While arranging Margaret’s hair, Lewis, Our Mutual Girl’s maid, drops a mirror to the floor and breaks it. The maid, being superstitious, is much frightened at this, and decides to go to a fortune-teller to find out what to do about the matter. Margaret, becoming curious herself, goes with Madge Travers to see Madame Dolores, a seeress. Madame Dolores assures Margaret that she will not be affected by the incident, but warns her that she is beset by a grave danger, and should go to the seaside. At the Highlands Margaret mounts an observation tower to watch the ships out at sea. The watchman leaves at sunset for the day, and, not knowing that Margaret is in the tower, locks her in. Margaret manages to attract Dunbar’s attention, and the Man of Mystery, with bow and arrow, shoots a cord to her. A rope ladder is attached to the cord. Margaret then makes her way, hand under hand, to safety.
