A WALK IN THE MOONLIGHT.
The Court at Ballarook was over, and Gavan Blake turned his horses' heads in a direction he had never taken before--along the road to Kuryong.

As he drove along, his thoughts were anything but pleasant.
Behind him always stalked the grim spectre of detection and arrest; and, even should a lucky windfall help to pay his debts, he could not save the money either to buy a practice in Sydney or to maintain himself while he was building one up.

He thought of the pitiful smallness of his chances at Tarrong, and then of Ellen Harriott.

What should he do about her?
Well, sufficient unto the day was the evil thereof.
