CHAPTER III.
"You burled him aHve?" For a mo
ment I was too Htunned act. Then I
hurled myself upon the man, as he sut,
with that plueld Hmlle of his upon his
lips, and I would have torn his throat
out had Iho three wretches not dragged
me awuy from him. Again and again
I made for him, panting and cursing,
Shaking off thit) man and thit-t, strain
lnt and wrenching, but never quite
free. At lust, with my JuVket nearly
torn off my back and the blood dripping
from my wrists. I was hauled back
Wards In the bight of a rope and cords
passed around my ankles and my arms.
"You sleek hound," I cried. "If ever
I have you nt my swurdspolnt I will
teach you to maltreat one of my lads.
You will find, you bloodthirsty beast,
that my emperor has long arms, and,
though you lie here like a rut In Its hole,
the time will come when he will tear
you out of it, and you and your vermin
will perlBh together." Sly faith, I have
a rough elde to my tongue, and there
was not a hard word that I had learned
In fourteen campaigns which I did not
let fly at him, but he sat with the han
dle of his pen tapping against his fore
head and 'his eyes squinting up at the
roof as if he had conceived the Idea of
some new stanza. It was this occupa
tion of his which showed mo how I
might get my point into him. "You
spawn," said I, "you think that you are
tuife liere, but your Ufo may 'be as short
as that of your absurd verses, and God
knows It could not be shorter than
that."
Oh, you should have seen him bound
from his chair when I had said the
words. This vile monster, who dis
pensed death and torture as a grocer
serves out figs, had one raw nerve
which I could prod at pleasure. His
face now grew livid and those little
bourgeois side whiskers quivered and
thrilled with his passion.
"Very good, colonel. You have said
enough," he cried, in a choking voice.
"You say that you have had a very dis
tinguished career; I promise you also a
Very distinguished ending. Colonel
Etlenne Gerard, of the Third hussars,
shall have a death of his own."
"And I only beg," said I, "that you
Jo not commemorate it In verse." I
had one or two other little Ironies to
utter, but he cut me short with a fu
rious gesture which caused my three
guards to drag me from the cave.
Our interview, which I have told you
ns nearly as I can remember it, must
have lasted some tlm, for it was quite
dark when we came out, and the moon
was shining very clearly in the heav
ens. The brigands had lighted a great
fire of the dried branches of the fir
trees; not of course for warmth, since
the night was already very sultry, but
to cook their evening meal. A huge
copper pot hung over the blaze, and
the rascals were lying all around in
the yellow glare, so that the scene
looked like one of those pictures which
Junot stole out of Madrid. There are
some soldiers who profess to care noth
ing for art and the like, but I have
always been drawn toward It myself, In
which respeot I show my good taste
and my breeding. I remember, for ex
ample, that when they were selling the
plunderd after the fall of Danzig, I

11 is Own."
bought a very fine picture called
'Nymphfl'Surprlsed in a Wood," and I
carried It with me through two cam
paigns until my charger had the mis
fortune to put his hoof through it.
I only tell you this, however, to show
you that I was never a mere rough sol
dier like Kapp or Lefebvre. As I lay
In that brigand's camp J had little time
or inclination to think about such mat
ters. They had thrown me down un
der a tree, the three vllllans squatting
round and smoking their cigarettes
within hand's touch of me. What to
do I could nut Imagine. In my whole
'career I do not suppose that I have ten
times been In as hopeless a situation.
'But courage," thought I, "courage,
my brave boy, you were not made a
colonel of hussars at 28 because you
could dance a . cotillon. You are a
picked man, Ktionne, a man who has
crnne through more than 200 affairs and
this little one Is surely not going to

would bring as satisfactory re

absolute purity of its compo

of its manufacture. Nobody has
ever been able to imitate it

glance about for some chance of ea
cape, and as I did so I saw some.
thing which filled me with great aston
ishment.
I have already told you that a largo
fire was burning In the center of the
glade. What with Its glare and what
with Ha moonlight everything was as
clear as possible. On the other side of
the glade there was a single tall fir tree
which attracted my attention because
Its trunk and lower brunches were dis
colored, as if a large lire had recently
been lit underneath It. A clump of
bushes grew in front of It which
concealed the base. Well, as 1

