CHAPTER a
I have inexcusably neglected Saprini
the laat todays, but she seems to flourish
notwithstanding and has established a
comfortable basis of intercourse with the
rattlesnakes. She is really a magnificent
creature, black as jet, nearly 0 feet long,
with a row of golden spots down each glis
tening side—•‘patines of bright gold" I
call them. She is beginning to recognize
me, 1 think, and when I approach her with
a saucer of milk she sometimes rears np
her head and eapands that carious mem
brane at the sides of the neck. It has
two black circles marked on it She

ible influence as well as nnder an

Hereafter I shall have my
queen of oobraa out of her cage on the
floor. 1 wonder what Sin firs will say to
her!
It is Mtore than a week, by the way,
since Sinfirs arrived here. 8o little occurs
in our monotonous round of life that this
event dMertrea to be recorded. I am per
haps the least inhospitable member of our
household, but even I, had I been asked
10 days ago whether it were possible for
ns to receive a stranger into the family,
and of all strangers a young lady, should
have answered “Nor with promptness
and decision. Mother indeed is s woman
of the world and profoundly versed in all
social etiquette and behavior, but “soci
ety” hospitality and cordiality are one
thing and the perennial kindliness that
makes a guest feel wholly and perma
nently at home is quite another thing.
Now, mother has many virtues. She is
aristocratic, dignified, courteous, elegant,
high tempered, headstrong and keen wit-
tod. Nay, she has strong affections, too,
in a way of her own, but 1 fancy her
meet partial admirers (foremost among
whom is her youngest son) would hardly
characterize her aa a warm hearted
woman.
The perfection of her manners instead
of putting people at their ease, ss perfect
manners are said to do, makes thmn sen
sible of their own comparative boorish-
ness. The faultless taste of her attire
causes the best dressed woman to seem
dowdy. This is no fault of my mother's.
It is simply a matter of temperament—
of the “sphere,” as the mystic sooial phi-
loeophets would tend it. There is some
thing about her that prevents her from
uniting with others. She has made this
same criticism on me, and possibly with
justice, though I think that in ray case
It is rather acquired than innate. Well,
this unassailable mother of mine has en
countered the exception that proves her
rule. She has m«t a person Who has elic
ited her cordiality. And a very genuine,
downright kind of cordiality it turns out
to be, none the worse for having lain so
king in the secret chamber of her heart
Vet I should never have Imagined that
Sinflre was the enchantress who would
have the key to that door. There la, for
all any one can see, absolutely no com
munity of feeling or experience between
mother and her.
John being at any rate a man is a less
remarkable case, but even be outstrips
anticipation. John has always seemed
to me the ideal of an English country
•quire. He would be jnst the man for
a master of foxhounds—a man able and
willing to browbeat everybody, to domi
neer and be choleric and yet to com
mand the hearty flood will of all, owing
to their recognition of hi^ unalterable
honeety and childlike kindnefes of heart
John did not learn much at school, and
he came to an untimely end in college,
but where I made one friend he made
twenty, and his truest friend was the
one to whom, at the outset of their ac
quaintance, he administered the most
terrible thrashing. John loves eatiitg
and drinking as much aa any man, but
he would starve himself for a week
rather than dock his mare of a peck of
nets or his dog of a biscuit
John has absurd, undemocratic theo
ries, and fancies himself the superior of
everyone he meets because he is the heir
of the Mainwarings, bnt there is trie per
son before whom he humbles himself,
and that is the English groom in his sta
bles. John would face a dosen footpads
with a heart of tn»t and Would probably
get the best of them, bnt in the presence
of a petticoat (an emboidered one at
least) Us Mg voice sinks to a quaver and
» rum bis, and Ms haughty (lanes quails
and falls. In view of this latter fact It
would not have been surprising it Sinflre
(who does wear an embroidered one) had
put him to flight, but her distinction con
sisted in having inspired him With a new
spirit, in virtue of which be is rapidly

