from darnlfv a ovel chapter ii patient yourself madam and pardon me sharspeare now doubtless every romancereading ptrion ioto whose hands this book may fell will conclude aud determine and feel perfectly convinced in their own minds that the scream mentioned in the last chapter announces no less important a being than the heroine of the tale and will lie very much surprised as well as disap pointed to heap that when the traveller rode through the opeu gaie into the little garden attached to tho cottage he per ceived a group which certainly did not derive any interest it might possess from the graces of youth and beauty it consisted simply of an old woman of the poorest class striving with weak hands to stay a stout rosy youth of meancouuteuance but good apparel from repeating a buffet he had bestowed upon the third person of the group a venerable old man who seemed little calculated to resist his violence an gry words were evidently still passing on both parts aud before the traveller could hear to what they referred the youth pass ed the woman and struck the old man a second blow which levelled him with the ground if ouo might judge from that travellers appearance he had seen many a sight of danger and of horror but there was some thing in the view of the old mans white hair mingling with the mould of the earth that blanched his cheek and made his blood run cold in a moment he was o5 his horse and by the young mnnssidc how now sirvilliau cried he art thou mad to strike thy father hes no father of mine replied the sturdy youth turning away his head with a sort of dodged feeliug of shame hes no father of miue im better come cried the traveller then thy father might blush to own thee strike au old man like that get thee gone quick lest i flay thee get thee rone thyself answered the other his feeling of reprehension being quickly fled and turuing sharply rouud with an air of effrontery which nought hut the iusoleoce of office could inspire he added who art thou with thy get thee gooes i am here in right of sir payan wilctoo to turn these old vermin out so get thee gone along with them and he ran his eye over the strangers simple garb with a sneer of sturdy defiance the traveller gazed at him for a mo ment as if in astonishment at his daring then with a motion as quick as light laid one hand upon the yeomans collar the other upon the thick baud of his kersey slop breeches raised him from the ground and giving him one swing back to allow his arms their full sweep he pitched him u once over the low wall of the garden in to the heath bushes beyond without affording a look to his prostrate adversary the stranger proceeded to as sist the old man in rising and amid the blessings of the gond dame conveyed him into the cottage he then returned to the little garden lest his horse should commit any ravages ppou the scanty provision of tho old couple for he was it seems too good a soldier even to allow his horse 10 iivc by plunder and while tying him to the gatepost his eye naturally turned to the bushes into which ho had throwu his opponent the young man had just risen on his feet and iu unutterable rage was stamp ing furiously on the ground without how- over daring to reenter the precincts from which lie had been so unceremoniously ex pelled tho stranger contented himself wiili observing that he was not much hurt and after letting his eye dwell for a mo ment on thecogoizance of a serpent twin ed round a crane which was embroidered 0rnhlwawaicaaihcajrain entered the cottage while the other proceeded slowly over the common every now and theu turning round to shake his clenched fist to wards the gardeu iu the last struggles of impotent passion well good father how fares it with thee demanded the traveller approach ing the old man 1 fear that young vil lain has hurt thee nay sir nay replied the othor not so in faith he did not strike hard an old mans limbs are 6oon overthrown ah well i remember the day when 1 would have whacked a score of them but im broken now kate give his worship the settle jfur hoy had seen him iili his hand against his father faith hed have broken bis pate though your worship soon couviuced him gods blessing upon your head for it the stranger silently sat himself down ii the settle which the old woman puced for him with a thousand thanks and itu- latioos and suffered them to proceed un disturbed with all the garrullity of ge while his own thoughts seemed from tama uoappareut cause to have ivuurierc far upou a different track whether thu he wift wiugs of memory had retraced n a moment a space that in the dull march of line had occupied many a long year or that the lightning speed of hope had alrea dy borne him to a goal which was still far beyond probabilitys short view matters little most likely it was oue or the oil er ior the present 13 but a point to which bit little thought appertains while the tulud hovers backwatds and forwards between the past and the future expendiug the tore of its regrets upon the one aud west ing all its wishes on the other he awoke viih a sigh but tell me said he to the old man what was tho cause of all uis why heaven bless your worship replied the cottager who had been talking all the time i have just been telliug you nay but i mean why you came to live here said the traveller for this is but a poor place and he glanced his eye over too interior of the cottage which was wretched enough its floor formed of hardcued clay its small lattice windows boasting no glass in the wicker frames of which they were composed but showing in its place some thin plates of horn common enough in the meaner cottages f those times admitting but a dull and miserable light to tho interior its bare walls of lath through the crevices of which appeared the mud that had been plastered on the outside all gave an air of poverty and uucomfort difficult to find in the poorest english cot tage of today i thitik you said that you had been in better circumstances conti nued the traveller i did not say so your worship re plied the old man but it was easy to guess yet for twelve lous years havel known little but misery i was theu gate- porter to my good lord fitzhcruard at chilham castle here hard by your wor ship kuows it doubtless oh twas a fair place in those days for my lord kept great state aod never a day but what we had the tiltyard full of gallants who would hear away the ring from the best in the land my old lord could haudle a lance well too though he waxed aged but twas my young lord osborne that was the darling of our hearts poor youth he was not then fourteen yet so strong hed break a lance and bide a buffet with the best hes over the seas now alas and they say obliged to win his foot at the swords point nay how so asked the traveller if he were heir of chilham castle how is it he fairs so hardly this lord os- borue we called him still lord osborne answered the old woman for 1 was his nurse when he was young and his christ ened name was osborne but his title was lord darulcy by those who called him properly cod bless him for ever now richard tell his honour bow all the misfortunes happened 11 twill hut tire his honour said the old man in his young day he must have heard how empsou and dudley the two blackest traitors that ever england had wont through all the country picking holes in every houesc mans coat and se questrating their estates as twas then call ed lord bless thee kate his worship knows it all i have heard something of the matter hut i would fiiiu understand it more parti cularly said the stranger 1 had learn ed that the sequestrated esates had beeu restored aud the fiues remitted since this young king was upon the throne 4 r th cm ay truly sir the main answered the old man but there were some men who being in the courts dis pleasure were nt likely to have justice done them such a one was my good lord aud master who they say had heeu heard to declare that he held perky n war- becks title as good as king harry the se venths so when they proved the penal statutes against him as they called it in stead of calling for a 6oe which every pea sant on his land would have brought his mite to pay they took tho whole estate and left him a beggar in his ae but that was not the worst for doubtless the whole would have been given back again wheti the young king did justice ou empson and dudley hut malice anc as tins sequestration was a not an avarice like the ret in stead of transferrin the estate to the kill c to one sir payan gallows was made own hand they gave it ilcton who if ever a higher than hainans would well grace it this man has many a friend at the court gaiued they say by foul means and though much stir was made some eight years rrooe by the lord stafford
