CHAPTER VIII.
JULIA’S KKVRNQB.
Wo walked fur nearly an hour nnd
during tho last three-quarters of it kept
straight to tho northwest, in which di
rection 1 thought Morgan, with his lit
tle army, lay, or rather marched. At
lust tho bush began to grow thinnor
and the trees to stand farther apart. 1
inferred that wo were approaching the
end of tho forest, and I was not sorry,
as the traveling was hard, and I believed
that we had lost our pursuers. Present
ly wo came into the open, and I let tho
girl’s hand drop.
“Which way aro wo going now?” she
asked.
“ Wait a moment, ” I said.
I put two fingers to my lips and
blow between them a whistle, soft and
long and penetrating.
“Why do you do that?” asked the
girl in a fright, coming toward me.
“You will bring them upon us again.”
“Wait,” 1 repeated, and I blew the
whistle a second time. We stood mo
tionless for two minutes, and then 1
heard a faint crush, crush, as of ap
proaching footsteps.
“They aro coming!” cried tho girl,
seizing my arm. “Let us run iuto the
wood again. ”
“ Wait, ” I said for the third time.
The footsteps approached rapidly, and
a figure, gigautio aud formidable iu the
gray light, appeared through tho trees.
The girl cried aloud iu a panic of terror
and gripped my arm.
“Don’t bo alarmed, Julia, dear,” 1
said. “See who it is!"
Old Put walked up to me, gave his
glad, familiar whinny and rubbed his
nose on my disengaged arm. Then he
started back, and his eyes darned with
wrath.
“Don’t be angry, old comrade,” I
said “It is true I wear a red coat, but
it is only a disguise, a ruse, and I will
get rid of it as soou as I can. ”
He wagged his head as a sign that
my apology was sufiicient and made no
further protest. 1 slipped tho bridle
wnile only a short nap nad tatlen to mo.
We were la the darkest hours, those
that stretch out their length between
midnight and dawn, and I walked on
over a dim and shadowy world. Some
times I was not conscious that my feet
touched anything but air. This queer
feeling that I was walking on nothing
lasted for more than half an hour, aud
then my half sleep took another phase.
I came luiek to earth, and tho rod clay
of the road took on for awhile the color
of bhxid. The trees by the roadside
raced past, rows of phantoms, holding
out withered arms and making gestures
that I did not understand. Once the
dead face of Crowder rose np out of the
road and confronted me, but when I
said, “You were a murderer and worse
and compelled me to kill you, ” and
walked boldly at him ho melted away
like so much smoke, and I laughed
aloud at such a poor kiud of a ghost
that would run at the first fire.
“What on earth are you laughing
at?” demanded the girl from the horse’s
back.
I awoke with a jerk and replied:
“At your gratitude. ”
But I was ou tho verge of sleep again
in five minutes, and the trees and the
hills and the bushes were playing new
tricks with me. The bushes were espe
cially impudent, nodding to me and
then to each other and then saying
aloud:
“Hero hogoesl Lookathim—making
a fool of himself and wasting his time
over au English girl who hates him
and all his countrymen I"
I picked up a stone, threw it at one
excessively impudent bush and shouted
at tho top of my voice:
“It’s a liel”
“For heaven’s sake, Mr. Marcel, ”
cried tho girl, “what’s the matter?
Have you a fever?”
“I was dreaming,” I said confused
ly, and I made no further explanation,
for sho asked no more, merely saying
that she hoped it was no worse than
that
\
c-au you direct us uy tne Dost roan to
Turleton?”
“Keep straight on tho way you are
going,” said tho officer, “aud if you
hurry you ought to overtake Tnrleton
before noon. Have no fear of the rebels,
for Turleton is driving them all ahead
of him, except one small party to the
south of here, for which we are look
ing. I’d give you an escort into Tarle-
ton's camp, but I ihmmI all my troopers
for the task I have iu hand.”
“I thank you for your courtesy and
information. Lieutenant Cuthbort, ” she
replied, “and I hope that wo will meet
again soon in Charleston when all these
rebels are taken. ”
“And that will not bo long, Miss
Howard,” he said, with n gallant bow.
He gave the word to his troopers, aud
they galloped on.
During this ordeal tho behavior of
Old Put was something wonderful to
see. Though ho hated a redcoat as a
cat hates a snake, he seemed to under
stand that he had a part to act aud that
he must act it well. All his true char
acter disappeared. He was a shambling,
drooping horse, with his head down
and ready to submit to anything, just
an ordinary, oppressed British horse of
the lower classes, not a proud spirited
American horse, conscious of the Dec
laration of Independence and the truth
that all men aud horses are born free
and pqual.
But when the last of the British
troops hod disappeared around tho hill
and tho gallop of their horses had sunk
into a mere echo Old Put resumed his
former and true character—his figure
expanded, he held up his head once
more. He was tho true patriot, equal
to alL I was glad to se« the change, for
that was the character iu which I liked
him best.
We went on for a long time in
silence, barring a request from the girl
that I ride and let her walk iu my
place. I declined abruptly, saying I
was a cavalryman, with such few oppor
tunities for walkiug that I intended to
enjoy one when I had it.

