April y 18th, 1778.
After a time Jaffrey appeared again in
the courtyard.
"Ho, mine hoet Petorl" he spoke. " 'Tls
In my mind to tarry tonight with you. See
to It that a bed be well aired, I beg, and
look kindly to Falrfnoc, my mare. She Is

With those word he wilkod away Into

bidding.
Not till late did be return, and then In
a perturbed mood. Ho quietly did be enter

board him not, nor censed In their lntid
talking. But JutTrvy paid little heed to
them, thinking them some noisy toper,
till a word caught his ear. And that word
wa "Annabel!)." Then a look not good
to see settled upon his fiico, and n oarer to
the wall he crvpt and listened.
Anthony, why art such a poltroon?"
angrily exclaimed one of the speaker. "I
toll you this onup must be successful, and
surely we are not In such good odor with
the commander that we can afford to let
slip any opportunity. Moreover," he add
ed, "the girl Annabello will aid us."
Think you the Jmlo I faithful?" de
manded another. " Mceeero she look too

"Pshaw, she but dupe the poor fool!"
Id the first with a hoarse laugh. "She

Wurroll, on the other side of the wall,
gritted bis teeth In bl rage and felt fran
tically for hi rapier.
Then reveal your plan, Do Lacy,"
growled a third Impatiently. "Time file
and tomorrow Is soon here."
"Briefly, then, It la to seize about two-

Is brewing iu thut quarter and at the same
time do us a world of good with Corn
wallis. Tomorrow we will aot. Are ye
agreed?"
"We are," returned the other.
A the conversation coaxed Worrell turn
ed away, and iiumedlutely the rumble of a
carriage and the hoof bent of galloping
borses sounded on bl ear.
"She conies," be muttered. "And now
for the truth."
A the itage dashed up before the door
be stepped Into the courtyard and assisted
a young lady, heavily veiled, to alight.
Then, leading the way, be entered the Inn,
closely followed by bl companion.
M You are come," he wblHpered. "Now,
by the heavens above, speak truly, I abjure
you!"
"What?" she asked.
"Is It possible you deceive mo?"
"Juffrcy, I am as true as the eternal
skies."
They entered the breakfast room and
were astonished to find four British officers
standing near the fire. They suuined very
merry.
" What!" exclaimed one, laughing. " 'Tls
our little Annabcllc. "
The girl shrunk Luck, whllo Juffrcy'
rage rose high, for he rcuognlzcd the plot
ter's voice.
"What mean you, Birnili?" he demand
ed. "You owe the lutly an apology."
"Ho, hoi" laughed the soldier. "This Is
the Yankee lover, 1m it? Ho, ho!" And he
turned his hack Impudently on the pair
"Aye, and I know your precious plot,"
shouted Jaffrey, whipping out bis blude.
"On guard, sir."
"What?" roared the officer. "Then, in
deed, has your time come. Down with
him, lads!"
In an instant four blades were playing
about bis head, and the American was In
extreme peril.
By the fierceness of his attack be beat
down the officer's blude, and In a twin
kling bud paHStid the steel through his
body. Then flinging a chair at the man
between him and the door, be leaped over
bis prostrute form and flung shut the stout
oaken portul. A be bruoed himself
against it, ho was aHtonlxhcd to soe Anna

"Behold," she murmured, "the latch
has been lost. They may easily force their

" 'lis true," l.o muttered moodily.
"Their plot will ho carried out despite

"Not so," sho tiiado reply. "Behold the
proof tlii.t I uiji an American, though my

She thrust her arm through the two
openings for the nilnsing bolt, and thus
with her flesh und blood barred the door.
"Fly, my love, print huKte to Conoord.
