and waved goodby to the group.

They came out under tho sparse

in tin- groups one might have Been

from tho stiadow of the Mine IlldgO und
from tho great district of West Au

ple wigs, swords und cocked huts or tho
coulcul bend covering then coming to
vogue in England, But sevo a fow on
whose fuceB sat a smirk of Tory smug
ness nil wore the same deudly look of
unger and concern.
Anne leaned forward] und watched
tho crowd with tiny cores of Ore in her
eyes. Broken bits or conversation wero
wafted to her.
"I hud looked to sei? better things of
Dunniore, but 'tis nil of a piece. We,
burgesses of Virginia! Wagged at like
so many school children, I' faith, and
sent home with a flea in tho ear! 'Tis

Such Bulien growllngs betokening

with snuff taking and derisive shrugs
of shoulders:
"Henry is mad. You heard what ho

forsooth? 'Tis a matter for a leech! As
if we had discipline, ships of war or
money. I tell you, bo will embroil us
all with such clatter. The governor
would bo perfectly Justified! In"? So
they passed on.
A smile, qul'/zlenl, disapproving, but
wondrous kind, wreathed tho corners
of the watcher'8 mouth as a tall, splen
did old man with aquiline nose and
sharp, gray eyes came down the street
leaning on the arm of a negro body
servant. Threescore years and ten bo
had passed one saw thai by the lines
in his face?and his frame was big and
wide. He was gaunt, I'awboued and
sour faced, and plainly though richly
dressed, wearing n large Jewel.
The girl's eyes rested smilingly on
the cocked hat, the grizzled wig, the
antique coat, with its square cut lapels
und shoulders rounded ?fter ?! fashion
of twenty years before, a.id then soft
ly and lovingly on tho rugged, master
ful face, every whit patrician
All her life she had loved this man
tho old baron of Greonwiiy Court. He
bud carried her at her christening. As
she saw him now, coming slowly, but
erect, bowing to salutations by the wti.v,
she thought again on what he I
have looked in bis youth bef ire the
French war, when ho bud strayed from
a London world of fashion, with a
heart sore by reason of a Jilting, they
said, to bury himself In the shadows
of the Blue Uidgo. He hud dreamed
of building himself a great manor house
with 10,000 acres, calling it Greenwuy
Court, and there living solitary. Jbit
a rough hunting lodge on a spur of the
mountain near Winchester was all that
ever came of it.
The girl watched him as he approach
ed, stopping now and again for a word.
Lach pause made him look more bot
and angry, und, seeing, she rdiook her
bond as if she < bid some naughty child.
As be neared bur, speaking \.i:'.i one
of the more richly dressed burgesses,
his bottled wrath burst out In a Hood,
lie raised his thorn Blick and shook It
at the building, choking with rage.
".Meet at the Haleie.h. gUllzooks!" he
shouted. "Whoso pelting i< this? Pat
rick Henry's. niuhV I thought as much!
A door stalker:" ho cried, tattooing with
his cane. "A good for naught bartend
er! Why, he used to bring mo my ale
when I passed Hanover Court House. A
coarse, danclug. fiddling, wench chuck
ing vagabond, I tell you! Iiis father,
the Justice, Is n good, sober country
gentleman, but little the son takes aft
er him. Come day, go (lay, Ood send
Sunday I Ho must marry the tavern
keeper's daughter!"
"My lord!'' Anne's voice rose sweet
and clear.
"And now because he mouths treason
as bold as brass and because ho wins
n dirty damage case against some tup'
penny parsons he sits in the burgesses
and riiles with gentlemen!"
"Lord Fairfax!" SllO was standing
upright in the conch.
"Virginia Is In a pretty ease to take
up any leather breeched Tom, Dick of
Harry, wagging his Jew."
"Lord Fairfax!"
"About the king's bUSluesst"
"I wait for you to ride with me."
The old man half turned, choked,
shook his cane again in the air; then,
seeing the girl, made her as slow and
courtly a bow as if be were in an as
sembly. Then he climbed Into the char
iot and sat down.
"Co and wait at the tavern, Joe,"
Anne said to Ids servant.
The baron took Anne's slender, cool
band In bis huge, bony, trembling one,
and they rode silently.
After awhile the fury had burned It
self out in that worn frame. "'Tis
naught I care for the rest of (hem. my
dear," he said, "but my boy Washing
ton is with their Infernal treasons, and
the Whigs will ruin him!"

Among the ItomnUS this feeling lound

lasted several days. We read that
"nations taking more or less their ori

1st of May as the special time for
fetes of the same kind. With ancients
and moderns alike It was an llisllnctlvo
rush into tin; Heids to revel in the bloom
Which was newly presented on the
meadows and the trees."
The barbarous Celtic populations held
a heathen festival mi this day, but wo

connected with flowers. It was culled

tires on the hilltops at night, Within
