She niul Queen Clnudc had forgotten
nothing, and nil arrangements were j
completcHl for the flight. A messenger np
had been dispatched two hours before
with an order from Queen Claude that
*0fehip should be waiting at Dieppe jkJ
ready to sail immediately upon our TI
arrival. tof
After the ceremouy Claude quickly tQ
bound up Mary's hair, and the queens ^
departed front the chattel In th?ir
coach. We soon followed, meeting 1
tlicm again at St. Denis gate, where for
we found the best of horses and four a ^
sturdy men awaiting us. The messen- "
ger to Dieppe who had preceded us ft,u
would arrnnge for relays, and, as Ma- der
ry, according to her wont when she l,r<>
had another to rely^upon, had taken ,lul<
the opportunity to become thoroughly n
frightened, no tline was lost. We made eve
these forty leagues In less than twenty- on
r four hours from the time of starting, toUl

little town near Itouen, which city
we carefully passed around.
We had little fear of being overtaken ^
at the rate we were riding, but Mary ?
said she supposed the wind would die
down for a. month immediately upon f "
our arrival *fk. Dieppe. Fortunately no (
one pursued us, thanks to Queen
Claude, who bad spread the report that J ^
Mary w/efs 111, and, fortunately also, an'
much to Mary's' surprise and delight,
when we arrived at Dieppe, as fair a
wind as a sailor's heart could wish was lfn
blowing right up the channel. It was
a part of the system of relays?horses, "
ship and wind. . ?

.Theship was a fine new one, well fit- ,u3*
ted to breast any sea, and, learning osc
this, we nt once agreed that upon land- c,Si
Ing in England Mury and I should go
to Iiondon and win over the king, if s
possible. We felt some confidence In '?
being able to do this, as we counted dei
upon Wolsey's help, but in case of fail- 1 v
ure we still had our plans. Brandon nn<
was to take the ship to a certain island ?cnI
off the Suffolk const and there await
us the period of n year if need l>e, as B'a
Mary might, in case of Henry's obstl- I'd
nacy, be detained, then revlctual and I*ri
remau the sh'lp and out through the n,f
North sen for their former haven, New Yo
Spain. 'Ik
In case of Henry's consent, how they dm
were to live in n style lit fur a prin- no
cess Brnndoitdld not know unless lien- ou
ry should open his heart and provide
for them, n doubtful contingency upou BO'
which they did not base much hope. I*'?
At a -pinch they might go down Into wc
Suffolk and live next to Jane and ine 10
on Brandon's estates. To this Mary *vo
readily agreed, and said It was what ^,0,
she wanted above nil else. ')0
There was one thing now in favor of do
the king's acquiescence. During tho
last'three months Brandon had become nn
very "necessary to his amusement, and 101
amusement wus his greatest need and
Aim fn life. 3'?
Mary and I went to London to boo
the king, having landed at Southnmpton
fbr the purpose of throwing off Hie 1>r
scent nny one who might seek the ship.
The king was delighted to see his sister,
and kissed her over and over again, 111
Mary had as hard a game to play as "
?Ter Pell to the lot of woman, but she '
was equal to the emergency If nny wo- s 1
man ever wds. She did not give Henry
tlic Slightest hint that she knew any- "J
thing, of the Count of Savoy episode,
but cplmly assumed that of course her rl
brother had meant literally what he 8,1
sflld1 when he made the promise as to
the second marriage.
The king soon asked: "But what are
^ yon, doing here? They hnvo hardly

"I am sure I do not know," nnswered ^

"But"? began Henry, when Mary Inirrupted
him, saying, "I will tell you"?
I had taken good care tliat Wolsey
lould be present at this Interview,
o we four ? the king, Wolsey, Mary
ad myself?quietly stepped Into a llte
alcove away from the others and
-epared to listen to Mary's tale, which
as told with all her dramatic elolence
ami feminine persuasiveness,
ic told of the ignoble Insults of Frans,
of his vile proposals?insisted upi,
almost to the point of force?carelly
concealing, however, the offer to
vorec Claude ami make her queen,
lileh proposition might have had its
tractions for Ilenry. She told of her
iprisonmcnt in the Palace des TourIles
a^. of her deadly peril and
my Indignities, and the tale lost
thing in the telling. Then she Allied
by throwing her arms around
jury's neck in a passionate tlood of
irs and begging him to protect her, j
save her. save her, save her, his lit- '
sister!' i
t wassail such perfect acting that 1
the time I forgot it was acting, and
;reat lump swelled up in my throat,
was, however, only for the instant, 1
1 when Mary, whose face was hidi
from all the others on Henry's '
ast, smiled slyly at me from the
1st of her tears and sobs, I burst Into j
fiugh that was like to have spoiled ' .
rythlng. Ilenry turned quickly up- i .
me, and I tried to cover it by pre- I ,
ding that I was sobbing. Wolsey I 1
"gown a corner of ,
us all so affected, began to catch * j
fever and swell with indignation. ,
put Mary away from him and,
ding up and down the room, ex- ^
med in a voice that all could hear:
le dog, the dog, to treat my sister (
My sister! My father's daughter! [ ,
sister! The lirst princess of Kng- I ,

