CHAPTER XXIV Toatinned.
A pheasant roared up from a clump of
chinkapins, while I was still some paces
distant. The bird's wlldnens was beyond
the ordinary It must recently have been
disturbed. The ground here was harder
than usual In the Barrens, and I could find
tio trace of hoof prints, but the pheasant's
flight made me keep on hopefully.
A couple of hundred yards further on,
a growth of snaky brnrs ' scored deep
cratches across my boom I dismounted,
getting some unpleasant stabs for my
pains, and searched about among the
brambles. It was as I had hoped I dis
covered not one but three or tour shreds
of cloth In the grip of the jealous thorns.
They had been torn from Fen-las' riding
habit already pitiful enough, God knows!
It was now pretty certain that she had
ought the bay shore, and In that part of
the coast as I had learned from Sam's
directions there was but one spot whither
ha would be likely to go. The bay line
(or ten miles north and south was a wilder
ness of salt marshes and devious water
channels. At two points only, rtdrea of
pine-crowned loam thrust firm fingers Into
the bay. On of these ridges ended In Lost
Hollow. The other It had no name by
Sam's account was the place where Per
rUs might be found. I pushed straight
for it
It was no easy matter picking a way
through a forest without a trail and
through a country strange to me, but at
last I led my horse up the ridge. At sight
of me, a bluejay perched In a solitary hick,
ory began to utter Its taunting cry. The
challenge was answered by a sevtea of dis
cordant notes notes that no bird not even
a bluejay could have fathered.
Jerry, his back toward ni. was sitting
on a fa) leu pine, replying In kind.
"Is. ya. al I hear o', V ole tomcat.
I a'pect yo've scared more'n a hundred
squirrels "way from me In ye' time. If
'twa'n't yo 'twas some of yo' kin. Vo'
needn't holler at me, dad bllm yo'! Yo're
makln' s heap of noise, but yo' don't know
who's a.ualkln' up here behind me, but
Ah do." The rascal had seen me a hun
dred yards away.
I wasted no time with him. "Where is
she?" I demanded.
"Jest ovah the 'neck, sah" he replied.'
"She was theyah a llddle while ago, Mas
tail Henry."
I added my roan to the two horses he
was already holding and hurried across the
ridge. Kerrlts was standing at the very
edge of river bank, her hand at her eyes,
looking over the water. There was little
or no wind, and the sunlight sparkled back
from a bay as smooth as glass. So Intent
was she that, although my eyes had at
first been aH for her, they were forced to
follow the direction of her gaze.
Within plain sight almost within hailing
distance an oyster sloop lay becalmed.
The tide was drifltlng it - westward oft
shore, but It moved only by inches.
Of Its crew of two men, on ran busily
from helm to jib. and back to mainsail
sheet, on the alert for every breath of wind,
the other, large and broad-shouldered, sat
motionless In the stern.
Presently, as the sail Tapped listlessly
over, I saw that the larger man had one
of his legs stretched stiffly on the deck
a leg swathed In voluminous bandages.
As I gazed, a breeze came up' from sea
ward, jib and mainsail filled, lh stiff
legged man seemed to settle Into his place
I could almost hear his oath of relief
and with the smaller man at the helm the
sloop stood fair for the Delaware shore.
Lawrence Arnold and Bat Merry bad sailed
away.
Ferris turned, her hand a,tlll at her eyes,
liar slim body was framed by the brown
water her mouth drooped wistfully. She
started at me as if I were an apparition.
"You!"
"Yes, certainly I!"
"Oh!" she said. "Why have you followed
me?"
"Why not? I'd follow you around the
world."
She silenced me with her proud gesture.
"I've just resolved to leave here," she Bald,
'"to leave this part of the. country. I
haven't any more right to live on here
than they" she motioned toward the fast
vanishing sloop "than those wretched men
have."
"But why should you leave leave Mor
van, and me?"
"Cousin," she said, "my father has died
by his own hand. Oh! was it only yester
day? It seems a year. My father has
killed himself I plotted to ruin you." She
clenched her hands passionately. "Yet I'm
living upon your bounty. It kills me It
kills me! I'll beg my way about the coun
try, first."
She was not humble, as I had a right to
expect. On the contrary, she seemed fairly
to defy me. I caught her wrist with a
temper quite as high as her own.
"By Heaven, madam. You shall live
upon my bounty for as long as I like."
For a moment she faced me, frowning.
All at once she bid her face In her hands.
"Oh!" she wailed. "Oh, If my mother
could be her!"
I waa In a passion of regret. "Cousin!
My dear lady! Ferrlss! I kixsed the
shielding hands.
"Oh, no," she said. "Oh, no."
"Why not?" I cried. "Ferris, I lov you
with all my heart."
"How can you after
"Ah, but I do. Ferrlss, will, you marry
me?"
She ' stared at me with bated breath.
"Marry you? 1? Never never."
"I'll make you lov me."
"I do now," she said simply. "But your
wife? It would be monstrous. My father!
he was buried only yesterday, too."
"Yes, but you've said yourself It seems
a year since, if we love each otber. Isn't
that enough?"
The gray eyes looked me through. "Yes
It la enough," she said, and burst out sob
bing. I took her by the shoulders with both
hands.
"You'll marry me?' , .
"Yes."
When? Now? Today?
"Yes, If you want me very much."
CHAPTER XXV.
Tom Bell.
Often since that day I have wondered if
the sight of her, weeping, blushing and
trembling before me, would alone have
served , to arouse In me the honor I had
almost strangled.
