Ths to.* "But surely, Denham, you don't in tend to inform the police?" "I am going to do so now." Felix seized me by the arm and drag ged mo back to my seat. He was now much agitated, but made every effort to restrain his emotion. "Sit down," he said in a hoarse tone. "You do me wrong, Denham—on my soul yon do me wrong} I was engaged, I am engaged, to Olivia Bellin. Her mother consented to our engagement after I returned to England three months ago.

"They may be misled by the resem blance. Remember, you and Francis are twins." "I said before, and I say it again, you are mad!" he cried, roughly casting mo off. "Whoever heard of an appoint ment being made at a ruined inn? No one has lived there for months. Ask any one in Marshminster, and they will tell you bo. " "Strent and his daughter Eose"—l began, when he cut me short. "Who aro they? I never heard of them. They are figments of some dream. You went into that ruined inn last night and dreamed all this. " " You don't believe my story?" "Not one word," said Felix coolly, looking me straight in the face. "Then I don't believe one v.'onS of yours," I cried, jumping up, 4'Let us place the matter in thr> K^nds of the authorities and see will be believ ed." "What s*s/j you going to say, Den ham?" "Say?

"I shall provo my identity and in a manner that will admit of no denial." With that he vanished, and I waited to see what further evidence he would bring forward to back up his imposture.

CHAPTER IV. There was no doubt that Felix in tended to continue passing himself off as Francis. For how long I was uncer tain; perhaps for the rest of his natural life or until he made Olivia his wife. In this latter event he could reveal the fraud with impunity and revert to his own identity. I could not help thinking that he had been informed beforehand of the death of his brother, else he would not have dared to keep up his imposture with a possible revelation so near at hand. Even assuming such ignorance, I had now told him of the death myself and so strengthened his position. I regret ted that I had not been more cautious. I was curious to see whom he would bring forward as a witness to his iden tity. Scarcely Olivia, as if she once had suspicion of the truth sho wotxld never rest until all was cleared up to her satis faction. I hardly 'thought Felix would run such risk, the more so as his story of losing the pearl ring could not stand against my assertion that it was on the finger of the dead man. If he still per sisted in declaring himself to be Fran cis, I determined that he should ride with me to the Fen inn and there see the corpse of the man whose name he had so shamelessly assumed. That would surely settle tho matter. Felix was bolder than I gave him credit for, as his witness proved to bo none other than Olivia Bellin. She en tered tho room with assumed lightness, but her face was anxious, and she glanc ed every now and then at Felix as though to seek his aid and countenance. He, as was natural, wore a haggard ex pression. His nerves were tensioned up to tho highest pitch, a matter of small wonderment, seeing that his life's hap piness depended upon this interview. "What is this strasge story you bring, Mr. Donliamt'' asked Olivia, greeting me coldly. In our best days we were never overfriendly. "Has not Mr. Briarfleld told you?" "I have not had the time," inter posed Felix quickly. ' 'Beyond a few hints of the truth she knows nothing." "Not even that you arc Felix Briar fleld?" "Felix?" repeated Miss Bellin in sur prise. "But you are making a mistake^ Mr. Denham. This is Francis," "So he says." "You see, Olivia," said Briarfleld, addreasing Miss Bellin, "Denham ia eists upon taking mo for my brother Fs> lix." ''How absurd! I assure you, Mr. Denham, that Felix is in Paris. I re ceived a letter from him only this morn ing." "Impossible," said I, taken aback by the authority of her tone. "It is quite true," she continued hur riedly. "Excuse me for a moment, and I shall fetch the letter. You must be lievo tho evidence of your own eyes.'' When sho left the room, Felix turned towaxd mo with a gleam of triumph in his eyes. ' "Are you convinced?" he asked zuock ' ingly. To be Continued.
