EbcietjbaitedwlthtUo fivehundred guineas,
at tho bridgo. 7 H 0 posted up to' London, saw
Bradshaw, a/Ja.mOus Bow.street runner, and,
arranged that be and bis men should «jme
down end heip do catch Tom; but just at thb
last moment/ Bradshaw wub detained on somo
important' government trial, and so another
,funrier, Er&zer, a no less celebrated officer,
tookhis jtuice. : -
- .It was settled that'the runners should come
by different : roads, and all meet at a wayside
jnn, about flvo miles from the bridge, at eigbt
o’clock, P. Mr, on tho day my ftther’s pocket
hopk was to. bo returned.. An hourafterwards,.
they were to Join him on the road three fields
furfher' on. Their object, you aeo, in taking
this roundabouticourse, was to baffle Tom’s
spies and accomplices, and to get securely hid
about' the.appoiutcd spot, long before the ap
pointed time.
'/My father was a little late at the placo di
meeting,' but when ho arrived there, ho could
seo, no one - about oxcept a loutish-looking
'countryman in a'smock feeck, who was swing
iiigon a gate bard by.
: ■ said tho yokel.
<j Good night to yon,” said my fathor.
“ Can tell mo who this yer letter’s fori’’
said the yokel/producing a folded paper.
! Hy. father saw. In a moment that it was bis
own letter to Bradshaw.
1 «iptere did yon getthat ?” he said quickly.
«-Ah," replied the yokel, replacing it in bis
pocket, “ thatud be tellina. Be yor expecting
anybody!”'
... “ IWhat’s that to you 7” aaid my father.
’ “Oh,nought,” Bald the yokel, “only n gen
tleman from London—”
m« B*l?’ criedmy fathor,« whatgentleman?”
« Will a name beginning with P suit you I”
asked the yokel. ■
- “Fraierl” ' The word fell involuntarily
ffbm'myTathof’s lips.
: h<That’s- tho name,” replied tho yoke),
Jumping down from his seat, and changing his
tone and manner fix' a moment. “ I’m Frazer,
sir,'and you’re Mr. Sandigor, as has been
robbed, of a pocket-book containing valuablo
papers) and we’re ! going to catch Tom Eocket
as has got it—that’s our gamo, sir. 'Ail right,
sir, and how to business-”
“But where are yourmon/” my father
asked, when. Frazer had explained tho reason
for his disguise. ‘
“ All right again, Bir,” Bald the same rnn
ner—“they will join us. Wo have not much
time to lose, so please to lead tho way.”
So my father led tho way, followed by Fra
zer, and by tho time that they came in sight of
the bridge, they had been joined by four Lon
don officers, in different disguises, and from
different directions. One appeared as a tramp,
one as a'pedlar/another as a gentleman’s ser
vant leading a horse, and the fourth a soldier.
.No one could have guessed that they bad met
before, much loss that they were engaged to
gether in a pre-concerted schemo. My lather
gave Frazer great credit for the dexterous way
in which ho had collected his forces.
Tfye bridge.upon whfcbthe money waste
be placed consisted of two arches across thb
rivor, and was joined on either side by a long
sort of causeway, built upon piles over mea
dows that in tho wiotdb timo wero generally
covered with water. It bo happened that the
very next morning after the robbery, a heavy
rain set ’ln, and soon the floods wero out, so
that there was no way of getting on the bridge
bat by going along the causeway, which ex
tended a distance of a hundred yards, sloping
down gradually to the road, on each.side of
the river. This causeway was built oP-wood.
At jsome places tho timbers were covered with
earth and stones, but at others tho roadway
had worn out and they were bare, so that any
one looking up from underneath could »oc
who was passing overhead. Mr. Frazer’s
sharp eye took in tho position in a moment.
Bo got two hurdles out of a field close by, and
with some ropa that ho had brought for an
other purpose, fastened them to tho pullies k so
that they hung like shelves to tho roadway and
tho flood, onefft each side of tho bridge; and
about hyenty yards from it. This was his
plan: Two of his men wero to he hiddon on
each hurdle, whilst he and my father in a boat
that was concealed beneath tho main arch of
tho bridge, nnseen themselves, could watch
tho heap of stones where tho money was to ho
placed, and the stolen pocket-book left in ex
change for it. As soon as Tom Socket, or
any of big’friends, removed the bag in which
tho gold.ivas .packed, Frazer was to whistlo,
and' his men wore to climb from tbeir hiding
places and 'secure whoever it,might be. If ho
leaped over the railing of the causoway,and
took to tho water, there was the boat in which
to follow and capture him.
Mr. Frazor was very particular to practico
•his allies in springing quickly irom their place
of concealment, and impressing upon them
and my father tho. necessity of all acting to
gether, keeping careful watch and strict si
lence.. “And now, sir,” Mr. Frazer said to
my father, as a distant clock chimed a quarter
of twelve, «it is time to get our places and to
bait the trap, so please hand mo tho bag that I
may mark it, and somo of the coins, so as to he
able to identify them at the trial.” Be had
made up his mind to nail master Tom this time.
My father gave him tho bag, saw him write
upon it, and make some scratches on about a
dozen of. the guineas, and then* my father lot
himseli down into the boat, in which ho was
mmediately joined by tho runner.
“ It’s all right,” said Frazer, in a low tone.
“Do you think ho will comot” whispered
my father!
“ Certain,” replied Frazer, « but hush I wo
must not talk, sir, time’s up.”
' For three mortal hours did my father sit ih
that boat, and the runners lay stretched out on
tho broad of their backs upon those hurdles,
•watching for Tom Bockot to como for his
money; and lor threo mortal hours not a soul
approached the bridge, not a sound but the
wash of tha swollen river was heard.. By the
time that the dock (track three, my father,
who had been nodding for tho last twenty ml.
antes, fell fast asleep as ho sat covered up in
his cloak,for It .was a bitter cold nights but
was very speedily aroused by hearing Frazer
cry but that they were adrift.
Adrift they were sure enough. Tho rope
that held them had been chafed against tho
sharp corner of a pile (so Jfr. Fraser ci
plained) till ft broke, and away went tho boat,
whirling round and round in tho eddies of tho
river, fit to make any one giddy. So strong
was the stream that tboy were carried a mile
and a half down it, before they could get
‘My father was for returning directly
to the bridge, and so was Fraser; but, some
how or other, thoy lost oach other in the dark,
and whon my father arrived there, having ran
nearly all the way, he found, to his great sur
prise, that tho officers had left. Ho rushed to
the heap of stones, Mid there tho first thing
that saugbt his eye was his pocket-book—Me
money teas gone/
Lord, how he did swear!
Determining to have It out with the runners
for deserting their posts, ho harried on to tho
inn where they hod met,' and wore to pass the
night. He knocked at the door. No answer.
He knocked again loader. No answer. H.o
