maddened by the woman's words and
her continued presence and rendered
desperate by the danger Of the general
situation, il was no wonder the old man
suddenly turned at bay with the glare
of hunted wolf in his eyes. She was
too close to him to escape. Spripging
forward, he seized her by the shoulders,
lifted her from the ground, and with
mighty effort he flung her clear OF the
road. At that point the ground sloped
sharply away toward ravine, and as
the woman struck the earth with stun
ming force she rolled over and over un-
til she finally brought up against bush
90 feet away.
"De Lawd furgive me, but couldn't
dun help it!'' groaned Uncle Ben as he
continued his way. "Dey's arter Miss
Sunshine, an dey's arter me, an dey's
arter Mars Kenton, an de good ole mis-
sus am lyin dead in de house, an what's
gwine to becum of us all dunno!"
With eyes fastened on the pathway,
with teeth hard shut, with words OF
prayer rising to his lips and constant
struggle against the feeling Of despair
seeking a lodgment in his heart, the
faithful old slave pressed on, mile
after mile, and suddenly found himself
confronted by q party of horsemen in
blue uniforms. The goal had been won,
and as he realized IL up went went his
arms. and he sank down on the icy road.
Runaway darky, but he isn't pur-
sued that can see, )" observed the cap
tain of the troop as he ordered halt.
"Some of you men liven him up with
sip of whisky"
A sergeant dismounted and put a
flask to Uncle Ben's lips and forced
some of the contents down his throat.
In couple of minutes the old man sat
up anu looked around.
Were you running awayf" asked
the captain as he rode closer.
"whar- whar's Mars Custerf" gasp
ed Uncle Ben in reply.
General Custer2 Oh, he's some
miles away. Did you want to see hima"
miss Sunshine dun wants him, sab
wants him to eum quiokl De gorril-
las an de sojers am up dsr tFyin to burn

Uncle Ben was 90 overcome that 1t
took 10 minutes to get his story straight.
The troopers mum bered only about half
q company and had bsen sent out to in
tercept Confederate mail courier who
was expected to enter that valley
through Hempstsad's gap, three miles
away. The captain wrote a note and
sent il off to the Federal lines by cou-
rier, but could do no more in the matter.
Uncle Ben was given some ratiors to
make. q breakfast Of, provided with a
blanket by kind hearted trooper and
instructed to wait for the force which
would be sure to corao up within two
OF three hours.

CHAPTER XVII.

Uncle Ben had started out bravely
enough, but after he had Travelled mile
or so he found himself growing faint
and weak. He was not only an old man,
but the exciting scenes through which
be had passed in the last few hours, to-
gether with the physical pain he had
endured, were quite sufficient to tax his
strength TO the utmost. He fought
against tho feeling until at length tho
rocks and trees seemed to be whirling
round and round and the frozen high
way TO be sliding from under his feet,
and then he dropped TO the earth and
gasped:
20 Lawd, doan' let IL cum Jest yitl

awsyI / dun can't stop yere, o Lawdl

After "a rest OF three or four minutes
no rose mp and moved on. Ne slipped
and staggered a. he advanced, bat he

men moving toward the camp through
the scrub.
II won Z shoot to kill-not this time"
he whispered as he thrust the barrel of
ihe carbine through the opening. IN
fest fling "a bullet down thar to let 'em
know that the Confederate Yankee army
has had breakfast, pulled its boots on
and is ready fur biznessI'
His shot was followed by yell which
announced to the other party that the
fugitives had been discovered. and 10
minutes later the camp was surrounded.
Among the enemy was man who had
seen Royal Kenton fall when fired upon,
and it was therefore known tIat t1g WIS
wounded. How far he was disabled,
however, could only be guessed at.
Steve Brayton was known to be with
him, and steve was also known to bo a
fighter. lt was therefore decided not to
open fire until other means had been re-
sorted 10 and failed. Thirty minutes
after the hrst appearance of the enemy
flag Of truce was shown among the
scrub, and the bearer cautiously ad-
vanoed until within bailing distance.
His advance was from the south side,
and both men had him under their eyes.
1t was Ike Baxter, and he halted absut
pistol shot away and called ont:
Hello. mp thar! l want tospeak TO
yo' uns bout a minit!'
"Waal, fire off yo'r breathl" replied
Steve.
1--WE urs has dun clean surrounded
yo' uns, and yo'd better give int
"Yes?"
eff yo' uns uA1 give in, nobody will
be hurt. If yo' uns don't give in, we
uns ar bound 10 wipe yo' out! We uns
is hundred strong, with two cannonsw
"That yo'. Ike Baxterf" called Steve,
as il doubhng the others identity.
Yes
"Waal. I've got my gun pinted fur a
shot right betwixt yo'r doggone eyes,
and If yo' hain't back thar among yo'r
gang befo' count 10 I'll pull trigger!
If yo' want us, cum and git us!"
Five minutes later fire was opened on
the fort from all around the circle, aud
the enemy were shouting and cheering
as il a victory had already been nearly
won. While most Of their bullets flew
clear over the piled up rocks, those
which were better aimed did no damage
whatever. Not a shot was fired in re-
ply. Kcntons position caused MIN con-
siderable pain, end steve removed the
prop from his back and laid him down
with the remark:

to the weakness seeking to pull him
down. Two events happened to brace
him up and restore a portion Of his
strength. He had gone a dissance of
about two miles and was just passing
the cabin of poor white" which had
been deserted for the last month when
Mrs. Baxter suddenly appeared. She
had travelled two miles toward the Yam
kee lines after leaving Rest Haven in
stead of going the other way, but it was
to strike pass leading over the range
into the Shenandoah. She had been
waiting there in hopes to hear from Ike,
who had told her that he would return
Tor his revenge. Uncle Ben was no
doubt possessed of the information she
longed for, and though realizing his
feelings toward her she made bold TO
step out and accost him.
What, yo' yere!" shouted the old
man at the top of his voice as soon as he
set eyes on her. "Fo' de Lawd, wom-
an, but if l eber git hands on yo' I'll
kill yo' fur shorev'
Had Ike cum when yo' left the
placer" she asked, pretending not to no.
tice his ortburst of anger, but at the
same time preserving respectful dis
tance between them.
"Yo' ole catl Yo' ole she debbil!"
be exclaimed as he rushed at her. "Yo'
am de one who brung all dis trubble
to Miss Sunshine, an IN broke ebery
bone in yo'r bodyp'
She retreated before him and held up
her hand as a caution to him to listen.
The soldiers and guerrillas had begun
firing on the camp. The distance was
two miles or more, but the morning
wind was blowing from the south, and
the reports of the muskets came plainly
TO their ears. Both realized at once
what was going on. The woman
laughed as she observed:
'Ike's goin to git 'em fur shore! Ike
will be an ossifer now and ride the best
critter in the company. Reckon yo'
must "a bin hidin out when Ike got
thar. or yo' wouldn't be yere now. lie
was eoin to burn yo' nm alive"
The reports of the guns told Uncle
Ben that the two men in camp had been
attacked, and that he had not mo-
ment TO waste with the woman. All his
strength and resolution had returned,
and without hoeding her words he start
ed off at n stout pace. She felt certain
of his mission. and she was determined
to detain him il possible. Mrs. Baxter
was not only fearless woman under
all circumstances, but in such crisis
as this she was desperate. 1t Uncle Ben
brought help, all that had been gained
would be lost, and Ike might be killed
OF captured with the rest of the gang.
She stepped aside 20 let tho old slave
pass and then followed at his heels,
threatening taunGng and commanding
by turns and almost daring 10 Lag hands
on him. IT she had been .armld with
knife or pistol, she would have attacked
him al once. As she was not she CON
tinued to follow him in hopes OF en-.
couurring some one on the highway.
IL white man, and she cried cut 10
him that the black had dared to raise
his hand against her, Uncle Ben would
be seized. n not shot down in his tracks.

half an hour yit, and we uns kin take
things easy. reckon the firin will
make the gal bit Uneasy, but it'll also
hurry mp the Yankees in case they ar
on the way"
That's what we must hope for, p" an
swered Kenton, 'but watch out that we
are not taken by surprise"
The firing attracted the attention of a
party of seven or eight guerrillas who
were hunting for the fguitives on their
own account, and they came up and
joined forces with the larger body.
The entire force then numbered, as near
as could be estimated by the firing,
about % men. All they could hope 10
gain by their blazing away as they did
was that stray bullet might find tar
