directly from our camp and that the
greater chance for safety both imme-

rillas to pass us, thus affording an OPP
portunity to return and join forces

of wood skirted by open ground, plan
flashed through my brain to utilize both

and a tritle farther on my hat Helen
entered the wood, and l, wheeling,
dashed in on the farther side and re-
joined her. Jerking off my coat, l
wrapped it about my horses ears and
eyes to prevent his neighing to those
approaching, and Helen, divining my
intention, did the same to her own
mount with her jacket. Then we stood
