The picture was as charming as man could wish. And of a truth Edith Carew desired to appear very charming this evening to one particular man who was going to escort her to a dance given in honour of their engagement, which had just been announced. It had created the greatest interest amongst her circle of friends. For six months past two brothers Richard and Robert Fawcitt had been paying attentions to Miss Carew. Both were devoted admirers, and yet their rivalry had not affected their devotion to one another. It had been predicted their brotherly love could not stand the test, and that they would fall out over her. The prediction proved false. Richard, the elder, when he realised that his brother was the favoured man, accepted the situation. A sigh, a shake of the hand, and God bless you, Bob, was all that passed between them. And the day after this story opens Richard Fawcitt was starting for a trip to the West I ndies, in order that he might forget Edith if he could.
