this happened on three evenings. Then
OF the fourth day it was again his turn
to mount guard at the palace, and
when he had sat there on his horse for
an hour the Princess Osra rode out from
under the portico. She rode alone, and
the ruby necklace was on her neck, and
she said:
81 am going to ride outside tho city
by the river bank. Let a trooper follow
mo some way behind" And she signed
with her hand to Lord Harry, and no
rode after her through the streets and
out of the western gate, and they turned
along the bank of the river. When they
had gone three or -four miles from tho
city, Osra halted and bockoned tho Lord
Harry to approach her, and he came.
But when she was about to speak to
him and tell him that she knew him a
sudlen and new madness came on to
him, and he seized her bride and dug
his spurs deep into his horse's TANKS,
and both the horses bounded forward at
n gallop. In alarm tho princess cried
out, but no did not heed her. Along the
bank they gallopod, and when they met

till they camo at nightfall to a bluff OF
rock high above the stream. Here Lord
Harry suddenly checked the horses,

and stood facing him, palo with fear
and apprehension, but wearing q proud
and scornful air, And he cried:
"Is it not well you should die? Fol-

them to sin and folly"
NAY" said she, "to men of goot

stripped off her gauntlets and took his
forehead between her hands, and he Law
there quiet with his head between her
hands. And presently his eyes closed
and he slept. But Osra did not know
what to do, for darkness had fallen and
she dared not leave HIM alone there by
the river. Therefore she sat where she
was, and iii an hour, the night being
hne and not cold, she grew weary, and
her hands fell away from his brow and
she sank back on the green turf, pillow
ing her head on a curved arm, and there
she slept with the mad lord by her and
the ruby necklace lying noar them.
AT midnight Lord Harry C%ulverhouse
awoke and saw Princess Osra sleepipe
peacefully with a smile on her lips such
as decks a child's lips in sleep. He rose
II stood up on his feet, looking at her,

the horses cropping the grass a little
way Off. Then he drew near her and
gazed long on her face, and she pened

no fear OF him. She smiled at him, and
she said:

the gentlemen who guard me in the
palace" And she closed her eyes again
and turned to sleep.

but blessed God for it and blessed him
also for the preservation Of his own
honor. Thus he spent the night till day
was near. and then he bent over Osra

took up the ruby necklace and laid IL
lightly about her neck. And, feeling
the touch of it, cool and wet from the
dew, she again opened her eyes and.
putting her knuckles in them, she rubbed
gently, and she gasped a little yawn,
saying "Heigh no. I am s~leepyr' and

CHAPTER VIII.
Monsieur de Preaulx.


I kept off the road as far as posi-
BILE to avoid being tracked. Even il
no further attempt to follow me was
made tonight, which was uncertain, as
de Gomeron was not the man to let
the barest chance slip through his
fingers, yet there was no doubt as to
what would happen on the morrow. I
congratulated myself on having Grip
pied the last of the sleuth hounds, as
my gentlemen would be placed there
by in a difficulty in regard to my
route, and if they secured the country
in twos and threes 1 felt confident of
being able, with Jacques aid, to give
a good account of myself did we meet,
despite my bruised leg, which remind
ed me Of 1t unpleasantly.
AS / patted Couronne's neck
thought of Nicholas, and with the
memory Of him the face of Marie came
up. I felt myself in a measure respons-
ible for his death, and was resolved to
weigh out in full to Marie the pay
ment I had promised them both. II
was a debt I would discharge to the
end of the measure.
A sense Of relief came to my mind
with this resolve, and, as Rouvres
could not be far distant, 1 slackened
pace to let the horses breathe a trifle,
and began to hastily plan my future
course of action on reaching Paris. /
had not only discovered what was ev-
identity a deep and widely spread plot,
but had also stumbled on the dreadful
secret of the death of the woman who
was to be queen of France in name,
as she was in reality. 1t was certain
that she had been foully murdered
1t was certain that the kings most
trusted captain and many Of his great
est mobiles were hilt deep in treachery
so much 1 knew. I had seen with
mine own eyes, and heard with mine
own ears, but beyond this I had no
proofs; and what would my word
weigh against theirs! Beside this,
there was my own trouble. D'Ayen's
hooking warning was explicit enough,
when read with Palms confidence, and
any doubt I may have had on that
point was almost set at rest by what
I had overheard. In short, I was the
rival Of the king, and felt my head
very loose upon my neck.
What was I to do? 1t was no easy
matter to decide; but I came to the
conclusion that my best course was to
seek out the all-powerful Sully, tell
him what I knew, and beg the help Of
that great man. I did not know him,
except by repute; but my case was
strong and my cause good. I would
delay not a moment about this on
reaching Paris; but it was Rouvres L
had to come to first, and many a league
lay for reflection between me and the
Louvre.
So logged on, not quite certain Of
my way, and every now and again
making a cast to find the road, for by
riding parallel with it l knew I must
reach my destination. Once, however
I lost myself for about an hour, and
