CHAPTER XVI.
It had grown to be very dark with-
out, and night was creeping on apace
with its star -gemmed canopy of blu-
ish -black. Perhaps the deep foliage
that waved over the earth made it
look darker than it really was; but
at all events, it was so dark that one
could have found little difficulty in
hiding from `very close pursuers. The
girls had leaned back upon their
couch and were half buried in
dreamy forgetfulness, when they were
both startled by a low clattering
near the window of the closet that
overlooked the garden.
Instantly they started up, and
without speaking, they breathlessly
harkened to see if the sound would be
repeated. It was repeated, and with
tremulous fem. Marina caught her
companion by the arm and exclaimed:
"It is some one entering our
apar talent!. "
"Perhaps not," returned Esther,
Who was herself slightly alarmed.
"It may be—"
She did not finish her sentence, for
at that moment the sound was re-
peated with increased violence, and
shrinking back nearer to the door
that led out into the inner corridor,
they stood in trembling anxiety.
They had left the door of the closet
open, so as to admit of fresh air,
and they could plainly see the whole
of the window beyond. Not long
had they stood thus, when Marina
was confident she saw a dark object
intrude itself between the open space
of the window and the foliage be-
yond; and grasping Esther more
firmly by the arm, she said:
"Come, let us flee from here."
"No -no," quickly returned Es-
ther. "If it is one who intends to
visit us, Let him come; and then, if
he meditates harm, we can easily
arouse sufficient help, for there are
slaves near at hand in the adjoining
apartments. If he, or whoever it be,
seeks to carry us back to Tyre, we
will go. Remember the assurance I
have given thee."
Marina remained more calmly in
' her place, and gradually the dark
figure rose above the coping, and
stood revealed in the window. There
were lights burning in the apartment
' but the stranger was shrouded in a
large mantle, and nothing of his face
could be seen. He took a step into
the closet, and then stopping, he
threw the mantle slightly oh his
head and placed his fingers to his
lips.
" 'Slat" issued from his tongue."Is
the daughter of Kison Ludim here?"
Marina trembled more violently
than before, but Esther quickly an-
swered;
"She is."
"Then step this way -farther from
the walls that join the other apart-
ment," whispered the unknown."
"But who are you?"
"One who would befriend you."
"How?"
"With liberty."
"And to whom would you deliver
us?" asked Marina, now speaking for
the first time.
The unknown hesitated a moment,
and the girls thought he trembled
with emotion.
"I said you should have liberty,"
he at length return. "Will not
that satisfy you, Marina?"
The fair girl started forward a
step and stopped. That voice thril-
led to her very soul, and she thought
she knew its tones.
"Who are you? Speak'!" she ex-
claimed, half leaning forward.
The unknown threw his eyes about
him with a quick, searching glance,
and then he let the mantle fall from
his shoulders. The soft light of the
golden lamps fell upon the aged fea-
tures of Eason Ludim. With a
stifled cry Marina darted forward,
and found a warm home within her
father's embrace.
''Not dead -not dead!" she mur-

enured as she gazed up into the tear -
wet face of her parent.
. "No -no, my child, but a captive,
like your self," returned he, as he
pressed his daughter once more to
his bosom.
"Oh, I thought you were drowned."
"Ha! and did the king so give it
out?"
"Yes. Ho said you accidentally
fell overboard."
"Oh, the villain!"
"But how is it, father? What is
this? Did the king dare to sell you
into slavery'?"
"No, my child," returned the old
man, while his features were harrow-
ed by a painful look; "he sold me to
my death. After I had refused him
your hand for the prince, he engaged
me in the pretended embassy to Sid-
on, but. he had in reality given or -
dere for nie to bo thrown overboard
as soon as we were out of sight of
land. The captain of the vessel
would have surely done the fatal
deed but he chanced to fall in with
• Cyprian corsair; and in the height
of his cupidity, he sold me for a hun-
dred ounces of silver, I was exposed
in the inarket at Tarsus, and Beta
Saul bought me for an under -super-
intendent. I have not told my rank
nor does he know from whence I
came. I saw you when you were
brought hither, and though your veil
was down, yet I felt sure that it was
you. This morning I watched you
from the myrtles, and this afternoon
I followed you through the garden.
I saw you plainly, and I even felt a
thrill of joy for I knew you were not
in the clutches of Mapen. I did not
dare that you should see me, for fear
that the surprise would cause you to
expose me."
"And shall we escape from here,
father?"
"Yes, or die. But we have not
much to fear, for 1 have possessed
myself of a key that, will let us out
to the river; and once there we ran
easily obtain a barge. You shall
tell me anon of the strange circum-
stances which brought you here, but,.
now we must be on the move, for
time is precious. But your compan-
ion here?"
1 ••Slie is the daughter of Clio."
i 'late armorer?"
"Yes, and to her we both owe
much."
"And she shall be rewarded. But
come -I will hear the story at an-
other time."
Ludim grasped Esther warmly by
the hand as he spoke, and then he
turned towards the window. Here
he gazed carefully around, and hav-
ing become satisfied that no one was
stirring, he beckoned for the girls to
steis forward. 1 -le had brought ropes
with him with which to facilitate the
descent, and having prepared a sort
of noose, he asked Marina if she dar-
ed trust herself to be lowered by it.
"Anything -everything I dare," she
replied quickly, as she bent forw.ard.
Ludim passed the noose over her
head, and then adjusted it under her
arms; and making sure that the knot
was safe. and that the rope would
give her no pain, he requested her to
sit down upon the coping. She un-
hesitatingly obeyed, and then gradu-
ally eased herself from her seat un-
til she hung by the rope and thus
she was safely landed upon the
ground below. Esther followed her
companion's example, and then, se-
curing the rope to a brazen bolt in
the casing, Ludira followed them.. -
Already the girls felt like freed
birds, but they knew there was much
yet to be passed ere they could be
free, for a long way lay between
them and the goal of their hopes.
For several moments the email party
remained where they landed, listen-
ing to see if the breeze bore upon iLs
bosom the sound of danger. llot it
was quiet, and at length the old man
whispered for Marina and Esther to
follow him.
"Be cautious, now," he said, "and
let not even your robes drag tipon
the pavement, lest they should start
a rolling pebble. Stoop below the
shrubbery and keep your eyes and
ears open. Come."
Stealthily they crept along the
marble walk that led to the river,
stopping occasionally to listen, and
then again pushing slowly, cautious-
ly on. flag the way had they gained
and perhaps more, when Esther., who
was behind, suddenly uttered an ex-
clamation of alarm
"What is the matter?" breathless-.
ly asked Ludim, as he bent lower
and turned back.
"Ilark!" returned Esther, strain-
ing her ears towards the palace. "I
heart' loud voices, and they sounded
as though they were responding to
alarm."
"Ole heavens, we are detected!"
cried Marina, upon whose ears the
sound now fell.
Ludim tremblingly arose to his
feet and gazed towards the palace.
The confusion was plainly to be
heard, and he did not fail to distin-
guish the voice of Ben -Saul atnong.

"I fear they have indeed discover-
ed our flight," murmured the old
man.
"They have," cried Esther, "for,

persons hurrying to and fro in the
chamber we have left."
"Then let us fly to the river," cried
Marina, springing towards her father
and grasping him by the arm.
