CHAPTER
WHIPPING A SCOUNDREL
MEANWHILE Sir Richard, reach-
ing the iun, made his way to
a hind door, a small, discreet door
la shadowy and unexpected angle,
that seemed to hide coyly from all
chance observation. Taking a key
Irom his pocket, he opened this
door and stepped Into a narrow
passage, closed the door. Half
way along tills passage he paused
and slid aside a certain panel, dis
covering a dim flight of stairs, up
which he mounted, the panel clos
ing behind him, and so came Into
a small, odd-shaped 'chamber. Al
though this strange room possessed
four doors, It had not so much as a
single window, Upon oak table lay
"Lord. sir. tool I n.ust oe, Dcirig
In love wT lass as lovetti not poor
.Nick. But dog bite me. s:r, It any
man shall treat my Pen anyways

"And A-hy are ye here tonltbt,

fill luck, elr. My mare, good
lass, cast a shoe, or 1 should ha'
made pretty work on 't wl' so. much
grand company on the road, love
sick fools aud country gentry."
"Nicholas,- mind your neck!
You'll leave these frolirksdme gen
try to me," said Sir Itichard and
strode from the room.
Thus Mr. Julian Guyfford was
smiling so amiably at his two com
panions when the door swung open
aud Sir Richard entered.
"Wha what who the devil?"
queried Lord Urocklehurst. Julian
Guyfford hailed cheerily:
"Greetings. Dick! 'TIs my joy to
present Lord Urocklehurst Cap
tain Despard. Gentlemen, my es
teomed cousin, Sir Itkhard Guyf
foul." The Viscount bowed, the captain
merely nodded. Sir Richard did
neither, nor did his somber gaze
leave his consln's handsome face,
conscious of which scrutiny Juliau s
smile faded.
"Well what d ye want here?"
"You"
Julian, shrieking and groaning, writhed under Richard vicious blows.

several weeks with his sister, Mrs.

a horseman's cloak, very dusty, a
pair of long-barreled pistols and a
heavy rldlng-whlp. Deholdlng these
articles. Sir Richard laid his hand
upon the latch of one door wben
from somewhere nearby rose a
querulous, high-pitched voice:
"No. 1 refuse 1 refuse. 1 say!"
Ensued now the smooth, soft
murmur of another voice, whereat
Sir Ricbard frowned and, crossing
to a particular corner, lifted a sec
tion of the moulding, this disclosing
a "Judas" two peepholes whereby
one might look Into the neighbour
ing room.
At a table heavily laden with bot
tles, mostly empty, sat a gorgeous
young gentleman, bis face contort
ed by rageful despair. Behind him
sat an older man, keen-eyed, high
nosed. Intent; and, fronting these,
stood a tall, elegantly slim, smiling
creature, who seemed to dominate
tbe situation. His face, tnodishly
pale, was almost hidden In the
bloude curls of his lofty wig.
Though bis lips smiled, his sleepy
eyes were a menace.
"My dear Urocklehurst," he mur
mured, "1 shall be happy to afford
you another week, and then "
"But ye know ye must know
't would mean my ruination, Guyf
ford!" and In the speaker's hag
gard eyes was sudden, glaring hate.
"My lord, you exaggerate the
fact."
"It's true 'Us too dev'llsh true!"
cried hlj lordship. "Don't no,
don't push me too far, Guyfford."
Sir Richard closed tbe Judas and,
taking up the rldiug-whlp, viewed It
with thoughtful frown. Then a
door opened suddenly and there en
tered a fine, handsome girl who
wept; but, espying Sir Ricbard, she
checked her sobs.
"Why, Penelope, lass, what's
amiss?"
" 'TIs Nick, sir; t come to hide
his pistols."
"Nick? Are the officers on his
heels again, or Is be only drunk?"
"Ob, worse. Sir Richard; ho be
Jealous! And It be all because
o' the London gentlemen they
they-were for kissing mc, sir. I
told father, and father told Nick,
and Nick do swear io be shootln'
some o' the gentlemen."
"Where Is Nick?"
"In the kitchen, sir, with father
no, he be acoming up here for
his pistols sure! I can hear him."
As she spoke In came a tall, well
featured man, a comely fellow, from
neat wig to dusty, spurred boots,
who might have been anything
rather than tbe notorious character
and dreaded night-rider he was.
"Oho is't you, sir?" he ex
claimed. "Myself!" aodded Sir Richard.
"And leave your pistols alone,
Black Nick. Don't be a fool."

"Ay, you bring me my letter, 1

"What o' that?"
"So you'll mask your damnable
villainy under my name, will ye?"
"Villainy, d'ye say you? Why,
your name Is so devilish smirched
and blown upon that one peccadillo
more or less can . pass unnoted.
. . But enough o' this!"
"I'm but beginning, cousin Julian.
These so dear friends o' yours shall
learu the loathly villain you are
and see ye flogged."
With the word he leaped to ac
tion. . . . Vicious blows a cry,
and Julian Guyfford was squirming
beneath bis cousin's dusty riding
boot. . . .
The Viscount gasped, floundering
to ujstcady legs, but Captain Des
pard pulled him down again, whis
pering slbllanlly:
"A way out for us, Will: wait,
man, wait let be!" And then was
the vicious hiss of flailing whip
lash, a passionate cry repeated
again, again and yet again. . .
Tho whip broke at last, and Sir
Richard, panting a little, let It fall
and nodded down at the awful
shape writhing beneath his fool.
"Cousin Julian, tonight I was
named a 'blackmailer' of women!
From tonight I refuse to father any
more sins o' yours And now I'll
have these!" So saying, he thrust
band Into Julian's breast and,
snatching thence the packet of let
ters, dropped them Into iris own
coat-pocket.
"You you shall rot In Newgate
for this!" gasped Julian.
Sir Richard turned towards tbe
door, but In that moment Jullun
was up, a small pistol In his hand,
but even as he leveled It Captain
Despard caught bis wrist, turning
tho pistol against Julian's other
arm; a shattering explo.slun and,
reeling to the table, Julian leaned
there, left arm a dangle, glaring at
Sir Richard through a swirl of
smoke.'
"What, cousin, Is It murder,
then?" said Sir Richard, smiling
Into that haggard, passion-distorted
face. "Why, very Well, seek me
when you are more able." Turning,
to be gone, he saw the place
a throng with people.
Then Julian laughed oddly and.
still supported by the table, raised
his left arm and showed a hand red
and dripping.
"My arm, George," said he; "a
I few more Inches and 'twould ha'
been my heart."
