Mr., Bobs was put in possession of such
facts as his sister had learned, and the
fifty odd queer conclusions her quick
imagination had conjured into being.
1t was quite light now, and Mr.. Bobs,
selecting a stout hickory cane from his
collection, sailed out, remarking, Hes

But as Mr.. Bobs went out. the White
haired Master drove into the lane, and
he and Aaron came forward as rapidly
as they could. Mr.. Bobs went to the
wagon. turned the heads of the mules
away from the fodder stack. and then
looked into the wagon. Drusilla and
Little Biscuit We're soundly sleeping,
but nothing was to be seen of the
driver. Searching around the premises
carefully and continuously, Mr.. Bobs
presently heard voices in a pine thicket
not far away. and there was Mr.. Roby
Ransom preaching a. sermon to the
birds and bushes. He was not preach
hausted, and occasionally he leaned
against sapling for support
Mr.. Bobs knew him at once as a
crazy man who had lived in the neigh
borhood some years before. and who
had been sent to the asylum from an
adjoining county.
Meanwhile the White-haired Master
and the son of Ben Ali came up, and
great was their CONSERVATION for mo-
ment when they discovered neither
Sweetest Susan nor the wagner were
to be seen. Fortunately, the suspense
of the grandfather was of short dura-
ton. He heard Sweetest Susan call his
name, and in a moment she was in his
arms, and Miss Elviry found it neces-
sary to wipe her specs.
Then came Mr.. Bobs with an expla-
nation of the whole matter, and he and
the Whitehaired Master and Aaron
went to secure the unfortunate Mr..
Ransom.

his hands on Ransom's shoulder; come

self into a state of frenzy. He glared
at the three with CLASSY eyes and then,
shrieking out something about the fiend
Apollyon, ran through the bushes and
brambles in to the woods. Not even
Aaron could overtake him. He disaD-
peared, and although searching parties
secured the woods for miles around, the
unfortunate was never seen again. His
fate became a legend, and the legend
developed into the collection of myths
which in that neighborhood are passed
about from mouth to mouth to this day
Those most affected by the whites. tell
of Robber Ransom, while those of he
negroes give blood-curdling tales about
Robityransom. Some of these tales are
curious, while all are marvellous, and
parts of other myths or legends have
been injected into them.
1t is hardly necessary to say that
neither the White-haired Master nor
Aaron made any serious effort to find
the lunatic after he had once disap-
peared. They had other things to think
about. There was Sweetest Susan, s
mother; they knew that every hour
, that passed without their eeturn was
to her a long esason of agony The
son of Ben Ali indeed, made no DELAY
about going. There would not be room

minutes, the rattle of buggy wheels was
heard on the gravel. BY the time the
White-haired Master could get his coat
on and fix himself for facing the cold,
crisp air, the buggy was at the back
gate with Aaron calling, "All ready,
MASTER"
He had no need to repeat the call.
The children's grandfather came run

one of his years and. in moment, he
was in the buggy, with Aaron beside
him.

White-haired Master. Where are the
reins?"
In the saddle ring: 1 forgot TO take
'em out" He spoke to the horse, and
the animal broke from a walk into a
canter, shaking its head playfully. By
this time, Johnny Bapter, armed with
a flaming torch, was more than half
way to the-side gate, where the wagon
had come in and gone out. He reached
the gate as the buggy drove up, and
Aaron seized the torch and examined
the ground. He saw the wagon tracks
coming in, and saw where it turned as
if it went out. He spoke to the horse
as he flung the torch away. and climbed
into the buggy as it moved off. He
spoke once more, and the animal broke
into what seemed to be a Wild gallon,
going so rapidly that the buggy seemed

Mr.. Bobs was very much surprised to

White-haired Master was thanking
Miss Elviry for her proffered break

thumped on the wagon gate and cried:

Little Billy Biscuit laughed back at
her. When she took him in her arms
he put his small arms around her neck
and Rugged her so hard that he grunt-
ed. 1t was evidently a trick that his
mother had taught him, and very cute
one. This time when Miss Elviry laugh

Miss Elviry's only reply to this was
to kiss the baby and squeeze him the
more closely to her breast. Now, when
Sweetest Susan saw Little Billy Bis
cult, it caused her a sharp pang of re-
morse to feel that she had almost for
gotten the poor little thing. She ran
to him now, and would have taken him
in her arms, but he, thinking she was
up for a frolic, kicked his feet, laugh
ing and screaming in glee, and chung to
Miss Elviry.
Nevertheless, the child was a prob
lem. What was to be done with him?
1t was plain that Ransom, the lunatic,
perhaps feeling the need of company,
had taken the child on the road. To eX-
plain the child's presence, however,
didn't settle the matter. He was there,
and what was to be done with him?
Miss Elviry settled the matter.
"May'nt | keep him till his kinnery
Gomez" she insisted.
"Less'n he gegins for to blate an
squall at night" remarked Mr.. Bobs,
laughing.
But Miss Elviry was very earnest
about it, and so it was settled.
And we can come and see him some
times, said Sweetest Susan, with an
eye to the future.
Yes, and when YOU come, fetch lot
of old clothes that used to belong to
you an your brother, eff your mas got
any to spare" replied Miss Elviry, with
an eye to the practical.
There was another problem, the
wagon and mules. EFF them mules has
swallowed one bundle of fodder they
walloped a hundredweight," remarked
Mr.. Bobs, when the subject of the
wagon was mentioned. 1t was finally
decided that he was to take charge of
the wagon and team, and if no one
called for them, they were to be his.

When they had gone on for an hour,
