Down, down I went, until presently I i reached a sort of landing. which broad- l ened into a little irregular chamber. I Here a ray of light caught my eye. and t I followed it till I happened upon I ' small door in the wall. A huge key I was in the lock. but the bolt was not turned. and by wrenching hard I , forced the door open. I now looked ; down upon the waters of the moat, in . which my tiny flame danced In the £03m: darkness. ’ I felt in my pocket where my re- volver lay safely. and. seizing the can- die, plunged into the evii looking hole. A stairway of stone ran downward, but very steeply. and i had the utmost difliculty in preventing myself from pitching forward against 'the rough masonry oi' the opposite wall. The .walls brushed me upon either side as I descended. so narrow was the tunnel; "Come." said I to myself. “I think 1 know where friend Hood 1:. and this begins to get interesting."

Slowly I groped In the darknes: strw-k a mutt-II, relightlng the ca Then I turned to the slab of stone. With a new zest I examined the floor. and. sure enough. one of these chests had been pulled out from the wall as far as its own width. I peeped over it, illuminating the space beyond. The slab of stone which the box had cov- ered was like the other flags that made the floor of the dungeon. I leaned low- er. and, sitting crossways on the chest. pushed the slab with my foot. It clanked dully to the kick of my heel; but. what was even more amazing to me, it seemed to shudder and tremble beneath mv.

I had not reached a point very far from the door on this second round of investigation when my glance slid oil! at a venture and al- most mcchanicaliy rested upon the treasure chests. Something unfamiliar in their appearance vaguely persisted in my thoughts. I left of! fumbling with the wall and stood gazing at them. They took my eyes with inter- est. and. crossing the room, I shed the light upon the cases, fingering the gold pieces under the broken lid. One. two. threeâ€"they stood exactly asâ€"no, that was the point. They had been moved! “Very well." said I. “I will unridvdle this or be hanged for a felon," and I set to work ppqn the walls. Inch by too. that the means of escape must lie within the dungeon. Once more I in- spected the huge oaken door and shook my head. Was there any flaw in the wood? Perchance there was a secret spring in a panel. I went o‘Ver the surface carefully, but found nothing. CHAPTER XV. stared at the blank stones, but they returned no sign from their nnavailing grayness. The silence began to speak in that gloomy place. Recovering myself, I put down the lantern and considered. First I put the key in my pocket. a definite precaution which was to influence strangely the history of this narrative. It was not conceivable that any one could have opened the heavy door when it was locked, yet the prisoner .Was gone. “If he is gone," said I aloud in order to reassure myself, “he must needs have gone by some hole." . That was incontrovertible. I decided. ' He was not there. Hastily I flashed the lantern round the walls. There .was no sign of Hood. The dungeon was empty. my custom. Then. turning, I cast'the light toward the boxes upon which Hood had sat. hurry to secure the interview before that I entered the dungeon carefully and locked the doc: behind me, as _was Dinner was over. The clock In the hall had chimed half past 8. I expect- _ed Sercombe at 9 o‘clock and must and complacently contemplating an honorable settlement whi'ch would rid us of our troubles, banish these Wretch- ed intmdergand leave us to the com- fox-table enjoyment of our share in the treasure of the Vyvians. In some such mood as this I made the journey to the keep, flattering my- self with the success or my diplomacy that. after all, Hood would not prove obdurate and that the end of the war- fare was almost in sight. the other. I foresaw that I could im- prove my own position very substan- tially by this system of balance, and I determined to go now forthright to Hood on the same errand. He had failed me in the morning, but perhaps he would have grown wiser in the course of the day’s Imprisonment. There is nothing like solitude and the opportunity of reflection to bring a man to prudence, and now, too. I» had seen Sercombe and had a genuine offer to consider. I came to the conclusion PAGE TWO (Concluded from last week'.) I“ 4!“Qfi"{‘fg;i" ' 1 In the darkness and reflghtlng the candle. COPYRIGHT. 1898.

I reflected that this was a valuabfl adit to the castle. and then upon that fell like a blow the second thoughtâ€" that Hood might have chosen thls mode at escape. in which case the gallery was a drawback to in rather than an advantage.

I decided that Hood must have tied by the sally port and across the moat. Anyhow, he was gone. and it behooved us to renew our defenses and concert our plans afresh. As I reached this conclusion in my, reverie, with, the sound or the waters: pleasantly dniilng my ears, I seemed: to catch sight of a reflection flashing bhck among the tangled lights of the i, pool below me.

