self over. l had about made up my
mind that he had done so, when a gen.
tie sound rising and falling came out
of the darkness beneath me. 1t was
his breathing once more, and it showed
me where he must be. He was hiding
in the Toulouse.

form, upon which stands wooden hut

the darkness l would not venture to
follow him. He little knew Etienne
Gerard. With a spring l was on the
platform, with another l was through
the doorway, and then hearing him in
the corner, hurled myself down upon
the top of him.
He fought like a wildcat, but he
never had q chance with his shorter
weapon. I think that I must have
transfiXed him with that first mad
his blows had no power in them, and
presently his dagger tinkled down upon
the floor. When I was sure that he
was dead I rose up, and passed out
into the moonlight. climbed up onto
the heath again, and wandered across

could be. With the blood singing In

that I had come as far as the glade
Of the Abbot's Beech, and saw in the
distance that gnarled stump which
must ever be associated with the most
terrible moment of my life. sat
down upon a fallen trunk with my
sword across my knees, and my head
between my hands, and I tried ito think
about what had happened, and what
would happen in the future.
