living on the credit of that Indeed Have the paper with you properly For an answer I took it from my pocket and laid it before him at the same time with a start that the communica tion given to me the day before had been left in my room in the hurry of escaping from the tavern He picked up the docu- ment I before him glanced at it and wen rising went to a bookcase which on being opened disclosed a small strongbox This he unlocked and taking from it several rouleaux of coin laid them on the table You must have money you cannot get ready without it You will have many ex- penses Listen I shall not intrust you with a packet to General Pigot The ture k too hazardous Tell him to hold Newport to the last extremity and I will start to his relief within two weeks I shall also communicate with him by land He aroe again and clasping his hands behind him walked up and down the floor I saw that the man was wishing to come to a point against which just then he was shy lag and as tine was an object to hoped to help him the difficulty by remarking The matter of the cruise fe plain enough but your excellency hinted at instructions Yes yes he answered It was that I referred to a moment since lie hesitated and theta pointing to my arm continued Perhaps your wound would cripple you floe active service No your excellency I answered hur- riedly it is about healed Will you then undertake to to ia

men with- out the lines Very good he returned sitting down and pulling paper toward him on which he wrote rapidly then pushing the writing away he began talking with the feather of the quill betwixt his teeth Here is your pass said he laying his hand over the paper and looking hard at me end there is your gold There is more to rocs Xo violence no brute violence What would you do if necessity your sinking the ship If if if The pen in his mouth gave his voice the character of a snarl his eyes flashed and he bent forward eagerly 1 caught a glimpse of the villainy of tbis man and without winking promptly replied Save myself your honor As though smitten by a revulsion of feel ing he started back and exclaimed Xo no Not that Great God not quite so quick What a tool you are In there M sihcr way Let me test M it fevfcfil jr H iiHJMrlti the meaning of this The last remark was drawn from him by a noise of controversy in the without the sudden opening of the dor and the of a female unannounced She was veiled but before the door bad fairly Closed behind her with a graceful move of her arm she uncovered her face and I involuntarily- came to my feet I recognized young girl whose beauty had struck me as 1 was about leaving tbe Sprite Her ryes were red from weeping and in- deed the tears on her cheeks were as appar- ent as the few raindrops on her silken hood as well as on her plain though elegant coo tame Over her white brow and from under the back of her head covering there strayed a few locks of hair which some might have called red lint red they were not being the richest of auburn and of such a nature that the damp of the air had curled them into- a of crisp waves If tears were on her cheeks there were none in tees voice as she advanced before the Englishman As she came to within a pace of hiss she halted and demanded in a low firm tone which for kin its firmness was sweet Sir Henry where is my brother Clinton dropped his eyes while a heavy frown contracted his smooth forehead For an instant he appeared about to give way to temper but finally unpuckered his brows and replied easily as though patronizing petulant child Mjr doer Miss Gertrude you must ttsk your aunt Call your Mrs Badely no aunt of mine Sir Henry She may be my guardian but none of her blood flows in my veins Be that as it may sir she has but this moment neierred me to you My brother has been gone a week You have promised each day that I should see hjm tbe next Sir Henry where is my brother The decidedly dafaat tone of the last de mind made me wowier at the audacity of the speaker but instead of arousing the tem- per of the man to whom it was addressed it made him rather draw into himself though not without an effort at selfcontrol Again be aroM aad paced the floor behind his desk but finally stopping in his walk took a long breath u if he had arrived at a determina- tion and suddenly turning to me said Lounsbury the plan I mentioned will remain in abeyance My dear Ger- trude be continued addressing the girl I have been wring to save you from pain as you will have the truth I will give it to yM Your brother has been discovered act- ing in the interests of the enemy Ills of lease was dear and he has acknowledged it He was arrested our week ago this day He was tried fairly convicted and sentenced to be baaged ac a spy Yesterday he perished- in the fire at Crugers Wharf before tbe sen- tence could be executed Now at these words I guessed this was the girl whom I had been expected to kidnap Sad make way with and my first impulse quickly controlled was to blurt out the fact of her own danger It had heroine plain however that Clinton could not screw his courage to going the length of even indi- rectly taking her life munch as he wished for some reason to be rid of her It was strong ly forced on me that be was being used as a catspaw by the woman who was known to powerfully influence his actions even to the extent of altering the plans of a campaign As he jabbed his statement I knew he had told the girl an untruth or be had been lying to me as be had informed me that the brother was about to be hanged no mention having been made of his death by fire In tautly there value to mind my encounter with the scorched patriot and I instinctive iy strung the two together I expected to witness tbe collapse of the girl as the British general completed his sentence but there came nothing of the sort J I I over se- cret I Ii the Yes tea c yin I I I a I I mass i but I f L p J a s indorsed aid yen then save motive dss ended tale hall en- try Clinton apt ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ ¬ > > Instead she stood tall and graceful with lips apart and eyes widely strained Her color faded a trifle but after a breath or two she answered stoutly Gen Clinton that is false My brother held no communication with anyone beyond the lines at Kingsbridge You have overshot your mark It was 1 sir who informed Gen Washington of your intended movement into the