WE STARTED ON OUR GREAT CURVE AROUND TARLETON.
over ins head, and tho girl broke into a
nervous laugh of relief.
“Did you think Old Put would desert
a comrade?’' I asked.
“Wait hero just a moment,” I con
tinued. 1 led Old Put a little distauce,
and gathering up some dry leaves wiped
tho stains off his hoofs. Then Ireturued
with him to her and told her to jump
upon his back, but the horse shied away
from her, showing aversion aud anger.
“Never mind, Old Put,” 1 said. “It
is all right. Sho won’t beat you again
Sho likes us both. ”
“It seems to mo that you are rather
inclusive iu vour statements. ” she said.
• uetup,'' i said, aud, giving her a
hand, I assisted her to jump upon the
back of Old Put, who had received my
explanation with perfect confidence and
assumed a protecting air toward her.
“Aud now once more for Morgan,”
I said.
“Which, of course, means Tarleton
iu tho euri,” she said. “Aud I want to
say, Mr. Marcel, that when tho rebel
army Is taken I shall not forget tho
service that you havodouo moat a great
risk to yourself. My father lias influ
ence with Colonel Turleton, and I shall
ask him to secure your good treatment
whilo in captivity.
ohe spoke with quite an English—
that is to say, quite a putrouizing—air.
“Yon are very kind,” I said, “but
Morgan has not been caught yet, lias ho,
Old Put?”
Women think it their right to abuse
a man and receive nothing but chivalry
in return.
Tho old horse shook his head defiant
ly, and I felt encouraged. We had en
tered a good country for traveling and
at last came into something that was
meant evidently for a road, but it very
much more resembled a gully washed
>ut by the rains. It led in the right di
rection, and 1 followed it, despite my
persuasion that wo were now iu terri
tory practically occupied by tho British
and were much more likely to meet
them iu the road than iu the fields or
forest. But I was tired of such difficult
traveling, and, being extremely anxious
to rejoin Morgan, I chose the course
which promised tho best speed.
Old Put carried the girl, and I walked
on before, holding his bridle in my
hand. 1 sank iuto a kiud of walking
doae—thnt is, I slept on my feet and
with my feet moving. I was hut dimly
conscious, hut 1 knew that I could put
my trust in Old Put* and that he would
warn me if she made any attempt to
escape. Whether the girl was asleep or
wide awake I knew not, for my brain
was too tired and dull then to tell me;
but, looking back once, she seemed to be
| awake. She had sleut well in the hut.
Tho trees and bushes did not cease to
nod at me and waggle their heads at
each other and make jeering remarks
about me, but I paid no further atten
tion to them, treating them with the
lofty scorn of silence, which is supposed
to bo tho most effective of all replies.
The road led into hilly country, but I
tramped on in my dream, becoming
dimly conscious that it was growing
light. Afar off there in the east, just
where tho sky tonched the earth, waa a
bar of light shining like silver. As I
looked it broadened and began to roll
up like a great wave of molten silver.
Ou tho horizon the hills and trees rose
out of the darkness.
Old Put turned his face to the day
light and whinnied approvaL An an
swering whinny came as 20 cavalry
men galloped around a hill, opening In
two lines and closing np again, with os
iu tho center.
“Wake up f Wake up, man I Why,
you’ll walk intp a river or over a cliff
if you sleep on in this way,” said one
of tho cavalrymen, leaning over and
slapping me vigorously ou the shoulder.
1 awoke aud looked up at his be-
whiskered English face and his bestrip-
ed English coat and was filled with con
fusion aud dismay.
“Why, ho isn’t awake even yeti”
raid tho officer, with a laugh. “Are you
from Cornwallis?”
His tone, though eager, was friendly,
and tho reason for his question flashed
upon mo. It was tho red coat that I
wore, Crowder’s coat, which had served
mo one good turn already.
“Yes,” I said, ”my name’s Hinkle,
and I’m from Cornwallis with an Im
portant message for Tarleton- I was
pursued lust night by a gang of rebels,
who shot my horse, but I escaped them
in the wood. An hour ago I overtook
Miss Howard hero, who also has an im
portant dispatch for Tarleton, and I am
trying to pilot myself and her to him
at the same time.
Thu officer raised his hat to Min
Howard and regarded her with open ad
miration.
“Your bravery and lovaltv equal
your beauty, Miss Howard, ” be said.
“England can neVer suffer when we
have such as you. Don’t you remember
me? I’m Lieutenant George Catbbert,
and I had the honor of an Introduction
to yon at Lord Cornwallis’ ball in
Charleston some mouths ago. ”
“Indeed 1 do,” sho raid in a tone of
recognition, “and I hope that we shall
beet again soon under such peaceful
oircumstanoes, bnt now I mu it hasten
on, for my message will not wait, and so
must this kiud soldier, who has been
mob an assistance »*’'* Notion to pne.
The sun, following the new light in
the east, bad appeared above the hills.
The far crests and forests flamed with
red gold, and we trod silently on in the
shining light of the morning. “Why
did you not take your opportunity, ” I
asked at length, “and return to your
own people? Why did you not toll them
back there who and what I was?”
