Something slapped softly down upon the withers of his liorsc. His hand shot out to clutch it ere it fell thence, and he found himself bold- ing a little tasselled glove.

Tliero was a little scream from above. “My glove!" she cried. "I've dropped it. Randal, please!" Slie ivat-i leaning far out, reaching down a beseccliing hand.
