lias been mine.
On the contrary,
ita past is heaped
upaud rinsing
over with events of
gj-eater or less Im
portance,, which
now, as my sunset
apravjeea,-grow-luminous and assume
shapes that are startling ia tbeir fidelity.
From the diary of a good woman's life, I
have torn two pages. .One was written in a
mist of Doubt; the other beneath tboglorioue-
ly radiant arch of Delight. After years of un
certainty, happiness has become to her a per
ennial bow of promise.
What these two pages reveal of truth, only
guessed at before, intensifies a memory that
will abide with me until the grave's impene
trable shadows are lifted and dispelled. j
Tbe scenes ot this narrative are "on for
eign station."
Almost simultaneously I bad reached my
tbirth-seventh year and the thirty-fifth par
allel of south latitude. The turtle-back, pe
ninsular city of Montevideo very comforta
bly housed me among Ita one nundred tboo-
inhabitanta. There were, probably,
5
George Hamiltoh; and none of them were
blank books.
Incidentally, be had told me that be was
married, but made no further reference to
family affairs. He claimed to represent a
New -- England manufacturing company;
whose main offices were in Boston. I natu
rally supposed that bis wife was living at or
near that city. His almost studied reticence
about domestic associations prevented me
from making even ordinary inquiries. I was
to learn more, however, and soon; but not
all from him.
To describe George Hamilton hi his moods,
or at his worst or best, would result the same.
An attractive man, be easily gained and held
esteem. Men and women alike were fasci
nated by his physical beauty and Intellectual
strength. I bad been proud of his individual
preference. '
On the third evening, after he had rejoined
me, be came hurriedly into my room at the
Hotel los Estrangeros. His agitation was 111
concealed. Throwing himself, full length.
upon a bamboo lounge, he rested his head la
one band and looked fixedly at me. This
waa a new phone of his recent singular be
havior. After a few moments, be sprang to bis
feet, and began pacing the room. Then, sud-
dcniajjalting in his walk, he excitally sniit:
"I am miserable-1 Pardon me, senor; I owe
you apology and explanation."
"Neither," was my curt reply.
Without seeming to notice or care for tbo
manner of my inter jectiqn, be continued t -
"Oh, yes, Ido; for outwardly I am no longer
the man to whom yon freely extended an
honorable, sympathetic friendship. Meeting
casually, as ell earth's travelers do, the pass
ing acquaintance boa, with me, ripened into
sincere regard. You may not wholly ap
preciate the bitterness Of a necessity now
forced upon me or the heartache that come
with it; but here we port. When you return
to the States hunt me up. It will be pleasant
to rehearse old times."
"Whatl" I exclaimed; "do you not Intend

with the smiles of La Serena," be said, with
a mocking laugh, "we can In the future com
pare notes. Butatrucotothisl I'm ashamed
of my weakness. You go among the Orientals
and Argentines without me. I shake your
hand to-morrow and quit tbis port for tbe
distant Mersey, whence a swift NortbAtlan- i
tio liner whirls me westward to home and tbe
ceaseless buxz of trade."
"At what hour do you sail, Hamilton f
"Eleven o'clock, forenoon, on tbe Neva, of
the Royal mail. There she lies, just inside
Fort Villegagnon. You will be on board P
"Yes."
"Thanks," he cold, as be placed his bat
with the dignity of a cavalier. Then, stand
big for a moment at tbe door of my room, be
aourteously relifted the bat, extending hi
other band, and resting it, caressingly, on toy
shoulder.

The previous month, and, In" fact, the last

of a steamer comrade.- Hi mercantile eo
gagemsota detained him at Pernambooo and
Babia. Thus be escaped a genuine howling,
sail splitting pampero, which had given me a
toss and tumble idea of what a hard blow
off shore usually is in tbe vicinity of Cabo
Trio. i
When wa were again together, I quickly
detected a change ia George Hamilton. He
aawmt il preoccupied his mind far removed
from either business or pleasure. I had

