At While Stouc.
The meinbers of tho South Carolina
Press Association gathered at White
Stone Lithla Spring? for the purpose of
drinking the waters and considering
tho situation last week. Moro pretty
girls were present than we have seen
at any of the association's meetings.
Tho cntortainment was all that could
bo desired. The hotel is a handsome
building at the top of a hill in the
woods. It is a cool place. The man*
agomont claims that all tho rooms are
cool, that ono is about as good as an
other and that all are outside rooms.
We had heard this before. It is a fact.
Ono oouid not find an uncomfortable
room among tho 110. Our o!d filcnd
Harri?, who is still young, has built an
elegant hotel. lc is well kept. One
gets all ono wants of good food.
The editors will meet at tho White
Stone again next year. They like the
waters and the Harris treatment.
This was tho first meeting which the
writer had attended in eight years.
Only two or three older members out
of some forty or litty wore presont In
those eight years the press of South
Carolina has distinctly gained In tho
character of its porsonnel. Always
there have been good and able men
among tho FOUth Carolina editors but
the number is increasing. Watson of
Greenwood, Toney of Johnston, Chris*
tlansen of Beaufort and J. K. Aull of
Newberry are young specimens of the
nowspapor making tribe in this state
who promise to become strong men in
tho business. These have already im
pressed themselves,
In every way the performances of
tho editors were creditable. We repeat
that tho Indies were especially charm
ing and the waters mighty goo^.

CHAPTER XVI.
a ii.vwk1su l'ahty.
PEW days after Brandon's
departute( Mary, with the
king's consent, organized a
small party to go over to
Windsor foi a few weeks during the
warm weather.
There were ten or twelve of us, in
cluding two chaperons, the old Earl of
Hertford and tho dowager Duchess of
Kent. Henry might as well have bent
along a pair of spaniels to act as chap
erons-It would have taken an army
to guard Mary alone?and to tell you
the truth our old chaperons needed
watching more than any of us. It was
scandalous. Each of them had a touch
of gout, and when they made wry
faces it was a Btandlug inquiry among
us whether they were leering at each
other or felt a twinge whether It was
their feet or their hearts that troubled
thorn.
Mary led them n pretty life at all
times, even at home in the palace, and
I know they would rather have gone
oiT with a pack of Imps than with us.
The Inducement was that it gavo thorn
better opportunities to be together, an
arrangement connived at by the queen,
I think, and they were satisfied. The
carl had a wife, but he fancied the old
dowager and she fancied htm, nnd
probably the wife fancied somebody
else, so they were all happy. It great
ly amused the young people, you may
be sure, and Mary said, probably with
out telling the exaet truth, that every
night she prayed Cod to pity and for
give their Ugliness. One day the prin
cess said she was becoming alarmed.
Their ugliness was so Intense she fear
ed It might be contagious and spread.
Then, with a most comical seriousness,
she added:
"Moil Dleu, Sir Edwin, what If I
should catch it? Master Charles would
not take me."
"No danger of tbnt, my lady. He Is
too devoted to see anything but beauty
In you, no matter how much you might
change."
"Do you really think so? He says
so little about It that sometimes I al
most doubt."
Therein she spoke the secret of Bran
don's success with her, at least in the
beginning, for there is wonderful po
tency In the stimulus of a healthy lit
tle doubt.
We had a delightful canter over to
Windsor, I riding with Mary most of
the way. I was not averse to this nr
railgomcnt, as I not only relished Ma
ry's mirth and Joyousness, which were
at their height, but hoped I might give
my little Lady Jane a twinge or two
of jealousy, perchance to fertilize her
sentiments toward me.
Mary talked and laughed and sang,
for her soul was a fountain of glad
ness that bubbled np the instant pres
sure was removed. She spoke of little
but our last trip over this same road,
and, as we passed objects on- the way,
told me of what Brandon bad said at
this place and that. She laughed and
dimpled exquisitely In relating how
she had deliberately made opportuni
ties for him to flatter her until nt last
he smiled in her face nnd lold her she
was tho most beautiful creature liv
ing, but that, after nil, "beauty was as
beauty did."
"That made me angry," said she. "I
pouted for awhile nnd two or three
times was on the point of dismissing
liini. but thought better of It nnd asked
him plainly wherein I did so much
amiss. Then what do you think tho
Impudent fellow said?"
"I cannot guess."
"He wald, 'Oh, there Is so much it
would tnke a lifetime to tell It.'
"This made mo furious, but I could
not answer, nnd a moment later he
raid, 'Nevertheless I should he only
too glad to undertake the task.'
