each with its silent direction-the
crossed twigs To me there was some
thing almost weird and creepy in TINS
curious hunt for the invisible and in
comprehensible, guided faithfully and
persitently at every turn by this now
unmistakable signal. After the second
turning we broke into trot along
long. winding lane, but presently
Hewitt's hand fell on my shoulder and
we stopped. He pointed ahead. where
some large object, round bend OF the
hedge, was illuminated as though by
Hight from below.
1--WE will walk now" Hewitt said.
Remember that we are on walking
tour, and have come along here entire
ly by accident"
We proceeded at swinging walk,
Hewitt whistling gayly. Soon we
turned the bend and l saw that the
large object was a travelling van,
drawn UP with two others on space of
grass by the side of the lane. 1t was a
gypsy encampment, the caravan nav
ing apparently only lately stopped, for
a man was still engaged In tugging at
the rope of q tent that stood near the
vans. Two or three sullen-looking
ruffians lay about fire which burned
in the space left in the middle of the
encampment. A woman stood at the
door of one van with large kettle In
her hand, and at the foot of the steps
below her q more pleasant-looking old
man sat on an inverted pail. Hewitt

soon as the police arrive / shall have
that trail followed and the Fosters ap-
pretended. / should be q fool If l
didn't"
VERY we'll, Mr.. Hardwick," Hewitt
replied, you'll do what you consider
your duty of course, and quite properly.
Though I would recommend you to take
another look at those three trails in the
path / shall take a look in this direc-
ton" And he turned up by the side of
the streamlet. keeping on the gravel at
its side.
/ followed. We climbed the rising
ground and presently among the trees
came to the place where the little rill
emerged from the broken ground in the
highest part of the wood. Here the
clean gravel ceased and there was
large patch OF wet. clayey ground. Sew
eral marks left by the feet of cattle
were there, and one or two human foot
marks. Two ofthese Ga pair, the new
est and the most distinct, Hewitt
studied carefully, and measured in each
direction.
'Notice these marks" he said. "They
may be Of Importance or they may not
that we shall see. Fortunately they
are very distinctive--the right foot IS q
badly worn one. and a small tag of
leather, where the sole Is damaged Is
doubled over and trodden into the soft
earth. Nothing could be >luckier. Clear
ly they are the most recent footsteps in
this direction-from the main road,
which lies right ahead, through the rest
Of the wood"
"Then you think somebody else has
been on the scene of the tragedy, be-
The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1895-04-09

be little surprised before very long.
But come, we must move" And We
wended our pace along the lane.
The lane, by the bye, was hard and
firm. with scarcely a spot where track
might be left except in places at the
sides, and at these places Hewitt never
gave a glance. At the end the lane
turned ,into II ,by-road, and at the
turning Hewitt stopped and scrutinized
the ground closely. There was nothing
like recognizable footmark to be seen
but almost Immediately Hewitt turned
off to the right, and we continued our
brisk march without glance at the
road.
How did you Judge which way to
turn then?' | asked.
Didn't you see?1 replied Hewitt
"1'll show you at the next turning"
Half mile further on the road
forked, and here Hewitt stopped and
pointed silently to couple of small
twigs, placed crosswise, with the longer
twig of the two pointing down the
branch of the road to the left. We took
the branch to the left and went on.
"Our mans making mistake"
Hewitt observed. He leaves his friends
message lying about for his enemies to
read"
We hurried forward with scarcely
word. / was almost too bewildered by
what Hewitt had said and done to
formulate anything like a reasonable
guess as to what our expedition tended,
or even to make an effective inquiry
though after what Hewitt had said
knew that would be useless. Who was
this mysterious man with the broken
shoe, what had he to do with the muir
der of Sneathy. what did the mutila-
ton mean and who were his friends
who left him signs and messages by
means of crossed twigs?
We met man, by whom sent short
note to my uncle, and soon after we
turned into main road. Here, again.
at the corner, was the curious message
of twigs. A cart wheel had passed over
and crushed them. but It had not so far
displaced them as to cause any doubt
| that the direction to take was to the
right. At an inn little further along
we entered and Hewitt bought pint
of Irish whisky and n fiat bottle to hold
| 1t In, as well as loaf of bread and some
cheese, which we carried away wrapped
| In paper.
"This will have to do for our dinner"
| Hewitt said las we emerged.
But we'er not going to drink a pint
of common whisky between us?' I
asked, In some astonishment
"Never mind" Hewitt answered. with
smile. perhaps ven find somebody
to help us-somebody not 30 fastidious
| as yourself as to quality"
Now we hurried-hurried more than
ever, for 1t was beginning to get dusk
and Hewitt feared a difficulty in find
ing and reading the twig signs In the
dusk. Two more turnings we made

boring soft ground. There were none.
however, for the gravel margin of the
stream made sort of footpath of
itself. and the trees and underground
were close and thick on each side. AT
the bottom we emerged from the wood
on a small piece of oren ground skirt
Ing q lane where the stream fell into
a trench, Hewitt suddenly pounced on
another footmark. He was unusually
excited.
See he said, here II is-the right
foot with its broken leather and the
corresponding left foot ON the damp
edge of the lane Itself. He-the man
with the broken shoe--has walked on
the hard gravel all the way down from
the source of the stream. and his Is the
only trail unaccounted for near the
body. Come, Brett. we've an adven-
ture on foot. Do you care to let your
uncle's dinner go by the board, and
follow?" s- N a
Cant we go back and tell him?"
"No-theres no time to lose, we must
follow up this man--or at least l must.
You go or stay, of course, as you think
best" t- -
I hesitated a moment, picturing to
myself the excellent colonel as he
would appear after waiting dinner an
hour or two for us, and decided to 60
Eat any rate" l said, "lf the way lies

everything Hardwick said seemed to
me to be beyond question. There were
the tracks to prove that the three had
walked together to the spot and that
