CHAPTER XXI.
Tournament Day.

The noon sun of tournament day
shone brilliantly over the village,
drowsy noalonger, for many vehicles
were hitched at the curb, or moved
leisurely along the leafy street: big,
canvas-topped country wagons drawn
bv shaggy-hoofed horses and set with
chairs that bumped and jostled their
holiday loads from outlying tobacco
plantation and stud-farm; sober, black
covered buggies, long narrow, spring
less buckboards, frivolous side-bar run
abouts and antique shays resurrected
from the -p-imeval depths of cob
stables, relics of tarnished
grandeur and faded fortune.
At midday vehicles resolved them
selves into n-booths-hampers
slowed away beneath the seats, dis
closing all manner of picnic edibles-
the courthouse yard was an array of
grass spread table-cloths, and an all
of plenty reigned.
Within Mrs Merryweather Mason's
brown house hospitality sat enthroned
and the generous dining-room was
held by regiment OF feminine out-of
town acquaintances.
The yard, an hour later, was an ac-
tive encampment of rocking-chairs
and a din of conversation floated out
over the pink oleandcrs whose tubs
had achieved a fresh coat of bright
green paint for the occasion. Mrs
poly Gifford-a guest of the day
here shone resplendent.

A buzz ran over the assemblage. 1T

said Judge Chalmers. II heard this

At the moment a single mounted
herald before the tents blew long
blast on a silver horn. Their flaps
parted and eleven knights issued to
mount their steeds and draw into line
behind him. They were brilliantly
decked in fieshlings with slashed doub-
lets and plumed chapeaus, and short
jeweled cloaks dropped from their
shoulders. Pages handed each long
lance which was held perpendicular.

this from it's place, flung 1t about his
waist and knotted it sash-wise. He
drew the rose from his lapel and thrust
it through the band Of his Panama,
leaped to the saddle OF the horse the
major had beckoned and with a quick
thrust of his heel, swung to the end
OF the stamping line.
The field and grand stand had seen
the quick decision, with it's instant ac-
ton, and as the hoofs thudded over
the turf, wave of hand-clapping ran
across the seats like a silver rain.
Neatly done, upon my world" said the
Judge, delighted. What a daring

Katharine Fargo had dropped her
lorgnette with an exclamation. She
stood up, her wide eyes fixed on that
figure in pure white, with the blood
red Gordon Haunting across his horses
flanks and the single crimson blossom
glowing in his hat.

"Who is he?"
Judge Chalmers looked round in sud

would be likely TO know him, he said.

A Vlrglnlan Runnymede.

June in Virginia is something to
remember" Today the master Of
Damory Court deemed this true say
ing. For the air was like wine, and
the drifting white wings Of cloud, piled
above the amethystine ramparts of the
far Blue Ridge, looked down upon a
violet world bound in green and silver.
In his bedroom Valiant stood look
ing into the depths of an ancient ward
robe. Presently he took from a hook
suit of white flannel in which he ar
rayed himself. Over his soft shirt he
knotted pale gray scarf. The modish
white suit and the rolling Panama
threw out in fine contrast the keen
sun-tanned face and dark brown eyes.
In the hall below he looked about
him with satisfaction. For the last
three days he had labored tirelessly to
fit the place for the evenings event.
The parlor now showed walls trimmed
with straight-back chairs and the
grand piano-long ago put in order
had been relegated to the library. That
instinct for the artistic, which had
made him last resort In the vexing
problems of club entertainments, had
aided him in the Courts adornment.
Out of the Kitchens Cassandra's
egg-beating chatted like watchman's
rattle, while Aunt Daphne put the fin

before the major seized upon him and
bore him to the purple pavilion, for he
was one Of the committee.
But for this distraction, he might
have seen, entering the stand with the

today her tall willowy figure in its
champagne-color lingerie gown and hat
garnished with bronze and gold this
ties, setting in relief her ivory
statuesqne face, drew a wave Of whis-
pered comment which left a sibilant
wake behind him. The party made
a picturesque group as they now dis
posed themselves, Katharine's color

eager sparkle of pretty Nancy Chal-

Betty Page.
