He drew from his pocket four small

them in his palm.
"Looll at them" He held out his
hand, so that the two men could see
the little coins. "ThOse We're taken

with elaboration, he said:
This is not a matter of expedi-
ency, but of principle. My heart tells
me what to do, and my heart has al

There was silence for a long time.
At last the old man drew the cloak
about his shoulders and turned to-
ward the door.
"Wait minute, father" said Dyck.
Don't 90 like that. You'd better not

"And you-if you're set free?"
"If I'm acquitted, I'll take to the

CHAPTER VII
Dyck's Father Visits Him.

In vain DyCk's lawyer, viii Nc
Cormick, urged him to deny absolute
ly the killing Of Erris Boyne. Dyck
would not do so. He had, however,
Immediately on being Jailed, written
to the government, telling of the pro
jected invasion of Ireland by the
French fleet, and saying that it had
come to him from a sure source. The
government had at once taken action.
Regarding the death of BOyne the
only living thing in his favor was
that his own sword-point was free
from stain. His lawyer made the ut
most of this, but to no avail. The
impression in the court was that both
had quarreled and that without a
duel being fought DyCk had Killed
his enemy.
That there had been no duel was
sword was undrawn. The charge,
however, on the instigation of the
attorney general who was grateful
for the information about France,
had been changed from murder to
manslaughter, though it seemed clear
that BOyne had been ruthlessly killed
by a man whom he had befriended.
On one of the days of the trial,
Dyck's father, bowed, mOrose, and
obstinate, came to see him.
Miles Calhoun looked at his son
with detection. His eyes wandered
over the grimly furnished cell. His
nose smelled the damp of it, and
suddenly the whole soul of him burst
forth.
you don't give yourself a chance
of escape, Dyck You know what
Irish iuries are. Why don't you tell
| the truth about the quarrel? What's
the good of keeping your mouth shut,
when there's many that would profit
by your telling it?'
"Who would profit?" asked Dyck.
"Who would proft?' snarled the
old man. "Well, you would profit
first, for it might break the dark chain
of circumstantial evidence. Also your
father would profit. I'd be saved
shame, perhaps; I'd get relief from
this disgrace. Oh, man, think of
| others besides yOursefw
"Think of others!' said Dyck and
queer smile lighted his haggard
face. "Td save myself If l honor

AS Sheila read, the tears started
from her eyes; and at last she could
read no longer, so her mother took
the letter from her and read the rest
of it aloud. When she had finished,
there was a Silence-a long warm 81
lence; then, at last, Mrs. Llyn rose to
her feet.
"Sheila, when shall we go?"
With frightened eyes Sheila sprang
up.

murmured.

Synopsis. - Returning home after
a days shooting, Dyck Calhoun,
gifted young Irish gentleman of the
time of the French and American
revolutions, meets Sheila Llyn, sew
enteen-year-ol girl visiting in the
neighborhood. They are mutually
attracted Sheila never knew her
dissipated father, Erris Boyne, her
mother having divorced him and
resumed her maiden name. Reach
ing home, Dyck finds Leonard
Mallow, son of Lord Mallow, with
a message from the attorney gem
eral summoning Miles Calhoun,
DyCk's father, to Dublin. They
go to Dublin and there Nal
low quarrels with DyCk and duel
is arranged They fight with
swords and Dyck is victor. Erris
Boyne, secretly in French employ,
gets Dyck drunk and tries to per-
suade him to join in revolt against
England. They quarrel and Dyck
is overheard to threaten Boyne.
While the former is overcome with
drugged wine, BOyne's second wife
enters the room and stabs her
faithless husband to the heart.
DyCk is arrested on a charge of
murder. He does not know if he
killed BOyne or not, he was so mud
died with the drugged wine. Sheila
begs her mother to go to Dublin
with her to help Dyck. Mrs. Llyn
opposes the idea.

sale of your sporting kit. There was
the boat upon the lake, the gun and all
kinds Of riffraff stuff not sold with
PlaymOre.'
Dyck nodded and smiled.
Good Michael :"
Then he drew himself up stitfly and
blew in and out his breath as if with
the joy of living For four hard years
he had been denied the free air of
free men. Even when walking in
the prison yard, on cold or fair days,
when the air was like a knife or when
it had the sun of summer in it, it still
had seemed to choke him.
In prison he had read, thought and
worked much. They had at least done
that for him. The attorney general
had given him freedom to work with
his hands, and to slave in the work
shop like one whose living depended
"a it. Some phianthropic official
had started the idea of workshop,
and the officials had given the best Of
the prisoners a chance to learn trades
and make a little money before they
went out into the world. All that
Dyck had earned went to purchase
things he needed, and to help his fell
low prisoners or their families.
Where was he now? The gap be-
tween the old life of nOnChaIance, fri
volity, fantasy and excitement was
as great as that between heaven and
hell. Here he was, after four years
of prison, walking the highway with
two of the humblest creatures of Ire
land, and yet, as his soul said, two Of
the best.
Stalking along in thought, he sud
denly became conscious that Michael
and Christopher had fallen behind.
He turned round.
Come on. Come on with me-"
But the two shook their heads.
IT'S not fitting, you a Calhoun of
PlaymOre!" Christopher answered
"Well, then, listen to me-" said
Dyck, for he saw she men could not

Dyck read the letter with a wonder
full slowness. He realized that by
happy accident-it could be nothing
else-Mrs. Llyn had been able to keep
from her daughter the fact that the
man who had been killed in the tavern
by the river was her father.
Sheila's ignorance must not be
broken by himself. He had done the
right thing-he had held his peace for
the girls sake, and he would hold it
to the end. Slowly he folded up the

it in the pocket over his heart
