CHAPTER ~.
THE CHALLENGE.

In the afternoon Ruric retired to
his shop, where he went at work
upon a gun which had been ordered
some days before. AS yet he had
said nothing to Paul concerning the
affair of the day before since his re-
turn from the Kremlin. He asked
him now, however, if any one had
called.
"Only the monk" returned Paul,
without seeming to consider that
there was anything very important
in the visit.
"Do you mean the black monk
Vladimir" asked the young man,
starting.
'Yes, my master. He called here
about the middle of the forenoon.
He wanted one of the small daggers
with the pearl haft."
"And did you let him have one?"
Certainly. He paid me 4 due

that happened, from the showing Of
the paper which the duke had drawn
up to the departure of the angry
man"
"And what did the monk say ?"
Ruric asked very earnestly.
"Why, he said he knew the count
and that he was a proud, reckless
fellow and worth but little TO soci-
ETY.; that was all. He did not seem
to care much about it anyway; only
he said he should have done just as
you did and that every law Of Jus
tice would bear you out. He had
more curiosity than interest, though

with YOU"
''Very WE'LL" returned Ruric. an
