CHAPTER XIX.

lrArlITII Thorpe there could be no
M halfway measure. He saw that
V the rupture with his sister was
fnal and the thrust attacked
him in one of his few unprotected
points. At first the spring of his life
seemed broken. He did not care for
money, and at present dis:,npoint:nent
had numbed his interest in the game
1t seemed hardly worth the candle
Then in Il few days he began to look
about him mentally. Unconsciously the
combative instinct WAS aroused. In
lack of other object OH which TO expentl
itself Thorpe's fighting spirit turned
with energy to the subject of the law
suit.
After his sister left the I,enwicks
Thorpe himself went TO Detroit, where
he interviewed at once Nortllrop, the
brilliant young lawyer whom the firm,
had engaged to defend it's case.
'I'm afraid we have no show" he re-
piled to Thorpe's question. You see.
you fellows were on the wrong side of
the fence in trying to enforce the law
yourselves. OF course you may we'll
say that justice was all on your side.
That does not count. The only recourse
recognized for injustice lies in the law
courts. I'm afraid you are due to lose
your case.''
"Well," said Thorpe, "they can't
prove much damage
II don't expect that they will be able
to procure very heavy Judgment" re-
piled Northrop. '"The facts 1 shall be
able to adduce will cut down damages.
But the costs will be very heavy"
"Yes,' agreed Thorpe
"And," then pursued Northrop, with
dry smile, "they practically own
Sherman. You may he in for contempt
of court-at their instigation. AS un-
derstand it, they are trying rather to
injure you than to get anything out of
it themselves
"Ihat's it, nodded Thorpe.
I'm other words, it's a case for COM
promise"
"Just what I wanted to get at" s;,id
Thorpe, with satisfaction "Now an.

claim for damage against the trespass.

ted ..sys.
| ""Certainly." answered Northrop with
out hesitation. provided suit is brought
within six years of the time the tres.
pass was committed" ~ = : %Gi@'>
"Good! Now, see here. These M. &
D. people stole bout a section of GOV:
| ernment pine up on that river, and ]
don't believe they've ever bought, in
the land it stood on. In fact don't
believe they suspect that any one
knows they've been stealing How
would it do if were to buy that sec.
ton at the land office and threaten to
sue them for the value Of the pine that
originally stood on it?'' %@s.a
! The lawyers eyes glimmered behind
the lenses of his. .pince-nez. II.
'.It would do very well indeed" he
replied. 'but you'd have. to prove they
did the cutting, and you'll have to paw

stant's silence, worth in the stump

eight hundred to buy It. ~, ~ - x ':.. r.
:: DO so by all means. Get your doc
uments and evidence all in shape and
let me have them. I'll see that the suit

The next day Thorpe took the train
north. BY the time he had bought the
sixteen forties constituting: the section,
searched out a dozen witnesses to- the
theft and spent a week with the Mar
quette expert in. looking over the
ground he had fallen into the swing of
work again. His experience still ached,
but duly: ~..
Only now he possessed no interests
outside Of those in the new country,
no affections save, the half protecting,
good: natured comradeship with Wal
lace the mutual self restraint respect
that subs1sted between Tim Shearer
and himself and the dumb, unreason-
ing dog liking he shared with Injun
Charley. His eye became clearer and
steadier, his methods more simple and
direct. The taciturnity of his mood re-
doubled in thickness. He was less
charitable to failure on the part of sub
ordinates. And the new firm on the
Ossawinamakee prospered.
To be Continued.

"Scotty Parsons"
ASK him to step here"
In a moment the man entered the Of
1ce.
"Scotty," said Thorpe, II want you te
understand thar stand responsible for
whatever order you to do"
"All right sir" reDlied the man..
''In the morning." said Thorpe, you
take two men and build some sort of a
shack right over the sluice gate of that
second dam. want you to live there
day and night. Never leave it, not
even for minute. The cookee will
bring you grub. Take this Winchester.
If any Of the men from up river try to
60 out on the dam, you warn them off.
If they persist you shoot near them. If
they keep coming, you shoot at them.
Understand"
You bet!' answered scotty, with
enthusiasm.
"All right concluded Thorpe.
Next day Scotty established himself,
as had been agreed. He did not need
to shoot anybody. DAILY himself came
down to investigate the state of af-
fairs. He attempted to parley, but
Scotty would have none of it.
"Get outv' was his first and last
word.
At the mouth of the river booms Of
logs chained together at the ends had
been prepared. Into the inclosure the
drive was fioated and stopped. Then Il
raft was formed by passing new ma
Mia ropes over the logs, to each one
of which the line was fastened by /,
hardwood forked pin driven astride of
1t. A tug dragged the raft to Mar
quette.
Now Thorpe was summoned legally
on two counts. First, Judge Sherman
cited him for contempt of court; sec
ond, Morrison & DAILY sued him for al
legged damages in obstructing their
drive for holding open the dam sluce
beyond the legal head of water.

'You may take your choice, Helen"
he said formally. ''If you go into the

They faced each other with the cool,

appearance, but so unlike in nature.

visit his sister, Time, filled
~ with excitement and RESPONSE
bility, had erased from his mind the
bitterness of their parting. Now he
found himself so impatient that he
could hardly wait to get there.
He learned on his arrival that She
was not a home. Mrs. Renwick proved
not nearly so cordial as the year be-
fore, but Thorpe, absorbed in his ca
gerness, did not notice it. Mrs. Rem
wick thought Helen had gone over to
the Hugheses.
Thorpe found the Hughes residence
without difficulty and turned up the
straight walk to the vcranda. On the
steps of the latter Il rug had been
spread. \ dozen youths and maidens
lounged OH it's soft surface. Thorpe,
as he approached the light from a tall
lamp just inside the hall, heSitated,
vainly trying to make out the figures
before him.
So it was that Helen Thorpe saw
him first and came futtering to meet
him.
"Oh, Harry! What a surprise". she
cried, and flung her arms about his
neck to kiss him.
''IIow do you do, Helcn?' he replied
sedately.
This was the meeting he had an
t1cipated so long The presence of
others brought out in him irresistibly
the repression Of public display which
was 50 strong an element of his ca
reer.
A little chilled, Helen turned to in
troduce him to her friends. He took
q place OH the steps and sat without
saying a word all the evening. There
was nothing for him to say. These
young people talked thoughtlessly, as
young people do, of the affairs belong
ing to their own little circle. He had
thought pine and forest and the trail
SO long that he found these square ell
bowed subjects refusing to be jostled
aside by any trivialities.
He took Helen back to Mrs. Rem
wick's about 10 o'clock They walked
slowly beneath the broad leaved ma
tall electric lights, and talked.
How have you done, Harry?' she
inquired anxiously. "Your letters have
been SO vague"
"Pretty WE'LL" he replied. eff things
go right l hope some day to have a
better place for you than this''
Her heart contracted suddenly. II
was all she could do to keep from
bursting into tears. The indetiniteness
of his answer cXaspcrated her and fill
ed her with sullen despair. She s;r
nothing for twenty steps. Then:
Harry" she said quietly, "can you
take me away from Mrs. Renwick's?"
II don't know, Helen. 1 can't tel
