old earthwork, hoping to fire Seabury

but he was not there then increased
the radius of my search and was re-
warded by the discovery OF black
horse and a light wagon In little used
road which runs back of the hill and
joins the main highway leading out Of
town to the northward.
I had known most of the Bentonville
horses for ten or fifteen years. but this
animal was not one of them. He had
the look of stranger, and, taking all
things into consideration, | would have
wagered that he was a Lynde horse.
SO there was an elopement hidden in
this mystery. But where was Sea-
bury? Could l risk watching beside
this equipage. which might have no
connection whatever with his designs !?
1t seemed too dangerous. The real
need was to find Celia. Yet dared not
leave this source of peril wholly at the
disposal of the plotters.
After hasty thinking decided to play
for delay. The horse was hitched to the
fence by one of the reins. ! tied him
by the checkrein and removed the
others altogether. unbuckling them from
the bit 1t was my intention to hide
them under the seat, and my head was
in the wagon when / became aware
that some one was approaching.
My position was extremely favorable
for concealment, and l waited 1t was
Celia alone who was coming. She was
within FIVE steps of the wagon before
she perceived me; then by the light of
one of the bombs, exploding high in
air. we saw each others face.
