There take the candle and come along!" said Capitola, in a tone of impatience. Pitapat took up the light and stood ready to accompany her mistress, Capitola, humming a gay tune, went to the door and unlocked and opened it.

Wool came and helped her into the saddle, saying: "Yer does right, Miss Cap, to keep your face kivered; it's awful windy, ain't it, though? I kin scarcely keep the har from blowing offen my head." With an impatient jerk after the manner of Capitola, Clara signified that she did not wish to converse.

"Humph! it is an ugly business, your honor, especially with your honor's little prejudice against " "Donald, this is no time for weakness! I have gone too far to stop! Capitola must die!" "That's so, colonel the pity is that it wasn't found out fourteen years ago.

One afternoon when they were out riding through the woods beyond the Demon's Run, a Sheriff's officer rode up, and bowing to the party, presented a suspicious-looking document to Capitola and a similar one to Herbert Greyson.

You venture to stand there before my face and tell me composedly that you permitted Miss Black to go off alone in the face of such a storm as this?" roared Old Hurricane. "Sir, I could not help it!" said the old lady. "Demmy, mum! You should have helped it! A woman of your age to stand there and tell me that she could not prevent a young creature like Capitola from going out alone in the storm!"

The little maid began to obey and Capitola tried to think of some plan to escape their imminent danger. To obey the natural impulse to fly from the room would be instantly fatal they would be followed and murdered in the hall before they could possibly give the alarm!

But Jem, the first moment he had found himself unwatched, had put out as fast as he could fly to Hurricane Hall, to inform Major Warfield of what had occurred. And Capitola, after losing a great deal of time in looking for him, mounted her horse and was just about to start, when who should ride up in hot haste but Old Hurricane, attended by Wool. "Stop there!" he shouted, as he saw Cap.
