One evening two men, or one and a boy, stopped at the inn and asked for lodging. Their horses looked jaded and they walked as if they were in sad need of rest. The boy I never will forget. He was light-haired, slim and had a prominent nose and open countenance, but what an eye! An eye once looked at, to never be forgotten. I have looked in the eye over a hundred times since then, and studied, but know less now than I ever did. That eye was a steel gray, with at times a light in it as soft as the moon's Then at other times it would dart out as if there were diamonds with the fires of hell behind them. and always with a man county, who Henri mnan rays. them t. sinile on His brow always had a frown on?
