That ended the conference. The
young officer, evidently indignant,
strode back to his line, and an hour

added in a moment, extending both

She folded her arms and stood boldly
erect.
Never before. in all his life, had he
felt such a rebuke. He gave her a
straight, strong look in the eyes.

rushed from the house to the fort.
She held her rigid attitude tor a little
while after she heard him shut the
front gate of the yard so forcibly that
it broke in pieces, then she flung her
arms wide. as if to clasp something,
and ran to the door; but Beverley was

into a chair. Jean came to her out Of
the next room. His queer little face
was pale and pinched; but his jaw
was set with the expression of one
who has known danger and can meet
it somehow.

Alice of Old Vincennes
By Maurice Thompson
coPYRIGHT 1905 BY ALICE LEE THOMPSON
BEGIN HERE

ALICE, whom
GASPARD ROUSSILLON of Vincennes had
taken from the Indians. did not remember
how they came in possession OF her. a
lOcket she had always worn bore family
crest and the name
TARLETON.
LIEUT.. FITZHUGH BEVERLEY, an officer
OF the American Army during the RevO-
lutiOnsrv War. who loved Alice. recognized
the name as that of an old Virginian fam
ly.
When the news reached Vincennes of
the intended attack on them by the Eng
fish, the defense was weak and ROussillOn,
believing he was acting wisely, stole TO
the camp of the English and told
GOVERNOR HAMILTON, the English gen
eral, that as mayor of Vincennes he Of
fcislly offered them the command of the
town. HamiltOn's knowledge of ROussil-
Ions share in submitting Vincennes to
rebel dominion caused him to take ROus-
sillOn captive and to give orders for the
English to proceed Immediately toward
FinCennes. Hamilton had previously
gained possession of letter sent by
CAPTAIN HELM, in charge of the Amer
lean fort to
GEN. GEORGE ROGERS CLARK, telling of
the shortage of men at Vincennes
Meanwhile Beverley called on Alice to
learn what she thought of the situation.
