The outlaw sank his club. "The Socman's brother!" he gasped. "Now, by the keys of refer! I had rather that hand withered and tongue was palsied ere I had strui k or miscalled yt.u. If you are the Socman's brother you are one of the right side, I war rant, for all your clerkly dress." "His brother I am." replied Alleyne. "Hut even If I were not. Is that reason why you should molest me on the king's ground?" "1 give not the pip of an apple for king or for noble," cried the serf passionately. "Ill have I hud from them, and ill 1 shall repay them. 1 am a pood friend to my friends, and, by the. Virgin, an evil focman to my foes." "And therefore the worst of focman to thyself," said Alleyne. "l'ut I pray you. since you seem to know him, to point out to me the shortest path to my brother's house." lie was following the track, his mis givings Increasing with every step which took him nearer to that home which he hnd never seen, when of ti sudden the trees began to thin and the sward to spread out into a broad green lew, where five cows lay in the sun shine and droves of black swine wan dered unchecked. A stream swirled down th' clearing, with a rude across it, and on the other sid? was a second field sloping up to a long, low lying wooden house, with thatched roof and open squares for windows. Al leyne gazed across at it with flushed cheeks and sparkling eyes for this, he knew, must be the home of his fathers. Alleyne was roused, however, from his pleasant revery by the sound of voices, and two people emerged from the forest some little way to his right and moved across the field In the di rection of the bridge. The one was a man with yellow flowing lwtrd and very long hair of the same tint droop ing over his shoulders. By his side walked a woman, tall and slight and dark, with lithe graceful figure and clear-cut, composed features. Her Jet- golden hair, his fierce blue eyes, and his large, well-marked features, he was the most comely man whom Al It yno had ever seen; and yet there was something so sinister and so fell In his expression that child or beast might well have shrunk from him. Ills brows were drawn, his check flushed, and there was a mad sparkle in his eyes which spoke of a wild, untamable nature. "Young fool!" he cried, holding the weman still to his side, though every line of her shrinking figure spoke lier abhorrence. I reue you to go on your way. lest worse befall you. This little wench has come with me. and with me she shall bide." Liar!" cried the woman: and. stoop ing her head, she suddenly bit fiercely Into the broad brown hand which held her. He whipped It back with an oath, while she tore herself free and slipped behind Alleyne, cowering up against him. "Stand off my land!" the man said fiercely, heedless of the blood which trickled freely from his fingers. 'What have you to do here? r" your dress you should be one of those cursed clerks Who overrun the land like vile rats, taking and prying Into other men's concerns, too caitiff to fight and too lay tcr work." "Is this your land, then?" gasped Alleyne. "Would you dispute It. dog? Would you wish by trick or quibble to Juggle me out of these last acres? Know, base-born knave, that you have dared this day to stand In the path of one whose race have been the advisers of Kings and the leaders of hosts, ere ever brown forest this vile crew of Norman robber came centre of this . into the land, or such half-blood bridge flung i hounds as you were let loose to preach that the thief should have his booty and the honest man should sin if he strove to win back his own."

"That I am: and the son of Kdrie. the Six-man. of the pure blood of God frey the thane, by the only daughter of the house of Alurlc, whose fore fathers held the white-horse banner at the fatal fight where our shield was lroken and our sword shivered. My f"lk held this land from Pramshaw Wood to the Rlngwood road. Hecone, I say. and meddle not with my affair'" "If you leave me now." whispered the woman, "shame forever upon your manhood!" "Surely, sir," said Alleyne. speaking in as persuaslre and soothing a way as he could, "If ytur birth Is gentle. house, blowing the while upon a shrill whistle. 'Vomer' gasped the woman. "Fly, friend, ere he come hack." They ran together to the cove- of the woods. As they gained the edge of the brushwood, Alleyne, looking buck, saw his brother come running out of the house again, with the sun gleaming upon his hair and his heard. He held something which flashed In his il lit hand, and he stopped to unlooso the black hound. This way!" the woman whispered. In a low eager voice. "Through the bushes to that forked ash.

Yet, grave as were bif thoughts, they would still turn to wonder as he looked at the twinkling feet of his guide and saw her lithe figure bend this way and that, dipping under tMuighs, springing over stones, with a lightness and case which made It no small task for him to keep up with her. At last, when he was al most out of breath, she suddenly threw herself down upon a mossy bank. letween two holly-bushes, and looked ruefully at her own dripping feet and bedraggled skirt. lleyne. still standing In the stream, glanced down at the graceful plnk- and-whlte figure, the curve of raven- black hair, and the proud, sensitive face, which looked upfrankly and contl- dt nt ty nt his own.