Cousin Sinflre therefore must
[ some spell unknown to the com-
i of young ladies.
11 am myself not Insensible to
peculiar quality in her which 1 can
five to be very attractive to many or
to moat people. She is pretty, but it is
nqt that. She is intelligent, bnt it is not
that And she has high animat spirits
I vivacity, but neither is it
sole to analyse her It snytxjay can, tk-
oause toward her, as toward the rest of
mankind, I occupy the portion of an
outsider and disp.'^tsionste observer mere
ly. Moreover, 1 have a motive for mak
ing the analysis—that, in my role of gen
eral caretaker of tbs family, I most de
termine whether or not she is a fit and
proper person to become Mrs. Mainwar-
ing, and thus to relegate mother to tbs
position of dowager, for there is no
doubt that John will marry her if he
can, and after making all due allowance
for a waywardness of a maiden’s fancy
It would not do to build too confidently
on the probability of her rejecting a
generous hearted, fine looking, infatu
ated young fellow with flfiO.OOO a year to
his fortune. At all events 1 shall make
it my business to improve my acquaint-,
ancs with her, and the tact that she evi
dently regards me sa an inoffensive and
rather agreeable person renders the exe
cution of my design all the easier.
She came upon us as abruptly and on
expectedly as an asteroid ont of Infinite
space. We bad finished dinner more
thaa an hour before, and mother and 1
were sitting on the veranda enjoying the
evening breeze and fighting off an occa
sional mosquito. John, I presume, was
hobnobbing with Tom, the groom, in the
harness room. There was the sound of
carriage wheel* far down ths drive, ^ud
one of ths dogs barked. There was no
modfi, and it was too dark to see the car
riage until It was almost at hand. Then
It turned out to be a hack from the vil
lage railway station.
“It must be some person in answer to
my advertisement for a maid,” exclaimed
my mother in an undertone. “What
an extraordinary proceeding! Yon must
tell the people at the livery stable,
Prank, never to allow people to come
upon ns in this way.”
I said: “Apparently the person means
to take the place, Her trank is on be
hind.”
“That is sufficient,” mother replied.
T shall not take her!"
Meantime the hackman had descended
from the box and opened the carriage
door. A rather tall female figure got
out. At a sign from mother I went down
the steps of the veranda and met her. I
saw that She was young and well dressed.
She did not look like a “person."
“Are you Mr. MainwaringT she asked
in a deep but very agreeable voice.
“I am Frank Mainwaring,” I said
“Did yon wish to see my mother?"
“I have bronght her a letter from her
brother,” replied she. and she handed me
a sealed envelope.
“Do yon mean from Edward Forre-
rialT
“Yes.”
“Will yon come up and sit down?" 1
preceded her up tbe steps and gave ths
letter to mother, who must have over
heard what had passed and had risen to
her feet. “From Edward. What can
It her she murmured. Indeed we had
not heard frotn' my nnclt tdt 20 years
“Come Ifa and kit dawn,” she said to her
visitor In a somewhat agitated tone. “1
will read what yon have broughCKnd"—
"1 will stay here nntil yon have read
It,” returned the other, and she- turned
away, refusing the chair I proffered her,
and leaned * ■ un — '
da. As she
proachdflied
take
said,
tbs
was a U#ht to Mad the .
at a venture, "If! h*d known
coming, w> wofild have made
tions”
Bnt she interrupted me. ‘T took my
ehanoes,” she said. - “It la only H days
Since I left England. I brought the let
ter myself, because I didn't wish to trust
It to the mails, and it is all I have to
show for myself.'*
At this pbint mother reappeared In the
doorway. “My dear,” she said in an no-
certain voice, “come here where' 1 dan
see you. Are yon—are yon”
“1 am Sinfire,” said the other, advanc
ing with a certain stateliness and taking
my mother's hand iti hers." My mother
Was strangely moved. She gave an in
articulate cry, drew the girl Into her
arms and kissed her. It seems that her
brother—my uncle Edwarfl -waa dead.
He had died falTibndbO, leaving very Tit
tle property and fc daughter, his only
•nrriVlOg child. His wife had died years
before. There was no one In England
on whom he had any claim—he bad lived
upward of IS years in India—and he was
troubled in mind as to his daughter's fu-
a pillar of the veraq-
there the hackman ap-
;het be should
‘Not yet,” she
JP** 1—
“ mother bad
”/ knvt brought her a letter from her
brother" replied the.
Then he thought of his sister who had
married and gone to America, and be re
solved that his daughter should go t*
her. America would be a better (dace
for her than Europe, especially as there
era* to little money at her disposal. He
wrote on hie deathbed the letter which
■he had bronght us, in which he had rec
ommended her to Ms sister’s care. “She
is able to take her own part in the
world,” tbe letter said. “She wishes no
more than I to be a harden on yon. Bnt
you will know what things a girl like her
may and may not do in the great repub
lic, and I am assured that my eii
•dries my daughter wisely end

“I am Sinfirer I repeated the words
to myself as I followed her and ay moth
er to the drawing room. DM ever a
young English gentlewoman before this
have such a name iuflicted on her? Chris
tian name it surely could not be fenned.
nor could I call to mind any such in the
annals of paganism. Probably H might
be Hindoo, but we had no reason to sup
pose that my ancle had embraced the
faith of Brahma. It was decidedly an
ominous name so far u sound went, and
the yonng lady herself, thoogh.beautiful
and Inviting to look upon, was evidently
one of those beings who are not to be
fathomed at a glance, and whose secret
depths may contain something not in
dicated by ths gracious outward con
tours.
Bnt for the present she was rather
grave, rather taciturn and full of a gen
tle dignity. 1 could perceive that moth
er was making an energetic effort to
•place” her, by whlchTdo not mean that
she was trying to “pot her In her place’'
by any means, but she was endeavoring
to determine the social and personal
sphere In which she probably belonged.
Was she, in a word, less than Mrs. Main-
waring or greater Or an equal? Use
would be pretty safe In assuming tbat
she was not less. Farther than that It
would be rash to prophesy. She bad
force, intelfect, character and singular
individuality.
