Do you love me well enough to cast your lot with mine As Lord Stuart Villiars breathed the nagic words*ke looked eagerly down nto Join Ormgby's flushed face, Vil- lars had a reputation as a lady-killer, a reputation he had taken no pains elther to establish or to refute. ‘On tho death ef his uncle, the old Earl of Arrbwfleld, Villars had come into the old man's e@tates and fortune and had recently run down to the Devon village of Deercombe to look over his Property, With him had come a Mr. Craddock, an old lawyer and mone: lender, who had handled the old Warl's property. Craddock Had a plan of his own in regard to this property. The old Earl ‘had, years before, marrie? a woman he , had soon doserted, but not before a ; daughter had been born, Were this Aaughter ora child of hers still living nd could be found, she would of course be heir to the Earl's property, Craddock, seeing a chance to mako money out of such a complication, was. hot on the trail of this missing hei Helping him was Mordaunt Royce, a, employed to bring rich spendthrifts int hig clutches, plots against him, came to Deercombe, he was at once the centre of rural in- terest and the target of matchmaking mothers, None of the many girls of the neigh- { borhood had angled for him so openly and #o persistently as had Emmelin and Julia Oliver, the two decided) plain daughters of Col, Oliver, a re- tired army officer who had settled: at Deercombe. The Oliver household fn. cluded, beside the Colonel and his daughters; his ward, Joan Ormsby, Joan..was ‘.tterly dierent from Ane others, being young, beautiful andgun- uged to the world's ways, Vitlairs, desplie his better judgment, felt in love with her at sight, To-day he had met her as .st/o was returning home, along the clés, from walk.
