Fore . street. with the sheriffs eoach swing-ingr behind them, its panels splendid with fresh blue paint and florid blazonry. It's wheels were picked out with yellow, and this scheme of the color extended to the coachman and the two lackeys, who held on at the back by leathern straps. Within the eoach and facing1 the horses sat two judges of the erovrn court and Nisi Prias, both in scarlet, with full wig's and little round patches of blaek plaster, like ventilators, on top;' facing- their lordships sat Sir Felix Felix-Williams, the sheriff, in a lightish uniform of the yeomanry with a great shako nodding- on his knees and a chaplain bolt uprig-ht by his side. Behind trooped a rabble of loafers and small boys, who shouted, "Who bleeds bran?" till the lackeys' calves itched with indignation. I was standing- in the archway of the Fackhorse inn, among the maids and stable boys gathered to see the pageant pass on its way to hear the Assize sermon. At the moment when the trumpets rang out, a very old woman, in a blue camlet cloak, came hobbling out of a grocer's shop &ome twenty yards up the pavement, and tottered down ahead of the procession as fast as her decrepit legs would move. There was no occasion for hurrying to avoid the crowd, but she went by the Packhorse doorway as if swift horsemen were after her, clutching the camlet cloak across her bosom, glancing over her shoulder and working her lips inaud ibly. I could not help remarking the position of her right arm. She held it bent exactly as though she held an Infant to her old breast, and shielded it while she ran. I A few paces beyond the inn door she halted on the edge of the curb, flung another look up the street, and darted across the roadway. There stood a little shop a watchmaker's just opposite, and next to the shop a small ope with one dingy window over it. She vanished up the passage, at the entrance of which I was still staring idly, when, half a minute later, a skinny trembling hand ap peared at the window and drew down the blind. "Who is that old woman?" I asked, touching Caleb, the head hostler, on the shoulder. "What woman?" She in the blue cloak, d'ee mean? an old, ancient, wisht-lookin' body?" 1 "Yes." "A timmersome woman, like?" "That's it." "Cordely Pinsent, widow of old Key Pinsent, that was tailor to all the grandees in the county so far back as I can mind. I can just mind Key Pin sent a great, red, rory-cumtory chap, with a high stock and a wig like King George 'my royal patron' he called 'en. havin by some means got leave to hoist the king's arms over his door. Such mighty portly manners, too. Oh, very spacious, I assure 'ee! Simme I can see the old Trojan now, with his white weskit bulgin' out across his doorway like a shopfront hung wi' jewels. Gout killed 'en. I went to his buryin'; such a stretch of experi ence does a young- man get by the time he reaches my age. God bless your heart alive, I can mind when they were hung for forgery!" "Who were hung?" 'People," he answered, vaguely, "and young Willie Pinsent." ."This woman's son?" "Aye, her son her ewe-lamb of a child. 'Tis very seldom brought up "Yoxrsa chap, 1 abkest tote. ag-en her now, poor soul! She's s4 very old that folks forglts about it. Do 'ee see her curtain yonder, over the ope?" "I saw her pull it down." "Ah, you would if you was lookin' that way. I've a-seed her do t a score o times. Well, when the gout reached Key Pinsent's stomach, and he went off like the snuff of a candle at the age of forty-two, she was left unpro vided, with a son of thirteen to main tain, or go 'pou the parish. She was a Menhennick, tho', from t'other side o' the duchy a very proud family and didn't mean to dip the knee to no body, and all the less because she'd demeaned herseP to start with, by wedding a tailor. But Key Pinsent, by all allowance, was handsome as biases, and well informed np to a point that be read Shakespeare for the mere pleasure ot- "Well, she sold up the stock ia trade aa' hired a couple o n?oa3 tho self still, 99 same rooms yon see and then she ate : less n a mouse an took to needle work, plain an' fancy, for a lot o the gentry's wives round the neig-hbor-hood befriended her, though