Again tho heart Of Conachur mac
Nessa was stricken. This time he sat
still and thought long, with Layarcham
brooding over him. Quietly he gathered

messengers said, living in caves and

and his voice was oil, and his step was
velvet smooth aa he crept toward his
revenge and the punishment OF the un-
faithful. Fair promises, references to
giyeness, the largess OF a king toward
his subjects. Little by little the suspi-
cjons and fears OF the homesick fugi-

incredulity hardly sprouted in their in
nocent hearts. The rest of tho story Is
slaughter. But before this last moment
there are q few hours OF amazing In

courage and fierce fighting and the de-.
