CHAPTER XXL THE FLIGHT IK THE HEATHER—THE MflR. Thrcc or four ragged men leaped out. More than eleven hours of incessant, hard traveling brought us early in the morning to the end of a range of moun tains. In front of us there lay a piece of low, broken, desert land, which we now must cross. The sun was not long up and shone straight in onr eyes; a little thin mist went up from the face of the moorland like a smoke, so that, as Alan said, there might have been twenty squadrons of dragoons there and we none the wiser. We sat down, therefore, in the howe of the hillside till the mist should have risen and made ourselves a dish of drammach and held a council of war. "David,” said Alan, “this is the kittle bit. Shall we lie here till it comes night, or shall We risk it and stave on ahead?” “Well,” said 1, “1 am tired indeed, but I could walk as far again, if that was all.” “Aye, but it is nae,” said Alan, “nor yet the half. This is how we stand— Appin's fair death to us. To the south it’s all Campbells, and nae to bethought of. To the north—well, there's nae muckle to be gained by going north; neither for you, that wants to get to Queensferry, nor yet for me, that wants to get to France. Well, then, we'll can strike east.” “East be it!” says I quite cheerily; but I was thinking, in to myself “Oh, man, if you would take one point of the com pass and let me take any other, it would be the best for both of us.” “Well, then, east, ye see, we have the mnirs,” said Alan. “Once there, David, it's mere pitch and toss. Out on yon bald, naked, flat place, where can a body turn to? Let the redcoats come over a hill; they can spy you milesaway, and the sorrow's in their horses' heels! They will soon ridaj’ou down. It’s nae good place, David, and I’m free to say it's worse by daylight than by dark.” “Alan,” said 1, “hear my way of it. Appin's death for us: we have none too much money, nor yet meal; the longer they seek the nearer they may guess where we are; it's all a risk; and I give my wflld to go ahead until we drop.” Alan was delighted. “There are whiles,” said he, “when ye are altogether too canny and Whiggish to be company for a gentleman like me; but there come other whiles when ye show your- sel' a mettle spark, and it’s then, David, that I love ye like a brother.” We went down accordingly into the waste, and began to make our toilsome and devious travel toward the eastern verge. There were the tops of the moun tains all round (you are to remember) from whence we might be spied at any moment; so it behooved us to keep in the hollow parts of the moor, and when these turned aside from onr direction to move upon its naked face with infinite care. Toiling and resting and toiling again we wore away the morning, and about noon lay down in a thick bush of heather to sleep. Alan took the first watch, and it seemed to mo I had scarce closed my eyes before I was shaken up to take the second. We had no clock to go by, and Alan stuck a sprig of heath in the ground to serve instead, so that as soon as the shadow of the bush should fall so far to the east I might know to rouse him. But I was by this time so weary that I could have slept twelve hours at a stretch; 1 had the taste of sleep in my throat: my joints slept even when my mind was waking; the hot smell of the heather and the drone of the wild bees were like possets to me, and every now and again I would give a jump and find I had been dozing. The last time I woke I seemed to come back from farther away, and thought the sun had taken a great start in the heavens. 1 looked at the sprig of heath, and at that I could have cried aloud, for I saw I hail betrayed my trust. My head was nearly turned with fear and shame, and at what I saw, when I looked out around me on the muir, my heart was like .dying in my body. For sure enough a body of horse soldiers had come down during my sleep and were drawing near to us from the southeast, spread out in the shape of a fan, and riding their horses to and fro in the deep parts of the heather. When I waked Alan he glanced first at the soldiers, then at the mark and the position of the sun, and knitted his brows with a sudden, quick look, both ugly and anxious, which was all the reproach I had of him. "What are we to do now?” I asked. “We'll have to play at being hares,' said he. "Do ye see yon mountain?” pointing to one on the northeastern sky. “Aye,” said I. “Well, then,” says he, “let us strike for that. It’s name is Ben Alder; it is a wild, desert mountain full of hills and hollows, and if j> e can win to it before the morn we may do yet.” “But, Alan," cried I, “that will take us across the very coming of the sol diers!” “1 ken that fine," said he; “but if we are driven back on Appin we are two dead men. So now, David, man, be brisk 1” With that ho began to run forward on his hands and knees with an incredible quickness, as though it were his natural v *.' ot going. All the time, too, he kept winding in and out in the lower parts of the moorland where we were the best concealed. Now and then indeed where was a big bush of heather we lay awhile and panted, and putting aside the leaves looked back at the dragoons. They had not spied us, for they held straight on; a half troop, I think, covering about two miles of ground and beating it mighty thoroughly as they went. At length, in the first gloaming of the night, we heard a trumpet sound, and ■looking back from