Alas ! thai 1 black hair was gathered back undr a light pink coif, her h'-ati poised proudly upon her neck, and her step long and si ringy, like that of some wild tireless woodland creature. AUeyne stood in the shadow of an oak staring at ln-r with parted lips, for this woman seemed to him to be the most beauti ful and graceful creature that mind could conceive of. Such had he imag ined the angels, but here there was something human, which sent a tingle and thrill through hi.s nerves .such as no dream of radiant and stainless spirit had ever yet been able to conjure up. The iivu walked swiftly across the mradow to tht; narrow bridge, he in fn m and she a pace r two behind. Then they paused, and stood fur a few minutes face to face, talking earnestly. Alleyne had read and heard of love arid of lovers. Such were these, doubtless this) golden-bearded loan and the fair damsel with the cold proud face. Why else should they wander together in the woods, or be so lost in talk by rustic streams? And yet as he watched, uncertain whether to advance from the cover or to choose some other path to the house, he soon came to doubt the truth of his con jecture. Th" man stood, tall and square, blocking the entrance to the bridge, and throwing out his hands as he spoke in a wild, eager fashion, while the deep tones of his stormy voice rose at times into accents of menace and of anger. She stood fear lessly in front of him. but twice she threw a swift questioning glance over her shoulder, as of one who is in search of aid. So moved was the young clerk by these mute appeals, that be came forth from the trees and crossed the- meadow, uncertain what to do, and yet loath to hold back from one who might need his aid. So intent were they upon each other that neither took note of his approach; until, when he was close upon them, the man threw his arm roughly round the damsel's waist and drew her toward him, she Htiainirig her lithe Hupple figure away and striking fiercely at him. The maid, however, had but little chance against her assailant, who, laughing loudly, caught her wrist in one hand while he drew her toward him with the ether. "The best rose has ever the longest thorns," said he. "Quiet, little one, or you may do yourself a hurt! Must pay Saxon toll on Saxon land, my proud Maude, for all your airs and graces." "You boor!" she hissed. "You base, underbred clod! Is this your care and your hospitality I would rather wed a branded serf from my father's fields. Ix-ave go, I say Ah, good youth, Heaven has sent you. Make him loose me! liy the honor of your mother, I pray you to stand by rne and to make this knave loose me. "Stand by you I will, and that blithely," said AUeyne. "Surely, Mir, you chould take shame to hold the damsel against her will." The man turned a face upon him which was lion-like In Its strength and in Its wrath. With his tangle or there is the more reason that your manners should be gentle too. I arn well persuaded that you did but jest with this lady, and that you will now permit her to leave your land either alone or with me as a guide, if she should need one, through the wood. As to birth, it does not become me to boast, and there is sooth in what you say as to the unworthiness of clerks, but it is none the less true that 1 am as well born as you." "Dog!" cried the furious Socman, "there is no man in the south who can sa as much. "Yet can I," said Alleyne, smiling; ' for indeed I also arn the son of Kdric the Socman, of the pure blood of iod frey the thane, by the only daughter of Aluric of Urockenhurst. Surely, dear brother," he continued, holding out his hand, "you have a warmer greeting than this for me. There are but two boughs left upon this old Saxon trunk." His elder brother dashed his hand aside with an oath, while an expression of malignant hatred passed over hi.s passion-drawn features. "You are the young cub of Beaulieu, then?" said he. "I might have known it by the sleek fice and slavish manner, too monk ridden and craven In spirit to answer back a rough word. Thy father, shaveling, with all his faults, had a man's heart; and there were few who could look him In the' eyes on the day of his anger. liut you! Look there. rat. on yonder field where the cows graze, and on that other beyond, and i n the orchard ham by the cnuron. Ijo you know that all these were squeezed out of your dying father by gieedy priests, to pay for your up bringing In the cloisters! I, the Soc man, am shorn of my lands that you may snivel Latin and eat bread for which you never yet did a hand's turn. Knave, my dogs shall In- set upon you: but meanwhile, stand out of my path, and stop me at your peril!" As he spoke he rushed forward, and, throwing the lad to one side, caught the woman's wrist. Alleyne, however, as active as a young deer-hound, pprang to her aid and seized her by the other arm, raising his Iron-shod staff as he did so. "You may say what you will to me," he Baid between his clenched teeth "it may be no better than I deserve; but, brother or no, I swear by mv hopes of salvation that I will break your arm if you do not leave hold of the maid." There wuh a ring In his voice and a flash in his eyes which promised that the blow would follow quick at the heels of the word. For a moment the blood of the long line of hot-headed thanes was too strong for the soft whisperings of the doctrine of meek ness and mercy. He was conscious of a fierce wild thrill through his nerves and a throb of mad gladness at his