ted all the essential particulars- but 1
agreed to go to Easterly Harbor aud
see what wis the matter. It was ar
ranged that on the next day ifter my
departure hp should mall an >ther letter
In a pink envelope of nnnsral shit*
and I should watch for It t wa* t*

the last I was to play Santa Clans for
this family to munificent fashion, for
which purpose he gave me some check*
signed in blank and a letter to a bank
er named Manning In Belfast, an old
friend of Garland
On Saturday. Pee. 14. I arrived at
Easterly Harbor and found my way to
the Garland house. where it was be
lleved that I could secure board. I
was. In fact, welcomed with the most
charming courtesy.
And here I received a surprise quite
characteristic of Garland and his er
rands. The household consisted of
the mother, whose n;ime was I.ucy; a
cousin ot about her own ape. who was
ca 'led Aunt Kate; the boy. Frank, and
the nm-i beautiful blue eyed, golden
haired girl w lio e\er existel And she
was Celia!
Surely nulnxly but Garland wonld
haxe failed to tell me that he hid sent
his benefactions to the daughter and
not the mother and why he h d don
so
It was possible, ef course, that at
the time when he beeau to send the
money Mrs Garland may have been
prostreted by her recent bereavement.
In which case I'elia w.uld have been
the natural head of the family, for
Annt Kate seemed not quite of sound
mind, her great affliction tempered by
God's mercy and her own lovely na
tnre Into a gentle, dreamlike detach
ment from the world's realities.
It required no detective skill to dls
cover that this family wa^ In very
narrow circumstances and that Gar
land's remittances had gone astray.
I waited with great interest, there
fore, for the test letter, or. rather, for
the day pet for its arrival. Th.' truth
that 1 liad no expectation of seeing
tt. having made up my mind that the
whole scries of letters hid been stolen
in the Easterly Harbor pnstofllce.
Bnt the letter came I saw Frank
take It from the box at the post?fflce.
Kight at the foot of the steps be
met his sister
"Nothing for you. sis." snid he.
This was d!re. 1 bad not for an
instant dreamed of theft hy a member
of the family should I do?
After some hard thinking 1 decided to
state the facts to Garland tu the mild
est possible manner, not condemning
tbe boy unheard, but merely asking
for authority to question him. A re
ply by mall con Id not be expected be
fore the f.flli day. and meanwhile '
might observe Frank ;.nd try to salr*

There was no nay to get Into the

I sat a little later than usual by the
