Then, in flash without Il word OF
warning or explanation. he sprang al
me and seized me by the throat.
] was utterly unprepared for his
attack and fell heavily backward
Sgainst the manteI shelf. Taken thus
by surprise, | was at serious dis
advantage. / tore and struck at his
hands and wrists, but his fingers
would not loose their hold, and pres
emily / felt my strength beginning tc
ebb. All the time We were sWaylne
desperately up and down. We slith-
cred along the edge of the mantel
shelf till we came to the end, when
a heavy kick on my shin felled me &c
the ground, and we rolled on the
hearth rug.
Up to that moment l had been more
amazed than frightened or angry
but, as ] lay there on the floor, the
breath being rapidly choked out OF
me, black rage took hold of me.
l stretched out hand, with the
object of trying to place a swinging
blow at his head, and my knuckles
came in contact with the hearth, ir
which l had deposited the butt Of my
cigarette, just before he had entered
the room. Although ] was fast los
ing consciousness. I was alive enough
TO act on the thought which came into
my head as my knuckles touched Tho
hearth. and, picking up the cigarette
end, which was fortunately still
alight, for my fingers touched the
glowing end of it, ! applied ii TO the
nape of his neck.
II was a good fat stump, the re-
mains of one Of those big Virginiar
cigarettes, the "Greys," l think they
call them, and 1t must have burnt
/, i'm, az
| loosed one hand and clapped it TO tht
back OF his neck. The same instant
| knocked his other hand away anC
staggered to my feet, gasping, every
| thing swimming before me in a mis-
| of red.
| He was up a moment later, and, a.
| he rose to his feet, / hit him with al
! the force ] could muster OH the poin
| of the jaw hadn't delivered such
punch as that since the day when
| had knocked out the Ashingford mid
dleweight, when l was fighting al
| captain of my school boxing team
| and he fell with a thud. / had knock
| ed all the consciousness out of him.
| I stood leaning on the mantel shelf
| breathing heavily, and feeling slight
| ly sick. Ny rage had departed, ant
l was trembling little at the knees
My first coherent thought was, -"
! wonder whether any one heard u
| fghting?"; my next. why did he at
| tack me-"
| I listened but could hear nothing
| but my own breathing. The hearth
rug, which was a good, thick one, hat
deadened the sound of our fall.

examine my late opponent. There wa
no doubt about il. | had knocked

! had received in falling against TIL
corner of the hearth had completed

what ] should do.
| The gentleman on the hearth rui
was evidently Karl. who was clearl
some kind of agent Of the gang int
