A traveler on horseback w as making
his way through the enow, vainly en­
deavoring to keep hla cloak wrapped
About him. tlie wind struggling equally
to tear It from him. H e waa looking
about him for a place of ahelter, for
the days were Bhort and the sun had
Just set at h alf past 4 o’clock In the
afternoon.
Coming to an Imposing
house standing In large grounds far
back from the road, he turned his
horse's head between two pillars and
entered. H a had traversed bat half
the distance to the house when the
front door opened and a man stepped
out whose rapier, feathered hat and
broad lace collar betokened a cavalier.
Descending the steps, he quickly came
uu between the great trees that lined
the way as I f bent on some errand of
Importance.
As be approached the
traveler he scarcely seemed to notice
him. --
T h e la tte r drew rein and said:
“A hai»py
Year to yon, sir."
The man stopped, glared, h alf drew
hla rapier, replaced It and waa passing
on when the stranger added.
“Can I get ahelter In yonder botmeT”
“There Is no one there except a w o ­
man, and she has not been used to
w aiting even on heraelf.”
“Where are the men?”
“One of them la before yon; the other
—well, the other was one too many, gad
he has gone away."
“Yon speak in riddles, air. Do you
think the woman, or rather the lady,
w ill be obliged to remain the night
alone?"
“ Mayhap ahe wtlL"
"Possibly then she may be glad of
the protection even o f a stranger.”
“You bad best go on and find oat for
yon reelf.”
H e showed no disposition to furthei
eouvarse and passed on, the stranger
continuing his Journey toward the
house. On reaching the porch he threw
the reins on his horse's neck, and tn an
other moment a loud rap on the knock­
er Indicated hla presence. No one re­
plied to hla summons, and he knocked
again and again, still with no reply.
H e turned and looked a t the flying
snow, shivered and, turning again,
tried the door. I t waa unfastened. Bln
tering. he passed through a broad hall
and was about to go up the winding
staircase when In one of the room, bs
saw a woman sitting a t a table, her
head resting In her hands, her elbows
on the table Surely the man she had
met w g . right. Bhe was a lady and
one endowed w ith a refined beauty.
Bhe looked straight before her and
seemed no more Interested In the stran­
ger than the other had been.
“ Madam,“ he said.
She did not turn her eyes, and he
tried again to secure bar attantton.
“Madam, I crave your pardon fo r en­
tering unannounced
I am a weary
traveler and would gladly rest for the
night under your roof. I met a gentle­
man without who told me you were
alone. M ay I not serve as a protector?”
The woman now for the first time no­
ticed him. Turning her eyes slowly
upon him, she said
“You are welcome to stay here, but
not as my protector. I shall need no
protector.”
Whether she forgot his presence or
not. nite paid no further attention to
him. H e began to think that he bed
stumbled on a haunted house; that the
man he had met and thia woman were
not fleeh and blood, but the wraiths of
departed occupants of what waa now a
deserted bouse. However, having re­
ceived permission to remain overnight,
be went out and stabled his horse, glv
tog him a feed, then, returning to the
bouse, went to the kitchen, where ha
found sufficient cooked food to furnish
him a supper. Having eaten, be wsat
again to the room where the lady had
been sitting She was not there.
A fire was ready on the hearth, end,
taking the flint from the mantel, the
traveler p at sparks to I t then lighted a
lamp and aat down at the table. There
were books on I t and ba triad to read.
