which was fully lighted oy the brmi
lamp swinging from the roof. How long
he had been here he was unable to guess;
but the scenes through which he had
passed relative to the rescue o f Hose
flashed so instantly and vividly spun
his recollection as to persuade him that
no very great portion o f time had elapsed
since their occurrence. Tbe flight, the
coneealymnt o f Hose, the moment o f cap
ture—all these were before him.
He
wondered only that the* brigands, enraged
as they were at the injury to their com
rade, had not torn him limb from limb.
His captors had taken care to secure
him beyond the possibility of escape; for
they had fettered him, hand and foot,
and to these fetters was attached a heavy
chain, the other end of which was fast
ened to a huge ring in the wall. He was
in captivity, but that captivity was sweet,
since he had, as he hoped, ensured the
safety o f Hose. Yet he thought o f her
with the deepest anxiety, still. He cal
culated the chances of her finding the
way from the forest, or, perhaps, she had
fainted in that narrow place o f refuge,
and remained insensible amid the nox
ious damps of night, and with siimp rep
tiles and poisonous insects all about her!
But what would noi be preferable to the
prison from which she had escaped?
T o Jacques his thoughts turned.
As
a matter of course he also must have
been brought back, and he. too must be
in a cell, chained also. Wheu would u
chance o f escape come to either o f them ?
It was a matter of ignorance to him,
whether Gasparde had returned with the
men who had captured him. He was iu
the power of murderers now, and there
was no reason for them to be more len
ient to him than to any other who might
excite iu them a thirst for vengeunce.
Yet, with the probability o f the escape of
Hose, he suffered no apprehensions to dis
quiet him.
