If he only hadn’t smashed Tellef’s fishing rod yesterday! He revolved the means which might effect his purpose—he saw but one—this was the death of the marchioness. The effect which the latter part of this sentence had upon the prisoners in the vault, may be more easily imagined than described. They were now in total darkness in this mansion of the murdered, without means of escape, and in momentary expectation of sharing a fate similar to that of the wretched objects around them.

He thought the door had caught but he could not be sure. But soon he lost interest, for a new danger threatened him. It was one which he had failed to foresee when he had planned this means of escape. “Yes, for the most part, as their horses were fresher.
