Even now, as I read it again, it is difficult to believe that it was not an honest confession from the heart—and yet, at the close, the name that is signed is false “Lucien Guillet.” Here is a bit of that letter: “I am a litfle worried, my pretty little girl, and so I want to creep close to your heart to seek consola- tion, Yesterday I noticed in your lovely eyes, so, profound, a cloud of chagrin, and as we were alone, it must have been I who caused it. Did a word, a phrase of mine pain you? Perhaps your sadness comes from the thought that I cannot bring you the unsullied tenderness of a young man. Ah, your beautiful soul de- serves it, and gladly would I have | done so, had it been possible. But we promised cach other to be always quite frank, and I will tell you every- thing you may wish to know about myeelf, or which it may be in your interest to know, But I beseech you not to hurry me. By my nature, by my life of solitude, both moral and material, I am an isolated man, re- served in everything. Yet you may still find in me sentiments that are; new and fresh—more, perhaps, than you imagine. Only do not expect too | much all at once, and I will endeavor ; to make up for what hard experience has taught me by shielding you from all the trials and worries lying in wait for you, ‘Perhaps another reason of your sadnegs is the thougbt that I have | not the same age as you. Alas!
