CHAPTER IX.

The details learned later.
Demetrius, it seemed, had asked the
boy to loosen the rope which Jap, with
hearty good will, had knotted so tight
ly as to cut the flesh. Mark, in abso-
Lutte ignorance of the true nature of
the beast, and moved to pity at the
sight of his swollen and bleeding wrists,
had consented to slacken one end. A
powerful wrench had freed the Greeks
right arm as Gerard entered the hut;
and Demetrius, faithful to his oath,
had grasped knife and turned upon
the boy. With both feet tied, he
moved slowly and with difficulty, and
Gerard had time to fling himself be-
tween the miscreant and his victim.
He saved his sons life by the sacri-
flee of his own, sacrifice cheerfully
consummated.
Qemetrius was arraigned for the
murder of his master and convicted.
The day before his execution his iron
nerves gave way, and he was baptized,
trembling penitcnt, into the commu-
MON of the Greek church. Before the
ceremony, and in the presence of the
warden of San Quentin, he confessed
to the murder of Ferdinand Perkins.
The motive was jealous hatred of the
man, who had supplanted him, and,
cvershadowing that, the lust of gold.
Familiar intercourse with the Croesus
had aroused a passion of envy. Gerard,
doubtless, had dangled his dollars be-
fore the young mans eyes, and had
trained his pupil in the CONSTRUCTED
area of the grossest materiaism. But
the prize, q partnership, had been given
to poor Perkins. The fastening of the
crime upon Burlington, who had begun
to suspect him, was an afterthought.
He left all his money, large sum,
carefully invested, to the archiman-
drite of his native town; and he faced
the hangman with smile upon his pal
lid lips.
Gerard fingered several weeks, the
happiest, so he assured me. of his life.
The tangled skein was at length un-
raveled, and it was characteristic OF
the man that he accepted his sentence
of death without repining or remon-
STRANGE.
"If Mark" he said to me, only the
day before the final summons came,
"if Mark profits by my experience

held, Hugo, that reform rises, as
rose, from the ranks, but I've learnt
that it falls, like the sunlight, from
above"
