gard face and burning eyes against his
chair The bright steel shone in the
1amp-1ight. Edith shrank back, her
hand over her face.
Take this sword!" said Nigel, and he
turned the hilt to the cripple. "Now!"
he added, as he drew his hunting-knife.
Kill me if you can, Paul de la Fosse, for as
God is my help will do as much for you"
The woman, half swooning and yet
spellbound and fascinated, looked on at
that strange combat. For a moment the
cripple stood with an air of doubt, the
sword grasped in his nerveless fingers.
Then as he saw the tiny blade in Nigel's
hand the greatness of the advantage
came home to him, and a cruel smile
frightened his loose lips. Slowly, step by
step he advanced, his chin sunk upon
his chest, his eyes glaring from under the
thick tangle of his brows like fires through
the brushwood. Nigel waited for him,
his left hand forward, his knife down by
his hip, his face grave, still and watchful.
Nearer and nearer yet, with stealthy
step, and then with bound and cry of
hatred and rage Paul de la Fosse had sped
his blow. 1t was we'll judged and we'll
swung, but point would have been wiser
than edge against that supple body and
those active feet. Quick as a flash,
Nigel had sprung inside the sweep of the
blade, taking a flesh wound on his left
forearm, as he pressed it under the hilt.
The next instant the cripple was on the
ground and Nigel sdaggerwasa at his throat.
You dogH he whispered. Il have

in a low voice. You have done all that

There are two places you may mark;
There is the service of marriage and there

He closed the door behind them and
was alone with this Unmatched couple
They both turned IN their chairs to look
at him, Edith with a defiant face, the
man with bitter smile upon his lips
and malignant hatred in his eyes.
What" said he, the knight Grant
still lingers? Have we not heard OF
his thirst for glory? What new venture
does he see that he should tarry here?
Nigel walked to the table. There is

Edith was on her feet with outstretched