It is a veritable drama, now being act!.
Ths kailinj character is, I bare aoridMitally
Next morning breakfast wa dispatched
with some nervousness. Futly an hour and
a half bfor tbe advertised time for sailing
I stepped on board tbe Neva. Passenger fol
lowed passenger nimbly up the gangway;
but no Hamilton appeared. 1 want in and
out of the saloon and tbe minor cabin, aad
searched for him until the gong sounded to
elearship. On questioning tbe first officer a
to whether my friend bad actually taken
passage on that ateatner, he referred me to
tbe purser, who said that no such man or
nam was booked. Perplexed and chagrined
at this Information, I went over th Neva's
port side and wa briskly rowed ashore.
Something told me that 1 had been doped
and purposely that my late mysterious
oompanioo had a reason for his conduct
which wa all potent to him, but which I
might never know.
That nJght, at tbe hotel, when I kicked off
my shoes before retiring, my left foot struck
mall object on the floor by tbe lounge.
Stooping down, I picked up a velvet and
clasp locket. Touching Its spring, I saw tbe
face of a woman of exquisite loveliness. Sue
was in Spanish costume. Her tender, bs
eeching eye fairly glistened ia tbe minia
ture, which was an admirable painting on
ivory. Tbe locket had, without doubt, been
dropped by Hamilton whan he threw himself
on the lounge the evening before. I carefully
placed it in my traok, a.iA juaiar

On Christmas eve of that year, a ' very nu
merous throng of English and Americans
were assembled at the quinta of Senor M ,
on the Paso del Molina, I had been in Buenos
Ayres, but cam down the river to partici
pate in tbis holiday festivity. Our popular
host and hostess entertained a distinguished
company at tbeir elegant suburban home.
Evergreens and tbe rarest tropical flowers
bedecked sola and corridor. Ornament and
emblem, appropriate to the season which
we celebrated, were draped with Uruguay's
stripes of blue and white, intertwined with
the national standard of Great Britain end
the United States. Many of ths guests were
neighbors and old friends ot Senor M ,
mode doubly welcomo by him because they
had not waited for etiquette's special Invita
tion. There was musio Indoors and out, and
open air dancing beneath nature's spangled
canopy. From' tree to tree, in tbe grounds,
and along the broad graveled promenades,
ropes were stretched laden with Chinese
lanterns,
Again I saw La Serena, How radiantly
beautiful she was among charming women!
Her escort on this occasion was Lieut. S ,
a brave officer attached to an English war
vessel tben at anchor in Montevideo roads.
He was a high spirited Briton, rot the very
personification of amiability. Knowing him
well, I, of course, sought an Introduction to
bis lovely companion, which she most gra
ciously received. Later in the evening So1
nora M- placed us vis-a-vis at a card ta
ble. Tben, after supper, came tbe desired op
portunity for conversation. 1 hastened to
improve the chance, for my curiosity wot
now at the highest pltcli. So I quietly soldi
"Your husband is a good friend of mine,
Mrs. Hamilton." .
"You know my husband! Impossiblei" the
murmured.
"Perhaps I misunderstood Lieut. 8 " t
Are you not Mr. Georg Hamlltonf"
"Yes." - ,.
. "Of Beaten, Massachusetts!" ,
"No."
"Yet I cannot be mistaken in your iden
tity." "1 never lived in your country, sir, I as
sure you I An American, who bos business
interests in the city which you hare named,
is, however, my husband. We are separated
by a gulf that is terrible to contemplate, : 1
am schooling "myself to forget him. He is
not now in South America, nor will he ever
return to thi section of it. His name I bear,
for it was honorably given to me in mar
riage. You say that he Is a friend of yours."
Forgive mo, sir, but that man Is the friend
of no bntnaa being other than himself. He
is utterly, brutally selfish I"
"I said, aenora, that we were acquainted.
There is sometimes a distinction between that
and solid friendship. W have recently
parted company in Rio."
At this announcement she clinched ber
bands, as If in agony. Her frame visibly
shook, and ber paasionato eagerness was so
. great that I feared other guest might see it.
But merriment ran riot; and each couple or
coterie was absorbed in it own enjoyment
Quickly recovering her composure, Mrs. ;
Hamilton asked i

I briefly told her all that I knew of
him whom I bad so greatly lilted. , How, as
fellow voyagers, w bad first met on a steam

with, me; the broken appointment on tbe

me to recognlxeber at the Teatro Soils,
"You my," she replied, "that George Ham
ilton must have preceded or followed you to

