Mary kept tip her show of affection
and docile obedience for a week or two '
. until she thought Henry's suspicions !
were allayed, and then, after having |
done enough petting and fondling,, as
she thought, to start the earth itself
a-n:oving?as some men are foolish
enough to say it really does?she began
the attack direct by putting her arms
about the king's neck and plteously
begging hlni not to sacrifice her whole
life by sending her to France.
Iler pathetic, soul charged appeal

cruel. IIo was sliuply an animal so
absorbed in himself that he could not
fool for others.
"Oh. It Is out at last!" he said with
a laugh. "1 thought all this sweetness
must have been for something.. So the
lady wants her Brandon and doesn't
want her I .on is. yet is willing to obey
her dear, kind brother? Well, we'll
take her at her word and let her obey.
You may its well understand, once and
for all. that you are to go to France.
You promised to go decentljT if I would
not cut off that fellow's head, and now
1 tell you that if I hear another whimper
from you off It comes, and you will
go to France too."
This brought Mary to terms quickly
enough. 11 touched her one vulnerable
spot?her love.
"1 will go; I promise it ngnin. You
shall never boar another word that no
harm shall eonio to him?to him." And
she put her hands over her face to conceal
her tears as she softly wept.
"The day you sail for France Brandon
shall go free and shall again have
his old post nt court I like the fellow
as a good companion, and really believe
you arc moro to blame than he."
"I am all to blame, and am ready this
B day to pay the penalty. I am at your
disposal to go when and where you
choose," answered Mary most pathetically.
k.' I'oor, fnlr Proserpina, with no kind
mother Pemeter to help her. The
ground will soon open, and Pluto will
have his bride.
That evening Cavendish took mo
aside and said his master, Wolsey,
wished to speak to mb privately at a
convenient opportunity. So when the
bishop left his card table an hour later
I threw myself in his way. IIo spoke
gnyly to me, nud we walked down the
corridor arm in arm. I could not imagine
what was wanted, but presently
it came out: "My dear Cnskodcn"?had
v I been one for whom he could have had
any use I should have grown fluspl ?
clous?"my dear Cnskodcn, I know I
can trust you; especially when that
? which I have to say is for the happiness
of your friends. I am sure you
will never name me In connection with
the suggestion I am about to make, and
will use the thought only as your
own."
I did not kuow what was coming,
but gave liim the strongest assurance^
of my trustworthiness.
"It Is this; Louis of France Is little
IDeiter man n nena man. iving tienry,
perhaps, is not fulljr aware of this, and
if he is he lias nevor considered the
probability of his speedy death. The
thought occurred to mo that although
the princess cannot dissuade her brother
from this marriage, she may be able,
In view of her ready aud cheerful compliance,
to extract some virtue out of
her Bore necessity and Induce him to
iff promise that in case of the death of
' Louis she liersell shall choose her second
husband."
"My lord," I replied, quickly grasping
the point. "It is small wonder you rule
this laud. You have both brain and
"I thank you, Sir Edwin, and hope
that both may always he at the serv?
ice of you and your friends."
I gave the suggestion to Mary as my
ftwn, recommending that she proffer
|ifr request to the king in the presence
pf Wolsey, and, although she had .little
faith or hope, she determined to try.

AA'itliln n dny or two nn opportunity v
offered, and she said to Henry: "I am
ready to go to France any time you ''
wish, and shall do it decently and will- *
Ingly, but if I do so much for you, l!
jy,u imKiii in icasr promise '
me tliat wlien King Louis is dead I J
may marry whomsoever I wish. He ^
will probably live forever, but let me s
have at least tlint hope to give me wbut
cheer it may while I suffer." l:
The ever present Wolsey, who was
standing near and heard Mary's peti- j
tion. interposed: "Let me add my pray- |
or to that of her highness. We must
give her her own way in something."
Mary was such a complete picture of n
wretchedness that I thought at the
time she had really found a tender spot ^
in Henry's heart, for he gave the prom- ^
ise. Since then I have learned, as you j
will shortly, that it was given simply
to paell'y the girl, and without any
intention whatever of its being kept, *
but that, in case of the death of King
Louis, Ilenry intended again to use
his sister to his own advantage.
To*be a beautiful princess is not to s
enjoy the bliss some people imagine. 1
The earth is apt to open at any time *
and Pluto to snatch her away to?the
Lord knows where.
Mary again poured out her soul on F
paper?a libation Intended for Brandon. 8
I made a dozen attempts in as many
different ways to deliver her letters, b
but every effort was a fnilure, and this 11
missive met the fate of the others. De
Longuoville kept close watch on his d
master's rival and complained to Hen- ^
ry about these attempts at communion- *
tion. Henry laughed and said he would *
see that they were stopped, but paid
no more attention to the matter. n
If Mary, before her interview with J
Ilenry, had- been averse to tlio French *
marriage, she was now equally anxious
to hurry it on, and longed to go v
upon the rack in order that Brandon ?
might be free. lie, of course, objected R
as strenuously as possible to the pur- t
chase of bis life by her marriage to
Louis, but ills better judgment told 11
him?in fact, had told him from the b
first?that she would be compelled v
eventually to marry the French king, "
and common sense told him if it must ^
be she might as well save his life at b
the same time. Furthermore, lie felt a J
certain sense of delight in owing his t
life to her, and knew thnt the fact that n
she had saved him, that her sacrifice v
had not all been in vain, would make b
it easier for iter to bear. ti
The most beautiful feature of the ro- '!
lations between these two lovers was r
their entire faith In each other. The k
way of their true love was at least not
roughened by cobblestones of doubt, 1
however impassnblo it was from moun- o
tains of opposition. C
My inability to deliver Mary's letters 1
did not deter her from writing them, e
and as she was to be married in a few
days?De Lomrueville to act as Droxv?
she devoted her entire time to her let- 0
ters nnd wrote pages upon pages, which
she left with me to be delivered "after
death," ns she called her marriage.
At this time I was called away from
court for n day or two, nnd when I returned
and called upon Brandon at the
Tower I found him whistling and singing,
apparently ns happy ns a lark, j
"You heartless dog!" thought I at n
first, but I soon found that he felt more
than happiness?exaltation. c
"Ilnve you seen her?" I asked. k
"Who?" As If there were more than k
one woman in all the world for him. *
"The princess." v
"Not since I left her ut Bristol." ii
I believed then, nnd bellevo now,
that this was a point blunk falsehood,
a very unusual thing for Brandon, but J i
for some reason probably necessary in t
this case.
There was nn expression iu his face 1 o
which I could not Interpret, but he 1

