CHAPTER XVII.
To the Rescue.

II was the hour of the evening meal
at Isle Rugen. At the table head sat
Thqresa Won Lynar. her largely mold
ed and beautiful face showing no sign
of emotion. On either side of her
we've Joan and Prince Conrad-not
sad, neither avoiding nor seeking the
contingence of eye and eye, but yet.
ia spite of all. so strange thing is
love once declared, happy within their
heart of hearts.
I. had been growing wilder and wild
er without. and the shrill lament of
the wind was distinctly heard in the
wide chimney top. Now and then in
lull. broad splashes of rain fell sol
idly into the red embers with sound
lika musket balls "spatting' on
wall
Then Theresa Won Lynar looked up.
Where is Max Ulrich"" she said;
"why does he delay"
My lady" one of the men OF Kerns-
berg answered. saluting. he is gone
across the Haff in the boat, and has
not yet returned
Il will go and look for him-nay, do
not rise, my lord. | would go forth
ulone."
Theresa stood upon the inner curve
OF the Half at the place where Max
Ulrich was wont to pull his boat
ashore. She looked long southwark
under her hand. but for the moment
could see nothing.
And though Theresa Won Lynar was
yet in the prime OF her glorious
beauty, one could see what she must
have been in the days of her girlhood.
And as memory caused her eyes to
grow misty and the smile of love and
truat eternal came upon her lips,
twenty years were shorn away, and
the womans face which had looked
anxiously across the. darkening Haff
changed to that of the girl who from
the gate of Castle Won Lynar had
watched for the coming of Duke
Henry.
She turned and walked back facing
the storm Her hood had been blown
from her head by the furious gusts
of wind. But she needed not. She
had forgotten poor Max Ulrich and
Joan, and even herself. She had for
gotten her son. Her hand was out in
the storm now. She did not draw it
back, though the water ran from her
finger tips. For 1t was clasped in an
unseen grasp ard in an ear that
surely heard she was whispering her
hearts troth. God give it to me to
do one deed-only one before | die
that, worthy and unashamed, | may
meet my king"
When Theresa re-entered the hall
of the grange the company still sat as
she had left them. There is no sign
