This great Roman road, known as the Stane Street, coming out of the eastern gate of Chichester, takes the Downs as an arrow flies, crossing them between Boxgrove and Bignor, nor is the work of Rome even to-day wholly destroyed, for there under Bignor Hill we may still see the pavement of their Way, while at Bignor itself we have perhaps the best remains of a Roman villa left to us in Sussex.
"And I will accompany you," answered Stane, "the walk in the snow will help to take the stiffness out of my leg." They set out together, but had gone but a little way when the girl gave a sharp "Hist!" "What is it?" he asked quietly, thinking that she had seen game of some kind.

"Thank you, Miss a Miss " "Yardely is my name," she said quickly, "Helen Yardely."
He rose slowly from his seat, put the unfinished snow-shoe on the table, and crept towards the door. Whoever the intruder was he had not moved, and Stane had an odd fancy that he was listening there on the other side of the rough timbers.
