CHAPTER VI.
I Nail Gwynne'a Mirror. ""'
With the approach of tie twehty-
sflrst- of the month; -which IB to say
the seventh day following Cameron's
receipt of the second letter, I ob
served in him a growing nervous rest
lessness, which with praiseworthy, ef
fort he was evidently striving to over
come. Of my visit to the red giant
and the tragedy -which followed it, he
was, of' course, informed; as he had
been of the incident in the wood, in
cluding the finding of the - bullet
pierced piece of canvas. "" Every
thing, save only that Evelyn was the
discoverer-of the portrait remnant
which I . thought best wider the cir
cumstances to keep secret was told
to him in detail, and with all the cir
cumstantiality necessary to an intel
ligent discussion of even the minutest
point. .-
. .My description of Murphy . elicited
from him a recollection. He remem
bered having seen the man once. It
a -was on the Fourth of July. Evelyn
and Mts. Lancaster, Cameron's house-
. keeper, had accompanied Cameron to
what is called "The Port 'of Missing
Men," . a resort for motorists, On the
summit of Tlticus mountain. They
had lunched there and were returning
by a, route which-took them over a
succession of execrable roads, but
through some of the most ' glorious
scenery in the whole state of Con
necticut For a while they had been
following a stBeam, -willow-girt) that
went babbling down over a rocky bed
which at Intervals broke the waters
Into a series of falls and cascades. At
the foot of one of these they had
stopped the car and alighted for a
better view, and so had come upon
the unexpected. "
Seated upon ' a great bowlder, his
easel planted between the stones of
the stream's shallows, was a red
headed, red-bearded CoIobbub, in a
oiled suit of khaki and a' monstrous
straw hat such as Is worn by harvest
ing farmers. - Cameron told me that
all three of them made bold to peep
over the painter's : shoulder at his
work, and then, though It was of -the
most mediocre quality, to shower him
with laudatory and ' congratulatory
phrases.
"I can fancy how he thanked you,"
I broke in, smiling. . . "I suppose he
aid something very rude."- '
' "He said nothing at all. He simply
topped painting, and turning, fixed
his eyes upon me. It was as if he
aw no other one of us. He seemed
to be making a careful appraisement
of my every feature. -.After a-mo.
ment it grew embarrassing, and
though I did .not resent it feeling
rather that we, ourselves, had been
In the wrong I very5- speedily with
drew. To my surprise he rose from
his stone seat; and, palette and
brush in handy followed us "up' the
little acclivity te the road, watching
in silence, until we got back into our
car, and wheeled away." . , ...
"Did yod gather from his inspection
that be recognized you, or thought he
recognized yout" I asked.
"I gathered only that he meant to
be insufferably rude," was Cameron's
answer.
"And you have never seen him
slnceT"
, - "Never." .
; "Ho has evidently seen you. He
spoke of the Russian wolf-hounds
that go about with you."
Cameron mads no' response.
"Well," I added. In a tone meant to
be reassuring, "I think we need have
little fear of a continuance of this
singula method of anqoyano?.

