Beside him stood his suaster, a showman known as “Crafty Eyes" on account of a cast and @ squint that lent his face a sly ex- pression, + Crafty Byes had bought the lad some years before from a troupe of gypsies and had taught him to become a con- tortionist and to do acrobatie tricks In company with Taras, a half-starved ape. Thus they travelled from fair to fatr, earning pence for the showman, The boy's strange speech concerning his origin drew more money from the crowds than did his contortions with the ape. Where he had learned the odd words Jean himself did not know. His mind was in confusion concerning his Past. Tho showman beat, kicked and starved him and the ape, but Jehan's spirit was not yet wholly broken. It was at the grand fair at Fecamp in October, 1637, that the elderly man on horseback pushed through the crowd and, after hearing the boy's tale, said angrily: “Iam the Vicomte de Bresly of Pert- gord and I warn you, showman, if you bring that little Nar into my county I'll have you flogged and branded, There 1s no noble family tn all France named de Bault.”" Mo rode away, The bov half started to follow him. Perigord! That was the name! He remembered it now—the name of the county from which he had come. Late that night as the-boy lay miser- ablo and sore from a beating on his scanty bed of straw in one corner of an inn stable, where his master had chained him to a post, the little window above his head was darkened by a man's face and a voice whispered: .|_ “If you would Ike to escape, take this file, cut the thin chain and climb out of the window. I will be waiting for you at the gate.” Overjoyed, the boy set to work, Reaching the gate five minutes later he found a tall man clad all in black and mounted on a coal-black horse awaltiog him, The man had a long, pale, severe face,!and at sight of it Jehan almost shrank back. But fear of Crafty Eyes urged him forward and at a word of command he sprang on to the bluck horse behind the man jn black, are And now a new era opened before the boy. His new ‘master neither beat, starved, chained nor overworked him. Yet Jehan lived in‘utter terror, For the man in black was none other than Solomon Notredame, the-ramous astrologer.
