near Maeklclon, has to do with the
matter mid why he comes three days
after an eveiit-ihe Htate of your chin

Kervlees."
Our visitor had consumed his milk
and biscuits. The lljjtit had come back
to Ids eyes and the color t i his cheeks
as lie net himself with preat visor and
lucidity to explain the situation.
"I must Inform you, peiillemen. that
the Priory Is u preparatory school ol
which I am the founder ami principal
'Iluxtable's Side Lights on Horace'
may possibly recall my name to your
memories. The Priory Is without excep
tion the best Mid most select prepara
tory school In KiiKkiinl. Lord Lever
Ntoke, the Karl of P.lnckwater, Sir
Cathcart Soamen they all have intrust
ed their mms to me. P.ut 1 felt that my
school had reached its zenith when,
three weeks UK", (he I Hike of Ilolder
liesse Held Mr. James Wilder, his sec
retary, with the Intimation that young
Lord Sal tire, ten years old. his only
son and heir, was about to be com
mitted to my charge. Little did I think
that '.his would be the prelude to the
most crushing misfortune of my life.
"On Mav 1 the boy arrived, that be
ing tlie beginning of the summer term.
He whs a charming youth, and he boou
fell into our ways. I may tell you 1
trust that I am not Indiscreet, but half
conlldeiices are absurd In Hiicli a cime
that in- wan not entirely happy at
home. It in an open secret that the
duke's married life had not been u
peaceful one, and the matter had end
ed In a depuration by mutual consent,
tht' clucht'HH taking up her residence in
Hie south of 1'rnncfi. This had occurred
very shortly before, aud the boy's sym
pathies are known to have been strong
ly Willi ids mother. He moped after
lier departure from Holdernesse Hall,
and it was for this reason that the
duke desired to send li I ill to my estab
lishment. In a fortnight the boy was
quite at home witli us mid was appar
ently absolutely happy.
II. i tens Ins! seen (111 till' night of
May i:t that is. the night of last Mon
day. His room was on the second floor
anil was approached through another
larger room, I" which two boys were
Hleeping. These boys saw and heard
nothing, so that it Is certain that young
Sallire did not pass nut that way. His
win, low was open, and there is a stout
Ivy . ii I leading I" "if ground. We
could trace no font inn below, but it
Is sure that this is the only possible
exit.
"His absence was discovered at i
o'cl ick on Tuesday morning, "is bed
laid been slept in. II" had dressed him
self filllv before going off '" b's
school suit of blin k lOlon Jacket and
dark gray trousers. There were no
signs that any one had entered the
room, and it Is unite certain that any
thing In the nature of cries or a strug
gle would have been heard, since Ciiun
ler, the elder boy In the Inner room, is
a verv Ht,'ht sleeper.
"When Lord Saltlre's dlsappearauee
was discovered. I nt once called 0 roll
of the whole establishment-boys, mau
lers and servants. It was then that we
ascertained that Lord Saltlre had not
been alone In his flight. Heidegger, ti e
(Jer.nan master, was missing. His
room was on the wwond floor at the
farther end of the bulldli.K. '' ? the
same way as Lord Saltlre's. His bed
had also been nlcpt in. but he had ap
parently gone away partly r
