!Aon my knapsack. The shadows were
weeping on apace, but the sky was
irtnilerfully clear, while, low down upon

from the hedges came Buddcn rustling
and soft, unaccountable noises. Once

Si had gone, perhaps, some mile or so
this way, alternately rating and rea
sn!ng with myself, when I suddenly
fancied I heard a step behind me and
,wnng round upon my heel with ready
euca; dui tne road stretched awny
empty as far as I could see.
ft Having looked about me on all sides, 1
l-jireaeiitly went on again, yet. Immediate-

Ikceplng time with my own,' now slow,

F,",m this bit of sentimentality I was
suddenly aroused by hearing once more
the sound of a footstep upon tho roeid
behind mo Bo distinct and unmistak
able was It that 1 turned shnrp about,
and, though tho road seemed ns deserted
as ever, I walked back, looking Into every
patch of shadow, nnd even thrust Into tho
denser piirta of the hedges with my stnlti
but still I found no one. And yet I knew
that I was beln followed persistently,
step by step, but by whom, nnd for what
reason 7
A llttlo' farther on. upon one side of
the way, was a small wood or coplce, nnd
now I made towards this, keeping well
In the shadow of the hedge The trees
jv ero somewhat scattered, but the under
brush waa very dense, and amongst this
I hid myself where I could watch the
road, nnd waited. Minute after minute
elapsed, and, losing patience, I was about
to give up all hope of thus1 discovering
my unknown pursuer, when n stick
snapped sharply nearby, and, glancing
round. T thought I saw a head vanish
bthlicd the bole of nn adjacent tree,
wherefore I made quickly towards that
tree, but ere 1 reached It, a man stepped
out. A tall, loose-llmbod fellow he was,
c)ad InvrouEh clothes (that somehow had
about them a vague suggestion of ships
and th sea), and with a moth-eaten fur
cap crushed down upon his head. Ills
face glenmed pnle, and his -eyes were
deep-sunken nnd very bright: also, I
noticed that one hand waa hidden in the
pocket of his coat. But most of all, I
was struck by the extreme pallor of his
face, and thn burning brilliancy of his
eyes.
And, with the glance that showed me
all this, I recognized the Outside Pas

