CHAPTER X
?11?
The Lady of the Hidden Face.
Next morning at ten, the door boy
it his iodgings informed Jack that a
'ady was waiting to see him in the
i^arlor. The lady wa? deeply veiled.
She did not speak, but arose as he
entered the room and handed him a
note. She was tall and erect with a
fine carriage. Her silence was impres
sive, her costume admirable.
] The note in a script unfamiliar to
the young man was as follows:
"You will find Margaret waiting in
a coach at eleven today at the corner i
of Harley street and Twickenham
r road."
The veiled lady walked to the door
t and turned and stood looking at him.
Her attitude said clearly: "Well,
; what is your answer?"
"I will be there at eleven," said the
I young man.
The veiled lady nodded, as if to Indi
cate that her mission was ended, and
withdrew.
Jack was thrilled by the informa
tion, but wondered why it was so
: wrapped !n mystery. Not ten minutes
had passed after the departure of the
veiled lady when a messenger came
with a note from Sir Benjamin Hare.
In a cordial tone, if Invited Jack to
breakfast at the Almack club at
twelve-thirty. The young man re
turned his acceptance by the same
i^essenger, and in his best morning
s^it went to meet Margaret. A cab
conveyed him to the corner named. ?
There was the coach with shades
drawn low, waiting. A footman stood
near it. The door was opened and he
saw Margaret looking out at him and
shaking her hand.
"You see what a sly thing I am!"
she said wtien, the greetings over, he
sat by her side and the coach was
moving. "A London girl knows how
(f to get her way. She is terribly wise,
Jack."
"But, tell me, who was the veiled
lady?"
"A go-between. She makes her liv
ing that way. She Is wise, discreet
and reliable. There is employment for
many such in this wicked city. I feel
disgraced, Jack. I hope you will not
think that I am accustomed to dark
and secret ways. This has worried
and distressed me, but I had to see
you."
??And I was longing for a look at
you," he said.
?1 was sure you would not know
how to pull these ropes of Intrigue.
I have heard all about them. I could
n't help that, you know, and be a
young lady who Is quite alive."
"Our time l8 short and I have much
to say," said Jack. "I am to break
fast with your father at the Almack
club at twelve-thirty."
She clapped her hands and said,
with a laughing face, "I knew he
would ask you!"
"Margaret, I want to take you to
America with the approval of your
father, if possible, and without it, if
necessary.
"I think you will get his approval,"
said the girl, with enthusiasm. "He
has heard all about the duel. He says
every one he met, of the court party,
last evening, was speaking of It.
They agree that the old general
needed that lesson. Jack, how proud
I am of you!"
She pressed his hand In both of
hers. '
"I couldn't help knowing how to
shoot," he answered. "And I would
not be worthy to touch this fair hand
of yours if I had failed to resent an
Insult."
ji Although he is a friend of the gen
eral, my father was pleased," she
went on. "He calls you a good sport.
'A young man of high spirit who Is
not to be played with,' that Is what he
said. Now, Jack, if you do hot stick
too hard on principles ? If you can
yield only a little, I am sure he will
let us be married."
"I am eager to hear what he may
jay now." said Jack. "Whatever it
may be, let us stick together and go
to America and be happy. It would be
a dark world without you. May I see
you tomorrow T
"At the same hour and place," she
answered.
They talked of the home they would
have in Philadelphia and planned its
garden, Jack having told of the site
he had bought with great trees and a
river view. They spent an hour which
lent Its abundant happiness to many
a long year and when they parted,
soon after twelve o'clock, Jack hur
ried away to keep his appointment.
Sir Benjamin received the young
man with a warm greeting and friend
ly words. Their breakfast was served
In a small room where they were alone
together, and when they were seated
the baronet observed : < ? -
K "I have heard of the duel. It has
Lot some of the best tongues In Eng
land wagging In praise of 'tee *?nkee
boy/ One would scarcely have ex
oected that."
I' "No, I was prepared to ron for my
life? not that I planned to do any great
damage,' said Jack.
"Ton can shoot atralght? that Is evi
dent. They call your delivery of that
ballet swift, accurate and merciful.
y?ur behavior has pleased some very
eminent people. The blustering talk
of the general excltles no sympathy
here. In London, strangers are not
likely to be treated as you were."
"If I did not believe that I should
be leaving It," said Jack. "I should
not like to take up dueling for an
amusement, as some men have done in
France."
"You are a well-built man Inside and
out," Sir Benjamin .answered. . "You
might have a great future in England.
I speak advisedly."
Their talk had taken a turn quite
unexpected. It flattered the young
man.' He blushed and answered :
"Sir Benjamin, I have no great* faith
in my talents."
"On terms which I would call easy,
you could have fame, honor and riches,
I would Bay."
"At present I want only your daugh
ter. - As to the rest, I shall make my
self content with what may naturally
come to me."
"And let me name the terms on
which I should be glad to welcome
you to my family."
"What are the terms?"
"Loyalty to your king and a will to
understand and assist his plans."
"I .could not follow him unless he
will change his plans."
The baronet put down his fork and
looked up at the young man. "Do you
really mean what you say?" he .< de
manded. "Is it so difficult for you to
do your duty as a British subject T*
"Sir Benjamin, always I have been
taught that It Is the duty of a British
subject to resist oppression. The plans
of the king are oppressive. I cannot
fall In with them. I love Margaret as
I love my life, but I must keep myself
worthy of her. If I could think so
well of my conduct, it Is because 1
have principles that are Inviolable."
"At least I hope you would promise
me not to take up arms against the
king."
"Please don't ask me to do that. It
would grlevef me to fight against Eng
land. I hope it may never be, but
I would rather fight than submit to
tyranny."
The baronet made no reply* to this
declaration so firmly made. , A new
look came into his face. Indignation
and resentment were there, but he did
not forget the duty of a host. He
began to speak of other things. The
breakfast went on to its end In an at
mosphere of cool politeness. ?
When they were out upon the street
together, Sir Benjamin turned to him
and said :
"Now that we are on neutral ground,
I want to say that you Americans are
a stiff-necked iot of people. You are
not like any other breed of men. I
am done with you. My way cannot be
yOurs. Let us part as friends and
gentlemen ought to part. I say good
by with a eense of regret. I shall
never forget your service to my wife
and daughter.**
"Think not of that," said the young
man. "What I did for them I would
do for any one who needed my help."
"I have to ask you to give up all
hope of marrying my daughter."
"That I cannot do," said Jack. "Over
that hope I have no control. I might
as well promise not to breathe."
"But I must ask you to give me
your word as a gentleman that you
will hold no further communication
with her."
"Sir Benjamin, I shall be frank with
you. It is an unfair request. I cannot
agree to it."
"What do you say?" the Englishman
asked in a tone of astonishment, and
his query was emphasized with a
firm tap of his cane on the pavement.
"I hate to displease you, sir, but
If I made such a promise, I would be
sure to break It."
^Then, sir, I shall see to It that you
have no opportunity to oppose my will."
In spite of his fine restraint, the eyes
of the baronet glowed with anger, as
be quickly turned from the young man
and hurried away.
Jack turned his steps toward Frank
lin's door. ,jl
"I am like the lana of Goshen amid
i
thef plagues xof Egypt," said Franklin,
when the young man was admitted
to his office. "My gout Is gone and I
am in good spirits In spite of your ad
venture."
"And I suppose you will scold me for
.the adventure."
"You will scold yourself when the
consequences have arrived. They will be
sure to give you a spanking. The deed
is done, and well done. On the whole
I think it has been good for the cause,
but bad for you."
"Why?"
"You may have to run out of Eng
land to save your neck and the face
of the king. He was there, I believe?^
"Yes, sir." !? \ '
"The injured lad Is in a bad way.
The wound caught an Infection. ' Inj
tense fever and swelling have set In]
I helped Sir John Prlngle to amputate
the arm this afternoon, but even that
may not save the patient. Here Is a
storm to warn the wandering linnet
I to his shade. A ship goes tomorrow
evening. Get ready to take It In that
case your marriage will have to be
delayed. Rush men are often com*
pelled to live on hope and die fast
ing."
"With Sir Benjamin, the duel has
been a help Instead of a hindrance,"
said the young man. "My stubborn
sotil has been the great obstacle."
Then he told of his interview with
Sir Benjamin Hare.
Franklin put his hand on Jack's
shoulder and said with a smile:
"My son, I love you. I could wish
you to be no different. Cheer up. Time
will lay the dust, and perhaps sooner
than you think."
"I hope to see Margaret tomorrow
morning." ]?
"Ah, then, 'what Grecian arts of soft
persuasion !' " Franklin quoted. "I hope
that she, too, will follow the gree^t
star In the West I"
"I hope so, but I greatly fear that
our meeting will be prevented.'*
CHAPTER XI

note from Preston. It said:
