The affair did not appear so simple to the father as to Rougane the elder v rightly a d to’' 1énd himseif to s a piece of ception Late that night, as M. de diou sat gloomily in his brother's li- brary, the pips in which he had eought solace extinguished his fingers, there came a ing at the door A slim young man in a dark olive surcoat stood at the threshold He wore boots, buckskins, and a small sword, and round his waist there was a tri-color sash, in his hat a tri- color cockade M. de Kercadiou, startled in such an hour by the sudden apparition, greeted Andre-Louis In terms almost identical with se in which in that same room he had greeted him on a similar occasion once before “‘What do you want here sir “I am a representative 1 certain powers I am very oppor- tunely returning to Paris. Can 1 serve you where Rougane cannot? Aline should be placed in safety at once."” M. de Kercadiou sursendered un- conditionally. He cam@over and took Andre-Louis’ hand Andre-Louis continued “About Aline?” he asked And himself answered his own question “She must be brought out of Paris at once, before the place becomes a shambles. Young Rougane's plan good.” “But Rougane the elder will not hear of it.” ‘“You mean he will not do it on his own responsibility. But he has con-| iin of bells Kerc between have “IF YOU SEND THAT TO PARAS NOON.” sented to do it on mine I have Iet_t' him a note over my signature to the effect that a safe-conduct for Mile. de Kercadiou.to go to Paris and return is issued by him in compliance with crders from me."" M. de Karcadiou took the sheet of paper that Andre-Iouis held out “If you send that to Paris by young Rougane in the morning," said ‘Andre-Louis, “Aline should be here by noon. If there is any other way in which I can serve you, you have but to name it whilst I am here. “But there is, Andre DN Rougane tell you that there 'widre others .

' ‘But why?" | “Monsieur, I can do what I am doing for Aline without &ffénding my conscience. But Mme. Plougastel is in very different case Neither Aline nor any of hera have been concerned in counter-revolutionary work Rut Mme. Plougastel is the wife of M. le Comte de Plougastel, whom all the ~world knows to be an agent between the Court and the emigres.'” *“You must take the risk." “I must?” he echoed “Why must 1? Your reasons, monsieur?’ “I violate my words of honor, my oath, if I tell you." M. de Kercadiou turned away, wringing his hands, his . condition visibly piteous, then turned again to Andre. “But in this ex- tremity, and since you so ungenerous- 1y insist, I shall have to tell you. God help me, .1 have no choice She will realize that when she knows. Andre my boy » He paused again, man afraid He set a hand on his godson's shoulder, and to his incpeas- ing amazement Andre-Louis per- ceived that over those pale, short- sighted eyes there was a film of tears “Mme. de Plougastel is vour mother.” Followed, for a long moment, utter silence. This thing that he was told was not immediately understood. | When understanding came at last| Andre-Louis' first impulse was to crv| out.
