the still was. Then he brought the
Dosse. and in the fight he killed Dave!
She was face to face with the man she
accused, painting, shaking her chnched
hands at him. DO you think Id mis-
take him." she cried. I'D know him
if we was both gray and wrinkled and
You would know Jim Bassett again.
Parker interrupted hoarsely- He was on
his feet now, grave and white. You
would know him sure enough to hang
him presently outside your door theret-

not meaning it, III swear
The short utterances rang sharply as he

he said. Now tell them-thcy Will
hang me or let me go free, as you say
tell them whether l am Jim Bassett!'
A moment the two stood, hands and
gaze locked, while the ring of spectators
stared at them as mutely-
Speak, Eml" her husband growled
at last. "Or, by holy, III shoot him!
She put her hands over her eyes He

gasped; flung her arms about Frost's
neck and tainted away.
That ended it. The would-be avengers

That was a daring risk to take

coat She was half mad with excitement
Suppose she had stuck to her mistake:
Il knew she wouldn't hang me when
it came to her say-poor soul! Parker
muttered with a break in the voice,
which had been steady when he scotted
at his prospective eXecut1Oners-
In the kitchen below there was no sign
of En-; but Frost offered them coffee
and corn-bread, of which they ate with
out much appetite.
When they had mounted their horses,
Frost put a hand on Parker's saddle-bow-
Don't think hard of my girl he
said. She was powerful fond OF her
brother Dave, and she is the kind that
don't forget"
''She saved my life" Parker answered
shortly. Tell her don't forget either"
During the long ride that followed,
Mather found his guide gloomier and
more taciturn than in the two previous
days of their acquaintance; but with
his own sight and hearing strained to
avoid further encounters by the way,
he bestowed little conjecture on Parker's
change of mood.
1t was not until late that afternoon,
when they were parting at the railway
station of a Kentucky border town, that
at last he understood.
His train was due, and Parker had
declared an intention of giving up the
ride back to Wide Mouth Gap and OF
going at once to neighboring city,
where there must be a recruiting office
We have had right close squeeze.

easy made enough for four.
With which he led the way to shed
where the horses were stabbed, and re-
turning to the bench before the CABIN, he
and Parker grew so interested in details
concerning his recent migrat1ons to
that side of the mountains that only
Mather turned at the rustic OF a cotton
skirt behind them.
A girl stood on the threshold, dark as
a gypsy and in the twilight seeming to
have more beauty than he had heard
ascribed to the Woodworking early-aglng
women of these mountains But she
slipped back into the cabin so swiftly
when she met his glance that his one dis
tinct impression was of strangely brilliant
black eyes.
Her husbands talk with Parker ram
bled on apparently unconscious OF sup
pers delay, though Mather was rabidly
hungry before she called shrilly that 1t
was ready.
She had vanished when they entered,
and Frost, as their host named himself,
following her with obvious surprise to an
inner room, returned without her.

"She makes you welcome; but she is
some shy of strangers.
Supper over, Mather smoked drowsily
beside the chimney; but his attention
reused keen1y when Frost broke off in
story of hunting adventure with genial
slap on Parker's knee.
Its Jim Bassett you are hke!'
he cried. Il knowed you featured

"Of course a good citizen like you, Mr..
Frost, would stand by him in case
Jim Bassett wouldn't need nobody
to stand by him, so long as he could keep
his gun goin'," Frost interrupted grimly;
then he added hospitality, as Parker rose
with huge yawn: Not bedtime yet
surely? There is good whisky here
waitin' your drinkin', gentlemen"
The sleeping quarters to which he led
them up a ladder presently proved to be
an attic decorated with every variety of
household property, from t1itches of
| bacon to many-colored feminine gar
ments But a big bed filled the center of

had startled him to wakeful toreDod1ngS-
If was consistent with the almost
callous courage which seemed to be char-
acteristic of Parker that, again having
ESCAPED the threatened dangers OF that
resemblance, he should trouble even less
about it than yesterday. But Mather'
rejecting on the distance that yet inter
vened to the Kentucky border and on the
possible encounters of tomorrow, vowed
that in similar expeditions of the future
he would make sure that his guide pos
sessed no unpopular double.
He was drifting at last into dreams,
when he was reused by the CHATTER OF
horses hoofs under the CLASHES window
and creeping from the bed, he saw FROST
in the moonlight dashing down the trail:
Mather's heart beat thickly. What did
this mean? Should be wake Parker!
Nonsense! That fellow with nerves OF
steel would think any man a coward VINO
imagined a danger possible until he was
face to face with it. Probably the
woman was i'll and her husband had
gone for doctor; or perhaps, IN spite OF
Frosts respectable appearance, his bust
ness was moonShining business when
Mather believed was pursued in such
midnight hours.
Ten minutes later he slept profoundly,
and if was his companions voice that
next reused him.
The attic was full of faring, uncertain
light, through which tall figures and
fierce faces appeared unsubstantlally y,
while Parker, sitting on the edge OF the
bed, ieered at these ominOus visitors.
Reckon none of you gents has ever
seen a theater," he drawled. If this IS
a dramatic scene you are aiming to put
on, I'll give you pointers which
Shut up, Jim Bassett!'' somebody
interrupted.
Has that fool b1under brought you
all out of your beds?" he demanded.
"Mr. Frost, sir, | thought you allowed
that likeness to be misleading when we
spoke about it last night.
INV wife Swore to me after you come
up here that you were him as killed her
brother Dave when her dads still was
raided," Frost said sullenly. L could
have shot you without this fuss; but
I've always stood ag'in DRAWN my gun
unbeknown to the other fellOw-and L
wanted you should get the chance to
show YOU are q IdTkeT IL YOU Gail
That depends upon what you call
showing" Parker declared with scorn.
A man doesn't stuff letters and papers
into his kit when he starts across these
mountains. But no more does man,
as smart as I've heard Bassett allowed,
stick his head back into lassO which
has just slipped off of him-and I've
done that, if I'm Bassett.'
He turned his bold eyes to Mather's
dismayed countenance. Mr.. Mather'
sir, please tell these gentlemen about
those Simpson boys yesterday, and that
YOU and | are tired of fitting spectacles
to near sighted bunglers.'
Sincere belief has a force as convincing
as much more logical proof. Mather's
vehement confession of faith that his
guide was a Parker, nephew to Dan
Parker of Wide Mouth Gap, known and
respected by all these mOuntaineers,
rang true in every word, while his story
of the Simpsons discontinue added to
their sudden doubt. Even such lawless
vengeance as they purposed required
certainty as to their victim and they
