personal part in it, and was often round the fields himself armed with a

great oak staff. It seemed, indeed, as if the preservation of the game

was of far greater importance to him than the shooting of it afterwards.

All the fowls of the air flocked to Southlands, as if it had been a

refuge; yet it was not a large estate. Into the forest we had been, but

Southlands was a mystery, a forbidden garden of delight, with the terror

of an oaken staff (and unknown penalties)…

One warm afternoon late in the summer I got up into this oak; and took a

seat astride a large limb, with the main trunk behind like the back of a

chair and about twenty feet above the mound. Some lesser branches

afforded a fork on which the gun could be securely lodged, and a limb of

considerable size came across in front. Leaning both arms on this, a

view could be obtained below and on…

After waiting some time it was removed and reset just over a hole--the

loop close to the opening. It looked scarcely possible for a rabbit to

creep out without being caught, the loop being enlarged to correspond

with the mouth of the hole. For a while it seemed as if the rabbits

declined to use the hole at all; presently, however, the loop was pushed

back, showing that one must have got his nose between it and the bank

and so made a safe passage sideways. A run…

Besides the gun there was the Indian bow, scooped out inside in a curious way, and covered with strange designs or coloured hieroglyphics: it had been brought home by one of our people years before. There was but one man in the place who could bend that bow effectually; so that though we valued it highly we could not use it. By it lay another of briar, which was pliable enough and had brought down more than one bird. Shox…

"That's sound logic, no doubt," said Ardan; "still I can't help thinking

that all for want of a little light we are losing, probably forever, a

splendid opportunity of seeing the Moon's invisible side. How about the

other planets, Barbican? Do you think that their inhabitants are as

ignorant regarding their satellites as we are regarding ours?"

An excited discussion on this subject soon sprang up, in which all

naturally took part. Ardan's imagination as usual getting the better of

his reason, he maintained very warmly that the Projectile, caught and

retained by the Moon's attraction, could not help falling on her

surface, just as an aerolite cannot help falling on our Earth.

The first thing now to be done was to see after the water cask and the

provision chest. They were not injured in the slightest respect, thanks

to the means taken to counteract the shock. The provisions were in good

condition, and abundant enough to supply the travellers for a whole

"Poor Marston must have looked on us as roasted alive!" observed Ardan.

"What could have saved us I'm sure I can't tell," replied Barbican. "I

must acknowledge that against such a danger, I had made no provision

whatever."

"I knew all about it," said the Captain, "and on the strength of it, I

had laid my fifth wager."

"Probably,"…

"Come out to your friends, charming Diana," he went on, "come out, my

beauty, destined for a lofty niche in the temple of canine glory! Come

out, worthy scion of a race deemed worthy by the Egyptians to be a

companion of the great god, Anubis, by the Christians, to be a friend of

the good Saint Roch! Come out and partake of a glory before which the

stars of Montargis and of St. Bernard shall henceforward pale their

ineffectual fire! Come out, my lady, and let me think…

was not quite as brilliant as the Moon's. But the Earth's crescent,

compared to the Lunar, was of dimensions much greater, being fully 4

times larger. You would have called it a vast, beautiful, but very thin

bow extending over the sky. A few points, brighter than the rest,

particularly in its concave part, revealed the presence of lofty

mountains, probably the Himalayahs. But they disappeared every now and

then under thick vapory spots, which are never seen on the…

Nearer and nearer it came, but without noise, without sparks, without a

trail, though its lower part was brighter than ever. Its path lying

little above them, the nearer it came the more the collision seemed

inevitable. Imagine yourself caught on a narrow railroad bridge at

midnight with an express train approaching at full speed, its reflector

already dazzling you with its light, the roar of the cars rattling in

your ears, and you may conceive the feelings of…

and dignity that was very attractive. As she advanced towards health her

deportment took on an easy, confiding air, as if she looked upon me as a

true friend. Her smile, whenever I appeared, broke over her gentle face

like a gleam of sunshine.

Mrs. Montgomery's manner towards me was distinguished by the same

frankness that marked her daughter's deportment. The stately air that

struck me in the beginning I no longer observed. If it existed, my eyes

saw it…

"Perhaps," she resumed, after a moment, "it may be as well, all things

considered, that you do not speak of this for the present. I shall,

as soon as my daughter's full recovery gives me time to enter into the

subject, place my affairs in the hands of a safe legal agent, in order

that they may assume due form and order. You can, no doubt, refer me to

the right individual."

"There has been no purposed concealment. My name is Montgomery; and I am

sister to the late Captain Allen."

"I had already inferred this relationship." The remark evidently

surprised her.

carriage. Before leaving home, Blanche went around to see a number of

poor cottagers in our neighbourhood, and there was sickness at several

of the places where she called. In one cottage, particularly, was a case

of low fever. I was troubled when I learned that she had been there, but

still hoped that her excellent state of health would repel anything

like contagion. During the first part of our voyage, she suffered

considerably from sea-sickness; but got along very…

no possible nearness; nor any relation between your spiritual affinities

and hers. The antipodes are not farther apart," said I, in return;

"therefore, nothing that has befallen her can be ominous as to you."

"I trust not," she gravely answered, as we left the room together.

To my inquiry if I could serve her in any way, in the present matter,

she simply requested me to send a respectable undertaker, who would

daughter, in whom all his happiness and affection centered; he was

unwilling to leave her behind, and therefore brought her to the court of

Persia. Her mother died while she was yet an infant; she was now in the

sixteenth year of her age, and her name was ALMEIDA. She was beautiful

as the daughters of Paradise, and gentle as the breezes of the spring;

her mind was without stain, and her manners were without art.…
