up! Up, everybody! Thank God,
it's Dean and the boys!"

Long years after, in the camps and
stoctades and the growing towns of
the far west that almost marvellous
Sescue was the theme of many an
Nour's talk. The number of men who
took part in it, the number of hardy
fellows who personally guided the
troops or else stood shoulder to shoul-
der with Ned Lannion at the last tri-
umphant moment, increased so rapid
ly with the growing moons that in
time the only wonder was that any
thing was left of the Sioux. Official
records, however, limited the number
of officers and men engaged to a Sc
lcct few, consisting entirely of Lieut..
Loring, United States engineers;
Lieut.. Loomis, -th infantry; few
men from scattered troops, "pickups"
at Frayne and Emory, with Lieut..
Marshall Dean and so rank and file
of company &C."
Loring, it will be remembered, had
taken a small detachment from EN-
ory and gone into the hills in search of
Burleigh. Loomis, fretting at the fort,
was later electrified by a most grudg-
ingly given order to march to the Lar
annie and render such aid as might be
required by the engineer officer of the
department. Dean, with only Is men
all told, had dashed from Frayne
straight for the ranch, and, marching
all night, had come in sight of the
valley just as it was lighted afar to
the westward by the glare of the burn
ing buildings. "We thought it was all
over" said he, as he lay there weak
and languid, few days later, for the
wound reopened in the rush of the
fight, "but we rode on to the Laramie,
and there, God be thanked! fell in with
Loomis here and &C. troop, heading for
the fire. No words can tell you our Joy
ing and some 40 Sioux getting ready
for the final dash. That running fight,
past the old home and down the valley
where we stirred up Loring's be-
siegers and sent them whirling, too
why, I'd give fortune, if had it, to
live it over again!"
But Loring, after all, had the most
thrilling story to tell-of how he
wormed a clew to Burleigh's hiding
place out of a captured outlaw and
beat up the party in a nook of the
hills, nabbed the major asleep, but was
warned that all the Birdsall "outfit"
would rally to the rescue, and so sent
courier to Emory for &c" troop, and,
making wide detour to avoid the
gang, ran slap into the Sioux in the act
of firing Folsoms ranch. Then he had
to take to the rocks in the fight that
followed, and had a desperate siege of
a few hours, even Burleigh having to
handle gun and fight for his life. II

borne him within, but to what good?
Escape from the ranch itself was i'm
possible Such action would only in
tensify the Indian hate and make
more horrible the Indian vengeance.
For 20 minutes the clamor continued,
then seemed to die gradually away,
and, with fury in their faces, back at
full gallop came dozen of the braves.
One glance was enough. They had
penned in their foe among the rocks,
but not without the loss of several
at least of their band, for the fore
most rode with brandished war club
straight at Folsom, and despite the
leap of his two champions TO save,
felled the old trader with one stun
ming blow, then gave the savage or
der to burn the ranch.
BY this time the sun was just peer
ing into the valley. The smoke and
flame from the corral were dying
or drifting away. Eagerly half
dozen young braves rushed for fag-
OTIS and Eindling with which to do
his bidding. and a cry of despair went
up IIOll NiIlllIl Vic w dllos 1AtthlbSSlN
now Lannion and his comrade opened
fire from the loopholes and shot down
two of the dancing furies without,
sending every other Indian to the
nearest cover. But the arrows that
came whistling speedily were fire.
brands. The besiegers gained in force
with every moment. Poor old Fol
r., l.,
lay bound and helpless down by the
stream, whittier his captors had
borne him, heard the jeers and shouts
of triumph with which the Indians
within the corral were rapidly MAX
ing their fire darts, when suddenly
there rose on the morning air sound
that stilled all others, sound to
which the Indians listened in super.
stitious awe, a sound that stopped the
hands that sought to burn out the
besieged and paralyze just long
enough all inspiration of attack.
Some of the Indians, indeed, dropped
their arms, others sprang to the
ponies as though to take to flight. 1t
was the voice of Lizette, chanting
lIiC uCdbh VI VIC clouA'
An hour later, once more in force,
the band was gathered for its rush
upon the ranch. Jake, gallant fellow,
lay bleeding at his post. Hope of
every kind was well-nigh dead. The
silence without was only portent of
the storm so soon to burst. Pappeose,
grasping her brothers rifle, crouched
facing the narrow entrance to the
cellar. Jessie clung to the baby, for
Mrs. Hal, only dimly conscious, was
moaning by her husbands side, while
Lizette in silence was kneeling, watch
ing them with strange glitter in her
eyes. Suddenly she started, and with
hand to ear listened intently. Then
she sprang to an air port and
crouched there, quivering. Then again
the ground began to tremble under
the distant thunder of pony feet,
louder and louder every second. Again
came the rush of the Indian braves,
but with it no exultant yell, only cries
of warning, and as this sound swept
over and beyond their walls, there fol-
lowed another. the distant, deep
throated trooper cheer, the crack of
carbine, the rising thunder of the cav
airy gallop, and then the voice of Ned
Lannion rang jubilantly over the dull
clamor.
