A DISTANT clock was striking
4 4 as Barnabas rode in at the
rusted gates Of Ashleydown and up
beneath an avenue Of somber trees
beyond which rose the chimneys Of
a spacious house. clear and plain
against the palpitating splendor Of
the stars. But the house. like its
surroundings, wore a desolate,
neglected look, moreover it was
dark, not "A light was to be seen
anywhere from attic to cellar.
Yet. as Barnabas followed the
sweep Of the avenue, he suddenly
espied a soft glow that streamed
from an uncurtained window giving
upon the terrace; therefore he drew
rein, and dismounting, led his horse
in among the trees and, having
tethercd him there. advanced to-
ward the gloomy house, his gaze
upon the lighted window, and tread
ing with an even growing caution.
Nov, as he went he took out one
Of the pistols, cooked it, and with
it ready in his hand, came to the
window and peered into the room.
It was a long. low chamber with
a fireplace at one end. and here, his
froWning gaze bent upon the blazing
logs sat Mr. Chichester. Upon the
small table at his elbow were de-
canter and glasses, with a hat and
gloves and a long travelling cloak
As B3Inab3s stood there Mr.. Chi

rope that hung beside the mantel
jerked it viciously. and so fell to

door opened and a bullet-headed
square-shouldered fellow entered. a
formidable ruffian with pugilist
written in his every feature; to
whom Mr.. Chichester appeared to
give certain commands: and so dis
missed him with an impatient
gesture Of his slim, white hands.
Then Barnabas raised the pistol
butt and. beating IN the window,
lOoscd the catch. and, as Mr.
Chichester sprang to his feet,
opened the easement and stepped
into the room.
For a long moment neither spoke.
while eyes met and questioned eyes,

frOnted each other thus. each was
the opposite of the other. Barnabas
