CHAPTER II.
We rode on and on through the dark
ness. At first my excitement-was so
great as to render thougtit impossible;
moreover the riding was of the roug-h-est,
and I had' all I could do to keep my
eeat. But gradually as I began to
fcrow more accustomed to my situation,
I was overtaken with a most dreadful
misgiving. Th rider ihad hitherto
seemed like enough to Dick, for I hud
known he would do his best to change
liis voice; and as for 'his foolish robbery,
it was just a. piece with tils natural love
.- Imagine My Distress.
Df mischief. : But now I began to feel
certain that some Imposter had taken
his part; that I had eloped with another
man and him a common highwayman.
Imagine my distress! I could conceive
of no method of extricating myself from
the position; & sense of blank helpless
ness, came over me, and I could do no
more than cling tightly to the high
wayman and await the event
. We had ridden some miles, when he
suddenly drew rein and dismounted,
landing me lightly beside him.
"Upon my soul!" he said, "here Is a
pretty adventure! Heaven knows that
I had always a passion for the unusual,
or I should' still be a humble URher In
BnyincaHter academy. Hut, tell me,
What am I to do with you?"
. 1 suppose I, had hoped against hope;
to find my tears were Justified wa a
disastrous blow to me, nor could I make
any answer.
"I .would not wish a braver sweet
heart," he continued) speaking wtth nn
odd and attractive perplexity. "But
what have we gentlemen of the road to
do with wives? Why, sweetheart, you
heard, the promises of your guardian.
He will surely do his utmost to fulfill
(hem, end how should I dare go tol the
gallows if I knew that I left you wid
owed and' alone?' 1 trust a score of
maids would weep a little if poor Jack
Arthur went the common way; but God,
forbid that any should remember him
at a week's end. It may seem that I

am ungallant, yet I protest that I do not
like my share In this adveuiture. Kiss
me, sweet, and then fancy that I am
old and very wise, and take my counsel,
which is: that you permit me' to con
duct you back to some place near your
home. And yet I would not wish a
braver sweetheart!"
And then, moved by the kindness of
his words, and his pleasant voice, I lost
command of myself and burst Into fool
ish weeping.
"Sir," I said, "I am altogether at your
mercy. I have done that which will
shame me all thft rest of my days. But,
Indeed, I thought you were another, my
sweetheart, whom 1 should have mar
ried tomorrow."
I fancied he spoke less gaily than be
fore: perhaps he had not hoped alto
gether that I would take his sage ad
vice. "Ho, ho!" he cried, "then my good
fortune is but another theft to my ac
count? I do not understand. You were
were to have married your lover tomor
row, and yet you entreat a stranger, und
a highwayman at that, to carry you
off! This is the maddest of adven
tures." "Sir!" I said, "my uncle stands to me
in the place of father and mother."
The highwayman chuckled. "Poor
child!" he said, and softly stroked my
hand, which, it seems, he had been
holding for some minutes. "Poor
child!"
"He would have me marry one whom
I do not love, and I begun to fear that
presently he would overcome me, and
and compel"
"The old hunks!" cried the highway
man. "You shall marry whom you
choose. Nay, I withdraw my foolish
wisdom; pome with me,- and before the
night is here again you shall be Mis
tress Arthur. Believe me," he added
with a pretty conceit "believe me,
there are many who will envy you."
"But, sir," I Interrupted, "you forget
what I have told you. Of late I have
been closely guarded, for my uncle had
discovered that I have, given my love to
a yeoman of the place, and It was ar
ranged that he should stop the coach
on our return from the ball aud carry
me away with him." .
The highwayman, laughed loudly.
"And that Is why you did not faint or
scream?" he said. "I fell In love with
you because of that, and that Is why I
was so flattered at your suggestion of
an elopement. But, what will the real
lover do? Will he stop the coach a sec
ond time , and find the bird flown? I
warrant he will piny the part exactly.
I should hardly be surprised to hear lie
had let himself be captured."
I could not endure his Jesting. "Sir,"
I ald, "I am In your hands, and it is
small wonder you find my plight only
laughable. I have made myself a show
for all the country to laugh at. Never
a peddlar but will be singing ballads In
a se'nnlght about this that I have done
tonight. Yet I could believe you kinder
than most. I entreat that you will
help me."
He was sober In a moment. "Upon
my soul!" he said, "the case Is one to
puzzle a very Holomon. I would do
much to help you, but I am not alto
gether free to do as I would. To be
frank, my Ufehangs upon my escaping
out of these regions with all the celeri
ty I can command. And my Jlfe But
listen!" .. .
He broke off, and kneeling,, placed
his ear to the ground.' Then he arose,
with a curious, excited laugh. "The
adventure grows in Interest," he said.
"Here comes the honest yeoman, and In
hot haste."
I listened eagerly, and heard far oft
the sound of a horse galloping furious

