Mr. Griswold Forsakes the Academic Life. Miss Osborne had asked Griswold to await the outcome of the day, and. finding himself thus poss ssed of a vacation, he Indulged his antiquarian Instincts by exploring Columbia The late afternoon found him in the lovely cathedral churchyard, where an aged negro, tending the graves of an illustrious family, leaned upon his spade and recited the achievements and virtues of the dead As the shadows lengthened, Griswold walked back to the hotel, where he ate supper, then, calling for a horse, he rode through the streets In a mood of more complete alienation than he had ever- experienced In a foreign country; yet the very scents of the summer night, stealing out from old gardens, the voices that reached him from open doorways, spoke of home. As he reached the outskirts of town and rode on toward the governors mansion, hia mood changed, and he laughed softly, for he remembered Ardmore, and Ardmore was beyond question the most amusing person he knew. It was unfortunate, he generously reflected, that Ardmore, rather than himself, had not been plunged Into this present undertaking, which was much more In Ardmore's line that his own. There would, however, be a great satisfaction In telling Ard more of his unexpected visit to jn exchange for his friend's report of his pursuit of the winking eye. He only regretted that In the nature of things Columbia Is a jnod ern city, a seat of commerce as well as of government, a place where bank clearings are seriously computed, and where the Jaunty adventurer with sword and ruffles Is quite likely to run afoul of the police. Yet his ow n Imagination was faTmore fertile than Ardmore's, and he would here hailed men as joyfully a troop of mail-claas his friend had he met them clanking In the highway. Thus, modern as we think ourselves, the least venture-gomamong us dreams that some day some turn of a street corner will bring him face to face with what we please to call our fate; and this is the manifestation of our last drop of imedleval blood - The grimmest seek er after reality looks out of the corner of his eye for the flutter of a white handkerchief from the Ivied tower he affects to ignore; and. In spite of himself, he is buoyed by the hope that some day a horn will so for him over the nearest hill Miss Osborne met him at the veri.n Indoors a mandolin and da steps piano struck up the merry chords of The Eutaw Girl.
