or ROGUES
(Contlnoedfrom last week.)
"Cannot you guess? Surely she must
have given you some hint of her pur
poses, for 'twas in Her mind, as I learn,
when she agreed to leave England and
come hither. "
"Nothing we know nothing, lal-
ters Dawson. " Tis all mystery ana
darkness. Only we did suppose to find
happiness a-wandering about the coun
try, dancing and idling, as we did be
fore." That dream was never hers," an
swers the don. "She never thought to
And happiness in idling pleasure. 'Tis
the joy of martyrdom she's gone to
find, seeking redemption In self sacri
fice." ' :
"Be more explicit, sir, I pray," says I.
"In a word, then, she has gone to
offer herself as a ransom for the real
Judith Godwin. "
We wore overwrought for great as
tonishment Indeed my chief surprise
was that I had not foreseen this event
In Moll's desire to return to Elche or
hit upon the truth in seeking an expla
nation of hor disappearance. Twas of a
piece with her natural romantio dispo
sition and her newly awaked sense oi
poetic justice, for here at one stroke she
makes all human atonement for her
fault and ours earning her husband's
forgiveness by this proof, dearest love,
and winniuu back forever an honored
place in his remembrance. And I be
thought me of our Lord's saying that
greater love is there none than this
that one shall lay down his life for an
other. For some time Dawson stood silent,
his arms folded upon his breast and his
head bent in meditation, his lips pressed
together and every muscle in his face
contracted with pain and laboring
thought. Then, raising his head and fix
ing his eyes on the don, he says :
"If, I understand aright, my Moll
hath gone to give horself up for a slave
in the place of her whose name she
took."
The don assents with a grave inclina
tion of his head, and Dawson continues :
"I ask your pardon for that injustice
I did you in my passion, but now that I
am cool I cannot hold you blameless for
what has befallen my poor child, and I
call upon you as a man of honor to re
pair the wrong you've done me. "
Again the don bows very gravely and
then asks what we would have him do.
"I ask yon," says Dawson, "as we
have no means for such an expedition,
to send me across the sea there to my
Moll." ,
"I cannot insure your return," Bays
the don, "and I warn you that once in
Barbary you may never leave it. "
I do not want to return if she is
there. Nay," adds he, "if I may move
them to any mercy, they shall do what
they will with this body of mine, so
that they suffer my child to be free.
The don turns to Sidi and tells him
what Dawson has offered to do, where
upon the Moor lays his finger across his
lips, then his hand on Dawson's breast
and afterward upon his own, with a rev
erence, to show his respect. And so he
and the don fall to discussing the feasi
bility of this project, as I discovered by
picking up a word here and there, and,
ended, the don turns to Dawson
and tells him. there is no vessel to con
vey him at present, wherefore he must
of force wait patiently till one comes in
from Barbary
"But," says he, "we may expeot one
in a few days, and be assured that your
wish shall be gratified if it is possible.
We went down, Dawson and I, to the
sea that afternoon, and sitting on the
Bhore at that point where we had for
merly embarked aboard the Algerine
galley we scanned the waters for a sail
that might be coming hither, and Daw
son with the eagerness of one who
looked to escape from slavery rather
than one seeking it
As we sat watching that sea he fell
a-regretting he had no especial gift of
nature by which he might more readily
purchase Moll's freedom of her captors.
"However," says he, "if I can show
em the use of chairs and benches, for
lack of which they are now compelled,
as we see, to squat on mats and bench
es, I may do pretty well with Turks of
tho better sort who can afford luxuries
and so in time gain my end. "
"You shall teach me this business,
Jack," says I, "for at present I'm more
helpless than you. "
"Kit," says he, laying hold of my
hand, "let us have no misunderstanding
on this matter. You go not to Barbary
with me."
"What 1" cries I, protesting. "You
would have the heart to break from me
after we have shared good and ill for
tune together like two brothers all these
years?"
"God knows we shall part with sore
hearts o' both sides, and I shall miss
you sadly enough, with no Christian to
speak to out there. But 'tis not of our
selves we must think now. x Some one
must be here to be a father to my Moll
when she returns, and I'll trust Don
Sanchez no farther than I can see him,
for all his wisdom. So, as you love the
dear girl, you will stay here, Kit, to be
her watch and ward, and as you love
me you will spare me any further dis
cussion on this head. For I am re
solved." I would say nothing then to contrary
him, but my judgment and feeling both
revolted againBt his decision. For,
thinks I, if one Christian is worth but
j a irroat to the Turk, two must ba worth

iigntpence ; therefore we together stand
a better chance of buying Moll's free
dom than either singly. And, for my
own happiness, I would easier be a
slave in Barbary with Jack than free
elsewhere and friendless. Nowhere can
a man be free from toil and pain of
some sort or another, and there is no
such solace in the world for one's dis
comforts as the company of a true man.
