The speaker was Frank Dynevor- Cyras
Baumgarren's especial chun when he vas
at Denham. He ras considerably older
than Cyras, but the latter was forward
boy Of his years. and would not acknowi-
edge companion in one of his own age.

The tears stood in Charles eyes; moth

He cries for nothing" went on Cyras.
"and then they get him into the nursery
and give him sugar candy. Mamma and
old Jaquet make a regular molly Of him.
Now, Master Charles. perhaps you'll 90

that kept you waitia~ Dynevor."
Il am not going" said Dynevor. They
began a row al home about my running
out in the rain, 50 it's stopped, and
came to tell you Here. Cy, come down
this way"
The two boys, Dynevor's arm careless
~ cast on the shoulder OF Cyras,
strollsd of together along the cloisters
toward the obscure exit which led to the
Dark Alley, Cyras having tossed the coat
on TO Charley's head. nearly throwing him
of his legs. Charley disencumbered him
self, and espying some Of the college boys
with whom he kept up passing acquaint-
ance when at Denham, be joined them.
They were emerging noisily from the
school room, after taking OF their sur
plices; music had no charms for them,
50 they had not remained amidst the list
eners in the cathedral.
Now, there was a charity school in
Denham for the sons OF small parents,
where plain learning was taught IL was
a large school. its numbers averaging
four OF FIVE times those Of the fOunda-
ton school in the cathedral; and from
time immemorial the gentlemen on the
college foundation, called the Kings schol-
ars. and the boys Of the charity school
had been at daggers drawn. The slight
pastimes OF hard abuse and stone throw
ing were indulged in, whenever the oppo-
sition parties came into contact AMI
mostly al the present time ran unusually
high, and. in consequence Of some ofense
offered by the naughty college boys IN the
past week, the opposition boys had ven
tured on the unheard-of exploit Of col
lecting in a body round the elOisler gate
TO waylay the Kings scholars on their
leaving the cathedral az the close OF az
ternoon service. The latter walked into
the trap and were caught; but they did
not want for pluck" and began laying
about them right and left.
The noise penetrated 10 the other end
of the cloister, 10 the ears Of the two lads
psrading there, and away they tore, eager
TO take part in any mischief that might
have turned up. The first thing Cyras
saw was his brother Charles struggling
in the hands Of some half dozen Of the
enemy, and being roughly handled.
All the hot blood OF Cyras Baumgar-
tens body rushed TO his face and his
temper: if he chose 10 put upon Charley
and tan" him, he was not going 10 see
others do it. He flung OF his jacket and
his cap, threw them 10 Dynevor. and
with his sturdy young fists doubled,
sprang upon the assailants.
What would have been the upshot, il
is impossible 70 say. had not the master
Of the opposition boys come up; worthy
gentleman and martinez, whom the whole
lot dreaded more than anything alive. The
very moment his porJly figure was caught
sight OF of few the crew in iguominious
alarm. the college boys raising derisive
shout after them. and then decamping 10
their own homes.
