that Harvard Is not likely to make the

liciu.
Too much praise cannot bo given to
brlggs for his kicking. Sot only did he
get wonderful distance, but he was good
whether ho kicked with or against the
wind. Better than the distance he gained
was his splendid judgment In placing
kick. Time after time he kicked to one
clde or the other of the field, so that the
ball either rolled for lone distances or '
went out of bounds, making It Impossi
ble for Dartmouth backs to return the
kicks. Some of his effectiveness was
doubtless duo to the poor manner In
which Dartmouth coveted his kicks, but
Drlggs Is right now one of tho best In
tho business. Without qncstlon Prince
ton gave a marvelous exhibition of the
W. worth of the kicking game as a means
J of attack,
a TIBBOTT'S GREAT WORK.
S Another clement In Princeton's strength
- Wrtta Tlhh.il n f'mitHhiiMnn frnm Cla-
J. mantown Academy. Tibbptt tried threo
'it drop-kicks, two of which succeeded from
!' the, and 45 yard lines. Tho third was
from the 40-yard mark. But Tlbbott dem
onstrated, as he haH done all season, that
he Is dangerous any n here within the 45
yard mark. In addition to Tlbbott,
Princeton has Law, a substitute fullback,
who Is sure with kicks at any point be
yond mldficld.
Princeton Is prepared to play the kicking
game In all Its variations. A word more
about Tlbbott. He Is. about the best open
field runner In tho East, whether In return
kicks or on end runs. When he made his
Jfi 40-yard run for a touchdown In the third
p period he dodged and sidestepped so
In' were all around him not one could lay
J' hands on him.
In Hlghley and Brown Princeton has
two splendid ends. They handle forward
li passes well, they are fast -under kicks.
tickling Is well-nigh perfect. That Is
about all any coach could ask of a rmlr
i of ends.
& But Princeton has weaknesses which
even Dartmouth disclosed, and unless they
re corrected they may be fatal In the
Harvard game. The Tigers have not a de
pendable rushing- attack, Tho only sus
tained rushing during tho game was done
by Dartmouth. Princeton's usual method
of advancing tho ball on line play was
fpr Quartet back Gllck to whirl through
centre from his position, Thero can be no
momentum to such, a play as this, and it
rarely gained more than two or three
yards. Drlggs and Shea were frequently
shot off tacklo; but In splto of Dart
mouth's poor end play thoy could not
gain consistently.
OFFENSE LACKED PU.VCH.

WANT-TO-BE GOLFERS
WILL BE FIRST FLOCK
ON NEW LOCAL LINKS
Pills Will Fly in Every Direc
tion When Public Cobb's
tCreek Course Gets Under
Way Next Springtime
The first flock of golfers that will graze
on the new public links at Cobb'B Creek
when they opon In the spring time will bo
composed without question of that great
clan of mortals that, once upon n time
In a nearly forgotten era, has had a
golf club In tts.hand to take, perhaps, a
few shots by way of experiment into
the gloaming. There will be n sprinkling
of those that wish they could play, of
those that have n friend that ence played
and said It was a swell Rame. and, lastly,
there will be a sprinkling of thoso that
onco read something about golf and
would wish to prove that the writer was
misinformed.
The really elect In the golfing world
have their own links and are not expected
to play on the pub'Io links, except per
haps to see what they are like. There
tore It Is felt that the course in Its In
fancy will be showered with balls sizzling
at all angles, like an armful of skyrockets
accidentally all going off at once. For
golfers In the first stage of the dlseise
find It best' to swing on tho globule with
nbandon and let direction attend to Itself.
There Is no doubt In the minds or any
of the experts that have seen the course
that It Is going to.be very fine. It will
exceed anything In the East, and many
claim thero Is not a public course In the
country that will touch It as a wonder
fully planned course and as a test of golf.
Then up comes tho query whether the
course Is not going to bo too hard for the
great hoi polio! that will want to use It.
There Is no doubt but that It will be very
hard. To mako a score on It the player
will have to play golf every shot. There
is no chance for n lapse from the tee to
the green, or, rather. Into the hole, for
there are merry undulations on every
grepn which will cold-shoulder a careless
putt with scornful sneer even further
away than It was In the first place. There
Is plenty of rough for losing a ball if tho
player doesn't keep his eye on It. Thete
are Iota of shots called for that will de
mand a shot down the alley an 3 nothing
else There are water holes and blind
holes.