"Such is my opinion, aenora. "
"Wby should be do that! Hot for your
sake, surely; nor yet for hi own. With me
(so cruelly deceived be cannot hope to be
reconciled.
and tbe River Plate republic for heavy de
falcations." A light broke upon me. Tbe mystery was
being solved, and by an accidental friend of
the family. There were two George ilamll
tons, and La Serena imagined that she hail
married the wrong one. It bad been my
friend's fathers name, 1 knew. He had one
day told me that about tbe time of bis fathers
death, in Massachusetts, the name had been
adroitly osed by a swindler In South Ameri
ca, who obtained large sums of money.
"Yoa became George Hamilton's wife here,
in Montevideo, ssnoraf" was bow my leading
question.
"No," sb mid, "at Paris Though I was
born In Uruguay, my education wa com
pleted abroad. I never knew George Ham
ilton in tbis country. Just as we ware pre
paring for our borne coming, here, tbe Euro
pean newspapers began to print tbe account
of my husband s crimes. Tbe knowledge that,
by holy bonds, 1 was allied to such a man
overwhelmed ma. He wa in Liverpool ar

"There hat been cases of false persona

"Prove to me that this Is one!" she ex
claimed "Prove to me that I've wronged
my husband; prove that be is true and hon
orable as was that man, now dead, whom
nam he bears; prove this, and all of this,
and my woman's ' prayers are for you for
ever!" ; " .- --
"I may be able, sgnora, to do more than
this."; . ' , ;:.
"Oh, sir, do not mock me! There come,
at times, taunting specters in my dreams;
but I awake to hopelessness. You have
strangely interested me in yourself. Lieut
8 will soon bring you to vWt me. Tben
you con return the locket. Alas, it was my
wedding gift to bun you still rail friend!"
Tbe gay assemblage was now breaking up.
On every tide were heard shouts of "Good
night!" and "Merry Christ masl" Mrs. Ham
ilton's carriage bod been ordered, and, as 1
handed ber Into it, she saidi
"t am glad, senor, that we have met
Something tells me joy will come from itf
Then, with "good night," sweetly spoken, ths
sank back on the cushions. .
Following ber into the coach, Lieut 8
closed its door. His extended band was has
tily grasped and released. Aa tbe vehicle
rolled away, tbey cried la unison, "Merry
Christmas!" I responded with a hearty
"adlosl"
Overhead glittered the constellation of th
Southern Cross. Its exceeding brightness
was boiled by me as a good omen.
.".. .. e
Modesty and bravery are sterling qualities,
Lieut S poiaessed them both. Whatever
he did while on active service for Her Brit
annio Majesty and the glory of his country
was in line of duty. Talking about it was
not Sucb men can be implicitly trusted.
So I told him La Serena's story, and my own
confidence. He lUtened, without comment,
until I had finished. Then he said s
"Rumor has It that I lovs Mrs. Hamilton,
and would marry her If she were free. In
this Judgment rumor wrongs me and scan
dalizes a most estimable woman. I snail
never have other wife than England, She
Is mistress of tbe seas and of my very souL
It would be a supreme happiness to die in
her defense. If rumor had mid that I was
an old and firm friend of Mrs. Hamilton, It
would bavs been tba sufficient truth. Pshaw!
Rumor is a jade, I owe ber nothing except
contempt You are, 1 think, right in what
you conjecture about the real George Ham

' Joyously was tbe birth of another year
proclaimed by tbe chimes of Matrix, Peal
after peal rose and swelled and died away In
tbe echoes of a bustling town. Big and little,
rich and poor, Montevideo's one hundred
thousand were In holiday attire, Tbe broad
harbor was a sea of color. Flags and stream
er fluttered everywhere, At o'clock I
joined a party at the "mole," and was rowed
out to the Narcissus, Lieut S cordially
welcomed m at tbe gangway. Scarcely had
letepped on noani when be said i
"Joceiyn and hi friend are In the ward
room. Let us look at Mr. George at once f
"Agreed." said I, a I followed him across
tbe deck.
Before we bad gone ten paces there was a
cry from the water. A pleasure boat bad
bspa eapstzed .by a sudden flaw of wind.
Help was close at band, but there was too
much of it . Three parsons ware seen cling

At that moment I missed Lieut 8, who

of tba Narcissus and was swimming toward

powerful stroke was in advance of tbe In
trepid Englishman. How my heart beat!
