Looking around to ascertain what

She could not resist smiling at the
charming manner of his plea. She felt
weak and strange-a little dizzy. Be-

from the doorway and then her moth

After long intermission came an
other outburst from Dellarmes men,
which she interpreted as the response
to another rush by the Grays; and this
yelping of the demon was not that
of the hound after the hare, as in
