Standing SO. it happened that she
did not see the horseman who was
just gaining the crest OF the nearest
hill between her and the city. The
wind being from her, she did not even
hear the hoof-beats until the horse
had turned from the glare of the sun
into the shadow of the fern.bordered

glanced over her shoulder and saw
tho red-cloaked figure riding toward
her along the grass-grown path.

Drawing softly near her. he spoke
in noblest conciliat!on: as 1t your