BuF the duffer has no ground for com
plaint. Ho cried out as a youth when he
got n licking, but It was good for his
character. He may cry out when he has
to make a hard shot nt Cobb's Creek, but
it will be o. wonderful stimulus to his
game. He has all outdoors to shoot Into.
If he enn't mako tho shots he would have
the same trouble on any course. The rough
In front of tees Is only 100 yards, as
against ISC yards on most courses. It will
be kept very short, being simply rougher
grass thati on the fairway. So far there
are few bunkers or traps and the player
will have crnly the natural difficulties of
the country to overcome. The committee
has done Its work well and has laid out
the course very wUely,

AND OTHER NEWS OF
PENN'S SHOWING AGAINST PITT
VINDICATES COACHING SYSTEM
Red and Blue Plays Wonderful Defensive Game in Hold
ing Westerners to Low Score Tutors Overcome
Obstacles Team Looks Better
By ROBERT
Tho Penn coaching system which was
Inaugurated this year has (shown results
at last. After slipping up several times
In tho early season Barnes notably
against Penn State the team came back
asalnst the University of Pittsburgh Sat
urday and put up a battle that reminded
one of the days when Mike Murphy In
stilled that good old flghtlnc spirit Into
tho players. True, Penn was defeated,
but who said she would win? Everybody
was predicting an enormous score, with
Pittsburgh on the long end, and the 11
to 7 count was a big surprise.
Pitt foueht hitrd for her scores, for the
Red and Blue defense was powerful and
smeared many plays before they got
started. This unexpected opposition at
tho start of the game was disconcerting
to Warner's men, for they expected to
run through the Red and Blue with ease.
In the first halt It required only a short
time to get the ball on the 8-yard line,
where a touchdown seemed certain; but
Penn held and Dehart was hurried so
that he fumbled a lateral pass and Penn
got the ball. On the whole, Penn put up
a wonderful exhibition and deserves
praise even in defeat.
When It Is considered that Pitt came
here with a well-trained and well
coached team, tho men on edge to play
the game of their lives to beat Penn, the
performance of the Red and Blue is all
the more remarkable. Tho team was
not especially prepared for this contest.
It was on the schedule and regarded
merely as b. "practice came" a game to
prepaie the team for the battles with
Dartmouth, Michigan and Cornell. Tho
coaches worked the players the same as
If Albright, Gettysburg, or any other
weak team was to be played. Instead of
one of the best elevens In the country.
So It Is apparent that Penn was not
"tuned up" for a big game, while the
Westerners wero. The Red and Blue
offense was not strengthened, but more
time was spent on the defense, and the
results were highly satisfactory. The
team Bhowed up better in this depart
ment than at nny other tlmo this year.
Pitt was expected to sweep around the
ends for big gains and the heavy backs
tear through the lino whenever they
pleased. Instead, the Penn ends smashed
up tho majority of the wide runs and the
secondary defense took care of tho line
plunges. De Hart got away to u good
gain right at the start of the game, and
It was the longest run made from scrim
mage. Penn's defense made Itself felt
after this and fifteen yards was the most
gained In any one play.
The Red and Blue coaching staff should
bo satisfied with the showing of the team,
for It demonstrated that good football will
be played before the season Is over.
Early in the fall It was known that the
offensive possibilities wero greater than
the dffenBlvo. and the first few games
proved it. How to keep the other team
from gaining was the problem that con
fronted the tutors and after some hard
work this was solved. The offensive was
weak Saturday, but with a week"a coach
ing, this department can bo strengthened.
With Berry. Ross, Williams, Welsh,
Qulgley, Tlghe, Rockefeller, Bell and
Grant to play behind the line, Penn
should be able to develop an attack that
will comparo favorably with any other
In the country, The material Is good
enough for any college team and it will
take only a short time to get the men In
top form. The only weaknesses shown
thus far are poor Interference and fum
bling, and practice will remedy this.
Few persons realize the difficulties that
confronted Penn's coaches at tho start
of the season, The Red and Blue fol
lowers wero enthuslastlo, the material
was said to be the best that Penn ever
had and every one was pleased over the
prospects for a successful season,' They
pointed with pride to the wonderful
backtleld and wero confident that Berry,
Welsh and the others w6uld set the
world on fire as soon &a thoy got Into
action. This early season dope was per
fectly good, so far as the backtleld was

concerned, but no one seemed to pay
any attention to the line. Thero were
sevornl big gaps to nil nnd nothing to
All them with.