But I was not regardless of Moll's
welfare when she returned neither. For
I argued with myself that Mr. Godwin
had but to know of her condition to find
means of coming hither for her succor.
So the next time I met Don Sanchez I
took him aside and told him of my con
cern, asking him the speediest manner
of sending a letter to England (that I
had inclosed in mine to the. don having
missed him through his leaving Toledo
before it arrived).
"There is no occasion to write," says
he. "For the moment I learned your
history from Sidi I sent a letter appris
ing him of his wife's innocence in this
business and the noble reparation she
had made for the fault of others ; also
I took the liberty to inclose a sum of
money to meet his requirements, and
I'll answer for it he is now on his way
hither. For no man living could be dull
to the charms of his wife or bear resent
ment to her for an act that was prompt
ed by love rather than avarice and with
no calculation on her part.
This cheered me considerably and
did somewhat return my faith in Don
Sanchez, who certainly was the most
extraordinary gentlemanly rascal that
ever lived.
Day after day Dawson and I went
down to the sea, and on the fifth day of
our watching (after many false hopes
Day after day Dawson and I went down
10 me sea.
and disappointments) we spied a ship,
which we knew to be of the Algerine
sort by the cross set of its lateen sails
making it to look like some great bird
with spread wings on the water bear
ing down upon the shore.
We watched the approach of this ship
with feverish joy and expectation, for
though we dared not breathe our hopes
one to anotner we ootn tnougnt tnat
maybe Moll was there. And this was
not impossible. For, supposing Judith
was married happily, she would refuse
to leave her husband, and her mother,
having lived so long in that country,
might not care to leave it now and quit
her daughter, so might they refuse their
ransom and Moll be sent back to us,
And besides this reasoning we had that
clinging belief of the unfortunate that
some unforeseen accident might turn to
our advantage and overthrow our fears.
The Algerine came nearer and nearer
until at length we could make out cer
tain figures moving upon the deck ; then
Dawson, laying a trembling hand on
my sleeve, asked if I did not think
'twas a woman standing in the fore
part, but I couldn't truly answer yes,
which vexed him.
But, indeed, when, the galley was
close enough to drop anchor, being at
, some distance from the shore because of
the shoals, I could not distinguish any
woman, and my heart sank, for I knew
well that if Moll were there she, Beeing
us, would have given us some signal of
waving a handkerchief or the lika As
soon as the anchor was cast a boat was
being lowered, and being manned drew
in toward us ; then truly we perceived
a bent figure sitting idle in the stern,
hut even Dawson dared not venture to
think it might be MolL
The boat running on a shallow,
couple of Moors stepped into the water,
and lifting the figure in their arms oar-
ried it ashore to where we 6tood. And
now we perceived 'twas a woman muf
fled up in the Moorish fashion, a little,
wizened old creature, who, casting back
her head clothes, showed us a wrinkled
faoe, very pale and worn with care and
age. Regarding us, she says in plain
English:
"You are my countrymen. Is one of
you named Dawson?"
"My name is Dawson," says Jack.
She takes his hand in hers, and hold
ing it in hers looks in his face with
great pity, and then at last, as if loath
to tell the news she sees he fears to
hear, she says :
"I am Anne Godwin."
What need of more to let us know
that Moll had paid her ransom?

merchandise while the first returned, etc.
"I can feel for you," says Mrs. God
win at length, addressing Dawson, "for
I ako have lost an only child."
Your daughter Judith, madam?"
says L
"She died two years ago. Yours still
lives," says she, again turning to Daw-
f - ' o ' ' j
son, who sat with a haggard face, rock- j
ing mmsell like one nursing a great
pain. "And while there is life there's
hope, as one says."
"Why, to be sure,' says Jack, rous
ing himself. ,"This is no more, Kit,
than we bargained for. Tell me, mad
am, you who know that country, do
you think a carpenter would be held in
esteem there? I'm yet a strong man, as
yon see, with some good serviceable
years of life before me. D'ye think
they'd take me in exchange for my
Moll, who is but a bit of a girl?"
"She is beautiful, and beauty counts
for more than strength and talent there,
poor man, " says she.
"I'll make 'em the offer," says he,
"and though they do not agree to give
her freedom they may yet suffer me to
see her time and again if I work welL "
" 'Tis strange," says she. "Your
child has told me all your history. Had
I learned it from other lips I might
have set you down for rogues, destitute
of heart or conscience; yet, with this
evidence before me, I must needs regard
you and your dear daughter as more no
ble than many whose deeds are writ in
gold. '.Tis a lesson to teach me faith in
the goodness of God, who redeems his
creatures' follies with one touch of love.
Be of good cheer, my friend," adds she,
laying her thin hand on his arm.
"There is hope. I would not have ac
cepted this ransom no, not for your
daughter's tears and entreaties with
out good assurance that I, in my turn,
might deliver her. "
I asked the old gentlewoman how
this might be accomplished.
"My niece," says she, dwelling on
the word with a smile, as if happy in
the alliance, "my niece, coming to Bar
bary of her free will, is not a slave like
those captured in warfare and carried
there by force. She remains there as a
hostage for me and will be free to re
turn when I send the price of my ran
som."
"Is that a great sum?"
"Three thousand gold ducats about
1,000 English."
"Why, madam," says Dawson, "we
have nothing, being now reduced to our
last pieces. And if you have the good
ness to raise this money heaven only
knows how long it may be ere you suc
ceed. 'Tis a fortnight's journey at the
least to England, and then you have to
deal with your steward, who will seek
only to put obstacles in your way, so
that six weeks may pass ere Moll is re
deemed, and what may befall her m
the meantime?"
"She, is safe. Ali Oukadi is a good
man. She has naugnt 10 iear wane sue
m l i Jt 1 ! 1 !
is under his protection. Do not mis
Judge the Moors. They have many esti
mable qualities. "
"Yet, madam," says I, "by you say
ing there is hope I gather there must be
also danger."
"There is," answers she, at which
Jack nods with conviction. "A beauti
ful young woman is never free from
danger. " (Jack assents again. ) "There
are good and bad men among the Moors
as among other people. "
"Aye, to be sure," says Dawson.
"I say she is safe under the protec
tion of Ali Oukadi, but when the ran
som is paid and she leaves Thadviir she
may stand in peril"
"Why, that's natural enough," ones
Dawson, "be she among Moors or no
Moors ; 'tis then she will most need a
friend to serve her, and one that knows
the ins and outs of the place and how
to deal with these Turks must surely be
better than any half dozen fresh landed
and raw to their business." Then he
fell questioning Mrs. Godwin as to how
Moll was lodged, the distance of Ihad
viir from Algiers, the way to get there
and divers other particulars, which, to
gether with his eager, cheerful vivacity,
showed clearly enough that he was more
firmly resolved than ever to go into Bar
bary and be near Moll without delay.
And presently leaving me with Mrs.
Godwin he goes down to the captain of
the galley, who is directing the landing
of goods from the playboat, ana with
such small store of words as he pos
sessed, aided by plentiful gesture, he
enters into a very lively debate with
him, the upshot of which was that the
captain tells him he shall start the next
morning at daybreak, if there be but a
puff of air, and agrees to carry him to
Algiers for a couple of pieces (upon
which they clap hands), as Dawson, in
high glee, informs us on his return.
And now, Kit," says he, "l must
go back to Elche to borrow those samp
two pieces of Don Sanchez, so 1 pray you,
madam, excuse me."
But just then the train of mules from
Elche appears, and with them Sidi
ben Ahmed, who, having information
of Mrs. Godwin coming, brings a litter
for her carriage, at the same time beg
ging her to accept his hospitality as the
true friend of her niece MolL So we all
return to Elche together, and none so
downcast as I at the thought of losing
my friend, and speculating on the mis
chances that might befall him, for I did
now begin to regard him as an ill fated
man, whose best intentions brought him
nothing but evil and misfortune.
Being come to Elche, Don Sanchez
presented himself to Mrs. Godwin with
all the dignity and calm assurance in
the world, and though she received him
witn a very cold, distant demeanor, as
being tho deepest rascal of us all and
the one most to blame, yet it ruffled
him never a bit, but he carried himself
as if he had never benefited himself a
penny by his roguery and at her expense.
On Dawson asking him for the loan
, - T
. "77
banded him his purse, advising him the
first thing lie did on arriving at Algiers
to present himself to the dey and pur
i chase a firman, giving him protection
during his stay in Barbary (which he
' said might be done for a few silver duc
ats). Then after discussing apart with
; Sidi he comes to Mrs. Godwin, and says
V. Q
oe;
Madam, with your sanction my
friend Sidi ben Ahmed will charge Mr,
1 Dawson with a letter to Ali Oukadi,
' promising to pay him the sum of 3,000
1 gold ducats upon your niece being safely
conducted hither within the space of
three weeks."
"Senor." answers she, "I thank Sidi
Va A1.H.nJ HAMvnnnlif an irnn olar. "
adds she, overcoming her compunctions,
"for this offer. But unhappily I cannot
hope to have this sum of money in so
short a time."
