our presence there. Lermix was due
to arr^rt* imnV fnomenf. T realized
that great Issues were at stake, that
the man would never cease In hla ab

tempts to get hold of Jacqueline. Only
when I had returned her to her fa
tier's house would I feel sufe froth
Mm.
After dinner 1 had some conversa
tion with one of the hotel clerks. I
discovered that St. Boniface was
little known, the only occupants of
those purts being trappers and Indians.
“You could hire dogs and a sleigh
• at At. Boniface for wherever, your dual
destination i|s,” he said, “because the
dog mall has been suspended- owing to
the new government mall boats, ami
their stetvha are idle. I think Captain
Dubois would take you on his boat na
far as that point, and 1 believe he
makes his next trip fn a couple of
days"
He gave me the captain's address,
and I resolved to call on him early the
following day and make arrangements.
I took Jacqueline for a stroll on the
terrace, and while we walked I pon
dered over the “problem. Jacqueline
was very quiet, and I wondered what
she remembered. I dreaded always
• wakening her memoryr lest. with that
of her home, came that other of the
dead man. ^ ,
Our rooms were on the side of the
Chateau facing the town, and us we
passed beneath the arch I saw two
men ktandlng no great distance uway
and watching us. It seemed to me.
One wore the cassock of a priest,
and T could have sworn that he was
Per* Antoine; the other resembled the
auspicious sti anger. As we drew near
they moved behind a pillar. Thus, In
exorably, the chase drew near. . * “
My suspicions received confirmation
a few minutes later, for we had hardly
reached our rooms, and I was. In fact.

standing nt the door of Jacqueline’s,
bidding her good night when n bellboy
came along the passage and announced
that the gentleman whom I was ex

I said good night to Jacqueline ami

thought It wotild. be the stranger hut

I invited him to enter and he came

hcaij, looking direfully at me.
“Well, monsieur, w hat is'the pur
pose of this visit?” I asked.
“To tell you,” he thundered, “that
you must givT up the unhappy woman
Who has accompanied you here.”
“That Is precisely what I intend to
do,” I answered.
__ “To rue,” he said. “Her husband—’’
I felt my brain whirling. I knew
mow that I had always cherished a
hope, despite the ring—what a fool I
had been! r
“I married them,” continued Fere
Antoine. _
"Where is he?” I demanded.
He appeared disconcerted. I gath

"This is a Catholic country," he
went on more quietly. .."There is nu
divorce; there can be none. Marriage

I placed my hand on his shoulder.
“I will not hear 'any more,” I sald.~

At the Foot of the Cliff.
The next nfternoon I went to Paul
street anti found M. Dubois nt home.
When I explained that I wanted to
secure two passages to St. Boniface
his brows contracted. '
"IMen! So you,* too. are going to
the Chateau Duchalne!" he exclaimed.
"Is there not room for two,more on
the boat of Captain Duhatnel?”
"Why do you suppose that I am go
ing to the Chateau Duchalue?" I in
quired angrily. . "
He -flared up too. "1 Mahle !*’ he burst
out, "Do you suppose all Quebec doe*
not know what Is In tiie w4«d? Bt.t
since you are au lgitornnt, monsieur, I
will enlighten you. Let us suppose
that the affairs of M. Charles I>u-
ehnine hnve Interested a gentleman of
business and politics whom we Will
call M. Leroux—Just for the sake-of
giving him a name, you understand."
he resumed, looking at me maliciously,
“And this M. I>eroux Imagines that
there is more than spruce timber to be
found on the seigniory. Blen, but con
sider further that this M. Leroux Is n
mole, as we call our politicians hero.
It would not suit him to appear, openly
In such an enterprise?