Tho writer visited Tome School early
111 September, and saw what the coaches'
were up against. Contrary to reports, tho
material did not look promising for the
line positions, and the coaches wero dis
couraged over the outlook. There was
no centre, the guards did not show var
sity calibre, nnd Harris was tho only man
who could piny tackle. That meant thar
four new men must be developed out of
th material on hand.
At first It was thought that Harry Ross
would bo shifted from tho backtleld to
centre, but a switch was made, nnd Lud
Wray given a chance. Wray has more
than made good, playing a better gama
hi me i-ivuuii position man nt halfback.
He solved one big problem, and Doctor
Wharton, line coach, looked over tho
other backtleld material for a guard and
a tackle. He selected Mathews because
of his weight, and this halfback was tried
out at guard. Mathews weighed moro
than 200 pounds, hnd lots of Bpeed and
after the first week was shifted to tackle.
Where he remained until Injured In the
game with the navy. Neill then appeared
and took Care of one of the guard posi
tions and Hennlng was put in at the
Other.

CORNELL'S WIN
OVER HARVARD
WAS NO FLUKE
Ithacans Clearly Out
played Crimson and Vic
tory Was Well Deserved
SHIVERICK IS REAL STAR
By ROBERT W. MAXWELL
It's a long; lane that lias no turning, and
IlnrvArd found this out Inst Fnturdny.
For 15 long; years tho Crimson traveled
on the toad to victory, wnlloplnR Cornell
with shameful enso until It became more
or less of a habit, nut tho Ithacans
ftngKed them nt a crossing, nnd sent them
down tho rocky road of defeat and hope
to keep them tlicro for some time to
come. It was one of the big; surprises of
tho day, and It put Harvard out of tho
running for tho first time In four years.
Cornell had tho goods, nnd clearly out
played Haughton's men In all stages of
tho game. There was no lluke to tho vic
tory. The gnmo wns won because tho
men from Cayuga Lake followed the ball
cloiely and took advantage of Harvurd's
mistakes and turned them Into something
worth while for their side. Tho Crimson
fumbled n lot, and every tlmo they lld so
a Cornell man fell on tho ball. Eddie.
Mnhan had ono of his oft days, nnd
dropped the pigskin on four different oc
casions when within the shndow of his
own goal posts. Once this resulted In n
touchdown for the vlsltois and another
time a goal from the field was scored.
Some one has to be the "goat" In every
game, nnd for the first tlmo In his career
Mulian Is the unanimous choice lie could
not handle the ball and his punting was
way below his usual form. He allowed
Connell to get the Jump In tho flr3t
quarter by a mistake. Harvard got a
touchback when Ilarrott punted 65 yards
across the goal line. The ball was taken
out to tho XO-yard line. Instead of punt
ing the ball out of danger, which was
the play, tho Crimson tried to rush the
leather. Two attempts nt the line failed
and then Mahan fumbled. Shclton
pounced upon tho bounding ball on the
23-ynrd line. Three smashes at the Har
vard lino placed the ball on tho S-yatd
line. The Crimson forwards wavered, and
Uurrett dashed across the line on tho
next play with the only touchdown of
the game.
Darrctt played a wonderful game while
he lasted, but was forced to retire near
the end of tho first period after stopping
Mahan with a vicious tackle, It wns
thought that the loss 6f their leader
might seriously Jeopardize tho chances of
tho Ithacans, but Shlverick took his ulace
nnd developed Into the star of the game.
His punting saved Cornell time nnd
again when tho team was In a bad posi
tion nnd his kicks wero long and accurate.
Shlverick nlso played a good ga'me on the
defense.
Harvard used a powerful attack from a
kick formation, and the run around end
was her only consistent ground gainer.
Between the two 23-yard lines this play
was difficult to stop, but when tho de
fensive backs played close to the line of
scrimmage It was smeared with little
difficulty. -Cornell's best ground gainer
was tho shift scissors play off tho two
tackles. This worked very well until It
wns used so much that Harvard played
for It each time.
The Cornell team ns It played Saturday
looked like one ot the best aggregations
that has stepped on a gridiron In years.
Harvard, by no mcaiiB a weak eleven,
was completely outclassed, and can And
no excuse for tho defeat. The play of the
ends for Cornell was the best seen for
many a' year, and Cool, the lightest man
on the line, made a wonderful showing
at centre.
Yale attempted to play the old style lino
smashing gamo against Wellington and
Jefferson's modern open game and It
failed to work. Bob Folwell's team again
trailed the Blue In tho dust, and won
easily by the score of 16 to 7.