Jerseys but my poor brother has been doomed because he is in possession of facts which would compromise Sir Henry Clinton were they known abroad I too know them Work your will on me a girl I care not but if you injure a hair of the head of Beverly all England shall know how Mr Henry Clinton obtained his knighthood together with other matters which would make interesting reading Two years Gen Clinton had challenged Lord George Germain of the British ministry In fear of his life Germain promised a title and the command of the army in America if he would withdraw the chal- lenge Clinton did so obtained leave of ab sence from America went to London and was knighted by the king Returning he succeeded Gen Howe who resigned short- ly before the evacuation of Philadelphia The affair caused great scandal at the time By his appearance here is doubtless one of your familiars she went on indicating me by a fine look of intense scorn Order him to apprehend and make way with Gertrude King who by the help of God has been is now and always will be devoted to her own land and its liberties As she uttered these words she was sub lime Her figure swayed slightly her eyes sparkled and her voice rang like a bell There was no effect of bravado but it was apparent that with her there had come a crisis and she had thrown off her mask either because it was no longer of use or for the purpose of sacrificing herself for her brother Her great beauty her youth her fearlessness ay even the grace of her pose set off by her faultless costume gave weight to the words which on her listeners pro- duced profound though widely differing emotions My own first feeling was that of utter as I marked her great courage and heard the inspiring eloquence of her last sentence my next that if necessary I would risk my life to assist her if my way to do so was made plain My admiration ray respect was beyond measure I was al- most moved to defy Clinton to his face there and then when that party exposed the spirit in which he had listened lie had halted and whirled about as she threw at him the falsity of his statement and as she progressed his face turned from white to red and from red to purple On her finishing he hung a moment as though to gather the full import of her words and then banged his fist on the table as he ex- claimed You doubly damned rebel wench You spy How dare you use such language here and to me So you have taken advantage of your housing with My God what a fool your aunt has been Madam he suddenly thundered you are under arrest Sir she said cutting him short if I run I will be released You have now an opportunity to confiscate my property as you have my brothers Doubtless this sum will also go tj enrich your paramour You have taken me for a child but I am not the helpless girl you think me I know your riotives They are money and fear and Mrs Badcly And now I have but one de- mand Gen Sir Henry Clinton and one more Wit Your personal secrets aro- tj you are welcome to as you will but hold it until the right prevails but this I will have pass beyond your lines at Kingsbridge The statement will simply show the extent of your falsity and the ease with which it is overcome My brother At that moment the Iud door for a second time was thrown open violently by a female and now it was Mrs Uadely who reentered There was no affectation about her as she hurried in and closed it behind her With her hand on the knob her face blanched ash color and her whole figure trem- bling sh pointed to the defiant girl and burst out She is a traitor she is a traitor Let her not go hence 0 Sir Henry Sir Henry be has escaped He has been tack and taken all those She got no further but tottering slightly gradually sank to the floor in a or faint CHAPTER X THE HEROISM OF GERTRUDE KING Gen Clinton stood as if stricken with catalepsy while I sprang to Mrs IJadely Discarding the useless disguise I threw sling from me and lifting the bore her to the couch As her aunt sank to the floor the girl had given a violent start and as though taking for granted that the escaped party referred to was her brother she raised her hands and exclaimed fervently Thank God thank God Then the emotion she had bravely suppressed when her misfortune seemed at its height over- came on the relaxation of tbe strain and she broke into a torrent of tears Giving no further attention to Mrs Bade ly I turned and looked at He had sunk into his chair and was undergoing a strong inward struggle but the expression of his face boded little good to the girl who still stood before hint In a moment he straightened himself and pointing to the weeping maiden sternly said Capt Lounsbury call my orderly and see that this woman is placed in confine- ment Report to me when it is done It appeared that time moment had arrived when 1 must declare myself for to allow this heroic girl to suffer the indignity of arrest while I could prevent it was not in my books I was about to turn on him mr gnawer when she lifted her head arid her wit eyes toward Clinton sell as firmly as she had before Gen Clinton I care little for what you nay do to me The only load I had has been lifted My brother is free Listen He was never arrested as a never tried in any court serer condemned to be hanged I knew he was to be re- moved from Iris prison of that I was in formed by one of your own officers and I came here to his whereabouts Is not my socalled beauty as powerful for my interests as your commands for yours Look to yourself Sir Knight What 1 know of you will find a ready car but Sir Henry Clinton you will scarce have the courage to demand an earldom from the one who bears it Time utterly fearless way in which she spoke coupled with sarcasm and a taunt the nature of which I then knew nothing drove the British general into a fury Springing- to his feet and again slamming the table he shouted Arrest her sir Arrest her instantly Stop her vile mouth Good God am 1 to be thus boarded by a selfconfessed trait ress By this I had gotten to a pitch of spirits that ripened me for any deed insuring UIQ safety of the gallant girl and yet my head was left clear enough to see the possible consequence of my act Nay Sir Henry I replied clearly but without moving I shall never arrest her nor see her arrested here rather would 1 be- fore l1 MiNl nowa real pret- ended m itls direct- ing spoken red t d f L i Clin-

