CHAPTER • XXIV
Mr. William Shakespeare rose ear -
Ir fly, after- a 'troubled night. Throughout
its interitinable 'watches iii mind
bad been dominated by the necessity
of keeping the falconer and thefugi-
t tires ,aware It was • almost eertadn
that the man' would recognize his
yq g -mistress. And if this came to
pass, • she" would learn at once, her
'' father's tragic periL
Soon or late, the news; would have
to be told her. At least,, that was the
view. Shakespeare, had now come to
hold.. But this was not the season for
the. Constable's daughter to learn
what had • happened. As the play-
wilght had lain sleepless that night
in his bed, with the eager brain rac-
ing course -like over the whole mat-
ter, the core of a plan had come to

The piay".wright was toe astute ee
, en 'to tell Iturbage of the fantastic•
scheme that had come lo lurk in his
mend. But he lost no time in giving
Anne a copy of the play to read. She
declared herself enchanted by it. It
wae, not then, however, that he yen=
. tared to reveal to her•his design. And
in• the me5,,ntime, perils were multi-
plying. .
The man •Grisewood remained three
days in the privacy: of his chamber,
suffering much pain during that' time
in his disabled .arm. And when at
last he emerged with his wound dress-
ed in bandages, he.hovered about the
tuvern like a brooding and ageneful
,presence. If ever a man might be
said to be biding his hour in order
to work mischief, this' "was• be. Yet
for the present, it was little he could
accomplish. 'Moreover, he wag• con-
strained to keep a' civil tongue in 'his
head, since Richard Burbage, who
was no respecter of persons, was fain
Ito inform him that the horse -trough
was still likely to be his academy; of
manners.
Grisewood, it appeared, had come
to Oxford for a particular purpose.
That irurpos•e, was to seek out Simon
Heriot, his partner in infamy. He
wished to. inform -him of the prison-
er's escape, which was not generally
known to the world, add incidentally
to learn what,'prospect there was of
being able to replenish a depletedex-
chequer. This indeed was its perm-
anent condition so far as. •Sir Robert
Grisewood was concerned. But now
that his foul work *as 'accomplished
he looked to it to provide a source of
revenue for many years to come.
In the course of the day 'Grisewood
chanced to inquire of John Davenant,•
in the falconer's hearing,• whether he
could direct hit to .Greenfield Manor,
the house of Simon Heriot. The fal-
conerattention' was attracted, and
presently he 'entered into conversa-
tion with Grisewood. Both, men, 'at
first, were not a little wary of each
other. The 'business of neither en-
abled them to open their hearts to a
chem
acquaintance, but a few can-
tious questions judiciously answered
were enough to prove their common
interest in a matter which concerned
them both very deeply.
Grisewood had more cunning, and
therefore less frankness, than• the fal-
coner. Thus he asked questions ra-
ther than answered them. And it
was not. long before he had learned
the nature of the falconerrs;mission.
Markham, to be sure, was very loth
to tell his story• But once upon the
track of it, Grisewood was not a man
to 'be gainsaid. 'On a' pretence of 'be-
ing able 'to tell far more than he
knew, he drew the main' particulars,'
word by word, out of the reluctant
falconer. ' Thus he learned the man-
ner. of Gervasd Heriot'stescape, and
how the I fugitive` was. roaming the
'countryside in the company - of. Sir
John Feversham's daughter.
This was 'high and -strange news
for'Grisewood. Indeed, Markham was
one of the very few who knew this
fact. Not even the Queen herself
was aware of it.
