I was in a hurry to roach home. No wonder: for it was the wildest night Iliad over known in my life, and the country road over which I tool: my way was as had as country roads in general. Con- sequently I was walking at a great rate, with the collar of a rough coat over my ears. and a com fortor tiod over my soil. hat and under my chin. to keep it on and so protect my cars, when. sud- deuly, a man stood full in my path and caught me by the arm.

'III1llo.'said he. ‘ You're just in time; you are wanted at the Cross roads to—night.’

The voice was the voice of». ruilian.

l fancied myself attacked by a highwayman. I stood quite still, and strove to show him by my manner that I was able to protect myself.

‘ What the deuce am l wanted at the f'rnss roads for.” ’ said I. ‘ l'nlcss I choose it would be hard to get methere.’

I Ilut instead of producing a pistol and demand“

ing my money or my life, the man answered in altered tones :

' llcg pardon, I made a mistake. I thought it was my brother, and I wanted to frighten him. Bad night. sir.’

1 ‘ Very.’ said I.

‘ You don‘t know the time? ‘ he asked.

l ‘ It was sown when I left the train at l.————--,' ‘,l said. 1

' ' Thank yc.‘ said the man. ‘fiood night.’

If his object had hcdn mhbcry, probably he had

l

pour a man to be Worth the trouble.

‘ Ilnt, after all.’ I said. ‘probably he rpnhe the truth. A man may havc such a voice without being a highwayman. no doubt.‘

In ten minutes we worosplaahing through mud and rain sloug- tho road.

It was perfectly dark : now and then a red‘atar in the distance told us that a lamp was gleaming, through the rain in somn cptlage windbw, but, otherwise we would not have been Conscious of our p‘fipximity to an - habitation whatever.

At ast nearing 0 spot where the. road from iS-———-—-- crossed the road to I’-~——, we were indeed in 11s solitary a place as could be well imagined.

The house, which ahutted on the very angle of the roads. called in the familiar parlance the Cross roads, was the only one for some distance in either direction. and certainly on such a night we were not, likely to meet with many travellers.

All was silent as the grave. We stood quite still. In a moment Ben broke out in one of his merriest laughs—-

‘ Well,’ he said, ‘ how now? and have another nightmare ?' l lint hardly had the words escaped his lips gwhen a shriek broke on the air. and a woman's 5 voice. plainly coming from the iumrior of the cob, itagc. cried: ' ‘Ilclp. help. help i '

I ‘llen,’ said I. ‘we were wanted at the Cross , roads.‘

3 And themeech understanding the other. with- ‘:out more words we made our way to a window ‘through which a light shone. A muslin curtain l drags-(l the panes, but through it “'(‘Silw an awful : sig‘ It.

‘an hour. We went 11p stairs together.

“'e shared one room.

The moment lion's head touched the pillow he always went to sleep. That nightl followed his l example. 1 liutl did not tlt‘f‘p long without. a dream»«a [dream in which I felt a rough grip on lnyurm, and iwas roused by a voice crying in my car:

‘ It was so real. so pulp il-lc. that when I started, i-road awake. I actually believed that some one

{was in the r1111!)l~-~l.llt' man who hal met me on the road, perhaps. and who intended robbery or violence. lint when I had arisen an l lit a lamp,

the room was empty, except myself, and lien

snoring on his pillow.

I went to the door; it was lflt'kf‘tl. I went to the window ; the rush of rain against the pane! was all I board. I even \vent'ucross the passage to my mother's room. She was awake. There had been no unusual sound. she was sure.

Only a dream born by meeting with the strange man upon the road, I felt sure, had awakened me.

I went to bed and fell asleep again. Again was awakened by the same words; this time shriclted in my car by an unearthly voice.

‘ \Valtc up, wake up, wake up. Youarc wanted at the (lrnss roads.‘

I was on my feet once more, and caught lion's

hand as he came towards my bed.

‘ What ails you ? ' he cried“ ,

‘ Nothing,’ said I. ‘ Did you hear a voice.'

‘ Yours.’ said Ben. “yelling wake up. You fairly frightened mc.’

‘lien,’ said i, ' wait until I light the lamp. I heard another voice. the house or outside.’

So we lit. the lam 1 and searched in vain.

'Nightmarc,’ said lien, when I told him my story.

A all Ben plunged in between the blankets and was soon snoring again.

I. also. in ten minutes, sloptaasoundlyus be. fore; but the awakening came again.

i opened my eyes to see a girl standing, at the foot, nfmy bod-nu girl in white tubes with hairull about her shoulders, who wrung ‘her hands and cried :

‘Oh. wake up, wake up; you are wanted at the Cross roads. 1 ,

This time I started out of bed in a. cold perspiro utiuu. I trembled like a loaf. I had no doubt that i had received supernatural warning.

'Iica.’ I cried. ‘Ileu, for the third time I have been told thatl am wanted at'thc Cross roads. and I am going.’

There must be some one in l

or how many foes were upon them. i do not intend to describe the struggle : indeed I Icould not if] would. Iiut we were both strong 1 men, and inspiva by the cries of the helpless old man and the terrified girl. soon had one of thc’ villians bound and the other lying 1101‘s dc combat. l
