ile was awaicened by a squadron of
cavalry passing along the road. The
sun had not yet risen, but it was light.
He could look right down on them,
though they could not see him. They
trotted along slowly, all looking worn
and sleepy. They were evidently the
men who had passed the night before,
and were going back from an unsuccess
ful hunt. Mark noticed the different
positions many of them took in order to
rest in their saddles. The sight took
him back to his own troop, and he longed
to be in the stirrups again with them.
There is no time like a wakeful night
to magnify distress, and nothing like an
unclouded rising sun to drive it away.
Mark looked out on the stretch of coun
try to be seen from his window the
Tennessee and the mountains beyond,
their tops tinged with yellow light and
was as unreasonably hopeful as he had
been despondent. His pleasurable sen
sations suddenly received a new check.
An officer of the cavalry that had passed,
followed by two men, came riding back.
Maybe they were coming to the house.
They stopped at the gate. One of the
men rode forward, dismounted and
opened it. The officer entered and rode
up to the front door.
Mark 8 heart seemed to stop beating.
He could not see what was going on
below so close under his window, but
presently heard the officer talking to
gome one On the vei'Jt-. -
'A Federal spy eoZUped ' last night
from Chattanooga, madam. He was in
the disguise of a negro girl." There was
something more which was unintelli
gible.
Then Mark heard the word "no
spoken in a voice which he thought waB
Mrs. Fain's.
'He was tracked to the river, which
he muBt have crossed. He probably
landed a mile or two below Chattanooga,
and we believe he is hiding somowhere
within a few miles of this place."
"You are welcome to Mark could
not hear to what the officer was welcome,
but he surmised it was to search the
house.
"What time did you go to bed?"
The reply was inaudible.
"You saw nothing till then?"
"No, sir."
"And everything was shut up at ten
o'clock."
"Yes, sir."
"You are good Confederates, I reckon."
"Yes, sir; my son" Mark could not
hear the rest, except the word "army."
' Well, with you permission, madam,
we'll search" The rest was lost. In
deed Mark was too terror stricken to
listen with due care. He supposed the
house would be ransacked.
In a moment his terror was turned
to a delicious sense of relief. The officer,
after calling to the men at the gate, rode
around to the negro quarters.
But there was a danger in the search
Which would follow in the cabins. Dan
iel would remember the negro girl he
had let in the night before, and would
surmise that she was the person the men
were looking for. Would Daniel betray
him? He thought not. Daniel gave no
hint, for presently Mark saw the trio
ride away to join the troop.
Laura Fain had spent a night no more
comfortable than Mark. The responsi
bility of a human life weighed upon her
heavily. At one moment she would
picture Mark's face, pale, haggard, de
spairing, as he would he dragged from
his hiding place. The next Bhe was
conscience stricken at the part she was
playing in shielding an enemy of Her
cause the cause of her brother and her
lover. She heard the dogs as Mark had
beard them on the river bank, and lay
shivering till the baying died away in
the distance. Then in the morning she
law the cavalry go by; the officer come
Up and talk with her mother, whom he
asked the negroes to call from her bed
that he might question her about the
presence of the spy. Laura got up her
self and stood at the landing, listening
breathless while they talked. When the
man rode away she muttered a fervent
"Thank God!"
As the morning brightened and it was
time to rise, her fears were less intense,
and she began to think of how she
should keep her prisoner concealed from
the rest of the household. How should
she feed him? When her maid came
BP she told her that she would take her
breakfast in her room, but surprised the
girl by the large quantity of food she
wanted brought to her. When the
breakfast came, Laura was up and
dressed. She directed the girl to set It
on table and then sent her to the stable
with a message to Daniel about her rid
ing pony. Her maid having gone, Laura
took up the breakfast and carried it to
the trap.
In another moment she was standing
on the ladder with the tray in her hand,
half her body below and half in the at-

tic, regarding a liundsome tellOw lojk-
ing very much like a gentleman in her
brother s clothes. He in turn was re
garding what he considered a very pretty
picture in the half exposed figure of a
young girl holding a tray in her hands
on which he knew full well was a break
fast he was hungry for. Then he took
the tray and laid it on the lounge.
It was the tirst time that Laura had
seen Mark dressed becomingly. This
was the man she had been instrumental
in saving, the man she was protecting,
the man she must exercise her wits to
give an opportunity to get away to a
land of safety from the halter. It was
pleasant to boo that he was good to look
upon. What a fine brow, what a reso
lute moAith! Those locks are golden and
fitted for a woman's head. The eyes
are heavenly blue. And all this beauty
holds a soul capable of plunging into
the most frightful of dangers.
And this being, bo dazzling to a young
girl scarcely twenty, was in her power.
Could she not at a word give him over to
an ignominious death? And could Bhe
not by care almost certainly insure his
freedom? He was her slave, bound to
to her far more securely than Alice, her
maid, who had been given her by her
father. She could order him to crawl
on the floor before her, and he would
have to do so. She had once seen a
woman enter a cage of a lion with only
a slender whip in her hand, and the
huge beast had obeyed her Slightest mo
tion. Mark was her lion, and she felt
inclined to give him just one touch of
the whip to see what he would do. She
stepped into the room and lot down the
trap.
"Miss Fain," Mark said, "you cannot
have any conception of the fervor of my
gratitude. You stand between me and
death not tho death of a soldier, but
of a felon. And here," pointing to the
breakfast, "you are ministering to my
wants with your own hands."
"And yet 1 told you not to come here.1'
"I did not understand you so."
