A RIDE IN A NIGHT SHIRT.
JIuiiiorouN Incident of William the
Conuucror'H Koeaiie l'rutn a
lliiuil of A.inh!ii.
Among several incidents of "Tin
Boyhood of "The Conqueror,' " related
by Adele K. Orpen, is this account of a
midnight flight:
One of these shooting-matches near
ly eosl him his life. He was about 2
years old when, in early summer of tl.i
year 1047, he went with a large train r,l
friends and attendants to shoot
at ValofMies. In those days there wen.
great forests covering the hills and
ulieys tuouud Valognes, and as thes
forests were full of game the youn?;
duke and his friends expected to en
joy themselves. They formed so largi
a party that they had to separate ui.l
lodge where they could in the town
This left the duke with only a few serv
ants in t he castle, in the middle of tin
night he was suddenly awakened by a
loud knocking, und the shouting oi
some one mounting the stairs to his
chamber, lie listened, and recognize!
the voice of (Juliet, a strolling buffoon
whom lie knew very well, and to whoi'i
he hail frequently given little trifles.
"Fly! i!.v!" shouted the buffoon
"William, thou art lost! Fly, sweet
friend! Thy murderers are coming!
I saw them. ITy, or thou wilt be
taken!"
William had been through too mnnj
dangers, and had had too many narrow
escapes, to neglect such a warning. Hr
be'Jeved that (Juliet, though but a fool,
spoke the truth. He sprang from hlf
bed, und, in Ills nightdress, with onh
a short cloak flung upon his shoulder-:
.lashed downstairs and into the court
yard, l'ehrnps he heard the sound of
iriued men approaching; perhaps lie
leeded lo hear nothing more in ordei
to realize his danger; at all events, he
jeized the first horse he could find,
.eaped upon it bareback, and rode for
lis life.
Not a moment too soon. He had
icnree galloped out of the courtyard
jefore several armed men hurriedly
ode into it. Oallet met them nt the
nitrance. lie had seen them a short
line before from his hayloft nt the
mi, when they were preparing for
.heir murderous errand, and whence
iu hud run to warn his "sweet friend"
iVilliam. He knew them and their pur
)ose, "Ha, ha!" hu cried, with mad
rlee, "you're late, my sirs; you're int.!.
The duke is gone! William is off!
I'our stroke hits missed! But hurkye;
jlde u bit. He will pay you! You made
liim pass u bad night he will make
(ou seo mi ill day." And then lie cn
aered derisively about them. St.
