Presently they same to an o-pm rrnvp,
With the earth piled red nbout It, f r.il
two men leaning: upon their cparton. Tit.'
women with the torches stood at he:id
and foot; and when the men came un
with their burden Philip Stnndsflild
bade them cist It In and be brisk. Hut
. the men were kindlier than he, and very
gently laid the poor harried corpse In
earth. In a moment the mm were fill
ins theldndly soil, while l'hlllp Stands
field stood nllent, and the two wonvn
at hesd and foot cursed the dead with
out stop or cousins; even for a moment.
Then ITmp'nray Spurway stepped for
ward nnd bade them stny and mind
what they were dolnpf. He declared
'that he would make Buch a mutiny as
klnji and parliament would hear about
If they thus laid the body away without
crowner-law or examination. Hut
Philip Standsfleld flashed a paper be
fore his eyes and said, "There, what
ray ye to that? There Is nn order to
bury from Sir James Dalrymple of
Stair, the king's advocate!" At which,
much dashed In spirit and astonished,
there remained nought for us to do but
to betake ourselves homeward.
It was upon the night of the Tuesday
that I was apnln waked out of my
Bleep for In these days there w: ri
nought but nlsrht- alarms by three of
the officers of the government f:m
Edinburgh, who had brought two
chirurglons of the most distinguished
In the city, together with an order from
the privy council for the raising and
examining of the body of Sir James.
So right gladly Mr. Spurway and I
went our ways with them to be wit
nesses. The chlrurglons and the offi
cers would not permit us tr come ne.ir
when they set about to examlnj fl."
body, but made us stand at the kill;
entrance; to keep all else out should any
try the door.
It was nlsth the breaking of the morn-
. Ing whpn one of the surgeons suddenly
held up his hand and an officer leaped
down and out at the door like a shot.
Then every one waited, with the candles
burning low and the poor body of htm
that had been my friend again decently
covered up. It was lreary work wait
ing thus, and we heard nothing but the
drip of large raindrops on the roof
where the damp had seeped through the
trees. Then we heard the tramp of
feet and the rattle of arms without.
Umphray Spurway opened the door and
we saw a. company of his majesty's
foot-guards at the kirk yc:t. When
they came to our stance, they wheeled
light and left with clash of accouter-
"o," Sold Philip. IJlokoly, "That I Will
Not."
ment. and there, fair between the open
leaves of the door, etojd Philip Stands
Held with a king's officer oh either sldo
of him.
A little pale-foced man In a wig who
liad been the keenest about the exam
ination then went Into the precentor's
desk, and the guard brought the pris
oner into the elders' seat. There were
a couple of candles, one on either end
of the table, and the sharp-faced man
had another set on the angle of the
desk beside him.
Philip Standsfleld stood between his
guards as pale as death. Bald the lit
tle man to him: "What have you to
aay, Philip Standsfleld, why you should
Jiot be committed to stand your" trial
stor the unnatural murder of your fa
ttier?" -i cnarge jonn uen, minister, witn
the fact," said he, dowlly holding to .his
former folly. -
"John Bell?" raki the little man
doubtfully, sucking at a pen, for he was
not accustomed, as I think, to hear a
minister so spoken of, "ye mean Mr.
John Bell, minister of Morton take
care how you speak of Mm."
And that was my first Intimation
that I was In fact a minister with a
aettled charge. It was my Lord Advo
cate Dalrymple who spoke.
"I charge him with the murder!" said
Philip Standsfleld eullenly.
"Enough of this," said the advocate,
"T eharce von. Phrtlln KtnnrtanM urith
cruel parricide, and these two women
licre." '
Wlith a wave of his hand he caused
the guard to bring in the wretched
women who Iwid danced at the mid
night burial. Now they stood weeping
and wrinclnz their hands calling on
heaven to witness their Innocence.
"I call you not guilty as this desper
ate man Is guilty," said the advocnite,
"but I will prove the extents of your
guilt out of the mouth' of your Inno
cent children, and if ye confess your
punishmenit shall be light."
Then In that kirk of Morham there
was a scene to wrtng tears from hearts
of stone. The candles burned dim and
low. The light of morning came strug-
tfllnfl 4n mjfllrlncr 4h whtto wrnnnlnir
Sheets and mort-cloths very ghastly,
the chlntrglon's horrid Implements ly
ing uncleanscd upon them. The two
women never ceased to wall and cry,
but in the black bitterness of his evil
heart rhillp Standsfteld " stood silent
wKh'hlB hands gripped on every side
the armed men of the guard.
I wondered greatly what they await
ed as the light came clearer and olearer.
For I was ehlverltvg and every one save
centor's desk was blue with cold. But
as fof him, he made himself a' new
point to his pen and did It carefully.
Then aftelf we had waited long there
joere brought Into the kirk two children
Irving Eacuoiler
in their night habits, looking tearfully
afraid. Nor could I Imagine for what
cause they were brought out of their
warm beds at that time xf night. But
at the first glllT of them as they came
through the doors, the women cast
their hands upwards and cried out as
In an agony: ,
"Cruel, cruel," they .raid, "to make
our balrni bear witness ugalust us!"
