Up the slope of Linchmeer and the long ascent of Fernhurst he thundered as on the level. and it was not until he had flown down the incline of. Henley Hill and the. grey castle tower of Mid- hurst rose over the coppice in front. that at last the eager outstretched neck sank a. little on the breast, and the breath came quick and last.

Above stretched one unbroken arch oli peaceful blue. with a. sun which was sinking down to- ward. the Hampshire hills. Through the deep “heather. down the gulliec. over the watercourses, up the broken slopes, Pommers flew. his great heart bursting with rage. and every fibre! quivering: at the indignities which he had endured. . ~ GREAT HORSE PASSED. He had heped to sweep on his rider. but Nigel‘ sank low on the hearing beck. with his nee buried iq the ay- ing mane. The rough launches rup- ed him rudely, but never ehook his spirit nor his grip. Bearing. plung- ing “end struggling Pommera broke through the gaming grove and was out on the broad gtmtch oh Bentley Down. He turned with a rhsh and one magnificent deer-like bound carried him over the four-loot fence. Nigel‘e hat had flown off, and his yellow curls streamed! behind him as he rose and fell in the leap. They were in the water meadow new. and the rippling‘ stream twenty feet wile gleamed in [rout of them, running oown to the main current on the Wey. The yellow horqe gathered hie launches under him and flew over like an 9.! row, He took of! from be- hind a boulder and cleared a torso- boeh anthem sida. Two am still mark the leap from hoot-mark to hoot-mark, and they are eleven good paces apart. Under the hen;- ins branch of the great oak-tree on the Luther side (that Querone Tiltor- diene is etil shown as the bound ot the Abbey’s immediate precinta) the rose high and meneeins at the touch. He loathed this place, these people. all and everything, which threatened hie Lreedom. He would have done with them forever. he would see them no more] Let him away to the ut- termost parts of. the earth. to the great plains where freedom is.

For. as they passed through Tiltord, they had seen home and man walking side by side and head by head up the manor-house lane. And when they had raised their lanthorns on the pair it was none other than the young Squire himself. who was leading home. as a shepherd leads a lamb. the tear- some yellow horse on Crooksbory‘.