• Had Markham 'been in a mood less
desperate, he would not have divulg-
ed the share of his young mistress in
the`•prisoner's escape. But this man
-had affected to, know far more of the
matter than, in point of fact, he did
knew;;, besides, the falconer did not
see how any words or. any act of his
Gould make' the affair ,more terrible
than it was. His one desire was to
overtake the fugitives in order that
he might inform his young mistress
of -her father's, dire peril. 'This was
him. •. It was little mere than a spa
dew' at present. It had yet to, talre
shape, yet to acquire a •hue,..of reality
but it might be that under Providence
it would develop into a scheme that
could offer some hope of their delle
erance. 'Yet he musthave time in
'which ,to m'atere it; 'and if by a aid'is-
chance the 'fugitives learned at thia
'1
'Moment 'Sir John Feversiham's peril',
nothing was more likely than that a
self-sacrificing impulse .Would uld cause
•thein to give themselves' up to Justice
before anything could be done to help
them. '
MI that day the falconer hung dis-
consolate about -the Crown Tavern.
There wase reason to believe ,that the
fugitives were still in the vicinity of
Oxford, but for the 'time being all fur-
ther trace„ df them had failed. A num-
ber of perms, in ,,and about the town
appeared to have seen the young gyp-
sies. Among others, "'Jdhn Davenant,
the landlord of the Crown, had a clear
recollection of having seen them ear-
ly the previous day, on the bench out-
side the' tavern door. They could not
be far away, yet for the present the
falconer's inquiries yielded• no result.
,Shakespeare was careful to keep
Gervese and Anne out of the man's
way. ,He hardly, let them out of his
sight, an.d during the performance
that afternoon they, were given a se-
cluded corner in one of the galleries
where they could enjoy the play with-
out being seen by the audience.
The piece was ;'Romeo and• Juliet,”
and its success _wee as great as that,
which had been gained on the pre-
vious day by "The Merchant of Ven-
ice." News of that brilliant perform-
ance had spread, so that the press, in
the inn yard was greater than ever,
there being hardly room, to squeeze
another soul 'inside. This play was
finely acted, and it was received, with
bursts of rapturous- •applause.
It was phrt of the. scheme that was
being 'formed in Shakespeare's, mind
that Anne :should play Rosalind be-
fore the Queen. He knew that such
an innovation would be 'perilous, and
he foresaw that it would arouse .the
opposition ofehie colleagues. But that
shy and slender grace was the ideal
of his fancy. Hee 'knew now that it
was the sight of her, in hawking diese
in the tailor's shop that had set his
mine, upon the forest of Arden. Par-
fiete' was an efficient actor, 'but no
member of the company could have

By this means the falconer hoped' to
rid himself of the Stain •• of his-, mas-
ter's blood,
As' soon as Grisewood' 'had heard
the falconer's :story he 'brought the
whole force of his ei ening mind to
hear • matter,
' aitor
and Sirupon Johnthe's young• �dauglhter in 9,
"You say, myfriend, this trailer
boy's dress ' are roaming the country
4n the' guise up -gypsies?"
"That I do," said Markham.
Grisewood strove toamplify in his
mind a picture the falconer's-. story
had conjured' up in it. At last • lie
was able to do this.
"Bel Goc}'s life!" he said, "that was
the pair oe vagabonds I saw in the
company of that accursed 'play -actor
at the tavern door on the morning I
came here." •
"Why do you call him accursed?"
said Markham, remembering with a
'pang that this player was a man in
whom he had already confided.
"Why 'do I call him accursed•?" said
Grisewood. "All, the world knows
him for. a notorious rogue, as are all
men of his sort. • And' I'll wager a
golden angel 'he is concealing these
fugitives in order "to serve some pur-
pose of his; own.='
"But why should he conceal them,"
said the falconer, "when there is 'a
large sum on the head of 'Mr. Her -
lot?"
"A large sum, eh! The rogue may
not know that."
It was more to the purpose, per-
haps, that t'he rogue who spoke had
not known it. He grew.silent. ` In
this business he must go cautiously
indeed.' It might be possible for one
whe. lived by his wits, to take profit
from this strange business. At least,
in his own mind, he was reasonably
sure of two things. The first was
that the fugitives' were near at hand,
the other that the play -actor was in
a position • to throw Tight `on their
whereabouts.
