Out of Dartmoor

Convict No. fiSOO, whot?e uame was
James Sbellinyne, was working on the
moor farm with others when the fog
came up. It came rolling across the
, wide moor like a billow of smoke
lrora a cannon's mouth. One minute
there was sunshine over all, with the
horizon live miles away; in another the
guards were calling out to each other
nnd hustling the convicts into liue, and
no man's eyes could penetrate that fog
a distanoo of ten feet. Sbelburne drop
ped his spade and ran. He wn grab
bed at by oilier convicts, fired at by
guards, and he ran against and knock
d over two or three men, but he es
capedthat is, he got away from the
buu-h of prisoners herded together like
to many cattle while the guards sent to
the prison for re-euforcemcnts to march
them in.
There have been few escapes from
Dartmoor. No man ever got away
from there unless aided by the fog. A
fog was what James Suelburne had
waited and hoped and prayed for for
five years. For four years he had been
Immured behind the stone wajls. He
had doue his best to gain the confi
dence of the prison officials, and be
had accomplished it. If he softly raved
and cursed at night, tempted to suicide
hundred times over, none of the
warders suspected it By day be was
patient, respectful and uncomplaining.
And so it came to pass that when toe
spring muster roll w,s made up of the
men who were to work on the farpis
outside the gates the warden said:
"Put down 6800. He la one of the
most trusty of the lot. He wouldn't
leave us if he could."
The convict ran blindly. He fell at
iiivery few yards, but Ue arose to speed
n again. -Presently be came to a bigh-
. way. A wagon was passing and Its
driver shouting warnings to those who
might be coming from the opposite di
rection. Bbelburne slipped behind and climb
ed in. There were a lot of empty bags
from the morning marketing, and he
covered himself up as well as he could.
The prison bell sounded, and the driv
er uttered a shout, but the fog held.
A Dartmoor fog may last ten minutes
er two hours. After an hour of steady
jogging the team turned off the main
road. Then Shelbume softly slipped
to the ground, broke his way through
the hedge and was running across a
, meadow when he came upon a cot
tage. A childish voice called out: ,
"You are one of the bad men from
the prison, but you needn't be afraid
'of me. I won't hurt you."
. A girl of seven or eight years was
neated on the doorstep not ten feet
away. He had overlooked her. She
sat humped up like an old woman, and
there was an okl look to her face. She
had her hands clasped around her knees

"Io yu know Low folks look when

"Yes, little girl," he replied as he
advanced and sat down beside her.
"What la your name? Are tbero folks
In the house?"
"I am Nancy." she said. "Father
went way, way off a year ago, and
mother is In there on the bed."
"And is your mother ill?"
"Does that moan sick? No, she isn't,
but she's been awful rfuiet this morn

the reason I haven't had any break

'Tfwr little girl!" he aaid as he bent

"Won't mother jpeak no more?"
"Never."
"And I'll have to go and live with
Aunt 5nrah at the Beeches?"
"Ve-i."
"Well, then. I'll go, but I don't want
to, for Aunt Sarah don't like me very
well. Yon come from where they shut
np the bad men, bnt yen. don't seem to
be bad."
"Not to very bad, I hope.' Linen to
me. I have a wife and little girl, way,
way off. I have not seen them for
years. I want to get to them. Will
you help me?"
"Why, of course I will," she replied.
"They muat he longing to see you.. If
you are hungry yon may eat all yon
want to. Do you want to go home id
those ugly clothes?"
"Gol forbid! My little girl would
run away from me la fear."
"Then you can take some clothes
that father left. Have you got any
money?"
"Not a farthing."
"Aunt Jarah aent us 10 the other
day. You shall have half of it."
The convict picked ber up and kissed
her, and when she saw tenrs In his
even she brushed them away with her
hand nnd said:
"If yon was a bad man you wouldn't
cry. Yes, you shall see your wife and
little girl again."
"And If the men come after me?"
"I won't tell."
Au hour later convict No. fifW left
