and meets the animals mistress

her in his own rooms for the rest
Of the night. He returns a little

his rooms and JacQueline dazed,
with her memory gone. He decides

I pulled my pistols, from my pockets
and spun round, firing in every direc-

gave me vision.
The clouds had obscured the sky

hands were bare and numb, except
where the cold steel of the pistol trig-

metal.
A dog barked once more very far
away, and at last understood their
scheme.

huts at dawn and had discovered us
there. He must have been in waiting.

me he changed his plans and sent the
sleigh after her. Then, realizing from

had remained behind with some of his
followers to enjoy the sport of bait

out of the way while the sleigh went
on.

I was lying upon a bed of dried
balsam leaves inside a little hut, and
through the half-open door could see
the sun just dropping behind the
mountains. Upon a wall hung big
crucifix Of wood, and under it an old
man was standing.
He heard me stir and came toward

"Where is Mile Duchaine?" I burst
out
Father Antoine laid a heavy hand
upon my shoulder.
"Be assured, monsieur, that madame

her friends," he said "And no doubt
