It drank the opal mists of tbo marshes, flecked the Heids into shadow haunted cloth of gold and so unrolled over the old ''middle plantation," where a round century before Bacon and his men had token the oath against Eng land, a drowsing, yellow mid-May nft ternoon. Two quickened rivers, like silver gir dles unclasped, wound through tho lowland, from whero phantom-fur lay the shadows of pines against the color Washed line of sky, sharp edged and biaVk, ln gTgantlo pobited froiuis. The rivers rolled broadly to tho sea, hold ing between them a green valley sweet with the warm perfumes of leaf and flower, and this valley folded to Us heart Wllllntnsburg, the gay little cap ital. The teaL end mallard that winged over from York to James looked down thereon and saw a single broad thor oughfare, shaded by poplars and mul berries, with William and Mary col lege at one end and the new capltol at the other. Straggling streets of wide porched houses bordered with gar dens debouched upon this, and spread* ,lng away in all directions, like gathered ribbons, by league long plantation and through broken forest, went tawny, twisting roads. Along one of these roads, by clumps of rustling laurel, came a great coach with green body and brown cloth, bear ing the arms of the TlllotSOUS of Glad* den Hall. A black body servant rode behind it n-horscback. Tl?e couch, which rolled thumping Ojml swinging ponderously where the way was rugged, pleasantly and light ly where the road was smooth, held " matron nnd a slender girl. The latter was of that age when nature paints with her richest brush. Her hair was a wave of russet lights, with shadows of warmer brown. Her face, rose stained, was the texture of a rose. Her mouth, below serious eyes of blended blue, gave a touch of willfulness. If there was lntontness on the brow, so was there languor in the lips, red, half ripe, the upper short and curved to smile. She was all raptures?all sap phire nnd rose gold tigalnst the dark cushion. Both :is they rode were silent, look ing out through either wide window upon the warm, scent steeped glimpses of the way. All along were waving reaches of wheat, where the poppy flung Its wrinkled splash of red, or acres of young growing tobacco where in sweating slaves toiled listlessly, their songs woven with the undertone of the sluggish sin am, slashed by reviling oaths und whip crackings of a bearish overseer. At the dusty edges of the rond Ihlstlu and wild honeysuckle Bern tabled for I heir breath, and cow slips went spinning yellow ribbons. It was n slumberous land swathed In a tremulous haze of heat and n wash of sun. "Anne," Raid tho matron at length, withdrawing her gaze from the win dow. "Yes, Aunt Mildred." "Do you Intend to treat that boy bad ly V The girl was silent, gazing across tho fields, watching tho birds' slender flash ings l.n the olive hollows. "You haven't answered my ques tion." "What question?" "Do yon Intend to treat that boy bad ly?" "What hoy?" Inquired Anne, with a sweetness that boded other things. "Francis Byrd." "I intend to treat him as I always have no better, nor worse." "The world has changed since my time," reflected Mrs. Tillotson. "Maids .'denied themselves lucky to have one Mlant and wasted small time in wed ding. Last winter 1 thought It had been Captain Jarrat. Now he Is left for Molly Byrd to make eyes at. Tho way that woman acts! So I suppose l\ will be with Francis." "Ix?t them cease arranging thlnge for mo, then!" cried Anne. "1 will not bo put up and bargained for. I will bo the subject of no family councils. I will wed when and whom I please." Her aunt looked a bit startled at the outburst. "Of course, of course," she assented mildly. "But you don't please. You'ro eighteen" two years older than I was when I married your uncle. Francis Byrd of Westover Is the pick of them Oil." "ne is a mere boy." Anne's tone held n growing impatience. "Ho is not too young," went on Mrs. Tillotson, "to lake stock of all you say. But remember, dear, that he is to wear the royal colors now. 'Tis all well enough for you and mo to bo open Whigs. Wo don'I have to do any outh taking, and thoy don't hang us. But king's men cannot be so free of tongue." A lino turned upon her. "I I;now the rest of It!" she cried. "Francis in spending time at Albertl's rooms my fault. Krauels Is making a friend of Patrick Honry?my fault! Fruficlfl has a mind of his own, hasn't he? If he Chooses so, well and good. Aonl Mildred, there will be u day when any Virginian will be proud to be a friend of I'at rid. Henry I" The lady Shook her head not unkind ly. "Your mother over again, Anne," she said. "Loyal and true. Ah, wo!" She was silent, but Anne knew of what site was thinking. Alter a time she put her hand over and touched the girl's. "Keep your friendships, child, if you like" tin in." she said. "I have naught again-i Mr. Henry. I like him, and the colonel values him most high ly. Only llyrd is a good hid; too good to he hurt." "Here Is the shop," Anne said pros Ontly as (lie coach Stopped before tho sign of .1 mercer. "I shall drive awhile and return for yon in an hour. Won't you take JolUl U.lO Daptlsl with yon and buy thai (urban for Mammy F.va line? What color did she want, John the Baptist?" she called to her body servant. Tho lank, loosu Jointed, strapping lig uro of solemn countenance who sat a sorrel behind (ho coach, spurring along side tho window, broke out In Wide itttijet. "Mammy \s;..