ssive and deliberate,
shaking up the whole fabric of the social structure in its search for
the comrades, combing out the Mercenaries, the labor castes, and all its
secret services, punishing without mercy and without malice, suffering
in silence all retaliations that were made upon it, and filling the gaps
in its fighting line as fast as they appeared. And hand in hand with

* This is the end of the Everhard Manuscript. It breaks off
abruptly in the middle of a sentence. She must have
received warning of the coming of the Mercenaries, for she
had time safely to hide the Manuscript before she fled or
was captured. It is to be regretted that she did not live
to complete her narrative, for then, undoubtedly, would have
been cleared away the mystery that has shrouded for seven
centuries the execution of Ernest Everhard.
