”You have been very imprudent, but there is no use in recriminations We irl ounded?”
”No, but Monsieur Goutran does”
”I will go to hione away for the day Here is a little bag which we found in the young lady's roo”
And Madame, as she spoke, handed Fanfar one of those littleat the belt Fanfar opened the bag, and found a letter without address
”We must look at this,” he said
The letter was only a few lines of thanks written to the young girl by Goutran, when she consented to sing at his _soiree_ The note began with the words ”Miss Jane!”
”Miss Jane!” cried Fanfar, a sudden recollection flashi+ng over him
To this cry there was a response The door opened, and Sanselme tottered in
”Jane! Jane! Did you say Jane?”
Fanfar ran to his assistance
”Don't trouble yourself about me,” cried Sanselme ”Tell me, did I hear you speak the name of Jane?”
”That is certainly the na the paper in his hand, which Sanselme snatched from him
”Yes, it is hers It is th to conceal his secret ”It is Jane's,” he added
”Then you know this girl?” Fanfar asked, excitedly
”Do I know her? Was it not she ished to die? Was it not she whom I rescued?”
”No, calm yourself You are mistaken You ers threaten those whoer?” asked Sanselo! I must leave this place at once”
He started froth failed hiht hiht have known it! That wretch Benedetto is always a signal of misfortune to me”
”Who speaks of Benedetto!” said a hoarse voice
Every one started Before thearments, with her white hair in disorder And as Sanselme looked up he saw her A terrible cry escaped fro eyes riveted on the spectre before him
”It is she!” he murmured ”The dead, it seems, are permitted to revisit the earth!”
