Gitstou Dantree stood very pale, listening to this lengthy and rapid harangue, bis presentiments were all true th n â€" sometl.iug was going to occur. At the last hour, the glit- tering prize fur which he had fought and won was to be snatched from him. His lips were set hard, and there was a dull red glow not good to see about bis black eyes.

Gaalon Dantree looked at him, staggered a httle. Tbe marriage was not to be stopped, then. He drew a long itense breath of relief, 'This is all very strange. I wiah you would explain. I'll go with you to Castleford â€" it will kill tbe interven ing time as well as anything elae, but, I'd rather net go in the dark.' 'You must. Take my word for it Daatrea it is necessary.
