And with a sweep o f Ids cap the oc centric fellow took his departure and went to find Dttmmty. Knrhonne might he mail, hut there was no doubting the kindly qualities o f his heart. I slowly made for the fort, pausing at the entrance to recon noller the square. It was now quite dark, tin the left and next to the gnte was the governor's quarters, and through nn open window came tin* sound of Ids measured voice. A candle was lighted, and I saw Narhoiine standing by the window. I'asslng on to the tnngnr.lne and guardhouse on the right and at the hack o f the enclosure 1 halted before a small «Alee adjoining the magatine. In which burned a candle. The room was empty, and I entered, and found what I was looking for— writing material. Those few soldiers who were not on ditty were gambling and gossiping in tlielr barracks. Tfie lighted candle evidenced the return o f the governor, or Ids superintendent ; and I made haste to finish my business. For a va riety o f reasons l could not explain niy predicament, and had to content my self with saying: "Mademoiselle C lair* Dahlsgnnrde : T L e r- Is much danger, and yet there Is *> Irsurtnotititahle obstacle for it young woman desiring to travel through this country.

"M onsieur: I find m yself most tin Juslly accused of serving the Inti est of the Kngllsh colonies to the hurt of France.

Monsieur Hrampton," rung out the cold voice o f Hleuvllle. With assumed surprise I wheeled about. The muxxle o f a flintlock pistol of large bore was resting on the sill o f the window, and behind It was the stern. Implacable and suspleloua coun teminee o f the governor. As I twisted to face the window my Ixidy masked the table. My band gathered up the message to the yoosg woman and, as I brought up uiy foot, shoved It Inside my uioccasln.
