Perry; but his eyes wandered in to the
lighted parlor in search of very differ

no answer
The manager came back upon the pi

Perry quickly disnounted and bent
down over the crouching figure.
''Why herp!' he suddenly exclaimed
''your employer is faint. something's
gone wrong.
''Hush!'' was the low spoken, hurried
answer of the Englishman. ''Just beal

him to yonder sofa?'
Easily, between them, they bore the
slight, attenuated form of the old man

closed. and he seemed fallen into dees
swoon. Perry would have set cushion
under his head as they laid him down on
a broad. easy couch, but the manager
jerked it away, lowering the gray hairs
to the very level of the back, SO that the
mouth gaped wide and looked like death
itself.
'.Tust steady his head in that position

back in twinkling," said the manager
as he darted from the room and leapeG
hurriedly up the hall stairway.
Perry heard him rap at distant door
apparently at the southwest angle of the
big house. Then his voice was calling
'Mrs. Cowan! Mrs. Cowan! would you
have the goodness to come down quick

Then, before any answer could he

trailing skirts and light foot falls came
flashing down the stairway. Almost be.

in the room again, and with quick, inn
pulsive movement had thrown herself
on her knees by his side.
''Oh, papa! dear father! was afraic
of this! Let me take his head on my

Perry was standing holding his horse
by the curb as he spoke, facing the par

group of ranchlnen. Within, though
nearer the window than he had left him,
was the bent form of the owner of Dun

heard as he came forward. Before the
manager could answer, he was compel

and menacing. Finally he spoke.

sprang from the piazza and stood con-
fronting the sergeant, who was quietly
seated in the saddle, and the question
was promptly echoed by three or four
burly men who, in shirt sleeves and
various styles of undress, came tumbling
in the wake of their leader and stood

silent troopers.

approval, and Perrys eyes flashed with
anger at the insult. What reply he
might have made was checked by the
sight of Sergt. Leary throwing himself
from the saddle and tossing his reins to
