"There seems to be something fateful about this morning," he mused; "I had better go in before the rest of the female population——" and recovering his feet with difficulty, he took his hat, and was about to enter the house when he saw the young lady watching him from an upper window of the adjoining castle. Thinking to relieve her anxiety, he said at once:
