Halford turned a i from the general and realized w no more shotshsdbeenfirednunthetre-w- let‘. and whiyono boat hld bem low. ered. The s t had been a waning. The fact. that the genera-i had been hit by it had been due to lurk- or Lll-luck—ratlie.r than judgment.

The waming had been intended for the men on the beach who lmd been left to guard the small boats used by Wolff's landing party. Na- illfflilv Halford. when he made h‘: plan, had not known about these men. He had no means of knowing.

The two men hid separated, one go nrz along the beach to the norih_ and the ofher to the south. Hal- fcrd iiud landed to the south of the Hon v of Birds.

The mun hull not bothered t0 shout u uzu-iihig to his comrade. He hud prrf.‘i'i"crl in approach stealth- ily. to take Halford unawares.

it was weakness rather than db- sipation of his rage that saved the man's lzfe. The strength. which had been quxe artificial. went sudden- ly out of Ilulfords fingers, and he sat on h s heels growling like g bent ti prey.

But his victim lay stili. A black tide of unconsciousness had merci- fully engulfed him,

Halfcrds brain worked with pre- ternaiiucil speed and precision. He “ant ml". gr.‘ the man's pockets, and came cu a gun. He pocketed it. The gun whzch he had taken from Huber was soaked and useless. He threw it into the sea,

He dmugi-d the unconsckrus nun lnio the shcltter of the cliffs. Then he peer-rd along the beach.

The other man W85 not in light. He was still retreating from Hal- fm-d, peering out to sea. for some sign or the swimmers.

Conszdering Halfordi stoic of mind, perhaps it was Just u well for him,

Halfcrd did not go along the beach. He started to climb up the clifis, which at this point were 10w- tr and (11:10! to scale.

H1‘ ccuvied his ivav over the rocks, his breath coming in great gulps. His (1,. cs were fixed and glassy. and his mind held only one thought- neyenge on Herman Wolff.

BACK TO THE HOUSE OI Till BIRDS

The car rushed down lie hillside. Shane was driving fast but not recklexsiy-a. difficult mmblnation to contrive on this road. H: needed Lil his‘ wits about him.

1n the back o-f tile car, Herr Schu- man,“ extracted a. large watch from hi; waistcoat pocket and peered at the face, He grunted.

“We are late. Your father will be worried, my dear."

He spoke to Marthe.

Shane said; "We should be there in lanother two hours, l! all goes Wei ."

He spoke our-fly. Something was logging his nerves. There were many reasons WhlCh made it imperative for them to be at the House of the Birds a; soon as possible. There was s fear m Shane's uund which grew with every pa. mixture. He could not define it. Brut it. was them nagging at his nerves.

This is an exemple: You will need six medium-sized carrots, B eggs, two tablespoonfuls butter, 2 tablespoonfuls flour. a. cupful of grated cheese. a dish of nutmeg. pe per and salt to taste. and one yok of egg. 3-4- int milk.

Clean and llgiht scrape the ca:- rots, then cut into strips and after this cut across again into dice. Oook the carrots in salted water till tender, about half an hour.

Meanwhile poacl the eggs and make a sauce. Put the flour and butter into a clean saucepan and stir over the fire for five minutes.
