From the jig stepper. standing just out 0!: sight beside the bench, came a low gasp of agony. He let go his. hold. then quickly slipped out of his coat. dropping the garment upon the bench and laying his hat upon it. Next he rolled up the right sleeve of his shirt above the elbow and stood upright again beside the tree. waitingâ€"tensely waiting. May Percy was sneering now. “A brave lover. truly. to doubt the honor of his atfiauced wife!" Then her anger blazed out once more beyond all bounds. "Now. I‘ll never marry you- no, never!

That last made it all worth while to him. “You say well," sneered Sir John in turn. “Doubtloss you thought it a. great joke to hide in his clock. I hope you confined your explorations of his apartment to the interior of the clock." Sir John sprang back. red. angry and laid his hand on his sword. With ac- customed gesture the Frenchman reached for his own, only to find him- self unarmed. Then he cried again: “Quick! Quick! Give me a sword, I say!" you “["swonl, rot-sooth!” sneered Sir John. “i’ll give you a rope, and the horse boys slmll lay It on your bavk.” The Frenchmnn sprang toward him. “Would you hard me strangle you like a dog that in choked?” The Englishman whipped out lulu wagon. “A step nearer and I’ll kill you as one.” Then. returning his sword to his seaward. he changed his tone. “I forgot I wan dealing with a servant.
