crowd, the confusion, the young lord in
flight, the constables pursuing, were all
clearly perceiyable by those above Some
twelve or fourteen armed men ran down
at full speed; and just as Roger Dutton saw
that he would be obliged to turn and face
his pursuers, his friends came up, giving
him. the assistance Of force that the adj
versary dared not attack.


Setting down the fair burden, whose hand
was instantly caught by Allan, the harper,
Dutton exclaimed, Cup with her to the
castle, Allan--quick!" and then turning to-
wards the obnoxious officers of the Pied
poudre Court, he cried, "Back hounds
back to your kennel, and tell John Clan
vile that he shall be punished by those
who have Alright to punish him; and, more
over, that if | catch him beyond the walls
of Chester, will cut his eals like bob
tailed cur, that all men may know who il
is when they meet with the liquorish and
unjust Judge"


/" Long live Roger Dutton, gay Roger
Dutton. Long live the minstrel's friend
A Dutton forever /! a Dutton forever!'' cried
the crowd; and, while the object Of theil
gratulations, bent his steps onward to the
castle, little knowing the unpleasant recep
ton that was prepared for him, the consta-
bles retreated, grumbling and abusive, and
the mob dispersed to bear the news Of Ro-
ger Dutton's exploit thronghi the fair, and
to celebrate his name that night with songs
and merriment
