CHAPTER xl-continued.

It was fortunate that the accident
had occurred where it did. Five miles
beyond was the station marked for the
arrest of Norton as an abductor and
the taking in charge of Florence as a
rebellious girl who had run away from
her parents. If he could reach the
Swede's hut. where his confederates
were in waiting, the game was his.
After struggling along for half an
hour carriage was spied by yroon,
and he hailed it when it reached his
side.

the farmer.

About three miles,"
''I'll give you twenty dollars for the

"But it's a case of humanity, sir.v

the unfortunate"
Tie farmer thought,it it over for a mo-
ment. "All right. You can have the
buggy for twenty dollars When you
get to the village take the nag to Doc

do
Thank you. Help me in with her"
vroon drove away without the least
intention OF going toward the village.
AS result, when Florence came to
her senses she found herself sur
rounded by strange and ominous faces.
At first she thought that they had
taken her from the wreck out of kind
ness; but when she saw the cold,
impassiye face of the man Vroon she
closed her eyes and lay back in the
chair. Well, Ill and weak as she was,
they should find that she was not
without certain strength.

looked about in vain for Florence He
searched among the crowd of terrified
passengers, the hurt and the un-
harmed, but she was not to be found.
He ran back to the princess and helped
her out of the broken car

dazedly.

They had already erected one, and
his message went off with batch of
others. This time he was determined
not to trust to chance. The shock
may have brought back Florence's re

have wandered off without knowing
what she was doing. On the other
hand, she may have been carried off
