When Erastus was satisfied that the
men were really gone, he unbarricaded
the door and returned to the anxious
group behind the bluff.
AT first they could not be persuaded
to 90 back to the house, the little girls
crying and begging their mother to
'.hitch right up and 60 back to the
States where at least their lives were
safe; but finally venturing far enough
out to take look, they saw approach
ing a man, whom Mrs. Richie recog-
nized as a neighbor, and were reas-
sured.
The neighbor proved to be another of
the eyicted souatters looking for shelter
for his houseless family, and when John
Parsons and Bill Richie reined up their
heated ponies in front of the cottage
that night, it was the only one standing
within circle of two miles on every
side, and dozen families with their
little stores of household goods were
domiciled within, or camping beneath
its hospitable shadow.