The fotward pass attack took Tale
completely by surprise, and tho Pennsyl
vania almost gained at will. Just 49
times Folwell's men heaved a short pass
over the line of scrimmage, and 28 times
It wia successful, This short pass was
Washington nnd Jefferson's chief ground
gainer last year, and as yet no defense
has been found to Stop it. Yale tried
three passes, but two were incomplete.
The third wns handled by three men,
and tesulted In a gain for one yard.
It Is evident that something Is the
matter nt Yale this fall. Two defeats
arly In the season Is out of the ordi
nary run of affairs, especially when the
smaller colleges win wholly on their
merits. It also Is strange that the Blue
should fall a victim to the forward pass
ing attack after making such a splurge
with the open game Inst year. Twice
Ynle reached Washington and Jefferson's
5-yard line only to bo compelled to give
up the ball on downs each time. The
Hits lacked tho punch to put the ball
over nnd showed glaring weaknesses on
the defense. As one writer puts It, the
Westerners were severnl pounds lighter
than Yale, but one man on the Wash
ington and Jefferson eleven knew more
football than the whole Blue team put
together.

THE BROAD
A Tale ol 19th Cen'ury England, Full of the Thrills ot Adventure and SfrfrM 4
BY JEPFERY FARNOL
UOOK IT.
CHAPTEII XLI-(Continued).
AND, ns I went, I presently espied a.
Xi. caravan, nnd before It a fire of sticks,
above which a man wah bending, who,
raining his head, stared at mo as t ap
proached. lie was a strange looking man,
who glared at mo with one eye and leered
jocosely nlth tho other; and, being spent
and short of breath, I stopped, and wip
ing the sweat from my eyes I saw thit
It was blood.
"How Is Lewls7" I panted.
"Whnt." exclaimed the man, drawing
nearer, "Is It you? James! but you're a
plcter, you are hallo!" ho stopped, as his
glance encountered the steel that glittered
upon my wrist! while upon the silence
tho shouts swelled, drawing tic.tr and
nearer.
"So the Itunners Is oxter you, are they,
young feller?"
"Yes, said 1; "yes. You have only to
cry out, and they will tako me, for I can
light no more, nor run any farther; this
knock on tho head has made me very
tUszy."
"Then-take a pull at this 'ere," said
he, and thrust a flat bottle Into my hand
The riery spirit burned my throat, but
almost Immediately my strength and
courage revived,
"Dotter?"
'Muoh better," I answered, returning
the bottle, "and I thank you "
"Don't go for to thank me, young fel
ler," said he driving the cork Into the
bottle with a blow of his list, "you thank
that young feller as once done as much
for mo at a FVilr. An' now cut away
run I tho 'edge Is good and dark, up yonder-May
low a bit, and leave these
damned Runners to me." I obeyed with
out more ado, and, ns I ran up the lane,
I heaid him shouting nnd swearing' as
though engaged In a desperate encounter;
and, turning In tho shadow of the hedg,
1 saw him met by two men, with whom,
still shouting and gesticulating excitedly
ho set oft, running down the lano.
And so f, once more, turned my face
London-wards.
The blood still Mowed from the cut In
my head, getting often Into my eyes, yet
I made good progress notwithstanding
But, little by little, the effect of the
spirits wore off, a drowsiness stole ovvr
tin. my limbs felt numbed and heavy.
And with this came strange fancies and
a dread of the dark. Sometimes It seemed
that odd lights danced beforo my eyes,
like marsh-fires, and strange voices gao
bled In my ears, furiously unintelligible,
with laughter In a high-pitched key,
sometimes I cast myself down In thi
dewy grass, only to start up again, trem
bling, nn-i run on till I was brcuhlesj;
but ever 1 struggled forward, despite the
throbbing of my broken head, and the
gnawing hunger that consumed me.
After a while a mist came on, a mist
that formed Itself Into deep valleys, or
rose In Jagged spires and pinnacles, but
constantly changing: a mist thnt movjd
and writhed within Itself. And in tnu
mist wero forms, nebulous and indistinct,
multitudes that moved in time with me,
and the voices seemed louder than before,
and the laughter much shriller, while re
peated over and over again, I caught that
awful word: MURDER, MURDER.
Chief among this host walked one whose
head and face were muffled from my
sight, but who watched me', I knew,
through the folds, with eyes that stared
fixed and wide.
