Many yaus ago, when tiw jonnujy from £dinbargh to Loadon wm a matter «t daya lurtead of bonn, I aterted to ii|«k« h, for the first time In my life, la the •taceooaoh whiohlahaU oaU the Sotfol^Wmam. I vna travelliog alone, faianmdi aa I knew none of the oUun paaaeogera bat the gnardhadbean *^ppad'to look after me, and he did that aa well and for aa long aa he conld. It waa about tn daya before Chriatmaa. I ma gong to pay my first vlait to London, having left aohool 'for good ' acme awntha befme. The nroqpeot of the joqmey had lMn aoarcely leta de- Ughtfal tiuut that of London itaelf, and tediuna aa it wonld be thought in thei o Inznrioaa daya, even by heuAy yoong people aaoh aa I then waa, I enjoyed it thoroughly â€" at leaat nntil more than half of it waa oyer. There was anow In the air, bat none on the groand, and oar foar *apankiiig' horsea took us along at ten miles an hoar inolading the atoppagea. All went well until we got to iorkahirs. We had far acme hoars been going through a anow-ooyered region, and our pace had coDseqaently been somen'hat diminished but wtien vro reached the wild moo^a of Yorkshire, |tbe anow came down in blinding clouds, and darkness aetticg in, we loRt our Way. Between the drift and the darkness â€" ^for it was about five o'clock jn the afternoon â€" we had mnnaged to get «ff the high-road, and only discovered our mistake when, after much plunging and struggling on the part of the horses, and coaxing and swearing on that of the driver and gue^rd, all of which was more exciting than agreeable, the wheels stuck fast in the anow, and the exhausted animals absolutely refused to go a st^ farther. Where we were, we oould not tell â€" it was ev^n a matter of doubt if we were on a road at a)L We could just dimly see the white moorland stretcbbag away on ev^ry aide. There were neither stars nor moon, and the pale rays from the coach lamps, which shone coldly on the anow, axtended no farther than the leaden' hebda. One paaaesger proposed that we should all crowd together Luide the ooaoh, then â€" necessity having no law â€" feast upon any edibles that happened to be in it, and finally try to aleep tUl morning. Bat, for aevenJ reasons, few of ns oared for that plan, with- out first making another effort to get back to the high-road so the guard took his bom, and two gentlemen a lantern, and they went off together to reconnoitre. In ten minutes they came back to say that they could not make anything of the aituation but that they had seen the lights of a house down in a hollow not far cff, and were of the opinion that it would be tetter for na to toy to reach it, rather than remain where we were all night. We all got out of the coach and started for the house, leaving guard and coachman behind, but promiamg to send them aaaistance when we reached our destination. The two gentlemen with the lantern guided ua and in about a quarter of an hour we reached the lodge gatea, after much parleying where- at, we were at length allowed to proceed to the house itaelf. We were not aatoniahed that the porter liad been ao nnwllllDg to admit na when we diacovered, aa we aoon cM, that the honae waa already full of Ohristmaa gneata, moat if not all of whom would be remaining over the night for in the country in thoae daya, flying visits were more or less impraotlcable in winter, and this waa one of those ialoated dwellinga whoae inmatea might be kept prlbODera for weeka at a time. But not- withstanding their crowd of gueate, the maater and loiatreaa â€" whom I ahsdl call Wil- liamaâ€" reoeived na very kindly, warmed na, fed us, and immediately sent off two of their own men-aervanta to aaaist the guard and driver to bring the horaea to their stoblea. Never were belated travellera more fortu- nate Snch an inundation r{ strangers must have been a serious inconvenience in a houiie already so full of peo[de but Mr. and Mrs. Williams made ua aJl at once feel at eaae, and were very mujh diatreased that they oould only find aleeping aooommo- dation for the ladlea of. our {rnrty beda -would be made up in the bams for the gentlemen, however, 'which would not,' they hoped, ' be found very ua- comfortable.' The gentlemen of cdurae were delighted with the idea, and declared their willingness to sleep anywhere â€" as in- deed we ladies had alao done. So the evening paaaed on and a very pleasant evening it waa, with -muaio and dancing â€" thoae dear old coontry-danoea that one never aeea nowaday a, when old ladies and old gentlemen danoed together and looked dignified, or heartily merry, and sometimes graceful. Alao, it added greatly to my enjoyment when I discovered in the courae of the evening that Mr. and Mrs. Williams were old and warm friends of my own father and motiier. Although I had never before seen them, I had heard them spoken of by my parenta, who would be deltghted when they got news of their old frienda in so unexpected a way. In these daya of railway traina and penny- poste, one need never lose sight of one's mends but things were different then, and I knew that my father and mother were not even aware whether the Williamsea were still In this world. The gentlemen passengers retired about eleven o'clock but the rest of na aat ohattins|w nearly another hotur. Daring thia time^^^aiime remarka I aoddentally over- • heard led me to the conclusion that we ladies werfe }nat one too many for the sleep- ing accommotion of the house, which waa not a very, lurge one, and that Mr. Williamahimaelf intended to go and aleep In a amall oottage that had onoe been the bal- UfiPa, but waa now unoooupied. To turn onr hoat out of tala own hooae, aeemed really barbarona, ao I entreated him to let me go inatead. At firat ho. laughed at the idea aa ridiouloua bat when I ahowel him that I was in eamesi, waaiiot tne least afraid, and indeed rather enjoyed the idea of snob a fi pi.Vi up to an adventnroaa day, he gave When all the other gneata had rstired, my new frienda kept me a little longer at the drawing-room fife talking aboat my father and mother; then Mra.