"The thought never occurred to ei
ther of us then that he would he taken
at bis word. P.old? I should think ho
whs! I never saw anything like It! I
Lave not told yon a tenth part of what
ho said to me that day. lie said any
thing ho wished, and it .seemed that I
eoidd neither stop him nor retaliate.
Half the time I was angry nnd half
the time amused, but by the time wo
reached Windsor there never was n
girl more hopelessly and desperately in
love than Mary Tudor." And she
laughed as if it were a huge joke on
Mary.
f?ihc continued: "That day settled
mat tors with mo for nil time. I don't
know how ho did It. Vom, I do," And
she launched forth Into an account of
Brandon's perfections, which I found
somewhat dull, and so Would you.
We remained a day or two at Wind
sor und then, over the objections of our
chaperons, moved on to Berkeley cas
tle, where Margaret of Scotland was
spending the summer.
\YC had another beautiful ride up
the dear old TllOinoS to Berkeley, but
Mary hud grown serious and SAW none
of It.
On tho afternoon of the appointed
day the princess suggested a hawking
party, and we set out In tho direction
of the rendezvous. Our party consist
ed of myself, three other gentlemen
and three Indies besides Mary, .lane
did nbt go. I wns afraid to trust her.
She wept nnd with difficulty forced
llOPtfplf to say something nhotlt n head
ache, but the rest of the inmates of
tho enstle of course had no thought
that possibly they wero taking their
last look upon Mary Tudor.
TlllOk who ibis girl was we were
running away with! What reckless
fools wo wero not to have soon the ut
ter hopelessness, certain failure nnd
deadly peril of our net; treason black
ns Plutonian midnight. But Provldenco
scorns to have nn especial euro for fools,
whllo wise men are left to care for
themselves, and It docs look ns If safe
ty lies In folly.
We rode on and on, nnd nlthough 1
took two occasions In tho presence of
Others to urge Mary to return, owing
to the approach of night and threat
ened, fain, sho took hor own Head, as
everybody know sho always would,
and continued tho bunt.
.!uf?t before dark, ns wo noarod the
rendezvous, Mary nnd I managed to
ride ahead of tho party quite a dis
tance. At last we saw a heron rise,
nnd the princess uncapped her hawk.
"This Is my chance," sho said. "I
will run nwuy from you now nnd lose
mysolf. Keep them off my trnck for live
minutes, and I shnll he safe. Qoodby,
Edwin.. You and .lane are the only
you both conio to ua. Now, Edwin, I
shall tell you something: Don't let Jane
put you off any longer. Sho loves you.
She told nio so. Tbercl Qoodby, my
friend. Kiss her a thousand times for
me." And sho flew her bird and gal
loped after It at headlong speed.
Soon the princess was out of sight,
and 1 waited for the others to overtako
She /lew her bird and galloped after it.
me. When they cniuo up, I was greet
ed In chorus, "Where Is tho princess?"
I snid she had gone off with her hawk
and had left mo to bring them nfter
her. I held them talking while I could,
and when we started to follow took up
tho wroug scent. A short ride mndo
this apparent, when I came in for my
fuli share of abuse and ridicule, for I
had led them ngninst their judgment.
I was credited with being a blockhead,
when, In fact, they were the dupes.
Wo rode hurriedly back to tho point
of Mary's departure rtnd wound our
horns lustily, but my object had been
accomplished, and I knew that within
twenty minutes from the tlmo 1 last
saw. her she would bo with Brandon
on the road to Bristol, gaining on any
pursuit we could make at the rato of
three miles for two. We scoured tho
forest far and near, but of cottrsc found
no trace. After a time rain net In and
one of the gentlemen escorted tho la
dles home, while three of ua remained
to prowl about tho woods and roads all
night in a Bonking drizzle. Tho task
was tiresome enough for me, as it lack
ed motive, and when wo rodo into
Berkeley castle next day a sorrier set
of bedraggled, rain stained, mud cov
ered knights you never snw. You may
know the castle was wild with excite
ment. There were nil sorts of conjec
tures, but soon we unanimously con
cluded it had been the work of high
waymen, of whom tho country was
full and by whom the princess had cer
tainly been abducted.
The chaperons forgot their gout and
each other, and Jane, who was the
most affected of all, had a genuine ex
cuse for giving vent to her grief and
went to bed?by far the safest placo
for her.
What wns to bo done? First, we sent
a message to the king, who would
probably have us all flayed alive, a fenr
Which the chaperons shared to the full
est extent. Next, an armed party rodo
back to look again for Mary and, if
possible, rescue her.
