CHAPTER XXI.
The whIrIIno Of the Wheel.

As old as church or cloister, the
massive wheel Of the Mount had. In
the past. played prominent part In the
affairs OF succeeding communities on
the rock. II. or the hempen strand It
controlled, had primarily served as a
link between the sequestered dwellers,
and the hesh-pots and material COM
forts OF the lower world Through its
use had my lord. the abbot, been ever
enabled to keep full the mighty wine
butts OF his cellars; TO provide good
cheer for the tables OF the brethren,
and to brighten his cold stone interiors
with the fresh greens OF Flemish tap
estry. or the sensuous hues of rugs
and fabrics from seraglio or mosque.
Times less ancient had likewise
claimed its services, and even in re-
cent years, by direction of his Excel.

some for men or mules.
Toward this simple monkish con-
trivance, the SUBMITS rough lift. or
elevator. wherein serfs or henchmen
had walked like squirrels In cage to
bring solace to generations OF isolated
dwellers, the Black Seigneur had at
. fret stepped impetuously; then
stopped. hardly breathing, to look over
his shoulder at the door that had been
left unfastened. An involuntary ques-
ton flashing through his brain--the
cause OF this seeming carelessness-
found almost immediate answer In his
mind, and the certainty that he stood
not there alone-a consciousness OF
some one else. near. became abruptly
confirmed.
What are you doing. SOLDIER" A
voice, rough, snarling. drew swiftly his
glance toward a presence, intuitively
OWNED; an understood, grotesque fig
ure that had entered the place but a
few moments before and now appeared
from behind boxes and casks where
he had been about to retire to his
mattress In corner.

And inaction giving way to movement
on the intruder's part, knife that had
flashed back In the hand Of the bunch
back, with his query, was swiftly
twisted from him and kicked aside.
while a scream Of mingled pain and
rage became abruptly suppressed.
Struggling and writing like wild
cat, Jacques proved no mean antagon-
list; with a strength incredible for one
of his size. supplemented by the we'll
known agility of his kind, he scratched,
kicked and had managed to get the
others hand in his mouth, when, max
ing an effort to throw Off that clinging
burden, the Black Seigneur dashed