"It is needless to, say, madam," re
turns he, with a scrape, "that in mak
ing this proposal I have considered of
this difficulty. My friend has agreed to
take my bond for the payment of this
sum when it shall be convenient to you
to discharge it."
Mrs. Godwin accepted this arrange
ment with a profound bow, which con
cealed the astonishment it occasioned
her. But she drew a long breath, and I
perceived she cast a curious glance at
all three of us, as if she were marveling
at the change that must have taken
place in civilized countries since her
absence, which should account for a
pack of thieves nowadays being so very
unlike what a pack of thieves was in
her young days.
CHAPTER XXXVII.
Having written his letter, Sidi ben
Ahmed proposed that Mrs. Godwin
should await the return of Moll before
setting out for England, very graciously
offering her the hospitality of his house
meanwhile, and this offer she willingly
accepted. And now, there being no rea
son for my staying in Elche, Dawson
gladly agreed I should accompany him,
the more so as I knew more of the Moors'
language than he. Going down with us
to the water side, Don Sanchez gave us
some very good hints for our 'behavior
in Barbaryr bidding us, above every
thing, be very careful not to break any
of the laws of that country. "For,"
says he, "I haye seen three men hanged
there for merely casting a Turk into the
sea in a drunken frolic."
"Be assured I'll touch nothing but
water for my drink," says Dawson,
S5in, "to
pay for all you have, and take not so
much as an orange irom a tree by tne
wayside without first laying a fleece -or
two on the ground. I warn you that
they, though upright enough among
themselves, are crafty and treacherous
toward strangers, whom they regard as
their natural enemies, and they will
tempt you to break the law either by
provoking a quarrel or putting you to
some unlawful practice, that they may
annul your firman and claim you as con
victed , outlaws for their slaves. For
stealing a pullet I have seen the flesh
beaten off the soles of an English sailor's
feet and he and his companions con'
demned to slavery for life.
"I'll lay a dozen fleeces on the ground
for everv sour orange I may take, "says
Dawson. "And, as for quarreling,
a
a
Turk shall pull my nose before ever
curse shall pass my lips."
With these and other exhortations
and promises we parted, and lying
aboard that night we set sail by day
break the next morning, having a very
fair eale off the land, and no ships in
the world being better than these gal
leys for swiftness we made an excellept
eood nassasie. so that ere we conceived
ourselves half over the voyage we sight
ed Algiers, looking like nothing but a
great chalk quarry for the white houses
built up the side of the hilL
We landed at the mole, which is a
splendid construction some 1,500 feet or
thereabouts in length (with the forts),
forming a beautiful terrace walk sup
ported by arches, beneath which large,
splendid magazines, all the most hand
some in the world, I think. Thence our
captain led us to the Cassanabah, a huge,
heavy, square, brick building, surround
ed by high, massive walls and defended
by 100 pieces of ordnance, cannons and
mortars, all told. Here the dey or ba
shaw lives with his family, and below
are many roomy offices for the discharge
of business. Our captain takes us into a
vast waiting hall where over 100 Moors
were patiently attending an audience of
the dey's minister, and there we also
might have lingered the whole day and
gone away at night unsatisfied (as many
of these Moors do, day after day, but
that counts for nothing with these en
during people), but having a hint from
our friend we found occasion to slip a
ducat in the hand of a go between offi
cer, who straightway led us to his mas
ter. Our captain having presented us,
with all the usual ceremonies, the gran
dee takes our letter from Sidi ben Ah
med, reads it, and without further ado
signs and seals us a trader's pass for 28
days, to end at sunset the day after the
festival of Ramadan. With this paper
we went off in high glee, thinking that
28 hours of safe conduct would have
sufficed us. ' And so to an. feww.
'S7ie l safe."
-1.itW tr"tt our inciKiiy captain
to th lt, and growing hfs palm aUo
for his g""fl wrUH parted ia mighty
good humor oil both sides.
By this time it was getting preuy
late in tho day; nevertlielcMS we burned
with such impatience to be near or.r
dear Moll that we set forth for Thad
viir, which lies upon the seacoast alxjut
seven English leagues east of Algiers.
But a cool, refreshing air from the sea
and the great joy in our hearts made
this journey seem to us the most de
lightful of our lives. And indeed, after
passing througn ice . suduios ncmy
planted with gardens, and crossing the
river, on which are many mills, and so
coming into the plain of Mettegia, there
is such an abundance of sweet odors and
lovely fertile views to enchant the
senses that a dull man would be inspir-
ri a baxinv. cheerful mood.