among the heather saw the troop Iteginning to collect. A little after they had built a tire and camiied for the night, about the middle of the waste. • At this 1 begged and besought that we might lie down and sleep. “There shall be no sleep the night!” said Alan. “From now on these weary dragoons of yours will keep the crown of the muirlund and none will get out of Appin but winged fowls. We got through in the nick of time, and shall we jeopard what we've gained? Nae, nae; when the day comes it shall find you and me in a fast place on Ben Alder." “Alan," I said, “it's not the want of will; it's the strength that I want. If I could I would; but as sure as I'm alive 1 cannot.” “Very well, then,” said Alan. “I’ll carry ye.” 1 looked to see if he were jesting; but no; the little man was in dead earnest, and the sight of so much resolution shamed me. "Load away!" said 1. “I'll follow." He gave me one look, as much as to say, “Well done, David!" and off he set again at his top speed. It grew cooler and even a little darker (but not much) with the coming of the night. Heavy dew fell and drenched the moor like rain, and this refreshed mo for awhile. When we stopped to breathe, and I had time to see all about me the clearness and sweetness of the night, the shapes of the hills like things asleep, and the fire dwindling away be hind us, like a bright spot in the midst of the moor, anger would come upon me in a clap that I must still drag my self in agony and e^t the dust like a worm. Day began to come in after years, I thought, and by that time we were past the greatest danger and could walk upon onr feet like men instead of crawling like brutes. But, dear heart, have mercy! W’hat a pair we must have made, going double like old grandfathers, stumbling like babes and as white as dead folk. Never a word passed be tween us; each set his mouth and kept his eyes in front of him, and lifted up his foot and set it down again, like peo ple lifting weights ul a country play, all the while, with the moor fowl cry ing “peep!” in the heather and the light coming slowly clearer in the east. I say Alan did as I did; not that ever 1 looked at him, for I had enough ado to keep my feet, but because it is plain he must have been as stupid with weari ness as myself, and looked as little where we were going, or we should not have walked into an ambush like blind men. It fell in this way. We were going down a heathery brae, Alan leading and I following a pace or two behind, like a tiddler and his wife, when upon a sud den the heather gave a rustle, three or four ragged men leaped out, and the next moment we were lying on onr backs, each with a dirk at his throat. I don't think I cared; the pain of this rough handling was quite swallowed up by the pains of which I was already full, and I was too glad to have stopped walk ing to mind about a dirk. I lay looking up in the face of the man that held me, and I mind his face was black with the sun and his eyes very light, but I was not afraid of him. I heard Alan and another whispering in the Gaelic, and what they said was all one to me. Then the dirks were put up, our weapons were taken away, and we were set face to face, sitting in the heather. “They are Cluny’s men,” said Alan. “We couldnae have fallen better. We're just to bide here with these, which are his outsentries, till they can get word to the chief of my arrival.” Now, Cluny Macpherson, the chief of the clan Vonrich, had been one of the leaders of the great rebellion six years before; there was a price on his life, and I had supposed him long ago in France, with the rest of the heads of that desperate party. Even tired as I was the surprise of what I hoard half awakened me. “Whatr I cried. “Is Cluny still here?’ “Aye, is he so!” said Alan. “Still in his own country and kept by his own clan. King George can do no more.” I think I would have asked further, but Alan gave me the put off. “I am rather wearied,” he said, “and I would like fine to get a sleep.” And without more words he rolled on his face in a deep heather bush and seemed to sleep at once. There was no such thing possible for me. You have heard grasshoppers whirring in the grass in the summer time? Well, I had no sooner closed my eyes than my body, and above all my head, belly and wrists, seemed to be filled with whirring grasshoppers, and I must open my eyes again at once and tumble and toss, and sit up and lie down, and look at the sky which dazzled me, or at Cluny’s wild and dirty sentries peering out over the top of the brae and chattering to each other in the Gaelic. That was all the rest I had until the messenger returned, when, as it ap peared that Cluny would be glad to re ceive ns, we must get once more upon • or feet and set forward. Alan was in excellent good spirits, much refreshed by his sleep, very hungry and looking pleasantly forward to a dram and a dish of hot collops, of which, it seems, the messenger had brought him word. For my part a sort of horror of despair «at on my mind, so that I could have wept at my own helplessness. I saw Alan knitting his trows at me and supposed it was in anger, apd the next moment two of the gillies had me bv the arms, and I began to be carried lOrward with great swlftnSis (or so it appeared to me, although I dare say it was slowly enough in troth) through a labvrinth of dreary glens and hollows and into the heart of that dismal moun tain of Den Alder.
