twelve slow strokes,and at the last each thrust his sword yet highertoward the banner. The last stroke was still echoing in the air, butthe torches, the table, and the knights were gone.Roger was standing at the bow-window in hisfathers library, looking out over the fields ofsnow. He heard the last echo grow fainter,fainter, and then vanish. He held somethingclutched in his left hand. He opened his fingersand looked down at it. It was a little gold spur, ofan old-fashioned pattern and curiously wrought.He turned and walked over to the fireplace.The book bound in green and gold still lay on thetiger rug where he had left it. He looked aboutthe room. There was no doubt it was his fatherslibrary. Yes, I m wide awake, said he, aloud,and I m certainly here at home. He lookeddown at the spur again. Yet here s the spurthey gave me; so it must be true. I ve only tokeep it safe, and want one of them very much,and he 11 come to me. And more than that, I,too, am a Knight of the Golden Spur! END.