|t toV maz'reen blue, Mis' Anne. Dal wbut I hen Mi her sijy." ".Now, don'l no over the hour," Mrs. Tillotson reminded as her niece bowled away, and she sighed as she looked after her. The Coach had entered WilllnniKhurg from the n<prth and now turned Into Duke of Gloucester street, where stood An embowered mansion, the town bouM I of'the Byrds of Westover, iure at tin? gate Hut tor oil two girls, wi?o waved hands .nut culled eagerly to the solitary occupant. "Anno, A?no!" they cried as the coachman drew u;> at the horse block. "Conio nnd t?*I 1 iiwhat you uro to ' wear to the ball tomorrow." "I don't know, Betsy." replied Anne, Jumping down. "l'Himw!" rn tiled Mistress By rd. "Just as If wo believed that, when you know you will be looked ?t uioro than the now arrived Lady Dunmorel" Ann:> kissed Hie youtiger one? Paulina Cabcll, slight, oHvo eyed, a pretty, pout ing slip of ii girl, wriggling to bo grown up. "Your eyoH nrb red, sweetheart," said she. "I buvo Uoeu reading 'Lady Julia Mandovlllo,'" Pattllua complained. "I never cried so In my life reading u nov el. The tale Is beautiful, but tho end ing Is horrid!*' "You'll stay to supper, of course?" asked Betsy, linking an ana In Anno'ti. "Brother Frank will fetch you home." "Not today." "Mother will want to tell you about Prank's royal commission," pursued Betsy.1 "Come In for n moment. Do." But the mistress of Westover was otherwise occupied. In fact, tho girls entered the wide, cool hall to Und a storm lowering. Mrs. Byrd was not only young, pret ty, a second wife and the possessor of a husband who was one of the govern or's council, but she wuh conscious of nil these things. Her husband did not remember ns of ten as did she that the gay colonel, his father, bad been bosom friend of the learned Charles Boyle In England and a fellow of tho Boyal society. She re mlndcd him frequently of tho fact that the old wit had been n scholar and had left to Westover, whore he lay under a monument In the garden, the best pri vate library in the colonies, not even excepting that of Mr. John Bordley of Maryland, r.nd n garret full of writings. Hh portrait hung there, a face as clear and as beautiful an a woman's, framed in a curling peruke vi the time of Queen Ann.-. As for the present master of West over, much to her Irritation, he eared little more for sieht of Si. James than for the heaped up manuscripts In the garret. P.P contented himself with sit Hug in tl'.c .?? mull chamber nt \Vil? ll;iir.s?mrg and riding ?fter foxes at Wos'.ovor, when his low?. !-ft him. Now Mis. Byrd, consciously impres sive. leaii"d ucninsl the white paneling in a posture which showed her plump figure to advantage. " "; Is high 11 sue," she was paying, *ottilsi? the yellow point do venlse nt Ijer throat, "that Francis be spoken to about it. (Come In, Aune.)" The colonel, bowing as gnllantly to Anne as ids gouty leg propped on a phnlr would permit, shifted his pow ?Jerod wig in so mo discomfort. 'frank will get no harm from Pat vU*i Henry," be said. Be Is too sen sible." "Mayhap you call It no hann, sir," persisted Mrs. Byrd, "to set your son? you, ii member of the council?bobbing with that shiftless wag. Sooth, then, 1 il"! The malt bugs of the tnvern nro Iii; betters, (No, don't go, Anne.) Fran cis is dilft about him, sir. And tho boy's royal commission Just come. Oh, 'tis loo badt" Colonel Byrd straightened his rutllos carefully. "You ^'o to the ball, of course, Anne?" lie aski d. But his wife was not to be shut off. "Small preferment," tho huly went on, "will Francis get from Lord Dun more !f he continues. The governor keeps himself Informed. Every one knows that Patrick Henry Is the very front of all these rebel doings. (Yes, you need give mo no look, Anno. "ITs tho word I meant to use. Rebel doings! ncoei doings:) Ann tor my son ?a Willing to"? "Zo'Mds! Your son is n Byrd, ma'am!" This from tho colonel. "For my son lo assoelato with a low country demagogue, half the time dressed In bucks!;.as like that shabby burgess from Louisa county you brought to dinner last week, and to go to his crnzy meetings nt the Halelgh. 