Mark was hurt. His heart was full of
gratitude. He could not understand
how, after doing and risking so much
for him, she could blame him for throw
ing himself on her generosity.
"I am sorry that you regret your kind
ness," he added, with almost a tremble
in his voice.
"1 did not say that I referred it."
"But you remind me that it is not
agreeable to you."
"How can it be? You are a Yankee
a spy and on a mission to discover the
movements of our troops."
"Why, then, do you not give me up?"
She shrugged her shoulders. "Can I
turn executioner?"
"I see. I am indebted for my present
safety to the fact that you do not care
to do an unwomanly act."
"You must draw your own infer
ence." "But I should like to bo grateful.
How can I when you tell me that you
do all this for me that your white hands
may not have a stain upon them?"
"It is not necessary that you should
feel grateful."
Mark studied her face for a moment
earnestly. Then his manner changed.
"Miss Fain," ho Baid, pointing, "take
away the breakfast."
"Why so?" she asked, 6tartled.
"I will not be under any further obli
gation to one who acts from pride rather
than sweet charity. You have saved me
from the hounds and from the gallows.
Were it not for you I should now be
either about to mount the scaffold or
have passed by this time into that land
where the only human attribute I can
imagine as fitted to be there is charity.
Whether the danger is now passed from
this neighborhood I don't know, but I
am going to risk it, I am going down
stairs and out from under this roof."
"You will do no such thing!"
"I will!" And had she not placed her
self between him and the trap he would
have carried out his intention.
"Stay where you are!" she said in a
voice in which there was something
commnnding.
"By what authority do you assume to
direct mer

"True." He bowed his head.
"You understand me." She spoke with
even more authority than before.
own you. I own your life. You are
my slave in a stronger sense than my
colored girl.
"It is that ownership of human beings,
Miss Fain, coming down to you from
past generations, that has given you the
nirit trt f vrnnni.a t.vav tria nnw "
"1 tyrannize?"
There was a surprise that was not
feigned. She did not realize what she
was doing.
"Yes, never have I been so trodden
upon as by you."
There was a submission in the young
soldier's tone that satisfied the imperious
girl. She was ready to heal the cuts she '
fiad given, but sEe waited for bfm Id
speak again.
"What do you wish me to do?" hs
asked.
"Remain where you are till I regard
it safe for vou to go."
"Then you have a desire for my
Bafety?" he asked, looking up at her
quickly.
"You came here unbidden and placed
yourself in my hands. Do you think it
proper to come and go at your pleasure?"
Mark approached her, and bending
low took her hand and kissed it. There
was something in the act to remind her
of the lion after the training.
CHAPTER XV.
BOURI AND J A KEY.
"What do you think I nnqht to do wtlh
you?"
It was scarcely more than fifteen min
utes after Souri had bid Mark god
speed when old Triggs re-entered the
prison grounds, and mounting the flight
of steps leading to the second story went
into the jail. No one seemed to be
about the place. He entered bis bed
room and found his wife dozing in her
chair by the window. He asked for the
colored girl, and his wife told him that
she had not yet returned with tho medi
cine. He waited, expecting every min
ute that Bhe would come in. Had he not
noticed an absence of the groans to
which Hie supposed invalid had been
treating him all tho evening ho might
have waiteil tor S.iuri without a move
ment much longer than he did. As it
was, it occurred to him that perhaps the
prisoner might be dead.
Taking up a tallow dip he went to the
room where Mark was supposed to he
confined. A figure was lying m the
corner. The jailer went to it, and by
means of the candle saw what ho sup
posed to be the prisoner. . The face was
to the wall, and he did not at first dis
cover tho deception.
"Yank," he said, "air y' dead?"
No answer.
Ho took hold of the figure's shoulder
and shook it.
Still no reply.
Turning Souri over he at once recog
nized tho face of the "mulatto girl."
In an instant he saw through the ruse
that had been practiced. Without step
ping to interrogate her, he rushed from
the room past the sentinel at the door
and out to the guardhouse. There he
gave the alarm, and in a moment the
whole guard was in motion.
Souri hoped that the Bentinel at the
door would join in the chase, in which
event she intended to tv to J akey's room ,
get him out and attempt to escape. But
the soldier only went as far as the door
at the head of the long staircase. Then,
remembering that ho would doubtless be
punished for letting one prisoner escape,
and that there were several negroes in
the "black hole" for him to guard, he
went no farther.
In five minutes Souri heard the bark
ing of hounds without.
No word was sent to headquarters re
garding Mark's escape till the hounds
bad followed the scent to tho river and
there lost it. Then one of the guards
was sent in to report the whole affair.
Being an infantryman, ho was obliged to
walk, which took time. Cavalry was
the only arm of tho service capable of
following tho escaped man with a chance
of success, and cavalry must be ferried
across tho river or ordered from Dallas,
on the other side, ten miles above. The
latter course was chosen, and two squad
rons were directed to proceed at once,
the one to throw a chain guard across
the neck of Moccasin point, the other to
scour the river bank for a distance of
several miles below. Had there been
any cavalry nearer, Mark would have
had a very slender chance to get away.
As it was, he barely escaped one of tho
squadrons.
About noon of the day after Mark s
escape the military authorities began
to relax their efforts to recapture him,
as they had other matters of importance
to attend to, but they induced the coun
try people, by hope of a reward, to con
tinue the search within a radius of ten
or fifteen miles from Chattanooga. The
provost marshal sent for Souri and
Jakey with a view to gaining from them
whatever he might concrning Mark's
identity and his mission