OOD evening, sir I" he said, In n
strange, hurried sort of way, "the
moon, you will perceive. Is very nearly at
the full tonight." And his voice imme
diately struck mo as being at odds with
hlsHclothcs.
"Why do you stand and peer at mo?"
said I, sharply.
"Peer nt you. sir?"
"Yes, from behind the tree, yonder."
As I spoke, he craned his head toward
mo and I saw his pale lips twitch sud
denly. "And why havo you dogged mo;
why have you followed mo all tho way
from Tonbrldge"
"Why, Blr, surely there Is nothing so
strange In that. I am a shadow."
"What do you mean by "a shadow 7"
"Sir, I am a shadow cast by neither
sun, nor moon, nor star, that moves on
unceasingly In dark as In light. Sir, It Is
my fate (In common with my kind) to bo
ever upon the move a stranger every
where without friends or kindred. I have
been during the last year nil over Eng
land, cast, and west, and north, nnd
south ; within the last wtyk, for Instance,
I have traveled from London to Epsom,
from Epsom to Brighton, from Brighton
back again to London, nnd from London
here. And I peer at you, sir, because I
wished to make certain what manner of
man you were before I spoke, and though
tho moon Is bright, yet your hat-brim
left your face In shade."
"Well, arc you satisfied?"
"So much so, sir, so very much so, that
I should like to talk with you, to to ask
you a question," he answered, passing
his hand a thin, white hand across his
brow, and up over the fur cap that was
so out of keeping 41th the pale face
belw,
"A question?"
"If you will bes o obliging as to listen,
Blr; let us sit awhile, for I am very
weary." And with tho words he sank
down upon the grass. After a moment
ary hesitation. I followed his example,
for my curiosity was piqued by the fel
low's strange manner: yeCwhen wo were
sitting opposite each other I saw that his
hand was still hidden in the pocket of
his coat.
"Perhaps, sir," said he. In his nervous,
hurried manner, "perhaps you would be
better able to answer my question were
I first to tell you a story an ordinary, a
very commonplace one, I fear, but with
the virtue that it Is short, apd soon told."
"My time Is entirely my own," said t,
leaning with 'my shoulders against the
tree behind me, "proceed with your
story."
'First, then, my names Strickland
John Strickland!",
Hero he paused, arjd, though his head
waa bent, I saw him watching me be
neath his brows. .
"Welir said I.
"I am e supercargo."
Again he paused expectantly, but seeing
I merely nodded, he continued:
"Upon one of my voyages our vessel
was wrecked, and, so far as I know, all
save myself and six others four seamen
and two passengers were drowned. The
passengers I speak of were an old mer
chantand his daughter, a very beauti
ful girl: her -name was Angela, sir."
Once again he paused and again he
eyul me narrowly,
"Well?" said I.
"Yell, sir," he resumed, speaking in a
low, repressed voice, "we seven, after
'two miserable days in a drifting boat.
reached an Island, where that same night
thn old merchant died. Sir, tho sailors
wero wild, rough men; the Island waa a
desolate one from whence there was
seemingly no chance of escape, It lying
out of the usual track of ships, and this
girl was, as I have sa(d, very beautiful.
Under1 such conditions her fate' would
have been Unspeakable degradation, and
probably death; but, sir, I fought and
bled for her. not once but many times,
and eventually I killed one of them with
my sheath-knlfe, and I remember to this
hour how his blood gushed over my hands
and arms and sickened me. After that
they waited hourly to avenge his death,
and get me out of their way once and for
all, but I had my long knife and they
but such rude weapons as they could de
vise. Day after day and night after night
I watched for an opportunity to escape
with the boat, until at last, one day while
they were all three gqqe Inland, not
dreaming of any such attempt, for the
sea was very dangerous and high.' with
the girl's help I managed to launch the
boat, and so stood out to sea, And I re
member those three sailors came run
ning with great shouts and cries, and
flung themselves down upon the beach
and crawled upon their knees, proving
to be taken off along with us and Peg
ging ua not to leave them to perish. After
three days' buffeting at the mercy of the
etas we were picked.up by a brig bound
for Portsmouth, and six months later
were In England Sir, It Is impossible
for a man to have lived beside a beauti
ful woman day by day, to have fought
for and suffered with her, not to love
her also, Thus, seeing her friendless and
penniless, I wooed and won her to wife
We came to London, and for a year pur
life was perfect, until, through stress of
circumstances, I was forced to take an
otcr position aboard ship. Well, sir, I
bade farewell to my wife and we set sail.
The voyage, which was te have lasted
but three months, was lengthened out
through ene mU1venture after another,
0 that It was a year before I saw roy
wife again. At first I naMced llttd differ,

gradually I came to see tfcat she jwas, un

"Gone?"

