THE END OF THE DUELARSENE LUPINCHAPTER ITHE MILLIONAIRE'S DAUGHTERThe rays of the September sun flooded the great halls of the oldchateau of the Dukes of Charmerace, lighting up with their mellow glowthe spoils of so many ages and many lands, jumbled together with theexecrable taste which so often afflicts those whose only standard ofvalue is money. The golden light warmed the panelled walls and oldfurniture to a dull lustre, and gave back to the fading gilt of theFirst Empire chairs and couches something of its old brightness. Itillumined the long line of pictures on the walls, pictures of dead andgone Charmeraces, the stern or debonair faces of the men, soldiers,statesmen, dandies, the gentle or imperious faces of beautiful women.It flashed back from armour of brightly polished steel, and drew dullgleams from armour of bronze. The hues of rare porcelain, of the richinlays of Oriental or Renaissance cabinets, mingled with the hues ofthe pictures, the tapestry, the Persian rugs about the polished floorto fill the hall with a rich glow of colour.