8he remained silent, and I looked
back at her.
“Julia,” 1 said, and she did not seem
to notice that I had called her by her
first name again despite her command,
“why did you not tell them who I was
and let them take me a prisoner?”
”1 have called yon a rebel, with a
noose around your neck, and it is true.
The noose Is always there, and it was
pressing very close then. For yon to
nave been taken a prisoner then meant
your death. I could have taken the
chance of returning to my own people
then only by hanging you. ”
“How? 1 do not understand you. ”
“Look at the red coat you wear. ’A
spy I’ says Tarleton, who knows no
mercy. ’Hang him at once I’and you are
hanged.”
I had forgotten the coat, which, hav
ing served me well twice, might serve
me very ill the third time.
“I most get rid of this coat soon, ” 1
said. Then I added os au afterthought:
“But what is it to you were I hanged?
It would be only one more wicked rebel
meeting tho fate that ho deserves. Why
should yon put yourself to trouble for
me?”
I looked back over my shoulder,
though I may not have had the appear
ance of looking. I saw a flush as of the
morning that was around us overspread
her face, and she looked afar over my
head, her eyes shining with something
I had not seen there before. I asked her
no more, but the morning continued to
grow into a splendor and radiance pass
ing all previous knowledge of mine.
The sun crept np, and tho light reach
ed all the earth, west as well as the
east. We were still in tho red clay road,
winding among lone hills and deserted
fields and patches of primitive foresta
We came to a brook of cool, clear wa
ter, babbling over tho stones.
“Here wo rest," I said, “and eat
breakfast Jump down, Julia.”
Bhe sprang down, aud all three drank
at tho brook—Julia, Old Put and L
Then we ate the remains of our provi
sions, while tho horse found some ten
der stems of grass by the brookside.
“I think we had better leave the road
now,” I said, “for this Is tho enemy’s
country, aud I do not want to meet any
more of Tarletou’s men. ”
It was my purpose to make a circuit
around Tarleton and join Morgan, and
she made no objection, but suggested
that she walk with mo.
”1 am tired of riding,” sho said,
“and it will bo good for the horse too. ”
I threw the bridle reins over Old
Pot’s head, told him to follow us, and
we started on our great curve around
Tarleton. Being a Charleston man, 1
knew very little of that part of tho
country, but in my campaigning with
Greene and Morgan 1 had obtained some
idea of tho lay of the land, and fltnew
the general course I ought to follow.
Besides, I felt very good, and I was fall
of enthusiasm. But little of the coun
try had been cultivated, and as the for
est was not dense there was nothing to
stay our progress. Wo marched steadily
on, and what impressed us most was the
desolation of the laud. But thinly peo
pled in the first place, everybody here,
as in the country through which we
had traveled the day previous, had fled
before tho advance of tho armies. We
passed two abandoned cabins in the
scanty fields, but saw no other sign of
human habitation. Yet it did not sad
den mo. The sunshine was I autiful,
aud the old world was fresh and young.
“In a few years, Julia," I said,
“when the last of Tarleton’s raiih is is
stmt across the sea or to his final homo
and wo win our freedom, all this will bo
peaceful aud populated.’’
Bhe said nothing—nothing about the
valor of tho English and the spiedy de
struction of tho relsds—but looked
abroad over tbo country with kindling
eyes. It was fair to see, even in winter,
with Its rolling hills and sloping val
ley* and streams of sparkling water, a
fit place for u noble race of freemen to
grow. But just then it was tho most
unhappy part of all our continent. Nei
ther man nor woman could expect mercy
where Turletou’s raiders came, and all
tho books will tell you, and tell you
rightly, that the war was more fero
cious iu the south than in the north
and most ferocious of all ou the soil of
South Carolina. Where partisan bauds
ravage nnd fight and the people of the
soil themselves tiro set and iuibittored
against each other then war is seen at
its worst.

week to week in the Friday issue of

Most of you were with us last week.

elegance that we have secured.
Here you found the correct ideas—the styles that
will be prevalent this season.
We confess that we have purloined beauty and
style—exclusiveness wherever found—that we have
copied, emulated and adapted from every recognized
source, and the result is so much prettiness and charm
that choosing is no easy task.
Highest quality, Lowest prices, Superior work
manship, are obtained here.
Fetching Furnishings lor
are arriving daily. Since we began business this store
has been headquarters for women who appreciate
good clothes. From now on we propose to occupy
that same position in Gents’ Furnishings.
With this end in view we have bought what is with
out doubt the swellest line of Men’s Furnishings ever
brought to Gaffney. This nobby showing will be ready
before Easter ; don’t get in a hurry and buy something
you don’t like. WAIT FOR THE SWELL LINE.
Flannels are going to be the proper thing and

is no use telling you what we have coming—just wait
a week and see for yourself.