The fact that I had been out the en
tire night before, together with the
email repute in which I was held for
deeds of amis, excused me from taking
part In this bootless errand, so again I
profited by the small esteem In which
I was held. I say I profited, for f
stayed at the castle with Jnne, hoping
to lind my opportunity In the absence
of everybody else. All the Indies but
Jane bad ridden out, and the knights
who had been with me scouring the
forest were sleeping, since they had not
my Incentive to remain awake. They
had no message to deliver, no duty to
perform for an absent friend. A thou
sand I Only think of it! I wished it
had been a million, and so faithful was
I to my trust that I swore in my soul
I would deliver them, every one.
And Jane loved nie! No more walk
ing on tho hard, prosaic earth now.
From this time forth I would fly; that
was the only sensible method of loco
motion. Mary had said, "She told me
so." Could It really be true? You
will at once see what an advantage
this bit of information wns to me.
I hoped that Jane would wish to fiee
me to talk over Mary's escape; so I
?out word to her that I was waiting,
und she quickly enough recovered her
health and came down. I suggested
that we walk out to a secluded little
summer house by the river, and Jane
wns willing. Ah, my opportunity was
hero nt last!
Jane's whole attitude toward nio was
changed, and she seemed to cling to
me in n shy, tipoonscloufl manner, that
was sweet beyond the naming, as the
one solace for all her grief.
After I had answered nil her ques
tions and had told her over and over
again every detail of Mary's flight and
had assured her that the princess was
nt that hour breasting tho waves with
Brandon on their hlghrond to paradise,
I thought It time to start myself In
tho same direction nnd to say a word
In my own behalf. So I spoko very
freely nnd told Jane what I felt and
what I wanted.
?'Oh, Sir Edwin," sho reapondod,
"let us not think of anything but my
mistress. Think of tho trouble she is
In."
"No, no, Jane, Lady Mary 1b out of
her trouble by now nnd Is as happy aa
a lark, you mny bo sure. Has sho not
won everything her heart longed for?
Then let us make our own paradise,
since we have helped them make theirs.
You have it, Jaue, Just wlthlu your
lips. Speak the word, nnd It will
chnnge everything, if you love me, and
I know you do."
Jane's head woa bowed, and she re
mained silent.
Then I told her of Lady Mary's mes
aago nnd begged, if sho would not
e.peak In words what I so longed to
hear, sho would at least tell It by al
lowing mo to deliver only one little
thousandth part of tho message Mary
hud sent, but sho drow away nnd said
she would return to tho castle If I
continued to behave In that manner. I
begged hard and tried to argue the
point, but logic seems to lose its force
in such a situation, and all I said
availed nothing/ .Tafle was obdurate
and was for soUip back at once. Her
pi ralstence w/sjboglmiliig to look like
obstinacy, oJftC soon grew so angry
t?HjLJ??itkcM|y peynlcsiou, bntjlelllg?
cred Mary's message, or a good part of
It at least, whether sho would or no,
and then sat back and asked ber what
fche was going to do about It.
Poor little Jane thought she was un
done for life. She sat there half pout
ing, half weeping, and said she could
do nothing about it; that she was alone
now, and if I, her only friend, would
treat her that way she did not know
where to look.
"Where to look?" I demanded. "Look
here, Jane; here. You might as well
understand first ns last that I will not
be trifled with longer, and that I intend
to continue treating you that way os
long aa we both live. I have deter
mined not to permit you to behave ns
you have for so long, for I know you
love me. Yau have half told me so a
dozen times, nnd even your half words
are winde truths. There is not u frac
tion of n lie In you. Besides, Mary told
mo that you told her so."
"She did not toll you that?"
"Yes, upon my knightly honor." Of
course there was but ono answer to
this - tear*. I then brought the battle
to close quartern at once, and, with my
arm uninterrupted at my lady's waist,
asked:
"Did you not tell her so? I know you
Will speak nothing hut the truth. Did
you not tell her? Answer me, Jane."
Tho fair bend nodded os sho whispered
between the hands that covered her
face:
"Yes. I?I?d-dld," and I?well, I de
livered the rest of Mary's message,
and that, too, without a protest from
Jane.
Truthfulness is a pretty good thing,
nfter all.
So Jane was conqnored at kist, and I
heaved n sigh os the battle ended, for
it bad been a long, hard struggle.
I asked Jane when wo should bo mar
ried, but she said site could not think
of that now?not until she knew that
Mary was safe, but she would promise
to be my wife some time.
We went back to the castle, and ns
we pnrted .Tono said timidly: "I am
glad I told you, Edwin. Glad it is
over."
Sho bad evidently dreaded It, but?I
was glad too. Very glad. Then I
went to bed.