means this treason sir Wi As he moved from behind the table took a couple of strides toward the seeing his intention was tc call the and that for me it was now the or the scaffold in an instant I was ahead of him and quickly locking the door threw the key through the open I was too soon Through the heavy mahogany Ir heard the approach of hurried footsteps and the knob twisted while yet my on it With ah oath Clinton turned toward the table and grasped his sword but again I anticipated his action and was before him Laying ray left hand on the weapon 1 pressed It down while with my right 1 pushed him ito his chair and held him there Pe pIed as though fearing assassination and gasped then after- a fruitless effort at freeing himself he shouted What Capt LJunsbury would you mur der I rapidly shifted my grip and to prevent his farther clamoring placed my hand over his mouth pinning his head fast to the back of the chair Call me not I exclaimed in my excitement I have been damned by that weeks enough Know me as Donald Thorndyke an enemy to tbe king Quick now said i turning to the girl Here Is a pass ready written Get away out of the window I will cover your go ing And with that I snatched the writ- ing from the table and held it toward this time there was a violent knocking at the dpor and some shouting in the hall but taking no notice of the shortness oC time allowed for her escape the girl stepped close to me ad peering into my face with surprise upon her own counten- ance said Are you from Washington Nay miss I answered 1 am but a freelanot not from him but for him to the end Hurry your leaving and God bless you brave lass But y you Must 1 take the sacrifieaT1 I ant already known and outlawed Hurrtf Heaven help the first man who en ters this room now If you would prevent bloodshed leave at once 1 will Live for your brothers sake Get gone get gone Taking the paper I had pushed into her hand she gave me a smile that was a the memory of which conies to me as I write Turning she hastened to the bal cony I saw her gather her skirts climb over the light iron rail and matter accomplished as the window sill was a scares six feet from the soil of the gar den below And then I turned attention to myself and my own desperate situation There was nothing to do but follow her immediately if I to escape but know ing that every seconds delay helped the maiden I still held the general so that he could neither cry out nor prove aggressive and so continued holding him for perhaps the splice of a minute In the meantime the attacks on the door were becoming more violent and even the one through which Clinton had entered was now being tried Mrs Badely who bad been through the episode suddenly r e er md rafted herself up- right on tbe couch when seeing ine appar- ently strangling her lover she set up a shrieking that must have driven to despera tion those without TO BE CONTINUED STUCK TO HIM Ilic Annoyins Experience of nri Eng- lish Disioi with n Horsy

Yes your excellency If it be feasibleIt is it is and you shall bewell rewarded Have money

Xo your excellency I nothing buty promise prize money I am living onthe credit of thatIndeed Have the paper with you

properlyFor an answer I took it from my pocket

and laid it before him at the same timewith a start that the communica

tion given to me the day before had beenleft in my room in the hurry of escapingfrom the tavern He picked up the docu-ment I before him glanced at it andwen rising went to a bookcase which onbeing opened disclosed a small strongboxThis he unlocked and taking from it severalrouleaux of coin laid them on the table

You must have money you cannot getready without it You will have many ex-penses Listen I shall not intrust youwith a packet to General Pigot Theture k too hazardous Tell him to holdNewport to the last extremity and I willstart to his relief within two weeks Ishall also communicate with him by land

He aroe again and clasping his handsbehind him walked up and down the floorI saw that the man was wishing to come toa point against which just then he was shylag and as tine was an object tohoped to help him the difficulty byremarking

The matter of the cruise fe plainenough but your excellency hinted at

instructionsYes yes he answered It was that I

referred to a moment since lie hesitatedand theta pointing to my arm continued

Perhaps your wound would cripple youfloe active service

No your excellency I answered hur-riedly it is about healed

Will you then undertake to to iabort to abduct a person avd and

perhaps deliver her to P otrM a woman K-

It is a woman In fact my position isdelicate I roust not be known in the mat-ter She is troublesome to ell herbrother is about to be executed I wish to

her from this knowledge Do youfollow me She is to be the victim of anunauthorized outrage to beyour own No ill treatment no unnecessaryviolence of course You be padyou shall be well paid Get the boatready be ready within five days Can Irely on you Then report for final detaisIs there anything more

your excellency there is more Ihall need a pass Some of my men with-

out the linesVery good he returned sitting down

and pulling paper toward him on which hewrote rapidly then pushing the writingaway he began talking with the feather ofthe quill betwixt his teeth

Here is your pass said he laying hishand over the paper and looking hard atme end there is your gold There is moreto rocs Xo violence no brute violenceWhat would you do if necessityyour sinking the ship If if if

The pen in his mouth gave his voice thecharacter of a snarl his eyes flashed andhe bent forward eagerly 1 caught aglimpse of the villainy of tbis man andwithout winking promptly replied

Save myself your honorAs though smitten by a revulsion of feel

ing he started back and exclaimedXo no Not that Great God not

quite so quick What a tool you are Inthere M sihcr way Let metest M it fevfcfil jr H iiHJMrltithe meaning of this

The last remark was drawn from him bya noise of controversy in the withoutthe sudden opening of the dor and the

of a female unannounced She wasveiled but before the door bad fairly Closedbehind her with a graceful move of her armshe uncovered her face and I involuntarily-came to my feet I recognized younggirl whose beauty had struck me as 1 wasabout leaving tbe Sprite

Her ryes were red from weeping and in-

deed the tears on her cheeks were as appar-ent as the few raindrops on her silken hoodas well as on her plain though elegant cootame Over her white brow and from underthe back of her head covering there strayeda few locks of hair which some might havecalled red lint red they were not being therichest of auburn and of such a nature thatthe damp of the air had curled them into-a of crisp waves

If tears were on her cheeks there werenone in tees voice as she advanced before theEnglishman As she came to within a paceof hiss she halted and demanded in a lowfirm tone which for kin its firmness wassweet

Sir Henry where is my brotherClinton dropped his eyes while a heavy

frown contracted his smooth forehead Foran instant he appeared about to give way totemper but finally unpuckered his browsand replied easily as though patronizingpetulant child

Mjr doer Miss Gertrude you must ttskyour aunt

Call your Mrs Badely no aunt of mineSir Henry She may be my guardian butnone of her blood flows in my veins Bethat as it may sir she has but this momentneierred me to you My brother has beengone a week You have promised each daythat I should see hjm tbe next Sir Henrywhere is my brother

The decidedly dafaat tone of the last demind made me wowier at the audacity ofthe speaker but instead of arousing the tem-per of the man to whom it was addressed itmade him rather draw into himself thoughnot without an effort at selfcontrol Againbe aroM aad paced the floor behind his deskbut finally stopping in his walk took a longbreath u if he had arrived at a determina-tion and suddenly turning to me said

Lounsbury the plan I mentionedwill remain in abeyance My dear Ger-trude be continued addressing the girl Ihave been wring to save you from painas you will have the truth I will give it toyM Your brother has been discovered act-ing in the interests of the enemy Ills oflease was dear and he has acknowledged itHe was arrested our week ago this day Hewas tried fairly convicted and sentenced tobe baaged ac a spy Yesterday he perished-in the fire at Crugers Wharf before tbe sen-tence could be executed