Then the sharp-faced man took the
bairns In hand, being a boy nnd a girl,
questioning the.il none so unkindly, but
rather as one that has suchlike of his
own and kenned the lilt of their talk.
So the little James Thomson told how
that his father and mother came home
after being gone a long season. They
went to bed and beg.in to talk to
gether, he lytn:r meantime at the foot.
They told 'how that Philip Standsfleld
had done the deed, declaring that he
shouU now be laird of all before the
morrow's morn, ai d that then he ride
In their skirt.- that haJ been 111 to him,
and how hj had promised them great
reward fcr helping him to cast the
body Into the water so that It ml;ht
appear that his father had been
drowned.
8 the Ud fpoke, and when his father
and mother reproached him, he kneeled
down In the kirk there and besought
them with tears ruimlng down his face
to confe?', but, being hardened, they
would r.ot for all his asking.
It wan r'.Ill .nore piteous when little
Ar.i a Mnrk. that was daughter to the
lM woman Janet Johnson, a bairn of
bu; r.lne year or thereby, with yellow
hair ar. t much of it running every way
down her back, came forward. Being
so little th:?y had, perforce, to give her
a footstool to stand upon.
Put all she could say was "Dlnna
hurt my rr.lnnte, braw man. dlnna hurt
my mlnnle!"
Pit It Is a stranse thing that though
the woman was such an 111 wreatch, she
had not been 111 to the bairn. But the
child loved her and that greatly. And
Dalrymple looked upon Anna Mark
and said, ".No, no, little lass, your
mother's life Fhall not be hurt because
of you. Cut If ye will tell what your
mi'ther 'aid when she came home that
night she was cut late, you may help
"Are ye sure of that?" said the little
one, ceasing her tears and looking up.
"Then my mlnnle said when she cam'
home that It was all done and well
done, but not by her. She would yet
be a lady and ride In her carriage. And
the braw man that gied me the pennies
guarded the door with a drawn sword
and a pistol In his hand."
. At the word I minded that which I
had seen at the latch-hole of the door,
and my demon was made plain to me.
I was about to rise and tell my tale;
but Umphray Spurway dragged me
back by the co-.it tall. For one of the
women suddenly lifted up her hands
over her head and fell forward over
the s?at with the cry, "Oh, God! It Is
enough. It Is true, all true; I confess."
And the other also suddenly gave way
In like manner, crying, "It Is true. It Is
true: but my sin Is not unto death. Say
that my sin Is not unto death."
Then the little advocate In the desk
tork his pen between his teeth, and bun
dled up his papers. As he rose, he said
to Philip Standsfleld where he stood as
gray a3 a dead man In the light of the
morning. "Have ye anything to say?
Will ye touch your father for the test
of blood?"
"Xo," said Philip, blackly, "that'I will
not."
I'mphray Spurway came forward.
"My Lord Advocate," said he, "runs
it with your will. If the parents of these
children an? long time confined or ban
ished, that I should bind the lad ap
prentice to my trade, which Is a good
one, ar.J adept the little lass to be as
my own child In my home?"
"It la well said, I'mphray!" said the
Advocate Dalrymple, "und like your
good heart. Y are little likely to be
troubled with their forbears, at least
till they are marriage-muckle and set
tle In homes of their Own."
"Anl Rm I a free man and fully as
Boii;?, my Lord?" said I, making him a
bow as hfc camp out of Ins 0, k.
lie 1" il.fcd at mo with a qu-'er smile
that I have never yet o'.t-n to the
bo'.ti tn ( f , and made me an unswer
that v barely civil.
','Aye. Mr. Cell, ye are a free man, I
may r.y that: but not n mar, of great
wlr-lom or genre, with your evil spirits
and viHK.ns. If It had not been for
your Rcorl friend the Englishman here,
ye had vorn the hempen collar Instead
of mlnlsU-rlng to the good folks of Mor
ton." And this I etlll think to hnve been a
dlftlnctly uncivil speech of Stair's, and
when I told Prumlanrlg, my patron, ho
laughed and swore that he thought so
too.
But the eyes of the little advocate
flashed wildfire as they were turned on
Phillip Standsfleld.
"But as for you, murderer of your
father, ye shall die the death, as' I am
a true man and the king's advocate."
At this Philip Standsfleld turned on
him the gaze of a fiend. The guard
clashed out with him. In an Instant
the kirk was clear and the king's offi
cers marching up the kirk road with
the prisoners In their midst.
At the door stood Umphray Spurway
with the bairns In either hand, comfort-
"And I am o Frco Man and Fully
.: - , - Assbillje?"
Ing them.. And the sunshine came out
anil fell on the heads of us all as we
etood bare-headed.
And little Anna Mark stood and
waved her hand prettily, as a child does
to a pageant that passes by with mu
slo and banners, --when they marched
her mother out of sight forever. Doubt
less It was best for her, , JJevertheless,'
It .-brought .the , water to the eyes of
them that saw It, to see the mother
looking ever back and the young child
smiling and becking and waving her
little hand.
