half contemptuously, as a fool rush

Holes was a man Of his hands
trained in the hardest school of all
and although for some months now
sword practice had been a thing neg
lected by him. yet it never occurred
to him that he should find serious op.
position in a creature whose proper
environment was the court rather
than the camp. The Duke of Bucking-
ham, whilst milking no parade of the
fact. was possibly the best blade of

present affair merely as a tiresome in
terruption TO be brushed aside as
speedily as possible.
Therefore he attacked with vigor.

ent made him careless. It was we'll

that combat that Holes had reflected
that to kill the Duke would be much
