They were seized, strong arms pinioned
them. knives were at their throatS In
a twinkling, and while they still expect

heads n dow TO heir waists, and
they were helpless.
1t was well, 1t was neatly done; and
completely done. with a single draw
back. The men had not seized Flavia.
and, white as paper, but with rage, not
fear, h screamed shrilly for help
screamed twice.
She would have screamed a third
time, but Colonel Sullivan, who knew
that they were scarcely two furlongs
from the meeting place, and from some
hundreds of merciless foes, did the only
thing possible. He flung his arms
round her, pressed her face roughly
against his shoulder, smothered her
aided by the man with the musket, he
bore her, vainly struggling-and, 1t
must be owned, scratching-after the
others out of the driftway.
The thing done, the c%olonel's little
band Of Frenchmen knew that they a
cast the die and must now succeed or
perish. The girls screams, quickly
suppressed, might not have given the
alarm: but they had set nerves on edge.
Il iiG pIiSh VI a hllilV was dSIo LII
often-to apprize the blinded prisoners
that If they did not move they would
be piked. They were dragged, a sea-
man on either side of each captive, over
some hundred PAGES of rough ground
through the stream, and so into a path
litter better than a sheep track which
ran round the farther side Of the hill
OF the tower, and descended that way
TO the more remote bank OF the lake.
1t was a rugged path, steep and slip
perry, dropping precipitously a couple of
feet in places, and more than once fol-
lowing the bed OF the stream. But 1t
was traceable even In the mist, and the
party from the sloop, once put on 1t,
could follow ii.
If no late conner to the meeting N
countered them, Colonel John, to whom
every foot of the ground was familiar,
saw no reason, apart from the chances
of pursuit, why they should not convey
their prisoners to the sloop. All, how
ever, depended on time. If Flavia's
screams had not given the alarm, 1t
would soon be given by the absence of
those whom the people had come to
meet. The missing leaders would be
sought, pursuit would be organized.
But with peril on every side of them,

TO carry her far, even with the help OF
the man who. fettered her feet, and bore
part of her weight. Twice she freed her
mouth and uttered q sti1ed cry. The
colonel only pressed her face more ruth
iessly to him-his mems lives depended
On her silence. But the sweat stood on
his brow; and, after carrying her no
more thar 800 yards. he staggered un-
der the unwilling burden. He was on
the path now and descending, and he
held out a little farther.
But presently, when he hoped that
she had swooned, she fell TO struggling
more desperately. He thought, on this,
that he might be smothering her; and
he relaxed his hold TO allow her TO
breathe. For reward she struck him
madly, ~furiously in the face, and he had
to stifie her again.
But his heart was sick. 1t was a
horrible. a brutal business. a thing he
had not ~foreseen on board the Corr
morant. He had supposed that she
would faint at the first alarm: and his
courage, which would have faced al
most any event with GOODNESS, quailed.
He could not murder the girl, and she
would not be silent. No she would
not be silent! Short of setting her down
and binding her hand and foot. which
would take time, and was horrible To

rest of the party outstripping them,
and as good as disappearing in the fog
who fancied, with every step. that he
heard the feet of merciiess pursuers
overtaking them, was frantic with inn
patience.
Then Colonel John, with the sweat
standing out on his brow did a thing
to which he afterward looked back
with great a-stonishment.

under the influence of great excitement,

to be seen, the lively and animated APP

headed boys drawn up in bodies under
their priests, or under the great mems
agents; and when these matters had
been consumed one band after another
moved off In the direction of the rem
devious. This was at the ~Carraghalin,
a name long given to the ruins of an
abbey situated In an upland valley
above the waterfall.
The orders for all were to take their
seats in an orderly fashion and in a
nightly semicircle about a well-known
rock situate a hundred yards from the
abbey. Tradition reported that in old
days this rock had been a pulpit, and
that thence the Irish Apostle had
preached to the heather. The turb
about it was dry sweet and sheep
bitten: on either side it sloped gently
to the rock, while a sentry posted on
each of the two low hills which flanked
the vale was a sufficient surety against
surprise.
IT was not until the last of peasants
had filed off that the gentry began to
make their way in the same direction.
The buckeens were the first to go, while
the last to leave were the admiral and

An Aberdonian went to spend a few
DAYS in London with his SON., who had
done exceptionally well in the great me-
~tropolis. After their first greetings at

CHAPTER XIV.
THE TERMS.

Cammock and the bishop, certain only
that they were in hostile hands, and
hurried, blind INK helpless, to an I'M
known doom. might have been par
doned had they succumbed to despair.
But they did not succumb. The habit
of danger; and a hundred adventures
and escapes had hardened them; they
felt more rage han fear. Stunned for
a moment by the audacity of the at
tack, they had not been dragged a hun
dred yards before they began to call
culate the chances. If the purposes of
those into whose hands they had fallen
were TO murder them they would have
been piked on the spot. On the other
hand, If their captors' object was to
deliver them to English justice, weeks,
if not months, must elapse before they
stood at the bar on a capital charge;
much water must flow under the
bridges, and many a thing might hap
pen, by force or fraud, in the interval.
So, half stifled and bitterly chagrined
as they were, they did not waste their
strength in a vain resistance.

hung In beads on thorn and furze. to
cheer her. But she drew her spirits
from a higher source, and, sanguine and
