CHAPTER Nv.

On the 23d Of December word came
to Gen. Howe that the British feet had
anchored off Tybee island. With the
next tide it would come over the bar and
take possession of the river. Little had
been done by the Americans to erect de-
fenses around the town. There had been
line of earthworks, but this had been
suffered to fall to ruins and was now
practically useless. nor was there time
for any repairs. The coming of the
enemy was as much surprise as if it
had been sudden descent in the night
Before Gen. Howe could ascertain the
number or position Of the enemy's
forces, and while he was trying in vain
to dispose of his own little army to the
best advantage, the guns began to bat
ter away savagely at the bluff on Zirar-
deaux plantation, only two or three
miles down the river from Savannah.
In moment all was confusion in the
town and its suburban settlements. The
approach of battle under any circum-
stances would have caused alarm, but
now it was, to degree, a panic, with
no wise management to control it. At
first this feeling did not extend to the
troops; ON the contrary, they behaved
well until their line was broken and they
were thrown into disorder
Lieut.. Prescott was detained by Gen.
Howe to act on his staff, wherefore it
CHANGED to fall to his lot to be sent in the
direction of Governor Wright's planta-
ton just at the time when Lieut..
Col. Campbell ordered the attack on the
American lines He was mounted on
aeet horse and bearing orders to Col.
Elbert. His way lay along the edge of u
wamp through which the enemy were
making efforts to pass. and in which they
were already skirrnishing with some
American scouts. Riding in great haste
and rather recklessly he pushed his horse
into boggy place and was delayed for
many minutes in extricating him In
the meantime the British had attacked
with great vigor, going right through
the lines and completely routing the
American forces Not only this. they
were already across the swamp ahead OF
him and We're rushing ON toward the
city He saw at once that his one chance
Of escape lay in reaching the Savannah
road before it was fully in their posses
sion. He knew the country perfectly and
so was able to choose the shortest and
safest route. Putting spurs to his horse.
he made dash for that point where the
road in question cut the line of old earth
works. If he could pass there in advance
of the British he could reach Savannah
long before they could get there.
True to his youth and the love which
had made youth doubly sweet to him
Prescott no sooner set his face toward

one reIr the reason for this and could not
blame him, for in her memory the act of
driving him from the house fingered
with all the ugly features that her inn
agination could lend to it, and she de-
spised herself.
As for Prescott he felt sure that Rose
still loved him, and that she had acted
under some strange necessity which for
bade him to make any inquiries until
such time as she should choose for en-
tightening him voluntarily. Deep in his
heart he suspected some connection be-
tween his unknown antagonist and the
occurrence at the house, but his suspicion
could not take any definite form.
Soon after his recovery and return to
camp he was sent in command Of de-
tachment toa point opposite Whitemarsh
island, some six miles from Savannah,
which would have prevented him from
calling on Rose, even if he had felt it the
proper thing to do under the circum-
stances.
As Maynard convalesced he proved
himself a man of most cultivated and in
sinuating manners. The master and the
mistress of the Fenwicke mansion be-
came quite fascinated, spending great
deal of time in his company listening to
his well told stories of adventure by land
and sea in many parts of the world.
Even Rose, although she could but
cordially despise him, oftentimes lent
captivated attention to his variations.
He treated her with such marked and
refined respect that it was impossible for
her to show her real feeling toward him,
though the longer he stayed the more
distasteful he became to her. For her
fathers sake she was very kind in word
and manner to this man, chatted pleas
antly with him, played and sang for him,
even read aloud to him when he begged
her to. She did not note the looks of ten
der admiration with which he soon began
to follow her, nor did she dream that in
his heart he was permitting passion
for her to take deep and powerful hold.
His face had been very handsome before
the swordcut had left its livid streak,
and even now it was impressive, if some
what sinister, in its expression.
With the cunning Of man whose
nature both by gift and training makes
him detective he saw that Rose was a
rebel, although not word on the sub
ject had ever fallen from her lips in his
presence. Her character, however, was
guaranty to him that she would not
betray him, knowing that to do it would
be sure to compromise her father in a
very dangerous way. Feeling secure at
this point, it pleased him to linger at the
Fenwicke mansion after he was quite
well of the wound from Prescott's sword.
The seclusion here was perfect, the
household atmosphere quite agreeable,
and then there was Rose, whose tall,
superbly turned figure and charming
face were fascinating him more and more
everv hour
