 The doctor did not answer the ques- tiou.
 Take him 10 the temporary prison in the Rue Yeau Grand. l wish to consult the committee to learn If 1t Is their pleasure that this man. who has been closer than any other In the con fidence of the tyrant. shall die an or dinary death He should be burned" These words were spoken with all the bitterness the citizen judge could throw into them. Not one present suspected that his intention was to save Dr. Du ffaur from the guillotine that morning and to place him where he might get access to him with a view to saving him altogether. The doctor was taken to the building men tloned. and another prisoner was brought up for condemnation.
 The next morning Citizen Demaurier drove up in a cart to the prison where the doctor was confined and presented an order for him signed by the com mittee. The doctor was placed in the cart. and Demaurier. telling tue Ofi- cials that he needed no guard for the prisoner. being himself well armed. drove away. Pursuing his way down the street. he soon reached the river bank and the outskirts of Paris. Then be stopped and said to his prisoner:
 ''You do not know me. NJ. le Doc teurT'
 You are the citizen judge"
 ''More than that am Jean De maurier."

 "You are very kind. but do not care to leave my daughter and my sou-in- i law here to die
 Where are theyT' "In the conciergerie, 1 believe" "yery well: l shall see what can ! do for them. l am thoroughly trusted, being known as the man who was crip- pied by a noble. will take you to my home. return and possibly may bring those you love with me"
 But will l not be missed and you be charged with setting me freeT"
 "I think not. They haTe so many heads to chop of that the moment a prisoner disappears he is saved If | am asked about you ! will tell them you have been tortured and executed fin private. Now lie down fin the cart. and I will drive on."
 Jean. before reaching his home. where his load was likely 10 be seen by his neIghbors. stopped beside a field where there was grain in sheaf and put enough over his burden to conceal him. then drove on and turned fin at his farm by a lane leading to the barn.
 The doctor remained concealed in the loft of Demauriers barn for a week. Meanwhile Demaurier was fin Paris. endeavoring to find the Count and Countess DestaIlles- They had become separated. and Demaurier spent con- siderable time discovering where they were.
