CHAPTER XXIX
• Lady O1 -Lara is Triumphant
After spending a restless night,
starting' at every sound, and. hearing
the • hours 'strikg -slowly away, Lady
O'Hara arose not a whit refreshed
and considerably more 'ill at ease
'than she had been, before. .
During the night site had imagin-
ed all sorts of impossible horrors to
have befallen hey husband, and if,
when the• reassuring- d'ayligiit • had
come, the -horrors had somewhat dis-
persed, enough remained to cause her
an anxious morning'as she. alternated
between the hall • window ' and the
gate. _
No Less 'worried was Jis'Salter.. He
had returned from Tittering last
night to find his master and Sir
Miles gone, Lady. O'Hara in, a state
o1 'frightened bewilderment, and the
house in a whirl,. No one, least of
all 'pool' M,r lly, . seemed 'to know. ex-
actly where the .two then had gone.
A11 she knew was that they had come
back upon a scene of turmoil,, with
Mr. Beauleigh in the midst of a small
crowd of excited servants. 'Her hus-
band' 'had elbowed his way through,
and into his ehrs had Mr. Beauleigh
poured his story. Then O'Hara seem-
ed to catch the excitement, and she
shad' been berried into the house with
be 'hasty explanation that Jack was
o'ft after Devil, who'had. caught Diana
and he must to the rescue. Ten min-
Utes after, she had an alarming vi-
sion of him galloping off down the
drive, his .sword at his side and pis-
tols in the saddle -holsters. The poor
little lady had Sent ari imploring' cry
after him, checked almost before it
had left her lips. • Afterwards 'she
wished it had never been "uttered, and
rather hoped that it had escaped
O'Hara's ears.
Salter. arrived "not half-anhour lat-
er, and his feelings when told 'that
his beloved master liad ridden off in
search. -of a tight, may be more eas-
ily itnagined than described. He was
all for setting out in his, wake, but
her I•adyship strongly vetoed the plan
declaring that Sir.Miles would be tes-
tae enough, and• she was not going
to be left entirel3 without protectors.
Jin, was far too _respectful to point
I . that there were five , able-bodied
men, not counting 'himself, in
house, but as his master had 1 no
lnstructiona for Min, he capitulated.
He proved nought but a Job's com-
forter next day, for when my 'lady
pessimistically' premised that 'bath
Carstareg and. her husband"' Were un-
doubtedly hurt, he did not, as, she ex-
pected lie .Would, strive to reassure
her, but gave a gloomy assent. Whore -
upon ,'sire cast at indignant glaiuee in
his direction, and turned her back.
At •four'in the afternoon they were
both in the hall, anxiously watiiliing
the 'drive. _
"To ' be sure, ;'ti's monstrous' late!"
rmrnarked Molly, with wide, appre1 en -
sive eyes.

dealt ('erta121y, your
ladyship!" hastily alnend'.ed Jim
''lu fact I"should net be surprised
if they, were / Mt 'at. ail_ urt!.,..
Ilei shook' his head 'resPondently,,
but luokily Lor him the lady failed
to notice it, and .continued with airy
cheerfulness:.
"For' my husband has often told
me• what. an excellent 'swordsman Mr,
Caretares is, mice-"
"Your ladyship forgets his'wound."
What she might !lave been ,con-
strailied to reply to thisAis, not known,.
for at that,:moment game the 'sound
of coachwheels on the gravel.,With
one accord "she and Salter flew to
the door; and between ahem, wrench-
ed it open, just as a'•^ gentleman's
travellingpoach, , o postillioned. by men
in gold and black, and emblazoned
with the Wyneham arms, drew up at
the door. •
My lady was down the steps in the
twinkling of an ,eye,, •almost before
one of the grooms had opened 'the
door to offer in arm to my lord. der -
stares sprang lightly out followed by
O'Hara,' seemingly none the worse fol
wear. '
Molly ran straight •into her hus-
band's arms,. regardless of the serv-
ants, hugging".'him.
Jim Salter hurried up to my lord.
"Ye are' not hurt, sir?" be cried.
`Carstares handed liim his. hat and
cloak.
"Nought to speak' of, Jim. But 'Ev=
erard' well-nigh finished' me for -all
that!" He laughed at Jim's face of
horror, and turned to Molly, who,
having satisfied herself that her hus-
band was quite uninjured and had
never once 'been" in, danger of his lite
had come towards him,. full of solici-
tude for his shoulder. -
"Oh, my dear Jack!,Miles tells me
you have hurt your poor shoulder
again! And pray' what has been done
for it?' 1- dare swear hot one of you
great men had the wit to summon a
doctor, as indeed • you should have,
f9r•--"
"Whist now; asthore!" adjured her
husband. ,"'Tis but a clean scratcjh
after all. ' Take. him into the house
and give him something -to drink! I'll
swear 'tis' what he needs most!"
Molly •poulted, laughed and com-
plied.
Over the ale Jack related the whole
escapade up .to the moment when he
had parted from- Diana at Litfledeah.
Then. O'Hara took up the tale with a
delightful chuckle.
"Sure, Moilyp ye never saw anything
to equal poor old Beauleigif�when his'
daughter had "told him ,Jack's name!
Faith, he didn't know what. to -do at
all; he was •so excited!. And Miss
Betty I thought would have the y'a-
pours from the way. she flew from Di
to Jack and back again, in such. ,a
state of mind as ye 'can't imagine;" •
2
Molly, who had listened with round
eyes, . drew a sleep ecstatic , breath.
Then' she bounced *up, clapping her
hands, and proclaiming that she was
right after all!
"What will , ye be meaning, alan-
na?" inquired O'H'Ssa.
- "Pray,' sir, did 'I not say over and
over again that if I could h1duce Jack
to stay with us everything would
come right? Now, Miles, you know I
did;"
"I remember ye said -something. like
lit once," admitted 'her spouse. "
"Once, indeed! I vas always sure
of it. And I -did coax. you to stay,
did I not, Jack?" she appealed.
' "You did," he agreed. "You' assur-
ed me that `if I was churlish enough
to' leave, Miles vvduld slowly sicken
and pine away!"
She ignored her'husband's ribald
appreciation of this.
"Then you see that 'tis all owing
•
to me that-'-' She brake ,off to
shake O'Hara, and the meeting end-
ed in riotous hilarity.
•
When he went to change his elathes
Carstaree found Jim already in his
moth awaiting him. He hailed him
gaily, and sat down before his dress-
ing -table.
' "I require a very festive costume
to -night, Jim. Rose velvet and cream
bre,aie thinks"
' = • .:o. ,'your• lordship," was the
brim reply.
Jack clewed round. "
"What's that?"
"I understand your lordship is an'

";Now who was the tactless idiot
whet told you that? I had intended
to break the news myself. I suppose

seemed
"Yes, si-my lord. I-1 suppose ye
