MS they were the servants of the Frank
Lozelle, setting them loose upon the
beach to find their way to the nearest
city. Yesterday morning we started
for Masyaf, the prince Hassan riding
in n litter together with that Franklsh
spy who was here n while ago and told
you of the coming Of the ship. At night
they slept in the same tent. I left the
prince bound and set n guard, but in
the morning when we looked we found
him gone. how I know not, and lying
in the tent the Frankish spy, dead,
with a knife wound through his heart.

Now when he had heard this report,
forgetting his calm. Sinan arose from
the cushion and stepped forward two

his glittering eyes, looking like a man

or near 1t, and within six days we shall
see the army Of Sa%lah-ed-din riding
across the plain. What have you to
say?"
Lord" answered the tall fedai, and
his hand trembled as he spoke, most
mighty lord, had no orders as to the
killing of the crew from your lips, and
the Frank Lozelle told me that he had
agreed with you that they should be
spared"
"Then, slave, he lied. He agreed with

that il | give no orders in such n case

Lord. I have nothing to say. I think
he must have bribed the spy named
Nicholas and he pointed to the
corpse-"to cut his bonds and after

sake, for by the body we found n heavy
purse of gold"

Sinan, land tell their story"
They were brought and stood by
their captain. but they had 10 story to
tell. They swore that they had not
slept on guard nor heard n sound, yet
when morning came the prince was
gone. Again the lord Of death stroked
his black beard. Then he held up the
signct before the eyes Of the three men,
saying:
You see the token. Go"

stern answer.

abyss and leaped. For an instant tine
sunlight shone on his white and flutter-
ing robe, then from the depths of that
darksome place floated up the sound Of
a heavy fall. and ali was still.
"Follow your captain to paradise"
said Sinan to the two soldiers. So the
poor men went, the first with a steady
step, and the second, who was not so
brave, rceling over the edge of the prec-

But Rosamund turned sick and faint,
and even the brethren paled. This man
was terrible indeed-if he were a man
and not a devil-and they were in his
power. How long would it be, they
wondered, before they also were hidden
to walk that gulf? Only Wulf swore in
his heart that If he went by this road
Sinsn should go with him.
Then the corpse Of the false palmer
was borne away to be thrown to the

seated himself upon the cushion, began
to talk again through his mouth Ma