But now, Indeed, the mist seemed to
havo got Into my brain, and all things
wero hazy, and my memory of them Is
dim.
Yet I recall passing Bromley village,
and slinking furtively through the
shadows ot the deserted High street, but
thereafter all Is blank save a memory
of pain and toll and deadly fatigue.
I was stumbling up steps the steps of
a terrace; a great house lay before me,
with lighted windows here and there, but
these I feared, und so came creeping to
one that I knew well, and whose dark
panes glittered palely under the dying
moon. And now I took out my clasp
knife, and, fumbling blindly, put back
the catch (as I had often done as a
boy), and so, the window opening, I
clambered Into the dimness beyond.
Now as I stumbled forward my hand
touched something, a long, dark object
that was covered with a cloth, and, hard
ly knowing what I did, I drew back this
cloth and looked down at that which It
had covered, and sank down upon my
knees, groaning. For there, staring up
at me, cold, contemptuous, and set like
marble, was the smiling, dead face of my
cousin Maurice.
As I knelt there, I was conscious that
the door had opened, that some one ap
proached, bearing a light, but I did not
move or heed.
"Peter? good God In' heaven! Is It
Peter?" I looked up and Into the dilated
eyes of Sir Richard. "Is It really Peter?"
he whispered.
"Yes, slr-dylng, I think."
"No, no Peter dear boy," he stam
mered. "You didn't know you hadn't
heard poor Maurice murdered fellow
name of Smith 1"
"Yes, Sir Richard, I know more about
It than most. You see, I am Peter Smith."
Sir Richard fell back from me, and I saw
the candle swaying In his grasp.
"You?" ho whispered, "you? Oh. Peterl
oh, my boy!"
"Hut I am Innocent Innocent you be
lieve me you who were my earliest
friend my good, kind friend you believe
me?" and I stretched out my hands ap
peallngly, but, as I did the light fell
gleaming upon my snameful wristlets;
and, even as we gazed Into each other's
eyes, mute und breathless, came the sound
of steps and hushed voices. Sir Richard
sprang forward, and, catching me In a
powerful hand, half led, half dragged
me behind a tall leather screen beside
the hearth, and thruatit.g me Into a chair,
turned and hurried to meet the In
truders. They were three, as I soon discovered
by their voices, one ot which I thought
I recognized.
"It's a devilish shame!" the first was
saying; "not a soul here for the funeral
but our four selves I say It's a shame
a burning shame!"
"That, sir, depends entirely on the point
of view," answered the second, a some
what aggressive voice, and this tt was 1
seemed to recognize.
"Point of view, lr7 Wheie, I should
like to know, are all those smiling
nonentities those fawning sycophants
who were once so proud of his patronage,
who openly modeled themselves upon him,
whose highest ambition was to be called
a friend of the famous 'Buck Vibart
Where are they now?"
"Doing the same by the present favorite.
a Is the nature ot their kind," responded
the third, "poor Maurice Is already for
gotten." The Prince,' said the harsh voice, "the
Prince would never have forgiven him for
crossing him in the affair of the Lady
Sophia Befton; the day he ran off with
her he was as surely dead in a social
sense aa he Is now In every sense."
Here the mist settled down upon my
brain once more, and t heaid nothing
but a confused murmur of voices, and
It seemed to me that I was back on the
road again, hemmed In by those gibbering
phantoms that spoke so much, and 11
said but one word; "Murder."
"Quick a candle here a candlfc-brtnr
a light " There came a glare before my
smarting eye, and I struggled up to my
feet.
"Why I have seen this fellow's face
aoinqwlxre ah! yes, at an Inn a hang

I remember, snd-tjy Heaven! handcuffs.
''He has been roughly handled, toot

HIGHWAY
But the mist was very thick, ana th
voices grew confused again; only I krMW
thnt hands were upon me, that t was)
led Into another room, where Were Merits.
thnt glittered upon the silver, the ' -1
canters and glasses of a supper table,
"Yes," 1 was saying, slowly and hv J
liy; "yes, I am Peter Smith a blacksmith

Tore Ood I am Innocent And now a
with me as you will for I hm very

Sir Richard's arm was about me, ami
his voice sounded In my ears, but aa
though a great way off:
"Sirs," said he, "this Is my friend
Sir Peter Vibart." Thero was a mb
ment's pause, then a chair tell with a
crash, and there rose a confusion of ex- tl
cited voices which grew suddenly silent,
for the door had opened, and on tho
threshold stood a woman, tall and proud .1
and ncniy dressed, from the little dusty
boot that peeped beneath her habit to the
wide-sweeping hat brim that shaded the
high beauty ot her face. And I Would
hnve gone to her but that my strength n
railed me.