t cost me my kingdoirVT and so on ^
11 words failed him. But see how , j
kept Ids oath, and see how he and ; j
ineis hobnobbed not long afterward I t
the Field of the Cloth of Gold. 1
[enit came back to Mary and began (
question her, when she repented the ,
ry for him. Then It was she told of ]
timely arrival, and how, in order to j
ape and protect herself from Fran- j
she had been compelled to marry
indoii and tlee with us. ]
lie said: "I so wanted to come home
England and be married where my 1
ir brother could give nic away, but 1
rus in such mortal dread of Francis,
1 there was no other means of cs- ,
>e, so"? i
Go<l's death! If I had but one other ,

an? Married to Brandon! Jesuf
u'll drive me mad! Just one other
e you In England, and the whole
mnod kingdom might sink. I'd have

t my epnsent!"
'No, no, brother," answered Mary
ftly, leaning affectionately against
i bulky form. "Do you suppose I
?uld do that? Now, don't be unkind
ine when 1 have been away from
u so long! You gave your consent
nr months ago. Do you not rememr?
You know I would never have
lie It otherwise."
'Yes, I know! You would not do
ytlling?you did not want, and it
ems equally certain that in the end
u always manage to do everything
u do want. Hell and furies!"
'Why, brother, I will leave it to my
rd bishop of York if you did not

oiu and almost on this very spot, that
I would marry Isolds of France I
Ight marry whomsoever I wished

lew, after what I had said, whom I
lould choose, so I went to a little

in, and I am ids wife, and no power
" eartli can mukc it otherwise." And

Henry looked at her In surprise and
ion burst out laughing, "Married to
rundon with your hair down?" And
e roared again, holding his %ldes.
Well, you do bent the devil. There's

as i\goodjoke on him. I'll b.tuk^
* V.
crown he was glad to die! You kept
It warm enough for him, I make no
doubt."
"Well," said Mary, with a little
shrug of her shoulders, "he would
inn cry me."
"Yes. and now poor Rraudon doesn't
know the trouble ahead of lilm either.
He has my pity, by Jove!"
"Oh, that is different," returned
Mary, and her eyes burned softly, and
her whole person fairly radiated, so j
expressive was she of the fact that "it
was different."
Different? Yes, as light from darkness;
as love from loathing; as heaven
from the other place; as Brandon from
Louis, and that tells it all.
Henry turned to Wolsey, "Have you
ever heard anything equal to it, my
lord bishop?"
My lord bishop, of course, never had,
nothing that even approached it.
"What arc we to do about it?" continued
Henry, still addressing Wolsey.
The bishop assumed a thoughtful
expression, as If to appear deliberate
In so great a matter, and said, "I see
but one thing that can be done." And
men nc turew In n few soft, oily words
upon the troubled waters tlint made
Mary wish she had never called him
"thou butcher's cur," and Ilenry after
a pause asked: "Where is Brandon? lie
is a good fellow, after all, and what
we can't help we must endure. He'll
And punishment enough In you. Tell
him to come home?I suppose you have
him hid around some place?and we'll
try to do something for him."
"What will you do for him, brother?" 1
said Mary, not wanting to give tho
king's friendly impulse time to weak- i
en. I
"Oh, don't lK)thcr about that now." i
But she held him fast by the band and '
would not let go. \
"Well, what do you want? Out with t
It. I suppose I might as well give it i
up easily; you will have it sooner or <
Inter. Out with it and bo done." ,
"Coukl you mnkc him duko of ?uf- <j
folk?"
"Eh? I suppose so. What say you, 0
my lord of York?"
York was willing; thought it would a
>e Just the thing. a
"So be It, then," said Ilenry. "Now a
am going out to hunt, and will not t,
isten to another word. You will coax 8
ue out of my kingdom for th,?t fellow p
ret." lie was about to leave the room ?
vh?li V V "
icre by Sunday next? I am to have a

Mary thought she could, and the
jreat event was accomplished.
One false word, one false syllable,
>ne false tone, would have spoiled It ?
ill had not Mnry?but I fear you are a
[venry with hearing so much of Mary. v
So after nil, Mnry, though a queen, a
nine portionless to Brandon. lie got. 0
he title, but never received the estates
>f Suffolk. All he received with her
vas the money I carried to him from
'"ranee. Nevertheless, Brandon thought C
ilmself the richest man in all the
?nrth, and surely he was one of the |
inpplest Sucb n woman as Mary is I
Inngerous, except in a state of complete
subjection, but she was bound
hand and foot in the silken meshes of
tier own weaving, and her power for
Missmuklng was almost infinite.
And now it was, as all who read may
know, that this fair, sweet, willful
Mary dropped out of history, a sure
token that her heart was her husband's
llirone, her soul his empire, her every
wish his subject, and her will, so masterful
with others, the meek and lowly
servant of her strong but gentle lord
nnd master, Charles Ilrnndon, duke of
Suffolk.
THE END.
Note by the Kdltor.?Sir Kdwin Oaskoden's
history differs in some minor details
from other authorities of the time. Hall's
chronicle says Sir William Brandon, father
of Charles, had the honor of being
killed by the hand of Richard III. himself
at Bosworth Field, and the points
wherein his account of Charles Brandon's
life differs from that of Sir Kdwin may
be gathered from Jhe index to the 154S
edition of that work, which Is as follows:
Charles Brandon. Ksqulre, Is made
knight, created Viscount Kyslc, made
duko of Suffolke, goeth to Paris to the
Iustes, doeth valiantly there, returneth
into Kngland, he Is sent into Frdunce to
fetch home the French queno Into England.
He maryeth her, and so on until he
dyeth and Is buryed at XYyndesore.
No mention Is made in any of the chronicles
of the office of master of dance. In
all other essential respects Sir Kdwin Is
corroborated by his contemporaries.
