"If you do I'll blow hole through
you," said Hamilton in voice fairly
shaken to husky quaver with rage.
"You may do great many insulting
things, but not that"
Helm was in a half STOPPING atti-
tude with a ladle in one hand, cup
in the other He had met Hamilton's
glowering look with a peculiarly inno-
cent smile, as if to say: "What in the
world is the matter now? I never felt
in better humor in all my life. Can't
you take a joke, wonder?" He did
not speak, however, for rafting vol
ley of musket and rife shots hit the
top of the clay daubed chimney, send
down into the toddy shower Of SCOT
and dirt.
In wink every man was on his feet
and staring.
Gentlemen" said Helm, with an I'M
pressive oath, that is Clark's soldiers,
and they will take your fort, but they
ought not to have spoiled this apple
toddy."
"Oh, the devilv' said Hamilton, forci-

heard one occasionally in my life. Be-

Captain Helm is right" observed
Farnsworth. THAT is an attack"
Another volley, this time nearer and
more concentrated, convinced Hamil-
ton that he was indeed at the opening
Of fight. Even while he was giving
some hurried orders to his officers a
man was wounded at one of the port
holes. Then came series of yells, an
swered by a ripple Of sympathetic
French shouting that ran throughout
the town. The patrol guards came
struggling IN, GREATNESS with excite
ment. They swore to having seen a
thousand men marching across the
water covered meadows.
Hamilton was brave. The approach
Of danger stirred him like trumpet
strain. His fighting blood rose to full
tide, and he gave his orders with the
steadiness and commanding force of a
born soldier. The officers fastened to
their respective positions. On all sides
sounds indicative Of rapid preparations
for the fight mingled into confused
strain Of military energy. Men march
ed to their places, cannon were wheeled
into position, and soon enough the fir
ing began in good earnest.
Late in the afternoon q rumor of
Clark's approach had gone abroad
through the village, but not French
lip breathed it to friend of the Brit
ish. The creoles were loyal to the

beat high at the prospect Of a change
in masters at the fort. Every cabin
had its hidden gun and supply Of am

hustling to bring these forth, which
was accompanied with a guarded vet
irrepressible chattering, Delightfully."-

There was a current belief in the
town that Gaspard Roussillon never
missed a good thing and always some
how got the lions share. He went out
with the ebb to return OH the flood.
Nobody was surprised, therefore, when
he suddenly appeared in the midst Of
his friends, armed to the teeth and
emotionally warlike to suit the oeca'

THE ATTACK.
T has already been mentioned that
Indians arriving singly or in
squads to report at Hamilton's
headquarters were in the habit
Of firing their guns before entering
the town or the fort, not only as sig
nal of their approach, but in order to
rid their weapons of their charges pre-
liminary to cleaning them before set
ting out upon another scalp hunting
expedition. A shot, therefore, or even
volley, heard on the outskirts of the
village was not Il noticeable incident
In the daily and nightly experience of
the garrison. Still, for some reason.
Governor Hamilton started violently
when just after nightfall five or six
rifles cracked sharply short distance
from the stockade.

your times short. He'll have this fort

As he spoke he arose from his seat
at the card table and went to look after
the toddy which, as an expert. he had
under supervision.
Hamilton frowned. The mention of
Clark was disturbing. Ever since the
strange disappearance of Lieutenant
Barlow he had nursed the fear that
possibly Clark's scouts had captured
him and that the American forces
might be much nearer than Kaskaskia.
Besides, his nerves were unruly, as
they had been ever since the encounter
with Father Beret, and his vision per-
sisted in turning back upon the ac-
cusing cold face Of Alice, lying in the
moonlight. One little detail of that
scene almost maddened him at times.
It was a sheeny, crinkled wisp Of
warm looking hair looped across the
cheek in which he had often seen q
saucy dimple dance when Alice spoke
or smiled. He was bad enough, but
not wholly bad, and the thought Of
having darkened those merry eyes and
stilled those sweet dimples tore
