Tine might wore on; our fires burned

The night wore on; our fires burned
low. AS the approaching day began to
light the clearing, we heard sound
that brought US als to our feet. A
burst Of bugle notes went chasing
over the timber-lard to the tune of
Yankee Doodle" We looked at one
another in surprise. Then came a
thunder of hoofs in the distance, the
ragged outline of a troop Of cavalry.
"Soldiers!" said Arv, as he raised his
pike.
"The British?" somebody asked.
Dunno" said he. cain, no Injuns,
I don't b'lieve."
A troop Of cavalry was approaching
at a gallop. They pulled up few rods
away and jammed into q crescent of
rearing, trampling horses. We could
see they were American soldiers. We
all lowered our guns.

A body of infantry was marching
down the pike. They were the volqn-
teers of Capt. Darius Hawkins, on
their way to ogdensburg, with an es-
cort of cavalry from Sackett's Harbpr.
The scare was over. Women came out,
laughing and chattering. In few
moments they were all In the road, go
ing home-men, women, and childrsn.
I enlisted with Capt. Hawkins, and
hurried to the house and packed ny
things, and bade them all good-by.

CHAPTER Nv.

April was near its end. The hills
were turning green, albeit we could
see, here and there on the high ledge
above us, little patches Of snow-the
fading footprints of winter. Day and
night we could hear the wings Of the
wild fowl roaring in the upper air as
they flew northward. Summer was
coming-the summer OF 1S12-and the
war with the British. The president
had called for a hundred thousand vol
unteers to go into training for battle
He had also proclaimed there would be
no more whipping in the ranks. Then
my father told me that, since l could
have no peace at home, should be of
to the war and done with it.
We were working near the road
that day. Thurst Miles came gallop-
ing out of the woods, waving his
cap at us. We ran to meet him
my father and I and the children. He
pulled up a moment, his horse lathered
to the ears.
"Injuns," he shouted. "Git out o
here quick n mex fer the Corners!
Yell be all massacre4d eff ye don't"
Then he whacked the wet flank OF
his horse with sNp bssese 3 end

Then, too, the whole life Of the man had
been such an unbroken series of sue
cesses, and his character so dominant,
withal, that it was like pulling up the

humiliation. Then, too, there was
purely the physical side. For more than
40 years the mere matter of living for
himself and his family had been an in

1t had cost him in the later years figured
so trivially as matter OF percentage
of the vast sums he handled and the i'm