About me the hollow, shadowed and hidden under the thick autumn to- liage, was very gently luminous. I had now to determine my position, and I will confess that I could not make the least guess of my where- abouts. A noise of water ran in my ears, coming from my right hand, and toward this I pushed my way. The trees were close, and the undergrth oi' bracken and bushes rendered my ad- vance very gradual, but by degrees I arrived at my point and found, what I f r had lately begun to suspect, that the! sound rose from the little brook. which , here descended the face of a steep ' slope in a pleasant gushing waterfall. 1 A great gout of water, flung from the J stones, dashed in my face quite‘mer- ! rily, and. heated with the confinement ‘ of the gallery and my long and trouble- 5 some passage.

Some time afterward I discovered ahead, but shining as it seemed from a great distance, a point of brightness that grew as I advanced. This was undoubtedly the mouth of the tunnel, and. assured now of reaching some goal and no longer oppressed by the terror of that dismal alley, I in- creased my pace, moving forward to the light with a cheerful alacrity. A sense of suflocation accompanied me, but soon that feeling wore on; and 3 I strode along at a sharper pace, light- 1 ing my way as well as I could with the lantern and stumbling at intervals over the debris of earth and stone which f cumbered the tootway. I must have I gone some 300 yards in this fashion when I began to find the passage grow- 1 and water trickled at intervals on my head. Moreover, I was being grad- ually coated with fllthfrom the sticky nature or the clay through which the gallery was driven and which had, in the course of time, percolated between the stones. But I was now resolved to see the end of the adventure; and so I pushed on, undeterred by the incon- veniences and almost oblivious»: my The second fliglt:led downward even farther than the first, and must,.:I reckoned, have brought me under the foundations of the castle. At the‘hdto tom I was in a square, damp hole, and ' before me stretched a tunnel the height of a tall man and very black andemiry. The thought of entering upon that mysterious and horrid gallery gave me a momentary pause, but, dissipating my torebodings, I marched forward a slight stoop. To add to my discom- fort the roof. which was mdeky put to- gether of huge istones, was very wet. and was soon buried in the bowels of the earth. The tunnel was barely six feet in height, and I was bbliged to walk with this way that Hood had escaped? It seemed certain, and, if so, there was nothing for it but to pocket my chagrin, go back and communicate my melan- choly news to my friends. Regaining my steps, I shut the door and proceed- ed to reclimb .the stairway, but in the act of doing so I paused, for the lan- tern flashing on the obscure corners re- vealed to me a second flight of steps leading still downward from this level. Without hesitation and moved by some excitement I abandoned my first inten- ‘ tion and plunged down this new sell. 1 considering him.

It maddened me to remember the fact and my triumphant diplomacy ‘ of theafternoon in the face of my dis- mal failure and this bland and sprawl- \ ing creature. But I was not to take a rebuilt with my ears down, and so I spoke up as calmly and as politely as himself. “You are right," said 1. “Nine o’clock it was. But, like you. I have been unavoidably delayed. So please don’t apologize.” A smile lit up his faceâ€"and he was always best when he smiledâ€"and his eyes twinkled. gret that I am somewhat lateâ€"'to my appointment with you. It was to have been 9 o’clock. I fancy." Now I recalled what, to say the truth, I had completely forgotten in the adventure which I had experienced LLAL I u “I regret, Mr. Greatorex," said he suavely and pulling at his cigar, with his hat on the back of his head. “1 rev In these desperate considerations I spun out the better part of an hour, at the end of which time the key creaked suddenly in the door, and Sercombe en- tered, bearing a heavy lamp. This he set down upon the rude bench table and turned to me. seating himself in a chair and disposing himself with com- I need not assure you. Although I was ,I but partially awakened to my misfor- 'tune, I had no difficulty in seeing whither it tended. Hood. as I now per- ceived, had discovered the secret gal- lery and had made his escape by that g and not by the sally part. But why I was he lingering about the entrance to the passage? And how came he in company with his allies? I had not contemplated this problem for five minutes are the secret of my capture dawned on me and, I will confess. fairly turned my stomach. Through the9 gallery lay the one road to the I treasure, and Hood and I were the only two people in the drama who knew that. My seizure meant, then, that the way was now clear for him and his enterprise. The treasure of the I Vyvians was at his mercy. Into this cell the Greeks thrust me and, locking the door behind them, dil- appeared. leaving me to my own reflec- tions.

The room was large and airy and had evidently not been used for a granary these many years.
