C The Abbot suddenly pretended friendliness,and proposed to his neph- , cw to go to Nottingham Castle, with a fine -escort and outfit, and join Prince John's guard. Noble hearts are the last to suspect treachery. . Robert believed his uncle, went to court, and as he bore a sealed letter from the Abbot, was graciously re ceived by the Prince. Lady Mildred grieved at his going, and being very modest, fearedhe would forget her when he saw the gay and grand la dies of the court. And her fears seemed welj foanded, for weeks and months passed without bringing her one word from Robert ; then came a short, cold letter, telling her she must give up all thought pi him as her husband,for he was about to mar ry one of Queen Elinor's dames of honor. Poor Mildred at first cried day and night ; then she grew rest- less, and walked about as if she were in a dream, and didn't see any body or any thing; then she became calm nnd haughty, and smiled sometimes, a chill sort of smile, and spoke in a strange, hard tone, as though all the sweetness had been drained from her voice in tears. Then the Abbot and the Prioress began to urge her to mar ry Sir Roger, of Don caster; and as she didn't care what became of her -now, she consented. Earl Robert's faithful friend, Little. John, .having heard that this wed ding was to be, went in great haste to Nottingham, to Earl Robert, who was true to his love.and had written , x to her many letters, which the Pri- oress had pocketed, and which the Abbot had used in imitating the hand writing when he forged the one that did the mischief at last. 4 ' When Robert heard the news, he set off at once for Yorkshire, never waiting for the Prince's leave. He rode day and night, but he reached A Kirkless Nunnery an hour too late. The wedding was ovcr.and Mildred, his dear 'little wife,' was lost to him forever. When Lady Doncaster hefrd that her cousin Robert had been constant and that in his anger and despair he had taken to the forests and becoTie an outlaw ; when she found her hus band to be a cowardly, dishonorable man,slle prayed that she might die. But after awhile God consoled rfer with the gift of a nnVilft Hltlo hr.y. " who from the first was like her, and " unlike his father, fn loving and car ing ft r her son, Lady Mildred found her only happiness. Sir Roger was proud of his handsome heir, but nev er was fond of him ; for when he said or did a mean thing, he could not bear the still scorn in the child's eyes .and lhedisdainful quiver of his lip. The castle of Sir Roger was near liarnesdaie, one of Robin Hood's forests; and when the freebooUng chief, was there, Sir Roger never dared to iournev or hunt with evei o large a train, without his wife to protect him. He kept his son al so very close, for he suspected him of having an admiration for the char acter, if not a taste for the life of Robin Hood. But one, morning, when Hurbert was about, twelve years old, he man aged to escape from the castle, and stole off into the greenwood. That day and night passed, yet he did not leturn. Sir Roger, after making all the seaches he dared, became con- vjneed that the lad had fallen into Robin Hood's hands, and groaned with the fear that they should nev er see him alive. But Lady Mild-: red said calmly, 'If Hurbert is with him, Sir Roger, he is safe; Robert - Fitzooth would never harm my own child.' They seat a herald to Robin Hood's camp to ransom and bring .back the lad. But the herald re lumed alone, saying that Hurbert was at the camp, but Robin Hood relused to receivcihe ransom. Then Sir Roger's fright and rage increas ed; but Lady Mildred smiled her sad, quiet smile, and looked out to- waid the forest. Suddenly there emerged from the wrtod, Robin Hood and his favorite comraoes, muuneu on gaily caparisoned steeds, and followed by fifty archers. They jiaused on a little hill, about a bow shot from the castle, and drew; to. ffether, as if consulting. Then Sir Uoger, growing, very pale, cried, Th villinn outlaw means to mur der our bov befoie our eyes?' But Lady Mildred still smiled her sad, qoiet smile, jnen me group ui horsemen parted, and from between llnbiu Hood and Little John came voung Hurbert, riding a beautiful tonv. as black as niht,'and as fleet as' the -wind; down the hill he dash ed, over the meadow; the warder hurried to let down the drawbridge andrtaise the portcdlus.and he came gallooping through, reined up in tfie .court, and flung himself laughing Wo his mother's arms. "VFHat night, in the great suppe.r haii of the castle, liurbuit told his adventure and praised Robin Hood till-bis father frowned and bade him "cease his chattering." T pro BE COXri!UED.