'The effect of thisconversation was
to keep Sir Robert Grisewood very
wideawake, and also to implant the
seed of distrust in the mind of Mark-
ham. It might be, after all, that the
player was not so open and honest
as he seemed. At any rate, the fal-
coner determined to watch him nar-
rowly. With that end in view he
marked all that Shakespeare. • did.
And, he soon 'found more food for his
suspicions.
Closeobservation of the player's
comingsandgoings-enabled- Markham-
to learn that there was a certain
room in the upper part of the inn,
which claimed a large share of his
attention. 'Much of Shakespeare's•
time was spent in it. Another person
who had recourse to it was a certain'
tall man 'profusely endowed with a
beard .end moustachios, said to be a
foreigner, • who bad lately joined the
Lord. 'Chamberlain's, Company, He
wasreputed to be a swordsman of
much skill, and in proof of it he had
lately given' Grisewood a thrust
through the arm.
The falconer was able to learn that.
this man, an Italian who went by
the name of BandineIlo, had 'a son.
And although he -,•••too, had joined the
Lord Chamberlain's Company, and
was staying at the Crown, Markham
found it impossible to get a sight of
him_,,. For one thing, .neither of these
Italian;5s took their meals with the
rest of the players in the dining -par-
lor, but as the falconer contrived to
learn, these were served to them in
this upper chamber.
This' fact deepened Maekham's sus-
picions. He did not 'think;' -well, how-
ever,^ to confide them to Grisewood.
Inquiry of the landlord had been suf-
ficient to fix d very evil •reputation
upon the man. And it had also serv-
ed, in a measure, to reassure 'Mark-
ham in respect of the player. The
landlord, who seemed a shrewd -and
honest fellow enough, hal no hesita-
tion in affirming that William Shake-
speare was a very upright man.
('Continued Next Week)
In view of the approaching swim-'
' mese ,season, the Ineestrlal. ,accident;
Prevention Associations have sent jhT
dustrY a special 'bulletin dealing With
•artificial respiration by the prone:.
pressure method. - C
The A,ssoci:ahionS point out, . "RSI
euseitatien, is not ;something which:.
can be read about after • a body hens
been pulled from the water dr after
a person has been rescued from a g,,•
filled room—resuscitation •should be
learned in advance and practised."
The timely poster, • designed for
plant bulletin 'boards, illustrates pre-
liminary and general rules of arti-
ficial respiration.
Here are the preliminary 'rules:
Drowning. --Quickly remove victim
from the water and piece on •ground
or other •hard surface. If possible
have head slightly lower than the
rest of the body, •so that water and
other liquids will drain away from
the victim.'
Gas Asphyxiation.—The first thing
to do is to .get the patient into, fresh
air quickly. Fresh Or does not mean
out of doorsin cold weather. Do not
breathe gas yourself, even ..:for a
short' time; if it does not• overeethe
you it will cut down your strength.
Electric Shock.—The victim must
be freed from the contact as 'prompt-
ly as ,pes'sible, Use 'a dry stick, dry
rope, dry coat or other non-conduc-
tor. The use of ,your own hands is
dangerous and may add another vic-
tim to the accident.
The song was "Asleep in the Deep"
and the singer was well and truly
deep when a friendly voice from the
back of the hall 'assailed him:
"Go easy, old chap! You'll scuttle
yourself if you're not careful!"

4n the' guise up -gypsies?"
"That I do," said Markham.
Grisewood strove toamplify in his
mind a picture the falconer's-. story
had conjured' up in it. At last • lie
was able to do this.
"Bel Goc}'s life!" he said, "that was
the pair oe vagabonds I saw in the
company of that accursed 'play -actor
at the tavern door on the morning I
came here." •
"Why do you call him accursed?"
said Markham, remembering with a
'pang that this player was a man in
whom he had already confided.
