The Marshal, leaning against a brass field-piece, turned to her with a smile in his keen, stern eyes. "You, my young one! What brings you here?" She came up to him with her rapid leopard-like grace, and he started as he saw the change upon her features. She was covered with sand and dust, and with the animal's blood-flecked foam.
