Thus in the hall of the men alarms
in the Castle of CORTLAND spoke the
two captains of Plassenburg. All the
time they were busy with their attir-

play with tortoiseshell comb among
his tangled locks. Somewhat more

there was yet greater fear. For the
news had spread athwart the city that

Lady Joan, Governor of the city, should
be made aware.
The Governor Of the city, reused

Looking out, Joan could see a dark

Immediately below her, Joan beheld

had grown so familiar to her during
the days Of Isle Rugen She was
moved to smile in spite of the sober
ness of the circumstances.

General Alger placed no credence in

was informed by hobart that the
president was embarrassed because
General Alger had formed an alliance
with Pingree against so strong an adj