"And sho left no trace no letter ?"
"No, she left no letter, sir. but I did
find something a something that had
rolled lilto a corner of the room."
"And what was that?"
"This, sir!" As ho spoke, his burning
eyes ncyer leaMng tnlne, hehruat a
hand Into his boiom his left hand, for
his right was where It hhd been all along,
hidden In his pocket-and held out to me
a gold seal such as gentlemen wear at
tneir ions.
"Ah"' I exclaimed. I
"Tako It!" said the man, thrusting It
toward me. "look at It!" Obediently I
took the trinket from him, and, examin
ing it as well as I might, saw that a.
letter waa engraved upon It. ona of those
ornamental Initials' surrounded by rococo
Bcrolls and flourishes.
"What letter does It bear?" asked the
man In a strangled voice.
"It looks very like tho letter 'Y, " I
answered.
"The letter "Y'l" cried the man, and
then, with n gesture sudden nnd tierce,
ho snatched tha seal from me, and.
thrumlng- it back Into his bosom, laughed
strangely.
''Why do you laugh?" said I.
"To be sure." said he harshly, "tho
light might be better, and yet well! my
story Is nearly done. I lived on In my
loneiy house from day to day and month
to month, hoping and waiting for her
to come back to me. And one day sho
did come back to me Just about this
hour it was, sir, and on Just such an
other evening; and that same night ahe
died."
"Good God I" I exclaimed. "Poor fel
lowl" And. leaning forward, 1 laid my
hand upon his knee, but, at my touch,
he drew back quickly, nnd with a look bo
evil, that I was Btartled.
"Hands off!" said he, and so hat star
ing at me with his smoldering eyes.
"Are you mad?" said I, and sprang to
my feet.
"Not yet," he answered, and once again
ho passed his hand up, and over his face
and brow j "no, not yot, sir." Here ho
rose, and stood facing me, nnd I noticed
that one hand was still hidden In his
pocket, and, thereafter, while I listened
(o him, I kept my eyes directed thither.
"That night before she dlod, sir," he
continued, "she told me the name of the
man who had destroyed her, and killed
my souU and I have been searching for
him ever since cast, and west, and
north, and south. Now, sir, here Is my
question: If I should ever meet that
man face to face, as I now sec you,
should I not be Justified In killing him?"
For a moment I stood with bent head,
yet conscious all tho while of the burn
ing eyes that scanned my face, then:
"Yes," said I. .
Tho man stood utterly still, his mouth
opened as If he would have spoken, but
no word came. All at once he turned
about, nnd walked unsteadily live or six
paces. Now, as I looked, I saw him sud
denly draw his hand from his pocket,
then, as he wheeled, I knew, and hurled
myself face downward as the pistol
Hashed.
"Madman!" I cried, and next moment
was on my feet; but, with a sound that
was neither a groan nor "a scream, and
yet something of both, he leapt Into the
thickest port of tho underbrush, and
made off. And standing there, dazed by
tho suddenness of It all, I heard the
snapping of twigs grow fainter and
fainter as he crashed through ln head
long flight.

appeared to be a small tavern yard, for
on either -hand was a row of tumble
down stables and barns, while before me
was a low, rambling structure which I
Judged wos the tavern Itself. I waa yet
standing looking about me when a man
Issued from the stables upon my right,
bearing a hammer In one hand and a
lanthorn In the other. t
"Hallo!" said he, staring at me.
"Hallo," said I, staring at him.
"You don't chance to 'ave a axle-bolt
about you, I suppose?" '
"No," said I.
"Humph!" he grunted, and, lowering
hs lanthorn, began searching among the
cobblestones.
"Is this It?" I Inquired, picking- up a
rusty Bcrew-bolt at my feet.
"Ah!" said he, taking it from me with
a. nod, "know'd I dropped It 'ere some
'eres. Ye see," he went on, "couldn't
get another round 'ero tonight, and that
cussed axle's got to be In place to
morra." "Yes?" said I.
"Ah!" nodded the man, "Chaise come
In '.ere 'arf an hour ago wl' two gentle
men and n lady, In tho Lord's own 'urry
too. 'Mend this axle, me man,' says
ono on 'cm a top-sawyer be the looks

would ha' been mighty bad for me, for
thla 'ere gentleman's a flre-and-fury out-and-outer,
and no error."
"Can I have a bed here, do you think?"
I Inquired,
"Ah," said he. "I think you can."
"For how much, do ou suppose?"
"To you sixpence,"
"Why, that seems reasonable," said I,
"It are," nodded the man, "And a fine
feather bed, .tool But then, Lord, ono
good turn deserves another"
"Meaning?"
This 'ere bolt."
"Are you the landlord, then?"
"I be; and If you feel Inclined for a
mug 6" good ale say the word."
"Most willingly," said 1: "but what of
"the axle?"
"Plenty o' time for th' axle." nodded
the landlord, and, setting down his ham.
mer upon a bench hard by, he led the
way Into the tap. The ale was very
.strong and good. Indeed this lovely
county of Kent s Justly famous for
such. Finding myself very hungry, the
landlord forthwith produced a mighty
round of beef, upon which we both fell
to and ate with a will. Which done, I
pulled out my negro-head plpo, and the
landlord fetching himself another, we
sat, a while smoking. And presently,
learntne I was from Londdn, he began
plying me with all manner of questions
concerning the' great city, of which It
seemed he could not hear enough, and
I, to describe Its wonders as well as I
might. At length, bethtnkler him. of his
axle, he rose with a sigh. Upon my re
questing to be shown my room he lighted
a candle and led the way up a some,
