dimly lighted interior OF the temple

mainland! He felt the sweat break
out upon his face as he thought of
Marion being in that mob, tired and
fainting with her terrible days ex-

panic-stricken feet of those stronger
than herself. He hoped now for that
which at first had filled him with de-
spair-that Strang had hidden Marion

himself OF the crowd he ran to the

her his bride that night But did
Obadiah know that the castle had
been abandoned? Did he know that
the kings wives had sought refuge in

Marion was hidden? Nathaniel could
