Ah! here he comes." As he spoke Francisco entered the room with consternation written on his face.
"Outram," he gasped, "some one must have been in the throne chamber where we slept last night.

All the rifles have gone, ours and those of the Settlement men also." "Great heavens!" said Leonard, "but you were watching." "I suppose that I must have dozed for a few moments," answered the priest; "it is awful, awful; they are gone and we are weaponless." "Oh! can we not escape ?" moaned Juanna.
"There is no hope of it," answered Leonard gloomily.