Mr hope of potting Cameron 'at
ease, however, was not rewarded. He
continued to exhibit signs' of an al
most constant apprehension. There
was, i. Indeed, a sympathy-stirring
pathos about the nervous disquiet of
this man, usually so Impenetrably
self-contained. And at moments, in
spite of me, a suspicion gripped and
held that he had not been entirely
frank;-that somewhere in his past
there ' was " something ' 1 unrevealed
which might serve as a clue, if not
an explanation, to the present But
these doubts of him were . always
transitory. I : ,t y -
The twenty-first of September fell
that year on Monday. - My office de
manded my presence, but I arranged
affairs as well as possible by tele
phone and devoted the entire day to
Cameron.., When I told him I meant
to do this he protested, pretending
that he was quite without foreboding;
while' the' unconscious tapping of bis
foot on the rug, even as he spoke, be
lied his words. ;
We spent the better part of the day
golfing over the Apawamls links at
Rye, lunching at the club house be
tween rounds, for as a specific for
nerves t have ever found that game
of rare benefit. In the present in
stance' It more than fulfilled my ex.
Dictations. Cameron, apparently at
least, forgot everything save his de
sire to out-drive, out-approach, and
out-put me. " And when It "was over,
and 'with sharpened appetites we
drove back to Cragholt for dinner, he
appeared stimulated by a new-found
courage. . :
The day had passed without unto
ward event, and I felt sure that my
friend was gradually coming around
to my way of thinking. Neither of
us mentioned the subject, but it must
have recurred to him, at intervals, as
it did to me. And as the hours went
by without a sign, the conviction
grew that Murphy, with hands tied,
was fretting over the coup he was de
terred from compassing.
Mrs. Lancaster, whom I have men
tioned merely as Cameron's house
keeper, but who was, in addition, a
distant kinswoman and acted as a
sort of duenna to Evelyn, dined with
us that evening, and our little partle
carree seemed to me more than us
ually merry, owing doubtless to the
relaxation of the strain which both
Cameron and I had been under for
the past week.:
It gratified me to see my host so
unfelgnedly cheerful. I remember
how he laughed over Mrs. Lancaster's
recital of an incident of the morning.
"I had no idea," she said, "that An
drew," referring to the kennel master,
"was married. He astonished me
when he told me be had a wife and
three children. And when I told him
he did not look like a married man
he seemed rather pleased than other
wise." :.-
"It Js.Odd," Cameron returned, "but
it seems always tor flatter1 a husband
to tell him he doesn't look It" And
then he laughed as though he had no
care on earth. '
" After dinner we bad the usual
music, and Evelyn sang again that
lyrlo of Baudelaire's, this time in the
original French, - But the melody
brought back to me In vivid vision
our chance meeting in the woods and
all Us train of circumstances.
.When I had' finished applauding1,
Cameron turned to me.
"Do you like Baudelaire!"
"Mike his art," I answered, "and
his frank artificiality."
He' appeal to me," Cameron con
fessed, "decadent though 'he isy I
have read everything he ever wrote, I
think, prose and verse. "Did you ever
see my copy of hi 'Fleurs du Mal'f
The casket ts worthy of its contents.
It is the most exquisitely bound little
volume I ever saw. Come, I'll show
it to you."
I excused myself to Mrs. Lancaster',
and with pretended formality bent
over Evelyn's hand, brushing it with
my lips.
"Won't you be backf she, whis
pered.
"I hope so," was my answer. "But
I can't promise."
"Ob, what a trial it is to have
selfish uncle!" she murmured as
went.
Cameron led me through the 11
brary, acroHg the ball, and thence In
to his study, where he dove into
miniature book rack reserved for his
favorites. After a moment of fruitless
search he said
"it Isn't here. How stupid! I took
It upstairs a week ago, I remember.
It Is In my dressing room. Do you
mind coming up?"

with Cameron's bedchamber. On the
right were two windows, giving upon
an outside balcony. Between them
was a fire-place. .
To the left of the bath room door
was the entrance to a huge closet,
guarded by ad heavy curtain Of old
rose velvet To the right, was a sta
tionary wash-Btand, and above if
rectangular mirror, probably ten inch
es wide and a foot long, and very
curiously framed.' Across from tbls,
against the wall which' divided the
room from the passage; was an enor
mous chiffonier, or chest of drawers,
In the room's center was a round
tablei on which rested a - reading
lame. Between-the table and the
fire-place was a reclining chair. Oth
er chairs, three or four, were various
ly placed.
T htfve" given' these facts 'because
they are necessary to an intelligent
understanding of what I am about to
relate. .That in furnishing and adorn
ment the room was plainly utilitari
an is not so material..' But there is
one exception to this general declara
tion whlchf demands to be specified,
The mirror above the wash-stand pos
sessed a distinction quite aside from
Its practical utility. This was by no
means the first time I had seen It.
Cameron had showed it to me, with a
degree of pride, early in our ac
quaintance, explaining that it' Was at
once a relic arid an heirloom. Orig
inally the property of Nell Gwynne,
it had descended to him through
three or four generations of maternal
ancestors.
The glass was framed in colored
beadwork, to Which were attached
wax figures in high relief: it the top
a miniature portrait of Charles IL in
his state robes; at the bottom,1 one
of Nell herself, in court dress. The
king appeured also on J he right, In
hunting costume, and on the left was
another figure of his favorite in less
ornamental garb. According to the
legend which accompanied this in
teresting antique, - it was Nell
Gwynne own handiwork..'
It possessed for me a certain fas
cination due mure to its history than
Its beauty, for it was not the mout
artistic of creations, and as Cajieron
poked about for bis Baudelaire; I
stood gating St the glass1 and think
ing of all I had ever read of the Il
literate; but saucy, sprightly actress
whoso solO claim to fajne hung on her
winning the favor of that easy-going,
royal hypocrite, Charles II,
"Here's the binding!" I heard Cam-
eron Bay, and turned from the mirror
to the table, Where be had found his
sought-for treasure beneath a pile of
heavier, grosMr works.
"You knw ' something of book
binding," W went on;' with enthusi
asm. "Now examine that carefully,
and tell me if you ever saw anything
more exquisite. I had it done in Lon
don, laBt year. It's a copy of one of
Le Gascon's." :
At first slpht it kerned all glitter
ing gold, but on closer Inspection I
found that the froundwork was bright
red mororco, inlaid 'with buff, olive,
snd. marble lenther, the spaces close
ly filled with very delkute and beau
tlful polntllle traceries, it was a ver
itable gem in Its way, and I could not
blame Cameron for his raptures.
When I had apiilnuded and be-
pralsed to Ms content, ho took the 11
tie volume from my hnnd and onery-
Ins It, with a sort of slow reveronc
obaerved with something Has patron-
lsm:
"I'm afraid you don't qnlte under
stand Baudelulro." rf
"Docs anybody?" I fituifi back.
"Ho Is nut so obscure an his crlllr
would have us believe," Cameron
serted. ".'Ut down in