looked toward it I was urprlsed to see
projecting above the bush, and fastened
apparently to the tree, a pair of fine
riding boots with the toes upward. At
first I thought that they were tied
there, but 'as I looked harder I saw
that they were secured by a great nail
which was hammered through the foot
of each. And then suddenly, with a
thrill or horror, I understood that they
wero not empty boots, and, moving my
head a little to the right, I waa able, to
see who it was that had been fastened
there and why a fire had been lit be
neath the tree. It Is not pleasant to
speak or think of horrors, my friends,
and I do not wish to give any of you
bad dreams tonight, but I cannot take
you among the Spanish guerrillas with
out showing you what kind of men
they were and the sort of warfare that
they waged. I will only say that I un
derstood why Monsieur Vidal's horse
was waiting masterless In the grove
and that I hoped that he had met this
terrible fate with sprlghtllness and
courage, as a good Frenchman ought.
It was not a very cheering sight for
me, as you can imagine. When I had
been with their chief in the grotto I
had been so carried away by my rage
at the cruel death of young Soublron,
who was one of the brightest lads who
ever threw his thigh over a charger,
trttt I had never given a thought to my
own position. Perhaps it would have
been more politic had I spoken the
ruffian fair, but It was too late now.
The cork was drawn and I must drain
the wine. Besides, If the harmless
commissariat man was put to such a
death, what hope was there for me,
who had snapped the spine of their
lieutenant? No, I was doomed in any
case,' so it was as well, perhaps, that I
should have put the best face on the
matter. This beast could bear witness
that Ktlenne Gerard had died as he
had lived, and that one prisoner at
least had not quailed before him. I lay
there thinking of the various girls who
would mourn for me, and for my dear
old mother, and of the deplorable loss
that I should .be both to my regiment
and to the emperor, and I am not
ashamed to confess to you that I shed
tears as I thought of the general con
sternation which my premature end
would give rise to.
But all the time I was taking the
very keenest notice of everything
which might possibly help me. I am
not a man who would He like a sick
horse waiting for the farrlar sergeant
and the pole ax. ' First I would give a
little tug at my ankle cords, and then
another at those that were around my
wrists, and all the time I was trying to
loosen them I was peering round to
see If I could find something which was
In my favor. There was one thing
which was very evident. A hussar Is
but half formed without a horse, and
there was my other half quietly graz
ing within thirty yards of me. Then I
observed yet another thing. The path
by which we had come over the moun
tains was so steep that a horse could
only be led across It slowly and with
difficulty, but In the other direction
the ground appeared to be more open,
and to lead straight down Into a gently
sloping valley. Had I but my feet in
yonder stirrups and my saber In my
hand, a. single bold dash might take
me out of the power of these vermin of
the' rocks,
I was still thinking it over and strain
ing with my wrists and my ankles
when their chief came out from his
grotto .and after some talk with his
lieutenant, who lay groaning near the
fire, they both nodded their heads and
looked across at me. He then said
some few; words to- the band, who
clapped their hands and laughed up
roariously. Things looked omnious, and
I was delighted to feel that my hands
were so far free that I could easily slip
them through . the cords If I wished.
But with my ankles I feared that I
could do nothing, for when I stra'lned
It brought such pain into my lance
wound that I had to gnaw my mustache
to keep from crying out. I could only
lie still, half free and half bound, and
see what turn things were likely to
take.
For a little I could not see what they
were after. One of the rascals climbed
up to the to of a well-grown fir
tree up on one side of the glade, and
tied a rope around the top of the trunk.
He then fastened another rope in the
same fashion to a similar tree on the
pther side. The two loose ends were
now dangling down, and I waited with
some curiosity and Just a little trepida
tion to see what they would do next
The whole band pulled upon one of the
ropes until they had bent the strong
young tree, down Into a semi-circle,
and they then fastened It to a stump,
so' as to hold It so. . When they had
bent the other tree down In a similar
fashion, the two summits were within
a few feet of each other, though, as
23
you understand, they would each
spring back to their original position
the Instant that they were released. I
already saw the diabolical plan which
those miscreants had formed.
' "I presume that you are a strong man,
colonel," said the chief, Coming toward
me with his hateful smile.
"If you will have the kindness to
loosen these cords," 1 answered, "I will
show you how strong I am.
"We were all Interested to see wheth
er you -were as strong as these two
young saplings," said he. "It is our In
tention, you see, to tie one end of each
rope round your ankles and then to let
the trees go. If you are stronger than
the trees, then, of course, no harm
would be done. I1on the other hand
the trees are stronger than you why.
In that case, colonel, we may have a
souvenir of you upon each side of our
little glude." lie laughed as he spoke,
and at the sight of it the whole forty

In my sleep that ring of dnrk savage

CHAPTEK IV.
It is astonishing and I have heard
many make the same remark how
acute, one's senses become at such a
crisis us this. 1 am convinced that at
no moment Is one living so vividly, bo
acutely, as at the Instant when a vio
lent and foreseen death overtakes one.

when the chief hud aililivsRml inn t h,,.i

hair shaded my lip, would mistake the

comrades, help!" I shrieked, and though

tried to drag me up to the tree, I kept
on yelling: "Help me, my brave boys!

