u.s. hand.
as he grasred his late jailer's hand;
"goodby." a bit huskily. II thank
you-sir-for all your kindness'-
.Oh, that's all rightw said the warden
cheerily. Il try to do what's right;
that's all. Just you do that in the
future. Henry. and l shall never see you
here again. Good luck to YOU"
The great doors changed behind Henry
johnson as he stepped out of the prison,
where he had served six years. four
months and twenty-five days-not the
full sentence he had received, for the
benefit of the allowance for good be-
havior had been his. But six years is a
long time. long enough to change man
for better or worse
With new suit of clothes, ticket to
New York and twenty-three dollars
johnson walked away, once more a free
man.
He had looked forward to this day for
years. He had dreamed of it on his
hard bed in his lonely cell-the day on
which he would be liberated, on which
his revenge would begin.
1t was here at last. johnson was sur
prised at his sensations. Instead of
shouting. leaping or crying for joy, he
was walking along as quietly as though
setting out OH visit to friends.
All, friendsl The word brought him
to q realizing sense of what was before
him. Friends indeed! In all the wide
world had he q single friend?
With lightning rapidity the events Of
the last eight years swept before him.
He saw himself honored and respected,
holding position of trust in banking
house, laying by tidy little sum for
the home which was to be his-and hers
lin the near future.
Then came the scandal, the embezzle-
ment. the mystery, the plot which
wrecked his life and sent him to prison
for crime of which he was innocent.
Then, through that inexplicable channel
BY which news drifts from the outer
world to those in prison, be had learned
OF the prosperity of the man who in his
soul he was convinced had ruined him,
and OF his marriage to the woman John
son had loved.
The train for New York swept around
the curve. and the smoothly shaven man
in the i'll fitting clothes, with despair on
his face and hell in his heart, crept on
and SUNK into corner by the door. He
peered out the window to catch a last
glimpse of the high stone wall and the
sentry stalking solemnly up and down
How soon will be back?" he asked
himself.
Then as the gloom deepered on his
haggard face he inuttered. when l
come back it will not be for embezzle-
ment. but for murder"
, Fos- Johnson had in those six dreary
years of captivity calmly and coolly
formulated his plan of revenge. He
had decided to kill John Raymond, his
former friend and business associate.
just as he would kill viper that had
stung him.
How-when-where? were the words
which tangled ceaselessly through his
brain. keeping time to the Gathering Of
tho wheels over the rails.