"Charmlant"
She started, and, turning, uttered a '
cry and ran to me.
"Charmlan." said I; "oh, Charmlant"
And o, with her tender arms about me,
and her kisses on my lips, the mist set
tled down upon me, thicker and darker
than ever.
CHAPTER XML
A BRIGHT room, luxuriously appoint
edj a great wide bed with carved
posts and embroidered canopy; between
the curtained windows, a tall pak press
with grotesque heads carved thereon,
heads that leered and gaped and scowled
nt me. But the bed and the room and
the oak press were all familiar, and the
grotesque heads had leered and gaped
and frowned at me before, and haunted
my boyish dreams many and many a
night.
And now I lay between sleeping and
waking, staring dreamily at all these
things, till roused by a volco near by, and
starting up, broad awake, beheld Sir
Richard.
"Deuce take you, Peterl" he exclaimed:
"I say the devil fly away with you, my
boyl curse me! a nlco pickle you've
made of yourself, with your Infernal rev
olutionary notions your digging and
blacksmlthtng, your walking tours ,r
"Vhera Is she, Sir Richard?" I broke
In; "pray, where Is she?"
"She?" he returned, scratching his chin
with the corner of a letter he held:
"she?"
"Phe whom I saw last night "
"You were asleep last night, and the
night before."
"Asleep? then how long havo I been
here?"
"Three days, Peter!"
"And where Is she surely T have not
dreamed It all where Is Charmlan?"
"Sho went away this morning,"
"uonc; where to7"
Gad, Peterl how should I know?" But.
seeing tho distress In my face, he smiled
and tendered me the letter. "She left
this 'For Peter, when he awoke' and
I've been waiting for Peter to wake all
the morning."
Hastily I broke the seal. and. unfolding
the paper with tremulous hands, rend:
"Dearest, Noblest and most Disbeliev
ing of Peters: Oh, did you think you could
litdO your hateful suspicion from me
from me who knew you so well? I felt It
In your kiss. In tho touch of your strong
hand, I saw it In your eyes. Even when
I told you -the truth, and begged you to
believe me, even then, deep down in yoiir
heart you thousht It was my hand that
had killed Sir Maurice, and God only
knows the despair that, filled me as I
turned and left you. """ -
"And so. Peter perhaps to punish you a
little, perhaps because I cannot bear the
noisy world Just yet, perhaps because I
fear j'ou a little I havd run atay. But
I remember rIbo how, believing me guilty,
you loved me still, and gave yourself
up to shield me, and, dying of hunger
and fatigue came to find me. And so,
Peter, I have not run so very far, nor
hidden myself so very clos, and if you
understand me as you should, your search
need not be so very lony. And, dear
Peter, thero Is Just one other thing,
which I hoped that you would guess,
which any other would have guessed, but
which, being a philosopher, you never
did guess. Oh, Peter I was once, very
long ago It seems, Sophia Charmlan Set
ton, but I am now, and always wns, your
humblo person,
"CHARMIAN."
The letter fell from my fingers,- and I
remained staring before mo so long that
Sir Richard came and laid his hand on
my shoulder.
"Oh, boy, ' said he, very tenderly; "she
has told me all the story, and I think.
Peter, It Is given to very few men to
win the love ot such a woman as this."
"God knows It!" said I.
"And to nave married, one eo very
noble and high In all things you should
bo very proud, Peter."
"I am," said I; "oh, I am. sir."
"Even, Peter even though she be a
virago, this Lady Sophia or a terma
gant "
"I was a great fool in those days," said
I, hanging my head, "and very young!"
"It was only six months, ago, Peter."
"But I am years older today, sir."
"And the husband ot the most glorious
woman the most oh, curse me, Peter,
If j'ou deserve such a goddess!"
"And she worked for me!" said I;
"cooked and served and mended my
clothes where are they?" I cried, and
sprang out ot bed.
"AVhat the decue "began Sir Richard.
"My clothes," said I, looking vainly
about, "my clothes pray, Blr Richard,
where are they?"
"Burnt, Peter."
"Burntl"
"Every blood-stained ragl" he nod4a;
"her orders."
"But-what am I to dor'
Sir Richard laughed, and, crossing t
the press, opened the door.
