Early poverty and Jack of guidance had driven her to degradation. Vainly she i strove to rise above her past. Every time she gained some selt- Fespecting position the story of her former life would find her and set her adrift again. At length she became a Red Cross nurse in _ the Franco-Prussian war. One evening as Mercy was tending the wounded in a French village ,) another Englishwoman came to the hut in which she was lodging. The “newcomer was Grace Roseberry, whose father had just died in Rome, and || who was on her way to England to take a position as companion with 9 distant relative, Lady Janet Roy, whom she had never seen. e Grace knew no one in England. She was alone in the world save for Lady Janet. She told her story freely to Mercy, showing letters and papers she wae carrying to England with her. When Mercy in turn told her own _ Pitiful little story Grace shrank from her in disgust. . While they were talking the Prussians began to bombard the village. A shell ,burat over the hut. Both girls were knocked senseless, When Mercy came to herself she saw Grace lying before her with a broken skull. . Then came an Irresistible temptation. Mercy longed a unspeakably for a life of respectability—a iife free from f the menace of her former career. This was her chance. By taking the dead woman's place she could get a new _..
