more at his a tent than hall But ten
years of service had taught him much, and Nigel
listened eagerly to his talk
Indeed the King hath some good tidings,"
he continued. See now, he has whispered it to
Chandos and to Nanny. Nanny spreads it to
Sir Reginald Gotham, and he to Robert Knolles,
each smiling like the Devil over a friar."
Which is Sir Robert Knoles?" asked Nigel
with interest. Il have heard much of him and his
deeds
He is the tall hard-faced man in yellow silk
he with the hairless cheeks and the split lip He
is little older than yourself, and his father
cobbler in Chester, yet he has already the
golden spurs. See how he dabs his great hand in
the dish and hands forth the gobbets. He is more
used to a camp-kettle than silver plate. The
big man with the black beard is Sir Bartholomew
Berghersh, whose brother is the Abbot of Beau
lieu Haste, haste! for the boars come and the

The table of ancestors at this period
would have furnished to the modern eye the strang-
est mixture of luxury and of barbarism. Forks
still unknown, and the courtesy fingers, the
index and the middle of the left hand, took their
place. To any others accounted the

the rushes growing at each other and quarrelng
over the gnawed bones which thrown to them

was provided with silver platters which were wiped

other hand the table-hnen was costly, and the

gold linked belt girdling his colored tabard On
his head he had placed the heraldic barretcap which
bespoke his dignity, and he slowly raised his white
wand high in the air, while great hush fell upon
the hall.
my lords of England, said he, "knight banner
ets knights squires and all others here present of
gentle birth and coat-armor, know that your dread
and sovereign lord, Edward, King of England and
of France, bids give you greeting and commands
you to come hither that he may have speech with
you"
In an instant the tables were deserted and the
whole company had clustered in front of the Kings
chair. Those who had sat either side of him
crowded inward that his tall dark figure upreared
itself amid the dense circle of his guests
With flush upon his olive cheeks and with
pride smodering in his dark eyes, he looked round
him at the eager faces of the who had been his
comrades from Sluis and Cadsand to Crecy and
Calais They caught fire from that warlike CLEAN
in his masterful gaze, and sudden wild, fierce
shout peaed up to the vaulted ceiling, soldierly
thanks for what passed and promise for what
to come. The Kings teeth cleaned in a quick
smile, and his large white hand played with the
jeweled dagger in his belt.

clear voice, Il have little doubt that you will
rejoice with this night, for such tidings have
come to my ears may well bring JOY to everyone
of you. You know well that our ships have suffered

years have slain without grace or ruth all of my

and the sober habits OF the Norman
had happily prevailed over the
license of those Saxon banquets
where no guest might walk from the
table without slur upon his host.
Honor and hardihood go i'll with a
shaking hand or blurred eye.
Whilst wine, fruit and spices were
handed round the high tables the
squires had been served in turn at
the farther end of the hall. Mean
while round the King there had
gathered a group of statesmen and
soldiers, talking eagerly among
themselves. The Earl of Stafford,
the Earl of Warwick, the Earl of
Arundel, Lord Beauchamp and Lord
Neville were assembled at the back
of his chair, with Lord Percy and
Lord Mowbray at either side. The
little group blazed with golden
chains and jeweled chaplets, flame
colored paltocks and purple tunes.
Of sudden the King said some
thing over his shoulder to Sir
William de Pakyngton the herald,
who advanced and stood by the
royal chair. He was a tall and
noble-featured man, with long griz-
zled beard which rippled down to the

dressed for the Kings feast,
and Nigel too had donned his
best silk jupon, faced with the
five scarlet roses, that he
might wait upon him. In the
great hall of Calais Castle the
tables were set, a high table
for the lords, a second one for
the less distinguished knights,
and a third at which the
squires might feast when their
masters were seated.
Never had Nigel in his SIM
pie life at Tilford pictured a
scene of such pomp and Won
drous luxury. The grim gray
walls were covered from cell
ing to floor with priceless
tapestry of Arras, where hart,
hounds and huntsnen circled
the great hall with one long hv-
ing image of the chase. Over
the principal table dropped a
line of banners, and beneath
them rows of emblazoned
shields upon the wall carried
the arms of the high noble
men who sat beneath. The red
light of cressets and of torches
burned upon the badges of
the great captains of England.
The lions and lilies shone over
the high dorseret chair in the
center, and the same august
device marked with the caden-
cy label indicated the seat
of the Prince, while glowing
to right and to left were the
long lines of noble insignia,
