Abroad in the fields of air, as Paul and the love of God make me hope, what will the wind-battling Ruadh care for his old head! Would he not say, 'Let the man have it; my hour was come, or the Some One would not have let him kill me!?"

If he was to live and make head it must be by the strong hand alone the Red Hand of Tyr-owen; and he looked down at the ring of Owen Ruadh and took it for a symbol, as his ancestors had taken it.

Ian looked, and saw a cheque for ten pounds. He burst into loud laughter. "Poor Ruadh's horns! they're hardly so long as their owner's ears!" he said. "I told you so!" cried the chief. "No, Alister! You never suspected such a donkey!" "What is it all about?" asked the mother. "The wretch who shot Ruadh," replied Alister, " to whom I gave his head, all to please Ian, " "Alister!" said Ian.

We stumbled through the snow, and my comrade good heart! said never a word to mar my meditation. On our right the hill of Meall Ruadh rose up like a storm-cloud ere the blackest of the night fell; we walked on the edges of the plantations, surmising our way by the aid of the grey snow around us.

"I will pay whatever you choose to set on the brute." It would be hard to say which was less agreeable to the chief-to have his stag called a brute, or be offered blood-money for him. "Stag Ruadh priced like a bullock!" he said, with a slow smile, full of sadness; " the pride of every child in the strath! Not a gentleman in the county would have shot Clanruadh's deer!"

They would flock to him when his condition was made known, and that Cromwell's men would shatter the royalists and confederacy Brian saw clearly, as Owen Ruadh had foretold him.

"I've been up on Meall Ruadh there, and I see the whole countryside's in a confusion. Pipers are blowing away down the glen and guns are firing; if it's not a muster of the enemy preparatory to their quitting the country, it's a call to a more particular search in the hills and woods. Anyway we must be bundling."

"She was So-and-so," answered her husband, looking into the fire; "we were very young, and I've paid the penalty by my rueing it ever since." Nannie Ruadh took the child to her heart that never knew the glamour of her own, and he grew up, as I could tell in a more interesting tale than this, to be a great and good soldier, who won battles for his country.

Royalist, patriot, and Parliament man fought each against the other, and the only man who could have faced Cromwell lay sick unto death. The Day was passing, the Man was passing, and shadow lay upon all the land. A man came up and touched Yellow Brian's arm, with word that Owen Ruadh would see him at once. Brian nodded, following.
