CHAPTER XV.
I have asked Miss Mary Weston to
end her narrative at this point I think
It better that I should now take up
the threads of the story,
Aater Marnac's escape from Poland,
Sir Henry Graden and I traveled to Ber
lin. There we carefully examined the
book of extracts which had come into our
Lands, and sent warning letters to those
writers who from the marginal notes

madman's anger against them. The ex

ell, it's against all tho rules; but,
of course, with you it doesn't matter.
He is Dr. Weston, the Regius Professor
of Physic at Cambridge. The old gen
tiemau has been very seedy, I hear, and
is down at PoIIoven, on tho Cornish
coast, for the winter. That article seems
to have attracted a lot of attention. I
had an old fellow hero kicking up a fuss
about it less than a week ago."
"hat did ho want to know?" broko
in Graden sharply.
It was a long rlgamarolo of a story,
but it boiled down to this: that wo were
charged with hopelessly misprinting Dr.
Weston's MSS. To get rid of the old
boy, I sent up for tho original copy of
the article and showed It to him. Ho
went away quite satisfied after that'

his errand of vengeance. Two minutes
later I heard him call, and, breaking
off tho excuses that I was inventing, I
ran through tho houso to join him.
Miss Weston and ho were standing bo
fore the porch alone. She was leaning
on his arm, panting from great exertion.
"Think of it, Robert!" cried my cousin.
"He chased her the villain followed and
chased her!"
"How Is my father?" she faltered.
"Is he as this gentleman says qulto
unharmed?"
"Quito safe, I assuro you," I answered.
"I must go to him."
"Ouo moment, Miss Weston," said my
cousin. "We have yet a duty to tho
public safety. Which way did this man
ruu?"
She told her story quickly. After sho
had left us and gained the cliff turf abovo
tho glen, sho glanced back. To her sur
prise, she caught a glimpse of him stand
ing amongst the trees on the opposite
slope. Her delay had aroused his sus
picions, and he had followed her. Sho
walked slowly forward and, as wo had
directed, moved uneasily about on the;
vergo of tho precipice. Presently
again glanced over her shoulder,

It was on the evening of Sunday, Nov,

At eleven on the following morning we
were ushered by a buttony boy into the
editorial sanctum of the University Re

seated before his American roller-top
desk. He was a very large and sleek
young man, with plump cheeks of a dingy
color, and pinee-uez glasses which he
wore half way down his nose. His gen

pacity for plum-duff and sugar water.
and he oozed self-appreciation from every
pore.
"And what can I do for you?" he
Inquired, with a sedate patronage.
"in tne month ol August, said my
cousin, declining the chair that Mr.
Holies suggested, "you published an arti

written by Prof. Maniac of Heidelberg."
"Most certainly. Pray proceed."
"For the must urgent pr.vate reasons
I desire 'Cantab s' name and address."
"Which I cannot give you," said Mr.
JIoKes, lighting u gola-tipped cigarette.
My cousin walked up to the editorial

I saw the right hand of my cousin
steal out towards the ed.io.'ial collar, but

"You reduce me, sir, to speak of my

J.e said. "Have you never heard of my

"I will accept your offer, sir," said he.

excitement The next express from Pnd
dington was at midnight, and it was
timed to arrive at the nearest station
to Polleven that the map showed us by
twelve-thirty the following morning. But
that village itself was distant by road
a good fifteen miles from tho station
With Cornish hills we should be lucky
if we arrived there by three in the after
noon. The postal guide informed us that
our letter of warning would be deliv

telegram for there was no wire to Polle

There was nothing more to be done,
It was, indeed, shortly before three
o'clock that our carriage groaned and
screeched its way down the steep descent
into Polleven village. At the inn we
soon discovered tho direction or ur.
Weston's cottage, and, taking the advice
of the landlord as to the roughness of the
track thither, we left our carriage and
started off on foot After a stiff climb
of three-quarters of a mile between rug