ly along the rough track, which was
then the only road across the great
moorland. I saw a sudden movement
on the part of my companion, and per
ceived that he was fingering his pistols
as he stood silent in the darkness.
"Not that!" I cried, entreatingly.
"There will be need of an' explana
tion of some kind," he said; "perhaps
you will undertake it. 1 confess I
havei not a sufficient gift of words, and
am a little Inclined to doubt wheth 'l'
"Kick." I Cried, "All's Well."
your sweetheart will be In the mood for
explanations. Doubtless, as a g-.'ntl"-man
of the road, he will ride armed."
The sound of hoofs grew nearer. He
was silent now. and listened most at
tlvely to the approaching sound. Pres
ently the rider was quite near.
"Dick!" 1 called. "Dick! all's well,
and I am In the company of a friend of
yours and mine."
A moment later he was upon us, and
sure enough he held n pistol in his hand.
He Jumped from his horse In an In
stant and caught me to him; but It was
the highwayman who spoke first.
"Sir," he said, "I see by the pistol you
carry that you take a very proper view
of the situation. And yet I believe that
everything may be explained. If you
will consult the lady"
"Dick," I snld, "this gentlemnn Is a
friend. He took me with him, very
much against his will, bpoause I asked
that he would take me; and I did that
because I thought ho was you. You
know our plan. He Is "
I paused. The highwayman laughed.
"I follow, day by day, the trade which
it pleased you to adopt for a single
night. I anticipated you by a. few min
utes. We are both of us tall men, and
the lady took the difference at voice
and manner as a clever disguise.1 I was
engaged about my ordinary business
when she appeared to suggest that I
should elope with her. 1 will confess
my good luck amazed me at first, but I
was quick to embrace It; nor did I dis
cover how far astray my conceit had
led me until the very moment of your
approach. We were endeavoring to
devise a method of restoring the lady
to her friends when you appeared to
solve our dllllculty."
"You forget," said Dick, doggedly,
"you forget the little matter of the
money and Jewels you have stolen."
The highwayman started. ' 'Con
vey,' the wise call It," he replied, with
some tartness. But the only course is,
that I should surrender everything to
you; and then it hould be clear to you
that 1 am no less than a messt'n'gcr of
Providence to you and the lady-pa god
from the machine."
Dick was silent, his arm about my
waist, his figure held ready for action.
"The good uncle has been lobbed of
goods and niece," went on the high
wayman easily. "You come upon him

least the uncle can do is to give you
the lady in return for his goods. For,
though perhaps you do not guess it,
you have shown some bravery tonight."
The thing was beautifully clear.
"Indeed," I cried, "he shall do no less.
Dick, we will go back; and I promise
you shall marry me when you will, and
with his consent. Do you not see It?"
"He ought to do so," said Dick, grudg
ingly. "I suppose we must thank you,
sir."
"Oh!" said the highwayman, lightly,
"there Is no need of llmiiks. Here are
the Jewels and the purse. Hut first"
he opened the purse and extracted some
scraps f paper "1 promised to liber
ate certain poor debtors, and that
promi.se I must keep."
He tore the paper into fragments and
leaped upon his horse.
"Farewell!" he cried, and vanished
into the night. Nor did II hear of him
again until he was hanged two years
afterwards for a daring robbery.
At hast there was one who wept at
the news of his death and she a happy
wife.
