At White river ford. the men looked
at each other in mute inquiry. The
stream was a raging torrent 1t was
swollen until 1t was half again its

waters were rushing and twisting into

somewhat apart awaiting the end OF
the controversy, with a good.humored
smile in his twinkling blue eyes.
Paul urged Sade into the water. He

Suddenly, without warning, Sade