Now at these words I guessed this was thegirl whom I had been expected to kidnapSad make way with and my first impulsequickly controlled was to blurt out the factof her own danger It had heroine plainhowever that Clinton could not screw hiscourage to going the length of even indi-rectly taking her life munch as he wished forsome reason to be rid of her It was strongly forced on me that be was being used as acatspaw by the woman who was known topowerfully influence his actions even to theextent of altering the plans of a campaignAs he jabbed his statement I knew he hadtold the girl an untruth or be had been lyingto me as be had informed me that thebrother was about to be hanged no mentionhaving been made of his death by fire Intautly there value to mind my encounterwith the scorched patriot and I instinctiveiy strung the two together

I expected to witness tbe collapse of thegirl as the British general completed hissentence but there came nothing of the sort

Instead she stood tall and graceful with lipsapart and eyes widely strained Her colorfaded a trifle but after a breath or two sheanswered stoutly

Gen Clinton that is false My brotherheld no communication with anyone beyondthe lines at Kingsbridge You have overshotyour mark It was 1 sir who informed GenWashington of your intended movementinto the Jerseys but my poor brother hasbeen doomed because he is in possession offacts which would compromise Sir HenryClinton were they known abroad I tooknow them Work your will on me a girl

I care not but if you injure a hair of thehead of Beverly all England shall know howMr Henry Clinton obtained his knighthoodtogether with other matters which wouldmake interesting reading Two years

Gen Clinton had challenged LordGeorge Germain of the British ministryIn fear of his life Germain promised

a title and the command of the army inAmerica if he would withdraw the chal-lenge Clinton did so obtained leave of absence from America went to London andwas knighted by the king Returning hesucceeded Gen Howe who resigned short-ly before the evacuation of PhiladelphiaThe affair caused great scandal at the timeBy his appearance here is doubtless one ofyour familiars she went on indicating meby a fine look of intense scorn Order himto apprehend and make way with GertrudeKing who by the help of God has been isnow and always will be devoted to her ownland and its liberties

As she uttered these words she was sublime Her figure swayed slightly her eyessparkled and her voice rang like a bellThere was no effect of bravado but it wasapparent that with her there had come acrisis and she had thrown off her maskeither because it was no longer of use orfor the purpose of sacrificing herself for herbrother Her great beauty her youth herfearlessness ay even the grace of her poseset off by her faultless costume gave weightto the words which on her listeners pro-duced profound though widely differingemotions

My own first feeling was that of utteras I marked her great courage

and heard the inspiring eloquence of her lastsentence my next that if necessary Iwould risk my life to assist her if my wayto do so was made plain My admirationray respect was beyond measure I was al-

most moved to defy Clinton to his face thereand then when that party exposed the spiritin which he had listened

lie had halted and whirled about as shethrew at him the falsity of his statementand as she progressed his face turned fromwhite to red and from red to purple Onher finishing he hung a moment as thoughto gather the full import of her words andthen banged his fist on the table as he ex-claimed

You doubly damned rebel wench Youspy How dare you use such language hereand to me So you have taken advantage ofyour housing with My God what a foolyour aunt has been Madam he suddenlythundered you are under arrest

Sir she said cutting him short if Irun I will be released You have now anopportunity to confiscate my property asyou have my brothers Doubtless this sumwill also go tj enrich your paramour Youhave taken me for a child but I am not thehelpless girl you think me I know yourriotives They are money and fear andMrs Badcly And now I have but one de-

mand Gen Sir Henry Clinton and onemore Wit Your personal secrets aro-

tj you are welcome to as you will but holdit until the right prevails but this I willhave pass beyond your lines atKingsbridge The statement will simplyshow the extent of your falsity and the easewith which it is overcome My brother

At that moment the Iud door for a secondtime was thrown open violently by a femaleand now it was Mrs Uadely who reenteredThere was no affectation about her as shehurried in and closed it behind her Withher hand on the knob her face blanched

ash color and her whole figure trem-bling sh pointed to the defiant girl andburst out