heart, as bis real human self burst for an Instant the bonds of custom and of teaching which had held it so long. The Socman sprang back, looklni? to lift and to right for some stick or stone which .might serve him for weapon; hut finding none, he turned and run at the top ol tiia speed for the to take to my heart. should still be so weak." "Weak!" she exclaimed, raising her black eyebrows. "I do not think that even my father himself, who is a hard Judge of manhood, would call you that. Uut it is, as you may think, sir, a very pleasant thing for mo to hear that you are grieved at what you have done, and I can but rede that we should go back together, and you should make your peace with the Socman by ha.id ing back your prisoner. It is a sad thing that ho small a thing as a woman should come between two who are of one blood." Simple Alleyne opened his eyes at this little spurt of feminine bitterness. "Nay, lady," said he. "that were worst of all. What man would be so caitiff and thrall as to fail you at your need? I have turned my brother against rne. and now, alas! 1 appear to have given you offence alyo with my clumsy tongue, liut. Indeed, lady, 1 arn torn both ways, and can scarce grasp in rny mind what it Is that has befallen." "Nor can I marvel at that," said she, with a little tinkling laugh. "You came in as the knight does in the jongleur's romances, between dragon and damsel, with small time for the asking of questions. Come," she went en, springing to her reet, ami smooth ing down her rumpled frock, "let us walk through the shaw together, and wc may come upon Uertrand w ith the horses. If poor Troubadour had not cast a shoe, we should not have had this trouble. Nay, I must have your arm. 'You have no wish, then, to hear my story?" said she at last. Nay, said he eagerly, I would fain hear It." 'You have a right to know it, If you have lost a brother's favor through It. This man has been a suitor for my hand, less as I think for my own sweet sake than because he hath ambition. and had It on his mind that he might Improve his fortunes by dipping into my fathers strong-nox t nougn rne virgin knows that he would have found little enough therein. 'But. to be brief over the matter, my father would have none of his woo ing, nor In sooth would I. On that he swore a vow against us, anil as ne is known to be a perilous man, with many outlaws and others at his back, rny father forbade that I should hawk or hunt In any part of the wood to the north of Chrlstchunh road. As It chanced, however, this morning my little falcon was loosed at a Htrorig- winged heron, and page Tlertrand and I rode on, with no thoughts but for the sport, until we found ourselves In Mln stead woods. Small harm then, but that my horse Troubadour trod with a tender foot upon a sharp stick, rear ing and throwing me to the ground. Then away ran Troubadour, for belike I spurred him In falling, and Uertrand lode after him as hard as hoofs could bear him. When I rose there was the Socman himself by my Hide, with the news that I was on his land, but with so many courteous woreis nesicicH. anci such gallant bearing, that he prevailed upon me to come to his house for rueiier, mere lo wail until the page's i. turn, lty the grace of the Virgin and the help of my patron St. Magda l li, I stopped short ere I reached his door, though, as you saw, he strove to hale me up to It." "Hut your father?" "Not one word shall I tell him. You do not know him; but I can tell you he Is not a man to disobey as 1 have disobeyed him. He would avenge me. It Is true, but It Is not to him that 1 shall look for vengeance. Some day. p ri hance, in Joust or In tourney. mi. me Kingnt may wish to wear my colors, unci then I shall tell him that if he does indeed crave my favor there Is wrong unredressed, and the wronger the Socman of Mlnstead. So my knight shall llud it venture such as bold knights love, and my debt shall be paid, and my father none the wiser, and one rogue the less in the World." Then down the glade there came a little green-dad page with laughing yes. and long curls floating behind aim. lie sat perched on a high buy horse, and held on to the bridle of ,i si inted black palfrey, the hides of both glistening from a long run. "I have sought you everywhere, dear Lady Maude." said he, In a piping voice, springing down from his horse and holding the stirrup. "Troubadour galloped as far as llolmhlll ere I i i.uld catch him. I trust that you have had li" hurt or south?" He shot a questioning glance at Alleyne as he spoke. "No, Uertrand." said she, "thanks to this courteous stranger. And now, sir," she continued, springing Into her saddle, "it ts not lit that I should have you without a word more. Vou have acted this day as becomes a true knight.

"And where In Chrlstchurch " "At the castle which Is held by the nrave Knignt, Mr .Nigel i.orlng, eon- stable to the Karl of Salisbury." hi nis surprise sne nursi out a- laughing, and spurring her palfrey. dashed off down the glade, with her page riding behind her. Not one word did she say, but as she vanished amid the trees she half turned In her saddle and waved a last greeting. Long time he stood, half hoping that she might again come back to him; but the thud of the hoofs had died away, and there was no sound In all the woods but the gentle rustle and dropping of the leaves. At last he turned away and made his way back lo the highroad -another person from the light-hearted boy who had left It a short three hours before.
