In the spacious, stone-fagged hall,
the doctor found Lord Gildoy-a very
tall and dark young gentleman,
prominent of chin and nose--stretch-
ed on a cane day-bed under one of
the tall mulIioned windows, in the
care OF Mrs. Baynes and her comely
daughter. His cheeks were leaden-
hued, his eyes closed. and from his
blue lips came with each iabored
breath q faint, moaning noise.
Mr.. Blood stood for moment
silently considering his patient. He
deplored that a youth with such
bright hopes in life as Lord GiIdoy's
should have risked all, perhaps ex-
istence itself. to forward the ambition
of a worthless adventurer. Because
he had liked and honored this brave
lad he paid his case the tribute Of a

Mr.. Blood went Oft to dress and to

Questions concerning the precise
nature of Lord Gildoy's hurt could
wait until they were on their way.
Whilst he pulled on his boots he
gave Mrs. Barlow instructions for
the day, which included the matter
of a dinner he was not destined to
eat.

Pitt smothered in q crowd of scared,

they disturbed the morning air.

would afford them. Eyes glazed with
lassitude and fear looked up piteously
out OF haggard faces at Mr.. Blood
and his companion as they rode
forth; hoarse voices cried a warning
that merciless pursuit was not far
behind. Undeterred, however, young
Pitt rode amaiE along the dusty road

hooking In ever-increasing numbers.
Presently he swung aside, and, quit

that crossed the dewy meadowlands.
Even hero they met odd groups Of
these human derelicts. who were
scattering in all directions. looking
fearfully behind them as they came
through the long grass. expecting at
every moment to see the red coats of
the dragons.
But as Pitts direction was a
southward one. bringing them ever
nearer to Feversham's headquarters,
they were presently clear of that
human fotsam and jetsam of the
battle and riding through the