There was one verse which. Im

it, and remained with me for a long
while afterward, for,. In view of every
thing. It seemed to have a special ap
posltiveness. The lines to which I
refer have been translated In this

Cameron eat with his back to the
door leading to the passageway, arid
facing diagonally,' across the - table,
the Nell Gwynne mirror. My own
gaze was on him as he read. '
As he finished the verse, a portion
of which I have quoted; he lifted bis
eyes, I thought to meet mine, but his
look rose over- my head, and clung.
While his lids widened; and into every
line of his. face there came a rigid,
startled expression, half amazement,
half -.horror. And in tbatf instant of
tense silence the "Fleurs du Mai1

struck the table' edge, and dropped
with -unseemly echo- to the floor.
In a' breath I was on my feet arid
staring where his vision had focussed.
I hardly know what I expected to Bee.
I am sure nothing would have sur
prised me. ;And yet I Was scarcely
prepared for tho inexplicable ruin
which my sight encountered. The
glass of the Nell Gwynne mirror was
in atoms.' - '
Cameron rose; a little unsteadily
thought, and coming around the table,
joined me in closer inspection of his
wrecked hereditament' I can find no
word adequate to the description of
what we experienced. - Amazement
and all its synonyms are far too !
feeble for the task. We were certain
ly more than appalled. 1 What we saw
suggested to me spontaneous disin
tegration. :' If such a thing were pos
sible, which I believe It is not, it
might have explained the condition of
the mirror. No other ascription
seemed admissible; for, though the
glass remained in its frame not so
much, as a splinter having been
dropped, it was : fractured into a
thousand tiny pieces, resembling a
crystal mosaic. Incapable of any but
the most minute reflections. And the
change to this condition from a fair,
unmarred panel had been wrought
without sound and seemingly without
human agency. , ' '
For just a moment Cameron stared
in dumb awe. When he turned to me
he appeared suddenly to have aged.
His eyes were lustreless, and bis
cheeks wore a gray pallor.
"My God!" he murmured In a kind
of breathless whisper.
I would have given a great deal to
have been able' to allay that terror of
the Impalpable which was gripping
him. But I was helpless. Shocked
and astounded, myself, solace was not
at my command. More to escape the
piteous appeal of his silent gaze than
in hope of making discovery, I turn
ed in haste to one of the long win
dows which opened on the outer bal-
cony.'- Drawing back the sashes and;
flinging tbem wide, I stepped outside
and, listening, over the railing.
But the night was strangely still.
There was no sound, even, of stirring
leaves. 'A brooding hush seemed
spread over all the outdoor world
that ominous silence which often pre
cedes the breaking of a storm. I
looked up to find the heavens
wrapped in a pall of inky cloud. And
then, with a feeling of having fled
from a lesser to a greater evil, I re
turned to the lighted room, and
closed the window to shut, out ths
horror of the night "
Cameron was standing where I had
left him. He looked woefully tired
and haggard. '' ' ''
"Explain It!" he cried hoarsely.
"My God, Clyde;, explain it!"
"I would to Heaven
my forlorn' reply.
I could," was
CHAPTER VII. v
"From 8lght of Men Into Torment."
Seldom have I passed a more mis
erable hour than that which followed
upon the seeming phenomenon I have
described. Cameron was nervously
in tatters and my own poise was
something more than threatened. The
sight of a usually brave, strong, self
contained person of stolidly phleg
matic temperament transformed into
a relaxed, nerveless, apprehensive
creature is enough of Itself to try
one's fortitude, even with the most
favorable collateral conditions. Arid
the collateral conditions here were
quite the reverse. That which' bad af
fected Cameron bad exerted an influ
ence upon me as well, knowing, as I
did;' all the- circtrmHtances nd Ming
Interested, as I was, In my friend's
problnm. And so while his plight
tee at my heartstrings, my own In
ability to grapple with the mystery
contributed . an added mental dis
tress. To my dismay t found ; Cameron
quite incapable of anything approach
ing a alm, common-sonse discussion
of the matter, and realized to the full
the mischief which this last perfor
mance, coming as a climax upon a
we?k of more or less disquietude, bad
effected.
He eat most of the time with head
bent forward and knees doubled, his
totis touching the floor but bis heels
raised and in constant vibrating
movenvotit, as though stricken with
pulsy. The fingers of one band toyed
InrosHnnlly, too, with the BugeM of

