Could it be possible that his young friend had met the princess on other occasions than that which Malcolm laughingly described as the lunging of Nejdi and the plunging of his master? It occurred to him now, with a certain chilling misgiving, that he had himself broken in with a be- wildered exclamation when Frank seemed to regard the Princess’s offer of employment in her service as worthy of serious thought. There were other aspects of the affair, as- pects so sinister that he almost re- fused to harbor them. Rather to gain time than with any definite motive, he stooped over the pass again, meaning to read it word for word. “Of course you have not forgotten, uncle, that Mr. Malcolm took us into his confidence so far as to tell us of the curious letter that reached him after the second battle outside Delhi?” said Winifred. “It saved him at Bith- oor when the men from Cawnpore meant to hang him, and, seeing that he had the one article in his posses- sion, it is passing strange that he should have omitted to mention the otherâ€"to me.” Then 'thc man knew what it all meant to the girl. He placed his arm around her neck and drew her towards him. “My poor Winifred!” he murmured, “you might at least hav' been spared such a revelation at this moment.” His sympathy broke down her pride. She sobbed as though her heart would yield beneath the strain. For a little while there was no sound in the room but Winifred’s plaints, while ever and anon the walls shook with the crash or the cannonade and the bursting of shells. Ahmed Ullah, Moulvie of Fyzabad, had a quick ear for the arrival of the native officer of cavalry from Luck- now. “Peace be with thee, brother!“ said he, after a shrewd glance at the travel-worn and blood-stained man and horse. “Thou hast ridden far and fast. What news hast thou of the Jehad, and how fares it at Lucknow?" “With thee be peace!” was the re- ply. “We fought the Nazarenes yester- day at a place called Chinhut, and sent hundreds of the infidel dogs to the fifth circle of Jehannum. The few who escaped our swords are penned up in the Residency, and its walls are now crumbling before our guns. By the“. tomb of Nizam-ud-din, the unbelievers must have fallen ere the present hour.” The moulvie’s wicked eyes sparkled. . “Praise be to Allah and his PrOphet forever!” he cried. “How came this thing to pass?” l “My regiment took the lead,” said the rissaldar, proudly. “We had long chafed under the commands of the huzoors. At last we rose and made short work of our officers. You see hereâ€"” and he touched a rent in his right side, “where one of them tried to stop the thrust that endcd him. But I clave him to the chin, the swine- eater, and when Larrence-sahib at- tacked us at Cniuhut we chased him over the Canal and through the streets.” “Wao! wao! This is good hearing! Wast thou sent by some of the faith- ful to summon me, brother?” “To summon thee and all true be- lievers to the green standard. Yet had I one other object in riding to Rai Bereilly. A certain Nazarene, Mal- colm by name, an officer of the 3rd Cavalry, was hidden by Larrence to make for Allahabad and seek help. The story runs that the Nazarenes are mustering there for a last stand ere we drive them into the sea. This Mal- colm-sahibâ€"” “Enough!” said the moulvie, fierce- ly, for his self-love was wounded at learning that the rebel messenger classed him with the mob. “We have him here. He is in safe keeping when he is in the hands of Ahmed Ullah!” “What!” exclaimed the newcomer with a mighty oath. “Ar? you the saintly Moulvie of Fyzabad?” find?” “You, indeed, O revered one. But rot here. My orders were, once I had secured the Nazarene, to send urgent- iy to Fyzabad and bid you hurry to Lucknow with all speed.” “Ha! Says’t tfiou, friend. Who gave thee this messagg?” - "One whom thou Wilt surely listen to. Yet these things are not for every man to hear. We must speak of them apart” - an- “The moulvie was appeased. Nay. more, his ambition was fired. “Ceme with me into the house. You are in need of food and test. Come! We can talk while you eat.” He drew nearer, but a. woman’s voice was raised from behind a screen in one of the rooms. “Tarry yet a minute, friend. I would learn more of events in Luck- now. Tell us more fully what has taken place there}: “The Begum of Oudh must be obey- ed,” said Ahmed Ullah with a warn- lng glance at the other. He was met with a villainous and intriguing look that would have satstiod Machiavelli, but the screen. “I am, indeed, honored to be the bearer of good tidings to royal ears," said he. “Doubtless I should have been entrusted With letters for your highness were not the city in some confusion owing to the fighting.” V‘Who commahds our the sharp demand. vâ€"‘v‘Aâ€"t pr-esent your hi , ghness, th - web of Rampur represents the KiengN :1 OUdh-n -ifhe Nawab of Rampurl That can- not be tolerated.

