BEGIN HERE TODAY Colonel Holies, soldier and adventurer, returns to England, t te land of his when war is deviated with Hol_J. He comes to lodge with Martha Quinn, hostess of the Paul's Head, in Paul’s Yard. London, The Colonel writes for an audience with his old friend. His Grace of Albemarle, whom he has not s-rn for ten rears. While waiting in the hall of the Duke's residence for Albemark to receive him, the Colonel hears Mr. Pepys of the navy office tell a friend of the infatuation of His Grace of Buckingham for Miss Karouharson, actress playing at the Duke's House. Holies marvels that in time of war, with the plague threatening London the Town should V>e concerned with the affairs of a playhouse woman Then the usher calls for ".Mr Holies." NOW GO ON WITH THE STOKY lEN years!" said the Duke 111 slowly, a man bemused. “Ten * I years!" he said again, and liis gentle almost sorrowing eyes scanned his visitor from foot to crown. “But 6it, man, sit,” he urged. Waving him to the armchair set at the table so as to face the Duke's own. "How like your father you are grown!" the Duke said at last. "That will be something gained, where all else is but a tale of loss.” "Aye! You bear it writ plain upon you," the Duke sadly agreed, and again there broke from him that plaintive, "God save us!" Randal Holies the elder had been Monk’s dearest friend. Both natives
ALBEMARLE WAVED THE COLONEL BACK TO HIS CHAIR. ©f Portheridge in Devon, they had fcrrovn to manhood together. And though political opinions then divided them—for Monk was a King’s man In those far-off days, whilst the older Holies had gone to Parliament a republican—yet their friendship had remained undiminished. When Monk at last in ’46 acepted a command from Cromwell in the Irish service, it was the influence of Holies which had procured both the offer and its acceptance. loiter, when Holies the younger decided for a trade of arms, it was under the aegis of Monk that he had taken service, and it was due Ip!

Thousands of housewives have found that they ran save two-thirds of the money usually spent for cough prepara ttons, by using this well-known old recipe for making cough syrup.

as much to Monk's friendship as to his own abilities that he had found himself a Captain after Dunbar and a Colonel after Worcester. Had he but chosen to continue under' the guidance of his father's friend, he might today have found himself in very different case. The thought w r as so uppermost now in the Duke’s mind that he could not repress its utterance. Holies sighed. “Do I know it? But . . .” He broke off. "The answer makes a weary story and a long one. By your leave, let us neglect It. Your grace lias had my letter. That Is plain, since I am here. Therefore you are acquainted with \my‘ situation.” "It grieved me, Randal, more deeply, I think, than anything I can remember. But why did you not write sooner? Why did you come vainly knocking at my door to be turned away by lackeys?” “I had not realized how inaccessible you are grown. The Duke’s glance sharpened. “Do you say that bitterly?” Holies almost bounded from his seat. “NaJ-—on my soul! I vow I am incapable of that, however low I may have come. What you have, you have earned. I rejoice in your greatness as must every man who loves you.” With mock cynicism as if cover up any excessive emotion he might have used, he added: “I must, since it is now my only hope. Shorn of it I might as well cast myself from Lon don bridge.” "We must talk,” he said presently. "There is much to say." And, in his abrupt fashion, he added the question: "You’ll stay to dine?” "That is an invitation I'd not refuse even from an enemy.” His grace tinkled a little silver be!. The usher appeared. "Who waits in the anteroom?” Came from the usher a string of names and titles, all of them distinguished, some imposing. "Say to them with my regrets that 1 can receive none before I dine. Bid those whose business presses to seek me again this afternoon.” Then Albemarle turned to Holies. “Tell me now.” he invited, "what is the reason of youg coming home?” “The war. Could I continue in Dutch service, even if the Dutch had made it possible, which they did not? For the last three months it has been impossible for an Englishman to show his face in the streets of The Hague without lieing subjected to insult.’ If he were so rash as to resent and punish it, he placed himself at the mercy of the authorities, which were never reluctant to make an example of him. That is one reason. The other is that England is in danger, that she needs the sword of her every son, and in such pass should be ready to afford me employment. You need officers, I learn —experienced officers. . . “That’s true enough. God knows!” Albemarle interrupted him, on a note of bitterness. "My anteroom is thronged with young men of birth who come to me commended by the Duke of This and the Earl of That, and sometimes by His Majesty himself, for whom I am desired to provide commissions that will enable these graceful bawcocks to command their betters . . He broke off, per reiving, perhaps that his feelings were sweeping him beyond the bounds of his usual circumspection. “But, as you say,” he ended presently, "of experienced officers there is a sorry lack. Yet that Is not a circumstance upon which you are warranted to build, my friend.” Holies stared blankly. "How . . .?" he was beginning, when Albemarle r sumed. at once explaining his own words and answering the unspoken question.
“If you think that et'en in this hour of need there is no employment for such men as you in England's service,” he said in his slow, deep voice, “you can have no knowledge of what has been happening here whilst you have been abroad. In these past ten years. Randal. I have often thought you might be dead. And I ask myself, all things being as they are, whether as your friend I have cause, real cause, to rejoice at seeing you alive.” Holies was aghast. “Test me, and you shall not be disappointed. I’ll do you no discredit.” He had risen in his excitement. Albemarle waved the Colonel back to his chair. “I nothing doubt it. T know your nature, and it is a nature T would trust. I know your talents, partly from thf early promise that you showed, partly from the opinion held of you at one time in Holland.” He paused, and sighed. “God knows I need such men as you, need them urgently; and I would use you thankfully. But . . .” “But what, sir? In God's name?’ The heavy, pursed lips parted again, the raised black eyebrows resumed their level. “T cannot do so without exposing you to the very worst of dangers.” “Dangers?” Holies laughed. “I see that you do not understand. Tou do not realize that you bear a name inscribed on a certain roll of vengeance.” “You mean my father’s?” The Colonel was incredulous. "Your father’s—aye. It is misfortunate he should named you after him. But there it is,” the de liberate, ponderous voice continued. “The name of Randal Holies is on the warrant for the execution of the late King. It would have provided a warrant for your father’s own death had he lived long enough. Yourself you have borne arms for the Parliament against our present sovereign. In England It is only by living in the eompletest obscurity that you'll be allowed to live at all. And you ask me to give you a command, to expose you prominently to the public gaze—to the royal eye and the royal memory, which in these' matters is unfading.” "But the act of indemnity?” cried Holies, aghast, seeing his high hopes crumbling into ashes. "Pshaw.”’ Albemarle’s Up curled a little. “Where have you lived at all thaUyou do not know wjiat has bef&llAi those whom It covered?” He

ceptlons, and the Lords went further by increasing the exceptions to include all who had been concerned in ' the late king's trial and sundry others who had not. And that was a bill to indemnity! It was followed by the King’s proclamation demanding the surrender within fourteen days of all those who had been concerned in his father's death. The matter was represented as a mere formality. Most were wise enough to mistrust It, and leave the country. But a score obeyed, conceiving that they would escape with some light punishment.” He paused a moment, sinking back into his chair. A little smile twisted the lips of this man who had no sense ! of humor. “It was announced that those who j had not surrendered were excluded from the Bill of Indemnity, whilst, as ! for those who having surrendered were to be supposed included in it, a i loyal jury found a true bill against '■ them. They were tried, convicted, ' and sentenced to death. Major General Harrison was the first of them to suffer. He was disemboweled over i yonder at Charing Cross. Others fol-' lowed, until the people, nauseated by : the spectacle provided daily, began to ' murmur. Then a halt was called. Thf+e was a pause, at the end of which the executioners began again. Nor were those sentenced in that year | the only ones. Others were indicted subsequently. Lambert and Vane were ■ not brought to trial until ’62. Nor were they the last. And It may be that we have not reached the end even j yet." (Continued in OuT Next lamel
