 We are informed that you have bought gherrf from Mir Robert farFsll,* said the efficeT.
 That Is so," said kuttall, who cons eeiyed that for him this was the end Of the world,
 "fou are in no haste, 1t seems, te 1 declare the same al the Eaereisry's office" The emissary had a proper bureaucratic haushtiness.

 The pompous officer departed. leay- nig Nuttall in cold precipitation de- spite the heat Of the morning. He thought it very likely that the whole plot would be discovered. and that he would probably he hanged. or at least branded and sold into slavery like those other damned rebel.eonyiets. with whom he had been so mad as 10 associate himself.
 Nuttall snatched up his hat. and | went out in quest Of Peter Blood. But where look for him?
 Finally he determined to go mp 10 | Colonel Bishops plantation. Prob- ably Blood would be there, II he were not. Nuttall would find Pitt, and | leave a message with him. He was acquainted with Pitt and knew of Pitts share In this business. His pretext for seeking Blood must be that he needed medical assistance.
 And at the same time that he set out. Blood was setting out from Gov ernment House at last. having 50 far ensed the Governors condition as to he permitted to depart. Being he would. but for an unex- pected delay, have reached the stock ade ahead Of Nuttall. in which case everal unhappy events might NJe been averted. The unexpected delay was occasioned by Miss Arabella Bishop.
 They met at the gate of the luxuri- mt garden of Government House. and Miss Bishop, herself mounted. stared o see Peter Blood on horseback.
 Good morning, sir she hailed Jim pleasantly. Its close upon a month since last saw you"
 ''Twenty-one days to the hour" aid he. i've counted them."
 If he would wait q moment they would ride back together. She had ut come to inquire of the Governors lealth at her uncle's request.
 So he waited, and so they rode ,ack to Colonel Bishops house. They ode oblivious of all others in the world that morning. He was telling fer the story of his early turbulent avs.

Peter Blood handed the sum to his new associate. and Nuttall went of with instructions to com plete the purchase late on the follow ing day, and then bring the boat to the wharf, where under cover of night Blood and his fellow-convicts would join him and make off. At sunset Peter Blood was hailed by Colonel Bishop. There's the Governor. with an attack of gout, screaming like wounded horse. Be off. man-away with you at speed to Government House. Best lend him a horse. Kent. or the lout'll be all night getting there."
 They hustled him away. choking al- most from a reluctance that he dared not show. The thing was unfortun, ate; but after all not beyond remedy. The escape was set for midnight, and he should easily be back by then.
 He mounted the horse that Kent procured him, intending to make all haste.
 How shall re-enter the stockade, sir?" he inquired at parting.
 "You'll not re-enter it." said Bishop. When they've done with you at Government House, they may find kennel for you. there until 
 Peter Blood went off in a state of mind bordering on despair. post of the escape at least until tomorrow night was necessary now, and postponement must mean the dis covery of Nuttall's transaction and the asking of questions it would be diffi- cult to answer.

 On that pretext, he made an excur- ion into the awakening town, and vent straight to Nuttall.
 Tt will be for tonight instead" he aid, with more assurance than he cit, If have to bleed the Governor o death. Be ready as last night"
 But if there are questions mean ,hile?" bleated Nuttall.

 need to recruit others into their en-
 terprise. a half-dozen at least. a half, score if possible. but no more than that, They must pick the best ou, of that score of survivors Of the Mon. mouth men that Colonel Bishop had acquired. Men who understood the there were only two in that unfortun- ate gang. and their knowledge was none too full. They were Hagthorpe, . gentleman who had served in the Royal Navy. and Nicholas Dyke. who had been n petty officer in the late kings time. and there was another who had been gur ner, man named ogie.
 Caution above everything" was Floods last recommendation to him at parting.
 Coming next morning to the wharf. Blood found Dr. Whacker in generous mood.
 Its not money I'll require" said he. but the boat itself. For who will be selling me boat and incur ring the penalties in Governor Steed's proclamation? Yen have read 1t, nc doubt?"
 pr. Whacker smiled little with tight lips. I've thought of it. You will see that the man who buys the boa. must be one Of those who goes with you--so that he is not here to answe, questions afterward.'
 But who is to go with me save men in my own case? What I cannot do. they cannot.
 There are others detained on the island besides slaves. There are several who are here for debt. and | would be glad enough to spread their l wings. There's fellow Nuttall, | now, who follows the trade of ship wright, whom happen to know | would welcome such a chance as you | might afford him.
 But how should debtor come with money to buy a boat? The question will be asked"
 ITO be sure it will. But if you contrive shrewdly, you'll all be gone before that happens
 So well did Blood take him that an hour he contrived to see Nuttall, and found the fellow as dis posed to the business as Dr. Whacker had predicted. When he left the it was agreed that Nut all should seek the boat required, for