1 thought his stay abroad would have wetmcd Frank of that. That and the commission. Tut, no I Ho comes home talking tho gibberish of thnf' mealy mouthed C harles Fox that he learned In his dreadful London club. I look yet to see bim put off his king's uni form and disgrace us all." "PshawI" said Colonel Byrd, never theless uneasily. "Frank's all right. The young blade will take to the army like a duck to water. Zooksl There Is no harm In the Apollo room. Jefferson is steady enough, nnd he is ever there." "Tom Jefferson 1" ejaculated tho lady. "Think yon be is much better? A free thinker! He and Henry are pitch and toss. La! A squeak of a fiddle, nnd both of them will dance. Jefferson used to be gay enough with It nt Cov ernor Fnuqulcr's musicklngs. Every body knows he spends hnlf his tlmo when ho Is In WllJIainshurg at the rooms of that papist actor Albertt, nnd so does Henry. I marvel If Francis does not know him too." The colonel sighed. If the truth must be told, the same uneasiness was In his soul. But, being masculine, he did not udmit it to his wife. "I'll lay n crown you'll dance with Mnster Henry tomorrow night, Anne," volunteered Betsy wickedly. Anne was looking through the largo window, sashed with crystal glass, nnd there were little blue sparks snap ping In her eyes. She made no reply, but under her skirt edge her red slip per, like a burnished tongue, went tap ping tho polished door. "I should think, Anne," remarked Mrs. Byrd, with acidity, toying with a rose Jar from which the Duke of Cum berland had once plucked a bud, "that you would have more regard for your bringlog Up. I never hnd to be re minded of mine." Mrs. Byrd never looked younger or mpre handsome than when remember ing this. In her soul the soothing and OVOr present COIlSClOUSncSS of being born a Willing of Philadelphia was em balmed like u fly In amber. It' she could have bad her way she would have had tljO inasler of Westover din lug at 4, llko the CadwaInders nnd Bhlppens and tho rest of the Church of England set there. "A TlllotSOll," she continued rnplly, "dancing tit the burgesses' ball with the husband of a tavern girl!" Anno turned, her eyes glowing tho COlor of burning brandv. "And why no! V" she cried. "Why not? Mr. Henry Is a burgess of Vir ginia!" "Aye, a burgess - from the woods! A lick dish for the country votes!" "Molly!" Her husband's tone was gathering remonstrance. "He Is a gentleman I" Anno dared, With wralh dark eyes. "A courteous, honorable gentleman! A'td he hns more In Jils head than any four of them together." "Highly tlghtyl" exclaimed Mrs. Byrd.

The breed of a bird. The latest fashion of pinchbeck shoo buckles from Anmipollft." Mrs. Byrd sniffed. "A pity ho mnrri *d the tavern keep er's daughter!" she said. "Yon mlghl have bad him and his buckskin breech es!" Betsy laughed at this. "Bless mo!" she sighed. "What a blow thai had been for Captain Jnrrut!" Then, repeuj Ing. she ran after Anne as she swi pt grandly out nnU threw an arm around her neCk. "l>on't be angry, dear," sho said. "An you are, I shall feel all to blame!" Paulina was still at tho gate. "H'Astc!" she called under her breath. "Here comes Mr. Jefferson." "Lack!" said Betsy, "t'peak of the dev I mean?there Is Mr, Henry with Mm." "I marvel Mr. Jefferson likes him!" quoth Anne, a gentle sarcasm rufiling her nngcr. Mistress By I'd did not note the tone. "Aye," she responded, "so do I. lie Una a tongue, though. Father says it has made more trouble for the colony than all the exclusion acts put together. He looks a very uncouth creature," she added. "See that moth eaten hunting cap and those horrid leather clothes!" This was In a low tone, for the ap proaching men were come within ear Shot and were even then dolling head gear to them. The two were vastly dissimilar. One, the younger, was clad In dark velvet. Wore loco and a sword. His line face was pale with the look of the scholar. Tho other, walking by bis side, with saddlebags over bis arm thrust through the bridle of a lean roan nag, wore hunting dress, with a small cap. He looked to be turned thirty-live. Ills face was keen and sallow, with Kornau profile, and his eyes were deep set under overhanging brows. For tho rest ho moved his spare body awkwardly, SlQUClltly, with a rawiKined stoop of shoulders, as one at happier ease In the Woods than the street. Both bowed gravely as they came up, the faco of the horseman searching the group ami brightening suddenly with a Hash of smile at sight of Anne. Ho passed on, but the younger turn ed back, nothing loath for a moment of chat. "Gossiping of the ball tomorrow, I'll swear!" be laughed. "Are the furbe lows all chose?" "Tell us, Mr. Jefferson," cried Belay "vrd. "Have you seen the new come beauties? They say Lady DlUimore is lovelier than her daughters." "I have boon away for a fortnight," he answered, "and cannot say. 1 would I could say 'Aye,' " ho added humor ously; "'twould relievo much anxiety." " 'Tis the dreadful llllCCrtnlllllCSS of you masculine lovers," Anne countered archly, "that keeps us poor maids in terror." *''Tis said," put in Paulina, ' that his excellency will publish n new codo for tho palace etiquette. Think of It! Just like a real court! There Is to be a Cham* borlnin, and all gentlemen uro to un bonuet beforo tho portraits of the king and quoen!" The young man looked dark. "Would he kept to his court otlquottol" ho ex claimed. "See you tho green yonder?"
