The next morning the word went forth that a great banquet was to be given in the castle that night for Prince Dantan and the approaching noblemen. The prince expected to depart almost immediately thereafter to resume the throne in Serros. Baldos was wandering through the park early in the morning. His duties rested lightly upon his shoulders, but he was restless and dissatisfied.
Enchanted and confused over all that had occurred in the last few moments, Beverly murmured her heartfelt congratulations to the joyous couple. The orchestra had again ceased playing. All eyes turned to Baldos, the real Prince Dantan, who, glass in hand, rose to his feet. "Your Royal Highness, Ladies and Gentlemen: Graustark and Dawsbergen are entering a new era.
Then, from the house tops, he can pick them off like blackbirds. It's awful! Is there nothing that we can do, Prince? Damn it all, I know we can force a gate. And if we once get in where those cowardly dogs are lording it, you'll see 'em take the walls like steeple-chasers." "My dear Mr. King," said Prince Dantan calmly, "you don't know Colonel Quinnox and the House Guard.
The party was seen in Vienna a week later, and the young duke boldly announced that he was off to the east to help his friend Dantan in the fight for his throne. Going on the theory that Baldos is this same Christobal, we have only to provide a reason for his preferring the wilds to the comforts of our cities.
Then in a note she explains: "The Marquis of Titchfield was employing the French sculptor, Dantan, to make busts of my father, my sister, and myself, for him, and most kindly gave me casts of them all, and sent my friend, Miss St. Leger, a cast of mine."
On the arrival of Gabriel at the capital, the army of Dawsbergen espoused the cause of the Prince it had spurned and, three days after his escape, he was on his throne, defying Yetive and offering a price for the head of the unfortunate Dantan, now a fugitive in the hills along the Graustark frontier. Major George Calhoun was a member of Congress from one of the southern states.
We would have lived in a hovel, after all. Fortune was with me, I deceived you for months, Beverly my Beverly, but it was for the best. In defense of my honor and dignity, however, I must tell you that the princess has known for many days that I am Dantan. I told her the truth when Christobal came that day with the news.
There's a report that she was actually killed, and that the story of her flight is a mere blind on the part of Gabriel." "He would do anything," cried Yetive." Poor child; they say she is like her English mother and is charming." "That would set Gabriel against her, I fancy," went on Anguish. "And, by the way, Miss Calhoun, we heard something definite about your friend, Prince Dantan.
In the hallway beyond a group of noblemen conversed excitedly with the women of the castle. "The report from the dungeons, Yetive," cried Lorry joyously. "The warden says that Gabriel is in his cell again! Here's to Prince Dantan!" Ravone was standing in the door. Candace ran over and leaped into his arms. Ravone was handsome in his borrowed clothes.
The party was armed and equipped for a bitter chase. Word had been sent to Serros, the capital of Dawsbergen, asking the assistance of Prince Dantan in the effort to overtake the abductors. A detachment, it was announced in reply, was to start from Serros during the afternoon, bound for the eastern passes. Baron Dangloss rode to the southern gate with the white-faced, suffering Tullis.
