seen sticking 6iit ofi,is hrck pockets.
All the searching that has boen done for the
outlaw does not soon to have worried him If
the least. and the fact tliat he hangs abont his
old haunts' and Keeps close watch on his
father-in.isw's hohso, wliere his wife is stay.

be. as the. villagers believe. to stenl
his wife, and force her into submission

supplanted In few hours by more sys-

of the pnrty crawled forward on his stomach
to reconnoItre. He intended looking in at
q window where n streak OF light could
be seen. In crawling through the gate
the hammer OF his gun caught In q vine and
the weapon went,off. The night was still. the
nerves Of the watchers wore strained with ex-