IIm noma were vrry bare bat they were clean enough to all appea'anoe, and there in the inner one lay my bed, wiiite and in- viting. There waa a eliair, and a waahing- atani^ aad a email table with a looking-glaaa and four lighted oandlea on it. Candlea were lit alM in the other room and my hoat adviaed me to keep them burning -thronsh the night, so that, ehoald I avakr, I mi^t not find myaelf In the dark. A further supply lay on the table. ' Now,' said Mr Williama, when we had tak^ a look round, ' ahall I not atay, and let yon go baok to the honae I am aura it woald be betterâ€" In faot, the only proper thing to do.' Bat I would not recant, and declared tbat I did not anticipate thinga could have been made ao comfortable at which Mr. Williama laughed, and aeeing that I waa obdurate, yielded. Shall I losk you in, then, or will you keep the key 7' he asked. Lock me in. please It sounds more secure,' I replied. ' Ah,' he said with a smile, shaking his head at the last part of my answer, and looking ready t) begin the argument all over again. 'Bat since you will be ob- stinate, I will corns and lei yon oat at half past seven.' So sayibg he bade me a kindly good-night, and went out, lock- ing the door behmd him. The door between the two rooms stood open, the fire crackled oheerilyj and the candles burned brightly. On the table ttood a bag, which Mrs. Williams had told me contained everything nesessary to my comfort. I undressed a little, took down my hair, and began to brush It. Suddenly I was startled by a peculiar sound, seem- ingly quite close to me. It was a gentle clink-ciink, like a chain rattling. I held my brush suspended, and listened. Pooh I What a white face was that in the glass I It must be some dog kennelled near, and Mr, Williams had not thought of telling me of, ft. Yet I conld have declared that the sonud was in the oottage â€" in the room where I was, even I But that of oourse was Impossible. I drew a breath, very gently, and went on brushing my hidr. There I it came vain â€" oUnk-clank â€" this time loader than before, and seemingly so near my baok, that I looked over my shoul- der almost expecting to see something. But there was nothing visible. I tomed my eyes to the other room. Nothing there either, that I could'see the2oandles' shadow but no other â€" shadows. It was nonsense to toll myself that It might be imagination,' for I knew it was not. I wished that I had eyea in every part of my body eapeoially in my baok, and I began to regret that I had wUled to be a priaoner, Inatead of keeping the power of eacape in my own huida. All waa quiet again, exc pt that I fancied I heard the aound of breathing. Was it pos- sible, I wondered, that I could hear the breathing of any creature outside the cot- tage 7 Impossible, surely thia must be Im- agination it would be mytelf breathing 1 And when people were nervous â€" ^I meant frightened â€" their senaea were not alwaya to be depended upon 1 With theae refieotiona, I tried to shake off mj feara, and went on bmahlng my hair. But 1 had never notioed before what a noiay operation this waa, my boota creaked ao loudly at every motion. I made haato with aa little nolae aa poaalble, twiated it up, and waa ready to go Into bed when tiie aound came a£pUnâ€" ^ink-olink-olank, quite dia- tinctly. It atartled me fearfully thia time, I had really I believe been half hoping that it was imagination; but there was no doubt now. Where the sounds came from I could not before exactly tell no ir however I felt certain that the cause of them waa not farther oft than ag^at the ontoide of the oottage wall behiud my bed. It might be a dog but I could not help feeling aa afraid aa If It were aomething very different. I got Into bed, Onoe warmly covered up, I did feel a little more aeoure but my heart atiU kept thumping, and inatead of trying to aleep, I atrained my eyea to their wideat tbat they might take in every oomer of the plaoe at once. Some mbintea paaaed, and I heard no sound but a ooal gently ainking, and the breathing that mnat be my own â€" and Imagination â€" thon, anddenly, clink- clank, oliok-olank, loud snd fast, and the next moment a man crept slowly oat from under my bed 1 