Even the fanatical moulvie gasped at this intelligence, though his shrewd wit taught him that the ris- saldar had not exchanged glances with ; him without good reason. “Come, then,” said he, “and eat. I have much occupation, and it will free thy hands if I see to the hanging of the Feringhi forthwith.” “Nay, that cannot be,” was the cool reply, as the two entered the building. “I would not have ridden so hard through the night for the mere string- ing up of one Nazarene. By the holy Itaaba, we gave dozens of them a speedier death yesterday.” “What other errand hast thou? The matter touches only the Nazarene’s at- tempt to reach Allahabad, I suppose?” “That is a small thing. Our bro- thers at Cawnpore may have secured Allahabad and other towns in the Doab long 'ere today. This Frank comes back with me to Lucknow. If I bring him alive I earn a jaghir, if dead, only a few golden mohurs.” “Thy words are strange, brother.” “Not so strange as the need that this Feringhi should live till he reaches Lucknow. He hath in his keeping cer- tain papers that concern the Roshi- nara Begum of Delhi, and he must be made to confess their whereabouts. So far as that goes, what is the differ- ence between a tree in Rai Bareilly and a tree in Lucknow?” “True, if the affair presses. Never- theless, to those who follow me, I may have the bestowing of many jaghirs.’_’ “I will follow thee with all haste, O holy one,” was the answer, 'but a field in a known village is larger than a township in an unknown kingdom. Let me secure this jaghir first, 0 worthy of honor, and I shall come quickly to thee for the others.” “How came it that Nawab of Ram- pur assumed the leadership ?” inquired Ahmed Ullah, his mind reverting to the graver topic of the rebellion. The other scowled sarcastically. “He is of no account,” he muttered. “Was I mistaken in thinking that thou didst not want all my budget opened for a woman? He who gave me a message for thee was the moullah who dwells near the Imambara. Dost thou not know him? Ghazi-ud-din. He sent me. ‘Tell the Moulvie of Fyzabad that he is wantedâ€"ho will understand,’ said he. And now, when I have eaten, lead me to the Feringhi. Leave him to me. Within two days I Shall have more news for thee.” The name of Ghazi-ud-din, a fire- brand of the front rank in Lucknow, proved to Ahmed Ullah that his Oppor- tunity had come. He gave orders that the wants of the cavalry officer and his horse were to be attended to, while he himself hustled off to prepare for an immediate journey. When the Begum and the moulvie departed for Lucknow they were ac- companied by nearly the whole of their retinue. Two men were left to assist the rissaldar in taking care of the prisoner, and these two vowed by the Prophet that they never met such a swashbuckler as the stranger, for he used strange oaths that delighted them and told stories of the sacking of Lucknow that made them tingle with envy. Oddly enough, he was very anxious that the Nazarene’s horse should be recovered, and was so pleased to hear that Nejdi was caught in a field on the outskirts of the town and brought in during the afternoon that he proâ€" mised his assistants a handful of gold mohurs apieceâ€"when they reached Lucknow. Once, ere sunset, he visited the pri- soner and cursed him with a fluency that caused all listeners to own that the warriors of the 7th Cavalry must, indeed, be fine fellows. At last, when Frank was led.forth and helped into the saddle, his guar- dian’s flow of humorous invective reached heights that pleased the vil- lagers immensely. The Nazarene’s hands were tied behind him, and the gallant rissaldar, holding the Arab’s reins, rode by his side. The moulvie’s men followed ,and in this guise the quartette quitted Rai Bareilly for the north. They were about a mile on their way and the sun was nearing the hori- zon, When the native officers bade his escort halt. Vuvv- II “wtâ€"'- “Bones of Mahomn'iet!” he cried, “what am I thinking of? My horse has done fifty miles in twenty-four hours, and the Feringhi’s probably more than that. Hath not the moulvie friends in Rai Bareiliy who will lend us a spare pair 7’ ‘ Ahmed U lah’s retainers hazarded the opinion that their master’s pre- sence might be necessary ere friend- ship stood such a strain. “"Ihen why not maxe the Nazarene pay for his journey?” said the rissaldar with grim hu_m0}'.___ He showed skill as a out-purse in going straight to an inner pocket where Malcolm carried some small store of money. Taking ten gold mo- huts, he told the men to hasten back to the village and purchase a couple of strOng ponies. “Nay,“ said he, when they made to ride off. “You must go afoot, else I may never again see you or the tats. I will abide here till you return. See that you lose no time, but if darkness falls speedily I will await you in the next village.” Not daring to argue with this trucu- lent-lookinga bravo, the men obeyed. Already it was dusk and daylight would soon fail. No sooner had they disappeared round the first bend in the road than the rissaldar, unfasten- ing Malcolm’s bonds the while, said with a strange humility: “It was easier done than I expected, sahib, but I guessed that my story about the Nawab of Rampur would send Moulvie and Begum packing. Now we are free. and we have four horses. Whither shall we g0? 1311!. 1! it be north, south, east, or west, let us leave the main road, for messengers may meet the moulvie and that would make him suspicious.” "Thy counsel is better than mine, good friend,” was Frank’s answer. “I am yet dazed with thy success, and my only word isâ€"to Allahabad.” V â€"_,_ Fully guaranteed. at Macfarlane’s To be continued A Medicine That.