told us that, however mysterious
these happenings appeared, they
could not have occurred without hu
man agency. It was our task to dis
cover the agent and punish him. This
was my line of argument; but
through it all, Cameron tat unmoved
and unresponsive.
And then there came to me again,
that unwelcome suspicion that all
along he had been hiding something
from me'; "that lie divined the cause
and the source' of the persecution,
but for some reason of hi own would
not divulge them.. . .
I rang for one of tie footmen and
' j
had some brandy brought, and forced
Cameron to swallow a stiff drink of
It, in which I Joined him. But even
this stimulant had small effect upon
him. And when, finally, I reluctantly
bade him good-night, 1 I was over
whelmed by the pathos of his condi
tion. So wrought and tortured, in
deed, was I, by the sad picture of de
throned courage which followed me
home, that sleep fled me and left mh
wide-eyed until the dawn.
The tidings which came td me with
my coffee that morning we're more
than half expected. Cameron was ill,
and his physician had been sum
moned from New York",'
, When 'I reached Cragholt the doc
tor, bad come and gone, and a
trained nurse was in attendance.
Evelyn, meeting me in the hall, con
veyed this intelligence in a breath,
and then, laying ' hold upon me, a
slender hand upon each coat sleeve,
ber big eyes pleading and anxious,
she ran on: ...
"It 1b shock, Dr. Massey says. De-
ferred shock, he called It. He says
Uncle Robert has suffered from some
Sudden grief, fright, or other dread
ful mental impression. His tempera
ture is way below normal and his
pulse Is a sort of rapid feeble flutter.
011, do tell me what you know about
it. What shock has he had? You
were with him last evening. He was
gay enough when you' and he went
from the music room. What hap
pened afterward?"
Caressingly I rested my palms upon
her shoulders.
"My dear little girl," I said, sooth
ingly. "I am sorry I can't satisfy
your very natural curiosity."
"But It isn't curiosity," she correct
ed, promptly. "It's interest." ,
"Well, interest then. I'm sorry, I
say. Something did happen; but to
tell you Just what it was, and why it
was a shock to him, I am not able.
Not now, at least. Maybe, some day,
you'll, know 'all about it"
There never was a more reasonable
young person than Evelyn Grayson.
Most girls, I fancy, would have teased
and grown peevish at being denied.
But she seemed to understand.
"Do' you want to see uncle?" she
asked me. '
"I don't belley it would be wise,"
I answered. : "Probably I, being a
i reminder, might do him harm. Tell
me how be seems? He isn't Uncon
scious?" "No. He answers questions. But
he never says anything for himself.
And, Philip, he looks so pinched and
old and pale! And his hands' are so
cold. The nurse has taken away his
pillows and raised .his, feet,, and
it's gruesome, that's the only word
that describes it".
"But he'll soon be better? The
doctor said that, didn't he?"
"Yes. He said that." '
But the reaction which usually fol
lows shock was only partial in Cam
eron's case, and for days his life was
in danger. Then followed a period of
slow, general recovery.
As the month of October pro
gressed I feared the liability to re
lapse. I knew, instinctively, with
what dread sensations he must be
awMtlng the fourteenth of the month,
! He had been forbidden, of course, to
' revive any mall, just as he had
I been denied visitors; but I felt that
in an uncertainty that must of neces
sity prove Injurious. And so I took
Dr. Massey, in a measure, into my
confidence, ud gained from him per
mission to Cameron for a brief
moment
"He has been asking for you," the
physician Informed me, "but I fan
cied it better to' make no exceptions.
Now, however, I see that you may be
a help Instead of A hindrance."
Despite the more or less circum
stantial reports as to his condition
and appearance which had filtered to
me from the sick room, through the
medium of Evelyn, Miss Collins, the
nurse, and Dr. Massey atid his assis
tant. Dr. Thorne, I Was not altogeth
at prepared for the marked change
wlilch Iohb than three weeks had
wrought In my friend. He was peaked
and bloodless and tired and old. And
hti voice was little more than a whis
per. i '
He made a brave effort to smile, as
I came in, but it resulted In a sad
grimacing failure. I lifted one of his
thin, clammy hands' which lay Inert
on the coverlid, but it gave me only
the feeblest answering pressure,
"I'm so glad you're better," I told
htm, cheerily. "Fancy the doctoV al
lowing me to see you! That shows
what he thinks."
"Yes," he .whispered, "I'm coming
round, slowly. And I wanted to see
you, Clyde. What day of the month
Is this?"
"The twelfth."
' "Day after tomorrow, It will come,"
he said.
i "Don't be too sure," I replied. "I
think they've done about enough to
Satisfy any Ordinary villains."
; He was silent for a moment Then,
with Just the faintest turn of his head
from side to side, he said:
"Hut they are not ordinary Til-
lalaa."..- '
