"Goonarthi answered never a word, but
shut himself up in his house alone with his
grief At the end OF ten days he sent out
secret runners by night through all the
hills, and gathered his people from the pad
dyf1elds and the maize from their herding
of cattle and filling the ground, and he set
them to fortifying his house till it was as
strong as the house of his foe, Shan ia.
And he cleared away a secret passage that
led from the anteroom of his bedchamber
down through the bowels of the earth to a
temple of silva far below and within bow
shot of the way that led to Sahama' S
palace.
'On the appointed day, Shan ia sent an
escort for the White Rose, to bring her to
his house. And these were Toasted at the
palace royalty, and there was much mirth
and revelry. Even the White Rose was
radiant and gay, SO that Sahama was be-
w1ldered at the change, little guessing that
a whisper had found It's way from the hills;
1t was strange whisper and difficult of
comprehension: When the gray wolf bowls
in Chanar Pass, scream aloud thrice, and
then lie still and fear nothing!
Meantime the rocky ways that led to the
mousse of Goonartht were full of armed and
silent men pressing on to the aid of the
Elder Brother, so that when the escort left
the valley-a gorgeous pageant, with much
fanfaronade, with the squealing Of pipes
and the flare of trumpets-there We're five
thousand stern-faced Hillsmen lying about
the rose garden and the house of the Elder
Brother. And in the Chanari Pass far be-
low an old priest sat at the door of the
temple and watched for the coming Of the
bride.
las the cavalcade came on this dark
some desolate place-where the horses Slip
ped and stumbled, and even the barefooted
bearers of the palanquin trod warily and
with much cautiOn-the White Rose star
tied by the sudden gloom of overhanging
trees and rock, asked from behind her cur

startling the horses and men, and it was
answered by piercing shrek from the pal
anQuin, followed by another and yet an
other; and then there was great commo-
ton. The bearers set down the palanuuin
In panic, and it had hardly touched the
ground when there came quick but silent
rush Of men, cutting the escort clean in
two, and surrounding the palanquin In a
solid mass. These stood motionless, each
resting on a naked sword, while round them
swelled sudden, awful din OF battle-the
whistle and clash of swords, the slipping
grind OF horses hoofs, with now Shrek
savage yell Of triumph. or a long-drawn
windy groan.
And as the fight began a hand reached
through the curtain to the girl and dropped
