go up and get two first-class tickets
to Liverpool.
"That will do" said Malcolm to him
self. should inquiries be pushed to
this extent. that party may pass very
well for her they seek"
Then drawing Eudora's arm within
his own, and joining the throng of
n~ewly-arriyed passengers that were
passing from the station, he went
forth. Taking an opposite direction
from that of the place at which they
had first been set down, he called
another cab, placed Eudora in, took
his seat by her side, and ordered the
man to drive to st. Pauls church
yard.
1t was now broad daylight, and all
London was waking up and throwing
open it's windows. AS they drove
along, Mr.. Montrose said to his won
dering companions:
"Now. my dearest Eudora, though
you ask me no questions concerning
this strange proceeding, L must give
you al explanation. i have acted thus
in order TO throw your pursuers
off the scent; for If that rail-
vanguard who attended us at Abbey
| lp"h thu IL an ~ S-tioHS stutich,
| should be examined by the police, as
Is most likely, though he may be able
to describe your person, dress, and APP
pearance in such an accurate manner
as to leave no doubt upon their minds
that it was yourself who came up to
London by the night train; yet, mark
me. he will say that on reaching the
Ki~ng's-cross terminus, you took a cab
l 10 thn INYySfnn Snrtnra Gfatinn m On itch
the .five-thirty' down train to Liver
pool. The cabman who took US down
will support his evidence, and even
the clerk Of the irst-class ticket office
will corroborate both testimonies by
remembering a young lady in deep
mourning. who took a tirst-class ticket
for that train to Liverpool. Thus be-
ing thrown Off the true scent by my
ruse. they will think hat you have
gone down to Liverpool with the Pur-
pose of escaping by one of the out
ward-bound steamers, while you may
repose unsupported and securely in
LoTdon."
But" said Eudora, anxiously, "since
| have fed, had | not better continue
my fight? Had / not better escape al
once to some foreign country
"It would lie impossible for you 10
do so at present. Eudora. | must tel
you why. In an hour or w from this
time your fight will be discovered al
Allworth. In the same hour kilograms
will be despatched to the police OF
every seaport on the coast of England
10 intercept you IL you should attempt
To pass. These kilograms will reach
their destinations before you could
possibly arrive at any seaport. and you
would be arrested Immediately upon
your arrival"
"Oh. Lord of Heaven. that /, that
should be so hunted, hunted as though
l were u wild beast" exclaimed Eudo
ia, shuddering with terror
MANY n fair and good queen and
princess has been 81 hunted before
you, dear girl! Even in recent times
your own friend. the heroic Princess
Pezzilini, was obliged to fly for hei
life. Emulate her heroism. dear girl
said Malcolm, earnestly pressing hel
hand.
"Ah. but she was not ~dlshonored by
the charge of a foul and industrious
crime. Her offense was a political one
and her very flight was honorable
There is no parallel between her case
and mina," moancd the poor girl.
Take courage and have patience