scrap of paper that lay upon the table, ! ^

When I arrived at the palace and
saw Mary, what was my surprise to
And her as bright and Jubilant as I had
left IJrandon. She, too, laughed and
sang and was so happy that sho lighted
the wholo room. What did it all
mean? There was but one explanation.

ti the Tower under guard both day
nd night, and Mary as closely guarded
11 the palace, 1 could not see any way
f escape for cither of them, nor how
hey could possibly have come together.
.Brandon had not told me, I supposed,
or fear of being overheard, and Mary,
It hough she had the opportunity, was
qunlly nonconnnunicative, so I had
ocourse to Jane upon the first occuion.
She. by the way, was as blue
nd sad faced as Mary was Joyous. I
sked her if the princess and Brandon
ad met, and she sadly said: "I do not
now. We went'"down to London yeserday,
and as wo returned stopped
t Bridewell House, where we found
he king and Wolsey. The princess
!?ft the room, saying she would return
n a few minutes, and then Wolsey
rent ouf, leaving mo alone with the
ing. Mary did not return for half an
tour, and she may have seen Master
trandon during that time. I do not
indcrstaud how the meeting could
avc occurred, but that is the only time
he has been away from me." Here
lane deliberately put her head on my
houlder and began to weep piteously.
"What is the trouble?" I asked.
She shook her head: "I cannot, dare
lot. tell yon."
"Oh. but you must, you must!" And
insisted so emphatically that she at
ength said:
"The king!"
"The king! God in heaven, Jane; tell
io quickly!"
When urged, Jane said between her
obs: "lie tried to kiss me and to?misrent
me when Wolsey loft the room at
tridewc'll House. I may luivo been
isod to detain him while Mary met
luster Brandon; but, if so, I am sure
he knew nothing of it."
"And what did you do?"
"I struggled away from him and
natched this dagger from my breast,
riling him that if lie took hut one step
oward nie I would plunge it iu my
icart, and lie said I was a fool."
"God keep you always a fool!" said I
irayerfully. "How long lias this beou
;oing on?"
"A month or two. But I have always
icon able to run away from him. He
ius been growing more Importunate of
ale, so I bought a dagger that very
ay and had it not one hour too soon."
Vitli this she drew out a gleaming lltle
weapon that liashed iu the rays of
he candle.
This was trouble in earnest for ine,
nd I showed it very plainly. Then
ane timidly put her hand in mine for
he llrst time In her life niul niurniurcd:
"We will ho married, Edwin, if you
rish, before we return from France,"
ihe was glad to fly to me to save lierelf
from Ilenry, and I was glad even
o be the lesser of two evils.
As to whether my two friends n\et or
ot that day at Bridewell I cannot say,
lit I think they did. They had in somo
fay come to an understanding that
ghtened both their hearts beforo
lary left for France, and this had
eon their only posstblo opportunity,
ane and I were always taken into
heir confidence on other occasions, but
s to this meeting, if any there was,
re have never been told a word. My
ellef Is that the meeting was conrived
by Wolsey upon a solemn promse
from Brandon and Mary never to
eveal It, and If so they have sacredly
opt their word.
On the 13th of August, 1,114, Mary
Tutor, with her golden hair falling
ver her shoulders, was married at
Ireenwlch to Louis de Valols, De