came galloping n fine young man upon
a most beautiful roan horse. He was
rresh faced and pleasant looking, with
the most debonnalre bearing in the
world and the most gallant way of
carrying himself, a way which remind
ed me somewhat of my own. Ho wore
a singular coat which had once been
red ail over, but which was now stained
to the color of a withered oak leaf
wherever the weather could reach It.
His shoulder straps, however, were of
golden lace, and he had a bright metal
helmet upon his head with a coquettish
white plume upon one side of Its crest.
He trotted Ms horse up 'the glade, while
behind him there rode four cavellers In
the same dress all clean shaven, with
round comely faces, looking to me more
like monks than dragoons. At a short
gruff order they halted with a rattle
of arms, while their leader cantered
forward, the fire beating upon his eager
race and the beautiful head of his
charger. I , knew of course by the
strange coats that they were English.
It was the first sight that I had ever
had of them, but frqnutbelr stotit bear
ing and their jmjisjeiria jvay'I could
see at a glaifce'that whsft I Kiuf always
been told was true, and that they we're
excellent people to fight against.
"Well, well, well!" cried the young
officer. In sufficiently bad French
"What devil's game are you up to here?
Who was that who was yelling for
help, and what are you trying to do to
him?"
It was at that moment that 1 learned
to bless those months which Obrlant,
the descendant of the Trish kings, had
spent in teaching me the tongue of the
English. My nkles had just been
freed, so that I had only to slip my
hands out of the cords, and with ,n
single rush I had flown across, picked
up my saber where It lay by the fire,
and hurled myself onto the saddle of
poor Vidal's horse. Yes, for all my
wounded ankle, I never put foot to
stirrup, but was In the seat In a single
bound. I tore the halter from the tree,
and before those vllllans could so much

as Bnap a pistol at me I was beside the
English officer.
"I surrender to you, sir." I cried,
though 1 dare say my English was not
much better than his French. "If you
will look at that tree to the left you
will see what these vllllans do to the
honorable gentlemen who fall Into their
hands."
The fire had flared up at the mo
ment, and there was poor Vidal exposed
before them, as horrible an object as
one could see In a nightmare. "Godam!"
cried the officer, and "Godam!" cried

each of the four troopers, which is the
same as with us when we cry "Man
Uiou!" Out rasped the five swords and
the four men closed up. One who wore
a sergeant's chevron laughed and
clapped me on the shoulder. "Fight
for your skin, froggy," cried he.
Ah! it was so line to have a horse be
tween my thighs and a weapon in my
grip. I waved It above my hend and
shouted In my exultation. The chief
hud come forward, with that odious
smiling face of his.
"Your excellency will observe that
this Frenchman Is our prisoner," he
said.
"You are a rascally robber," said the
Englishman, shaking his sword at him.
"It Is a disgrace to us to have such
allies. By the Lord, if the general were
of my mind we should swing you up to
the nearest tree."
"Hut my prisoner?" said the brigand,
In his suave voice.
"He shall come with us to Lord Wel
lington's camp."
"Just a word in your ear before you
take him."
He approached the young officer, and
then, turning as quick as a flash, he
fired his pistol in my face. The bullet
scored Its way through my hair and
burst a hole on each side of my busby.
Seeing that he had missed me, he raised
the pistol and was about to hurl it at
me, when the English sergeant, with a
single backhanded cut, nearly severed
his head from his body. His blood had
not reached the ground, nor the last
curse died on his lips, 'before the whole
horde were upon us, but with a dozen
bounds and as many slashes we were all
safely out of the glade, and galloping
down the winding track which led to
the valley.
It was not until we had left the ra
vine far behind us and were right out
In the open fields that we ventured to
halt and see what Injuries we had
sustained. For me, weary and wound
ed as I was, my heart was beating
proudly and my chest was nearly burst
ing my tunic to think that I, Etienne
Gerard, had left this gang of murderers
so much by which to remember me.
My faith, they would think twice be
fore they ventured again to lay hands
upon one of the Third hussars. So car
ried away was I that I made a small
oration to these brave Englishmen and
told them who it was that they had
helped to rescue. I would have spoken
of glory also and of the sympathies of
brave men, but the officer cut me short.
"That's all right," said he, "any in
juries, sergeant?"
"Trooper Jones' horse hit with a
pistol bullet on the fetlock."
"Trooper Jones to go with us. Ser
geant Halllday with troopers Harvey
and Smith to keep to tho. right until
they touch the vtdettes of the German
hussars."
So these three Jingled away together.
while the officer and I, followed at
some distance by the trooper whose
charger had been wounded, rode
straight down In the direction of the
English camp. Very soon we had
opened our hearts, for we each liked
the. look of the other from the begin
ning. He was of the nobility, this
brave lad, and he had been sent out
scouting by Lord Wellington to see If
there were any signs or our advancing

through the mountains. It Is one ad
vantage of a wandering life like mine,
that you learn to pick up those bits
of knowledge which distinguish the
man of the world. I have, for example,
hardly ever met a Frenchman who
could repeat an English title correctly.
If I had not traveled I should not be
able to say with confidence that this
young man's real name wu Mtlor Hon.
Sir Russell Bart, this last being an
honorable distinction, so that It was as
the Bart that I usually addressed htm,
just as In Spanish one might say "the
Don."
As we rode beneath the moonlight In
the lovely Spanish night we spoke our
minds to each other, as If we were
brothers. We were both of an age, you
see, both of the light cavalry also (the
Sixteenth light dragoons was his
regiment) and both with the saine
hopes and ambition. Never have I
learned to know a man so quickly as I

called Vauxhall and for my part I
spoke to blm of little Carallo of the
