CHAPTER XI.-CoSr1SUED.

"Parmelee! Parmelee!" he shout
ed.
There was a faint cry in answer.
"Whiskers" renewed his attack upon
Mr.. Merton, but Simpson stopped
short, and the man who was gripping
the horses head glanced about in ap-
prehension.
''The games up, 'Whislers,'" said
Simpson, ''we'd better make tracks,"
'Not if hell splits!" cried the furi-
Gus tramp, and he caught from the
roadside a bludgeon which he had
evidently dropped in order the better
to use his hands, and menaced the
now defenceless Mr.. Merton.
'That bag o money, or I'll brain
vel" he shouted.
Rossiter made a rush at Simpson.
The man was powerful but awkward,
while Rossiter had never lost the
agility of his college days. There was
no graphing, though the farmland
made clutch at his antagonist, a Sec
ond afterwards to reel blindly back
ward under n fierce blow that landed
upon his jaw. Then Rossiter was
past him. The bludgeon was poised
in ''Whiskers' hand, and Mr.. Merton
was fumbling in his pocket, when
Parmelee's shout from the crest of
the dip caused the tramp to turn. He
knew that their dastardly attempt
had failed. Even at that instant his
confederate released the struggling
horse, and the frightened animal
plunged forward. 'Whiskers' eyes
were murderous. The young mans
impetuous leap past Simpson to Mr..
Merton's assistance had brought him
and the enraged vagabond face to
face. The long run and the violent
efforts he had since made seemed sud-
denly to tell upon his strength. He
felt his breath weaken. He was
aware of the swinging bludgeon and
of trying to dodge the blow, and then
1t was as though the earth had gaped
and swallowed him.
He returned to a consciousness of
existence through a variety of painful
sensations, most of them in his head.
He opened his eyes.
"Are they gomez" he asked weakly.
EYES," someone said.
He knew the voice, and gained sud
denly a clearer realization of his sur
roundings. Parmelee, Mr.. Merton and
Dick WhittleSey were standing about
him, while over him Miss Densmore
was bending with look which he
many, many times afterward ques-
toned himself, wondering if he had
seen it in a dream.

back of it, but she did not think it
wise to question her. There was Mr..
Wolffe's sudden departure too
tween the abrupt leave-taking of the
two men? The enigma was quite
beyond her solving, and there ap-
peared to be no inclination on Miss
Densmore's part to solve it for her.
The latter. fingered for n moment,
and then passed leisurely from the
room. She assembled the stairs, eli
tered her chamber, and closed the
door. She did not strike a light at
once, but sat down upon the edge
of the bed and gazed wide-eyed at the
wall.
She recalled what she had said on
the night of the hop-dance, and also
her talk with Rossiter on the pre-
ceding evening. "Her promise to
herself" he had called it, her asser-
ton in regard to her after-thought
of her hop-picking life. Tears start
ed into her eyes. Had he come to
say good-by to her, as she surely eN-
pected that he would, she had meant
to extend to him cordial invitation
to call upon her in Illica, and some,
thing in her heart told her he would
have come. Now she felt that in
all likelihood she should never see
him again. He had not revealed to
her his home-or the place that he
had once called home; she had gath
cred that it was one of the large
eastern cities, and that he was re-
turning thither to begin life anew,
that was all. The chapter seemed to
her irrevocably closed.
At length she rose. lighted a can
die and unfolded the crumpled scrap
of paper. ''Good-by. God bless
you," she read, and then his sigma
ture-''Philip Rossiter.' She extin-
guished the candle, and going to the
window looked long at the sky and
the fast-thickening stars. Then she
walked to the bureau. opened one
of the drawers and taking therefronl
a little box of Venetian glass which
held some treasured = trinkets
snapped back the lid and laid the pa
per caressingly among them.
