I could still see the road for a dozen
PAGES, but all sense of proportion and
distance had gone from me. The
fog was not stationary, but curled
in broad confusing Wreaths, or poured
sideways upon me In avalanches of
denser mist. Sometimes the car was
on the road, sometimes off it. Twice
l nearly capsized. In the end l
climbed down and went to the horses
head, leading 1T forward at the run.
I made better progress after that
Yet l was not more than half way
to the cairn hill when from the whlrl-
ing shadows to my left there came
sound that set my heart leaping IN
my breast. Tt was the muffled thud
of a rifle
I stopped, listening and staring into
the mist. A second shot followed.
And then, as if raised by these echoes,
there changed a distant bell, a deep
voice OF loud alarm from the prison
tower, telling the moor that a convict
had escaped, that Julius Craig was
free and that II, miserable fool that
had been placed upon me.
I tried not to think, but ran stub
bornly on beside the horse with that
Internal bell rioting In my ears. My
life on the moors had put me in sound
condition, and I never slackened my
pace till 1 had trotted up the rise
TO where the track to the ruined farm
began. I checked the horse and
walked slowly forward studying the
edge of the moor besides the high
way for the mark of the grass-grOwn
ruts knew so well.

saw him, a quick patter upon the
hard surface behind me- AS he came
out of the fog he shouted, bringing
his rifle to his hip with an easy swing.
He was a stoutly built man In the
neat dark uniform that marks the
prison warder.
"Be careful with that gum" I said;
for he still had me covered
'sI beg your pardon, sr," he pant
ed; "but We were close to him and"
'Close to whom"

explained. You haven't seen him?'1,

l could hear the leaves rustiing in
the branches overhead, the distant
elangor of a passing street car. Her
eyes were downcast, then uplifted

Is it not reckless to attempt such a
thing?"
"0f course I would prefer it other
wise," / answered, approaching her
doubt. But where is the choice,
Mademoiselie? You say it offers the
only free egress from this city; the only
safety from arrest. I do not recall
whether it was originally your suggest
ton, or mine, but l perceive nothing
particularly dangerous in the venture"
" Not even if you transport a pas
senger?"
'fThe machine was constructed with
that in view; it was built for military
use, to carry an observer as well as
an operator. I have had companion

Is the monoplane very large, Mon

"Not extraordinary; the weight,

What is full speed?"

She looked at the face of her watch
slowing down as 1T rounded a corner.
"And we have two hours yet until
daylight = one hundred and eighty
miles"
Far too much to expect" Iexplained
quickly. "The air conditions may
not be right, and many things might
occur to cause delay. Yet even if
we attain half that speed we should
be beyond danger. Once safely IN
the air, and we can laugh at pursuit.
You fear trouble before then?"

Eyes, 1 do, MademoiseIle; I do not
believe Brandt will be foiled so easily.
He is the very one to suspect this plan

ahead. Besides it is the secret of
my motor which he is so eager to learn.
He cares little for me, or you-what
becomes of us-so long as he can
shift the suspicious of the police In
our direction, and thus be free himself.

There Is no certainty as to the quail

from the seed, but some sort Of an
edible fruit is almost certain, and one

your chance to prove It, He didn't
say anything, just stuck out his hand,
and we shook. Then we got smith and
the three of us told the captain we

"The Ryndam camA tumbling along.
Captain Ince and the rest went off In