I had gained the point toward which,
whether censciously or not, I had been
aiming ever since I bad first seen the
veiled Lady of the 8pur In Pole Tavern.
That proud head was bent the gray eyes
were tear-wet for me. Yet even as I waa
about to draw her close, heart to heart
and mouth to mouth, a horror of myself
turnud me cold.
Would I have confessed all. without
ether prompting than thst of her lovely
Innocence? I vow I do not know. By some
high grace I was not left to decide for my.
self. For as I turned my sick eyas from
the girl to the forest behind her, a man
stood up In the middle of a clump of
cedars, as If summoned by art-magic. It
waa Link! .
For a moment my startled gas met his
to my bewildered mind he was Ilk an
apparition from another world then h

sank back Into cover.
I held Ferrlss from me, and looked at
her long so long that the hopelessness In
my eyes grew Into her own, and the red
of her cheeks turned (-lowly to white.
"Ferrlss," I said thickly.
"les," she whispered. "What Is It?
Are you 111, dear?"
It took all my manhood to go on. "Not
In the body, but In soul. Listen and don't
think me mud. I speak the Boberest truth.
God knows what injury I've done you! I
pray It be but little. But I've loved you
so much that I've been In a dreadful
dream."
She laid her head an Instant against my
cheek. "I don't understand," she said.
"I know I love you."
"Don't make It too hard for me," I
begged.
I stepped a pac from her, and drew a
paper from my breast the hand-bill pro
claiming one, Tom Bell, highwayman
"Read that! Then look look at me!"
When she had read, she gazed at me un
comprehendlngly. "Do you understand?" I said dully.
"It describes a man who must look ridi
culously like you. But what has such a
resemblance to do with -"
"A resemblance!" I said, my tone dreary
beyond all hope. "Miss Dayton, 1 are Tom
Bell."
"Henry!"
"No, no! I'm not Henry Morvan. I'm
an Impostor! I'm Tom Bell the man who's
published her Ob. I've fooled all the
world, and could laugh at It, but I can't
persuade myself to fool you any longer."
She - made an Inarticulate sound.
"Listen," I went on. "I'm gently born and
bred, and my family was well known In
East Jersey, years ago. But I was left
on orphan at 16, with nobody but a guar
dian to look after me. No, let me go on.
"tight years ago 1 was a wild lad of 20,
and eight years ago I waa convicted of rob.
blng Sir Geoffrrey Walton, th British am
bassador to this country robbing him by
night at the pistol's point. It's useless to
say I wasn't guilty every felon says as
much. I was convicted and sentenced to
be hanged. But at the eleventh hour I
was pardoned. I was sent out of the state
with orders never to return. I was
only 20."
"A boy a little boy!" N
"In the west I met Henry Morvan the
real one. We grew to be great friends.
He died In my arms of prairie fever two
months since. I cam here. I Intended
only to give th proofs of his death to his
lawyers, then to go Into hiding is the
marsh islands. Then I saw you, and the
world changed for me,"
"And for me," she said.
"I've played the vllllaln, but Henry Mor
van told me that Brum was the heir. . In
his last Illness, he'd forgotten you and
your father. Morvan lamented to in that
Bram should Inherit the property. When
I took Morvan's name I dldn t dream of
harming anyone but Bram. Afterward, 1
found it was you, but I couldn't give it
up It and you."
She made a sudden peremptory gesture,
"l'ou! Tom Bell, the hlghwuyman? 1
don't believe It!"
Again I put my hand to my breast.
"You've seen the picture of Henry Mor
van's father, in the library In the manor
house? Then look at this one of Henry
Morvan himself." I thrust a miniature
into her fingers. "Compare that with your
recollection of his father's picture then
compare both with me."
She stared at the miniature. The face ot
a young man smiled gravely up at her
a face like mine at first glance, yet upon
closer Inspection, very different.
I saw incredulity change to wonder as
she gazed. Then wonder grew to fear, and
fear to conviction. And then I could look
no more, but stood with hanging head.
After what seemed a long time, I felt a
timid hand upon my arm. "Dear I don't
believe it."
"It's true."
"Oh, you may be Tom Bell a name's
nothing but a highwayman, never!''
"Ferrlss! Your saying that will always
be a comffort to me wherever I am."
Sh gav a little frightened cry. "You're
not going away?"
"I must."
"You refuse to marry me, then?"
"Angel!" I cried. "You dos't know what
you're saying. A convicted highwayman
marry the heiress of Morvan! Th law for
bids it Besides, you must hat m at
this moment for what I've done."
"You know I don't. Stay, and be the
Squire of Morvan with me. Or If you go,
I shall go with you."
"No," I said. "I love you too well Ho
shume you."
At that moment Link's voice, very low
and penetrating, sounded from the thicket.
"Captain! captain!"
Ferrlss faced the sound, her eyes wide.
"What Is it, Link?" 1 demanded.
"Four men, with guns, comin' up the
'neck.' Too quiet about It. Saw 'am
fresh caps on, too. Looks bad."
Apathy a dreary Indifference held me
motionless.
"Very well," I said.
"But, captain, "I tell you it looks bad."
His voice took a hurried note. "Her they
come. Run this way for your horse, cap
tainI'll hold 'em back a minute. Run
for your horses you and the lady! You
can make the Island by tomorrow morn
ing." "Yes, yes!" cried Ferrlss. "Run run!
WIUi me!" She hud actually seized my
arm and was hurrying me toward the
forest.
I came to a halt and fell a pace from
her. "No, no. Life's not so sweet to me
that I'll spoil yours."
