity regarding it. Joris, my dear one, she said, as they rose from the breakfast table, Joris, I think there is a letter from your father. To the city you must go as soon as you can, for I have had a restless night, full of feeling it has been. Joris smiled and kissing her, said, I am going at once.

When he had finished this letter, he folded and sealed It, and walked to the window with it in hia hand. Then he saw Cornelia returning home from some shopping or social errand, and hastily calling a servant, ordered him to deliver the letter at once to Miss Moran.

The thought delighted him: He was willing to bear disappointment himself, if by doing so some of Hydes smiling confidence was changed to that unhappy uneasiness which he detected in his rival's face and manner. The young men bowed to each other, but did not speak. What a mere sullen creature that Rem Van Ariens is!" thought Hyde, and with all the good temper in the world I affirm It."

Do you know how late It Is, Cornelia? There la a letter on your dressing table that came by Lieut Hydes servant two or three hours ago. An she entered her room an imposing looking letter met her eyes a letter written upon the finest paper, squarely folded, and closed with a large seal of scarlet wax carrying the Hyde anna. Poor Rems message lost instantly whatever Interest it possessed; she let it fall from her hand, and lifting Hyde's, opened it with that marvelous womanly impetuosity which love teaches. In a moment she felt all that he felt; all the ecstasy and tumult of a great affection not aura For this letter was the little more In Hydes love, and, oh, how much It was! She pondered it until she was called to dinner. There was then no time to read Reins letter, but she broke the seal and glanced at its tenor, and an expression of pity and annoyance came into her eyes. Hastily she locked both letters awsy In a drawer In her desk. Dr. Moran was not at home, nor was he expected until sundown, so mother and daughter enjoyed together the confidence which Hyde's letter induced. Mrs. Moran thought the young man was right, and promised, to a certain extent, to favor his proposaL However, Cornelia, she added, unless your father is perfectly agreeable and satisfied, I would not advise yon to make any engagement. The answering of these letters was naturally Cornelia's first afternoon thought. To write to Joris was a delightful thing, an unusual pleasure, and she sat down, smiling, to pen the lines which she thought would bring her much happiness, but which were doomed to bring her a great sorrow: My Joris! My Dear Friend: 'Tis scarce an hour since I received your letter, but I have read it over four times. And whatever you desire, that also is my desire; and I am deceived as much aa you, if you think I do not love you as much aa I am loved by you. Come, then, this very night aa soon as you think convenient If my father is in a suitable temper It will be well to speak plainly to him, and I am sure that xny mother will ay In our favor all that ia wise. What more Is to say I will keep for your ear, for you are enough in my heart to know all my thoughts, and to know better than I can tell you how de&rty, how constantly, how entirely I love you. Your forever, Cornelia. (To he continued.) |