Now, indeed, my heart leaped' Into my mouth paralyzed with terror, I just lay aad gazed at him. Ha crept along the floor to- warda the fire, clanking aa he went then he atood up â€" a tall alightly made young man, with a dark fierce faoe aad bmliaat eyea,â€" and leaning forward, with hia baok to me, he spread out hia haada to the blaza awful hiuida to look at and chaina hung round each wriat, rattling alightiy and glittering in tiie firelight aa hia eyea did alao. Fwr aome momeatol lay and gaced at him aoarcely breathing, expecting every hiatant that he would turn hia head aad aee me. He did not but of 'oourse I dared not atay there. Yet I aeemed apellbonnd to the spot and it waa with a great effort of will, but without a definite idea what to do, that I managed one deaperate move. I alipped out of bed, and, with my eyea fixed on the man I glided awiftiy to the door, into the other room, and into the oomer that waa ^lost in the shade. Had he but turned his head an inch aa I paaaed, he must have seen me but he kept hia eyea on the fire with an awfully hnngry lookâ€"and perhapa my motiona were aa n^seleaa aa I wished them to be. Oaoe^ I waa in the oomer he could not aee nm without ooming into the room. But he might do tliat apy moment; aad then 7 I atood atill and rigid, listenfaig. I oould not now see him. A long time It seem- ed that he atood In the aame poeition, then the chaina clanked loudly, and I heard him walking aoroia the floor. He mnat be ooming now 1 I thought I wonld have difrd that moment.

So the long hours paaaed. The man did not get up again, and I thought he mnat be asleep but when at length the fire and the candles in both rooms went out almost sim- ultaneomily, he took no notios of it but left us in darkness. ' For some hours it waa a darkness that might be felt; but it did not add much to my terror, for It made me feel a litt)e saf«r aud farther away from him. All this passed in what seemed years in- stead of hours till at last my heart gave a great bound of hope for there, through the window, which had neither blind or shutter, I could aee lighto moving about over the anow in different direotlons. Then all the lighta came together at the door, and aome- one tried to open it. Alaa I it was looked and the key gone, as 1 knew. So, after another futile attempt to open it the Kghto all mov- ed slowly away. I waa afraid to go forward to the window, lest the man should aee me and the torch bearers should not I only moved along the wall so as to be oppoeite to it, and waved my hands in a silent frenzy. No one saw me, and soon all the lighta dia- appeaied quite. This disappobatment almost deprived me of all the remaining strength I had left but I waa too thoroughly terrified to faint. I was in no hurry for any such luxury, and now every moment ex- pected that the man, roused by the noise at the door would come Into my room to ex- amine it. However, time passed on, and he did not move, only now and then the ohains rattled alittie, as If he were turning in hia aleep. At laat the total darkneas began to give way a faint grayneaa oame stealing through the little window. The night was not going to last forever I Slowly the grayneaa grew towud light, very alowly bat unoeaaingly, and I oould dimly aee every object in the room,â€" when at laat I heard footatepa out- aide, then the key put in the look, and â€" oh, how alowly Iâ€" tomed. It waa my deliverer. All the terror of the paat night and the joy of ttie preaent moment seemed now and- decly crushed and preaaed upon my head. I waa mad for the time, I auppoae. I waited till the door waa open and then fled out Into the anow. 'Don't go In there 1 ' I aald In a whiaper like a abridc.

They were no more than in time, aa the wretohed man waa eacapmg from one of the windowa just aa the;^ oame up, and they had a aevere â- draggle with him before he waa overpower- ed. The aame morning he waa reatored to the aaylnm, where he died a few weeka af- terwarda, worn out with an exoeaa of mad- ness. Ever sir CO that time I have lived in dread of going mad. Indeed, I do not think I am always quite so sane aa other people. But I am aa old wcman now, and I think I shall be spared worse m»dness.
