T was a warm, still night, lit by the soft radiance of a rising moon and full of languorous fragrance of honeysuckle, while from the shad- owy woods swlelme soft, bubbling notes of a nightingale. Sir Richard, glancing at his com- panion, espied a glistering tendril of hair, a slim, proud-arched foot and a voluminous cloak. “Aye, me, ma'm,” he exclaimed, sigh- ing heavily, “'tis night most apt to sigh- 1ul dalliance, how say you?” “That I would be alone, sir?” % “Nay, but consider yon bright moon. “Indeed.

I am he, ma'm, upon my honor.” And now as he went beside her, his somber eyes staring down at white road or up at brilliant moon, she looked at him often and with ever-increasing un- ease. “Come, proceed, lady, I beg!” And now his eyes were twinkling, his lips twisted in their sardonic smile; she met his eyes and—spoke, yet in her tone was subtle change. **Tis said, Sir Richard, that you were a rebel and—condemned to death.” “All true, ma'm. - Being younger then and greater fool, I, for sake o’ lady frail as fair, enlisted for the Pretender, was taken at Sherriffmuir, clapped in prison, escaped the ax by a miracle—and was finally pardoned.” “You did this—for a woman?” “Well, "twas 10 years ago, ma'am, and / But | what more o' myself?"” “Well,” said she unwillingly, “’tis ru- mored you do consort with thieves— highwaymen—" “Nay, nay, gentlemen o' the H!ghl Toby, rather!

And yonder is your inn.” "And he nodded where, across the village green and close beside a square church tower, rose the chimneys of the Guyfford Arms, a great rambling place of jutting gables. They were close upon the inn when from the wide-flung casement of an upper chamber rose a sudden tuneful roar and the words: “Of Helen we the praises sing, Our love and worship tellin’, To Helen let our glasses ring To Hel, to Hel, to Helen—" “Ay, hark to 'em!” said Sir Richard. “Poor fools, sorry, misguided wretches, tossing down bumpers to Some regard. less she who is probably smiling on an- other at this moment.