"Why 'do I call him accursed•?" said
Grisewood. "All, the world knows
him for. a notorious rogue, as are all
men of his sort. • And' I'll wager a
golden angel 'he is concealing these
fugitives in order "to serve some pur-
pose of his; own.='
"But why should he conceal them,"
said the falconer, "when there is 'a
large sum on the head of 'Mr. Her -
lot?"
"A large sum, eh! The rogue may
not know that."
It was more to the purpose, per-
haps, that t'he rogue who spoke had
not known it. He grew.silent. ` In
this business he must go cautiously
indeed.' It might be possible for one
whe. lived by his wits, to take profit
from this strange business. At least,
in his own mind, he was reasonably
sure of two things. The first was
that the fugitives' were near at hand,
the other that the play -actor was in
a position • to throw Tight `on their
whereabouts.
'The effect of thisconversation was
to keep Sir Robert Grisewood very
wideawake, and also to implant the
seed of distrust in the mind of Mark-
ham. It might be, after all, that the
player was not so open and honest
as he seemed. At any rate, the fal-
coner determined to watch him nar-
rowly. With that end in view he
marked all that Shakespeare. • did.
And, he soon 'found more food for his
suspicions.
Closeobservation of the player's
comingsandgoings-enabled- Markham-
to learn that there was a certain
room in the upper part of the inn,
which claimed a large share of his
attention. 'Much of Shakespeare's•
time was spent in it. Another person
who had recourse to it was a certain'
tall man 'profusely endowed with a
beard .end moustachios, said to be a
foreigner, • who bad lately joined the
Lord. 'Chamberlain's, Company, He
wasreputed to be a swordsman of
much skill, and in proof of it he had
lately given' Grisewood a thrust
through the arm.
The falconer was able to learn that.
this man, an Italian who went by
the name of BandineIlo, had 'a son.
And although he -,•••too, had joined the
Lord Chamberlain's Company, and
was staying at the Crown, Markham
found it impossible to get a sight of
him_,,. For one thing, .neither of these
Italian;5s took their meals with the
rest of the players in the dining -par-
lor, but as the falconer contrived to
learn, these were served to them in
this upper chamber.
This' fact deepened Maekham's sus-
picions. He did not 'think;' -well, how-
ever,^ to confide them to Grisewood.
Inquiry of the landlord had been suf-
ficient to fix d very evil •reputation
upon the man. And it had also serv-
ed, in a measure, to reassure 'Mark-
ham in respect of the player. The
landlord, who seemed a shrewd -and
honest fellow enough, hal no hesita-
tion in affirming that William Shake-
speare was a very upright man.
('Continued Next Week)
In view of the approaching swim-'
' mese ,season, the Ineestrlal. ,accident;
Prevention Associations have sent jhT
dustrY a special 'bulletin dealing With
•artificial respiration by the prone:.
pressure method. - C
The A,ssoci:ahionS point out, . "RSI
euseitatien, is not ;something which:.
can be read about after • a body hens
been pulled from the water dr after
a person has been rescued from a g,,•
filled room—resuscitation •should be
learned in advance and practised."
The timely poster, • designed for
plant bulletin 'boards, illustrates pre-
liminary and general rules of arti-
ficial respiration.
Here are the preliminary 'rules:
Drowning. --Quickly remove victim
from the water and piece on •ground
or other •hard surface. If possible
have head slightly lower than the
rest of the body, •so that water and
other liquids will drain away from
the victim.'
Gas Asphyxiation.—The first thing
to do is to .get the patient into, fresh
air quickly. Fresh Or does not mean
out of doorsin cold weather. Do not
breathe gas yourself, even ..:for a
short' time; if it does not• overeethe
you it will cut down your strength.
Electric Shock.—The victim must
be freed from the contact as 'prompt-
ly as ,pes'sible, Use 'a dry stick, dry
rope, dry coat or other non-conduc-
tor. The use of ,your own hands is
dangerous and may add another vic-
tim to the accident.