they had to be sly an' hide that they meant it for a favor, or she'd ha snapped their heads off. An all the while she was teachin her boy and tellin' 'en what ever happened, to remember he was a g-entleman. an lovia en' with all the strength of a desolate woman, "This Willie Pinsent was a comely boy, too; handsome as old Key,' an' quick at his books. He'd a bold, masterful way, bein proud as ever his mother was, an well knowin there wasn't his match in Tregarrick for headwork. Such a beautiful hand he wrote! When he was barely turn ed sixteen they, gave 'en a place in Gregory's bank -Wilkins an Gregory it was in those aged times. He still lived home wi' his mother, rentin a room extra out of his earmn's and turnin' one of the bedrooms into a parlor. That's the very room you're lookin' afc. And when any father in Tregarrick had a bone to pick with his sons he'd advise 'em to take ex ample by' young Pinsent, . 'so clever and good, too, there was no tellin what he mightn't come to in time. "Well-a-Well, to cut it short, the lad was too clever. It came out, after, that he'd took to bettin his em ployers m6ney ag-eil the rich men up at the Royal exchange. An' the up-, shot was that one evenin' while be was drinkin'-tea with his mother in his lovin, light-hearted way, in walks a brace o constables an says, 'Will iam Pinsent, ybttng chap, I arrest thee upon a charge o counterfeitin old Gregory's hand wrrtin Which is a hang in' matter!." !, ' ,. "An' now, sir,' comes .the cur'ous part o' the tale; for, if you'll believe me, this poor woman wouldn't listen to it wouldn't hear a word o't. What! my son Willie,' she flames, hot as Lucifer. 'My son- Willie, a forger; my boy that I have nussed an' reared up, an' studied, marktn all' his pretty takin' ways, since he learned to crawl! Gentlemen,' she says, standin' up an' facin' 'era down, vvhat mother knows her son, if not I I give you my word it's all a mistake. - "Ay, an' she would have it no other. While her son was havin' his trial in jail, she walked the streets with her head high, scornin the folk as passed." 'But her greatest freak was seen when the Assizes came. Sir, she wouldn even go to the trial. She disdained it. An' when that mornin the judges had driven by her window, same as they drove to-day, what d'ee think she did? "She began to lay the cloth up in the parlor yonder, an' there set out the rarest meal, ready for her boy. There was meats,, roasted chickens, an' a tongue, an' a great ham. There was cheese cakes that she made after a little secret of her own, an' a bowl of junket, an inch deep in cream, that bein' his pet dish, an' all kinds o' knick-knacks, wi grapes an' peaches an' apricots, an' decanters o' wine, white an' red. Ay, sir, there was even crackers for mother an' son to pull to gether, with scraps o' poetry inside. An flowers the table was bloomin' with flowers. For weeks she'd been a plannin it, an' all the forenoon she moved about that table, givin' it a touch here an' a touch there, an' tak in' a step back to see how beauti f ul it looked. An' then, as the day wore on, she pulled a chair over by the window, an' sat down an' waited. "In those days a capital trial was kept up till late into the night, if need were. By an by she called up her lit tle servin' gal that was then, (she's a gran'mother now), an' sent her down to the courthouse to learn how far the trial had got, an run back with the news. 'Down runs Selina Mary, an back with word: " 'They're a-Summih up, says she. "Then Mrs. Pinsent went an' lit eight candles. Four she set 'poo, the table an' four 'pon the mantel shelf. You could see the blaze out in the street, an' the room lit np, wi' the flowers, an fruit, an' shinin' glasses. "So the poor woman sat a while longer an' then she calls: 'Selina Mary, run down agen, an' as he comes out, tell 'en to hurry. They must be finished by now.' "The maid was gone twenty min utes this time. The evenin was hot an' the window open; an now all the town that wasn't listenin' to the trial was gathered in front, gazin curously at the woman inside. She was titi vatin' the table for the fiftieth time, an' touchin' up the flowers that had drooped a bit i' the bowls.
