Yes, they're brothers an' so much alike all I've got to do is describe one of 'em an' you have 'em all.","Answer me," persists Mona, not heeding—nay, scarcely hearing—his last speech. "You said once it would be difficult to lie to me. Do you know anything of this missing will?",CHAPTER XXV MR.

An antimacassar bearing wide magenta and red crocheted stripes covered his back causing him to strut with peacock pride.,"Me singing!" quavered old John, with a voice of amazement. "Why, I ha'nt sung this twenty year past."，He paused and searched the girl's face. "You see, Erie," he said slowly, "I'd been tellin' Mr. Maddoc all about how Hinter an' Scroggie had been tryin' to find water fer us, an' how they had had a barrel of oil explode, an' every thin'. Somehow he didn't seem a bit like a stranger. I didn't mind tellin' him at all. Why, I even told him about the Twin Oaks store robbery, an' about Hinter wantin' to get hold of Lost Man's Swamp, an' everythin'.，Two o'clock! The song dies away, and Mona's brow contracts. So late!—the day is slipping from her, and as yet no word, no sign.，Geoffrey and Mona go up the road with the serenader behind them, and, turning aside, she guiding, mount a stile, and, striking across a field, make straight for the high hill that conceals the ocean from the farm. Over many fields they travel, until at length they reach the mountain's summit and gaze down upon the beauteous scene below.During these enquiries a new subject of disturbance broke out in the castle of Mazzini. On the night so fatal to the hopes of Hippolitus and Julia, when the tumult was subsided, and all was still, a light was observed by a servant as he passed by the window of the great stair-case in the way to his chamber, to glimmer through the casement before noticed in the southern buildings.

The former mysterious circumstances relative to these buildings rushed upon his mind; and fired with wonder, he roused some of his fellow servants to come and behold this phenomenon.

CHAPTER I His Fighting,"Are you sure you've got 'em boxed safe, Bill?" he asked, fearfully.,"Yes, I suppose so," replies Mr. Rodney, reluctantly. "But he don't look like it.

Even now they may have suspected my purpose, and may be coming here to prevent your ever returning.","Don't you have nuthin' to do with it, Ma!" he cried.
