The three Of them were flung violent

Of steel against steel. A low wall Of
horror rose and died away as the car
careened over on its side. The three
were rendered unconscious and we're
huddled together on the floor, under
the uprooted chairs.
Vroon had escaped with only a slight
cut on the hand from flying glass. He
climbed over the chairs and passen-
gers with a single object in view. He
saw that all three he was interested
in were insensible. He quickly exam
ined them and saw that they had not
received serious injuries. He had but
little time. The princess and Norton
would have to take their chance with
the other passengers. Resolutely he
stopped and lifted Florence in his
arms and crawled out OF the car with
her. 1t was a difficult task, but he
managed 1t. Outside, in the confusion,
no one paid any attention to him. So
he threw the unconscious girl over
his shoulder and staggered on toward
the road.
1t 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 9

her parents. II he could reach the

were in waiting, the game was his.

side.