She is a traitor she is a traitor Let hernot go hence 0 Sir Henry Sir Henry behas escaped He has been tack and taken

all thoseShe got no further but tottering slightly

gradually sank to the floor in a orfaint

CHAPTER XTHE HEROISM OF GERTRUDE KING

Gen Clinton stood as if stricken withcatalepsy while I sprang to Mrs IJadelyDiscarding the useless disguise I threwsling from me and lifting the bore herto the couch As her aunt sank to the floorthe girl had given a violent start and asthough taking for granted that the escapedparty referred to was her brother sheraised her hands and exclaimed fervently

Thank God thank God Then theemotion she had bravely suppressed whenher misfortune seemed at its height over-came on the relaxation of tbe strain andshe broke into a torrent of tears

Giving no further attention to Mrs Badely I turned and looked at He hadsunk into his chair and was undergoing astrong inward struggle but the expressionof his face boded little good to the girl whostill stood before hint In a moment hestraightened himself and pointing to theweeping maiden sternly said

Capt Lounsbury call my orderly andsee that this woman is placed in confine-ment Report to me when it is done

It appeared that time moment had arrivedwhen 1 must declare myself for to allow thisheroic girl to suffer the indignity of arrestwhile I could prevent it was not in mybooks I was about to turn on him mrgnawer when she lifted her head arid

her wit eyes toward Clinton sell asfirmly as she had before

Gen Clinton I care little for what younay do to me The only load I had has beenlifted My brother is free ListenHe was never arrested as a never triedin any court serer condemned to behanged I knew he was to be re-moved from Iris prison of that I was informed by one of your own officers and Icame here to his whereabouts Isnot my socalled beauty as powerful for myinterests as your commands for yours Lookto yourself Sir Knight What 1 know ofyou will find a ready car but Sir HenryClinton you will scarce have the courage todemand an earldom from the one who bearsit

Time utterly fearless way in which shespoke coupled with sarcasm and a taunt thenature of which I then knew nothing drovethe British general into a fury Springing-to his feet and again slamming the table heshouted

Arrest her sir Arrest her instantlyStop her vile mouth Good God am 1 tobe thus boarded by a selfconfessed traitress

By this I had gotten to a pitch of spiritsthat ripened me for any deed insuring UIQ

safety of the gallant girl and yet my headwas left clear enough to see the possibleconsequence of my act

Nay Sir Henry I replied clearly butwithout moving I shall never arrest hernor see her arrested here rather would 1

As he moved from behind thetable took a couple of strides towardthe seeing his intention was tccall the and that for me it was nowthe or the scaffold in an instantI was ahead of him and quickly locking thedoor threw the key through the open

I was too soon Through the heavymahogany Ir heard the approach of hurriedfootsteps and the knob twisted while yetmy on it

With ah oath Clinton turned toward thetable and grasped his sword but again Ianticipated his action and was before himLaying ray left hand on the weapon 1

pressed It down while with my right 1pushed him ito his chair and held himthere Pe pIed as though fearing

assassination and gasped then after-a fruitless effort at freeing himself heshouted

What Capt LJunsbury would you murder

I rapidly shifted my grip and to preventhis farther clamoring placed my hand overhis mouth pinning his head fast to the backof the chair

Call me not I exclaimed inmy excitement I have been damned bythat weeks enough Know me asDonald Thorndyke an enemy to tbe king

Quick now said i turning to the girlHere Is a pass ready written Get away

out of the window I will cover your going And with that I snatched the writ-ing from the table and held it toward

this time there was a violent knockingat the dpor and some shouting in the hallbut taking no notice of the shortness oC timeallowed for her escape the girl stepped closeto me ad peering into my face with

surprise upon her own counten-ance said

Are you from WashingtonNay miss I answered 1 am but a

brave lassBut y you Must 1 take the

sacrifieaT1I ant already known and outlawed

Hurrtf Heaven help the first man who enters this room now If you would preventbloodshed leave at once 1 will

Live for your brothers sake Getgone get gone

Taking the paper I had pushed into herhand she gave me a smile that was a

the memory of which conies to me asI write Turning she hastened to the balcony I saw her gather her skirts climbover the light iron rail and matter

accomplished as the window sill wasa scares six feet from the soil of the garden below

And then I turned attention to myself andmy own desperate situation

There was nothing to do but follow herimmediately if I to escape but knowing that every seconds delay helped themaiden I still held the general so that hecould neither cry out nor prove aggressiveand so continued holding him for perhapsthe splice of a minute

In the meantime the attacks on the doorwere becoming more violent and even theone through which Clinton had entered wasnow being tried Mrs Badely who bad been
