Synopsis of Preceding Chapters
! CIR NIGEL" is a romantic tale of
y the loves and adventures of Nigel
Loring, a young Englishman of heroic
ancestry, who took up the sword to mend
the fallen fortunes of his noble house
the year after the great plague devas-
tated England IL the fourteenth century.
The story opens with a brief but
powerful word-picture of England during
the plague, and rapidly outlines the down
fall of the feuda1 system and other
changes which that fearful BLACK
Death" brought about. The house of
Loring has been all but wrecked by the
Vaccinations and encroachments of
clerics Nigel and his grandmother are
the sole survivors of the family, and the
Cistercian monks of Waverley Abbey
are still engaged in Preying upon their
meager possessions, after the manner of
those feudal times. Young Nigel openly
opposes them.
The monks, in satisfaction of a claim
against Franklin Awkward, have taken
| possession of a fiery untamed yellow
horse of noted lineage, and several OF
their number have been viciously at
tackled and nearly killed by the animal.
Believing the horse to be possessed OF
devil, the monks are about to have him
killed, when Nigel interposes. The horse
is given to him, partly in the hope that
the beast will kill him and rid their COM
munity of its most rebellious, trouble
some and dangerous opponent. But
! Nigel at once takes possession OF the morse,
and in the presence of the astonished
monks speedily reduces him to sub
mission" breaks - him, as it is technically
called in our day.
This scene, which closes the third
chapter, is undoubtedly one of the most
! thrilling in all literature, and yet it is
only one of a series of wonderful word
pictures in this, Sir Conan Doyle's great
est story. -
Sir Nigel" appears only in this Sunday
Magazine section. Nowhere else can it
be procured in book or other form.
Next Sundays instalment relates
How Nigel Was Tried by the Abbott
of Waverley" Had Sir Conan Doyle
written only one short story, this
chapter alone would put him at the head
of the class of The Worlds Best Story
