"The letter says, 'so dangerously wounded that he was transported in a dying condition to Vienna," "Had he been dying, he would not have been transported to Vienna," exclaimed Laura, with a smile of returning hope. "No, no!

For a time no further hostile movement was made, and it began to look as though his efforts would win; but suddenly, with a concerted movement, the bows were swung upward, and arrows began to fall dangerously near.
