XIX,
A STRANGE MEETING.

We were taken into the house and
led upstairs. The officer in charge,
after inspecting several rooms and no.
ticing that the one in which l had N.Y.
self previously confined Margaret was
the best prepared for her reception,
put her In it. Leaving a sentry at the
door, he took me to chamber in the
rear and left me, also with guard out
side.
Sitting down on chair, resting my
arms on its back and my chin on my
arms, fell into troubled meditation.
was not thinking of myself, for, con-
scious of innocence, feared nothing.
Had i been older I would have known
that innocence does not alone consti-
tute valid defense. I regarded the
situation as huge mistake. But what
an unfortunate one! Margaret and
had brought information which, if act
ed upon at once, would lead to impor-
tant advantages to the union cause, save
her and any mysterious person or per-
cons with whom she might be allied,
and place the general, guilty or not
guilty, where his enemies could not
strike him. And now, at the culmina-
ton of these happy results, the whole
advantage must needs be aborted by the
spite of that marble-faced, red-headed,
cowardly sneak, Mellodew. The
thought that troubled me most was
that Margaret's life was in imminent
danger.
If could only see Margaret, we
might together find some means to
thwart our enemy. Remembering that
she was confined in u room with q trap
leading through the ceiling, it occurred
to me that if l could reach the roof
might gain access to her. Going to
the window, threw up the sash and
made hasty survey of my position.
I was three stories above ground, a
wooden cornice over my head, while
at my right was two-story extension.
I resolved to make the attempt. Clos
ing the sash, turned my attention to
what there might be in the room to
assist me.
The only implement that could pos
sibly be of use was an iron poker; but
I soon perceived that poker was not
to be despised, for it stood beside q
CRATE containing coal and kindling
ready to light, and l at once connected
the two in u possible benefit. 1t oc-
CURED to me to make a hook of the
poker, with which to gain a hold on
the cornice, and u rope of the bed
clothes, by which to climb to the roof.
Cutting u blanket into strips, I made
a rope strong enough to bear my
weight, and, lighting the fire, inserted
the poker at the middle, softened it
and bent it into hook. Fortunately,
at the other end was ring which to
tie my rope.
Soon after "taps" 1 prepared to put
my plan into execution. The house was
surrounded by four sentries, and from
my window I could see and be seen
by two of them as they approached the
angle at which their beats joined. My
! attempt must be made when they were
both out of sight, but they were I'M
sociable fellows, and much to my cha
grin paced SO that one was always in
view of my window. 1 conceived a
plan for bringing them together, and
looked about my room for some object

tries to be out of view. Then, securing
my hook to the cornicc directly above
my room. l swung myself clear. vi
brating once, twice-crack, and down
went. Some one caught me in his
arms, staggered, but kept his legs. l
turned my head, and looked into the
face of-the general.
BE put me down and stood staring at
me. I behaved better on this occasion
than ever before when he had me at a
disadvantage.
"a fine night, general" l said, quite
calmly.
"Just the night for 'sighing and
singing under Bonnybel's window
panes,' he quoted from favorite bal
lad.
"Or dangling before ones own win
dow-panes," suggested.
"When you are older you will not
care to risk your heart, your honor,
and your neck in such escapades. Then
you'll know boy is an ass. Come with
me-"
He led me to his tent, where he threw
himself on his back on his camp cot.
He looked worn and weary. l stood
waiting for him to proceed with a
catechism which naturally expected.
"You are infatuated with woman"
