" Two nights later St. Hilda, reading by her fire, heard a tap onher window-pane, and, looking up, saw Jason's pale face outside. She ran to the door, and the boy stumbled wearily toward thethreshold and stopped with a look of fear and piteous appeal. Shestretched out her arms to him, and, broken at last, the boy sankat her feet, and, with his head in her lap, sobbed out of hisheart the truth. XXIX St. Hilda herself took Jason back to the Blue-grass, took him tothe gray frowning prison at the c...apital, and with streaming eyeswatched the iron gates close between them. Then she went home, sent for John Burnham, and within an hour both started working forthe boy's freedom, for Jason must keep on with his studies, and, with Steve Hawn in jail, must help his mother. Through Gray'sinfluence Colonel Pendleton, and through Marjorie's, Mrs. Pendleton as well, offered to go sponsors for the boy's appearanceat his trial. The man from the Pennyroyal who sat in thegovernor's chair, and even the successor to the autocrat who wastrying to pre-empt that seat, gave letters to help, and before anyprison pallor could touch the boy's sun-tanned face he was out inthe open air once more on bail.
