hat Old Cy felt somewhat dubious.
and so the old man mourned.
There was no real reason for II, for
all Nature was now smiling. The lake
was blue and rippled by the June
breezes; trout leaped out Of II night
and morning; flowers were blooming,
squirrels frlsking. birds singing and
nest.bulding: and what Old Cy most
enjoyed, the vernal season was at
hand.
Another matter also disturbed him
the whereabouts OF Mcclure and the
halfbreed, Pete Bolduc.
Levi had brought the information
that neither had been seen nor heard
OF since the previous autumn; but
that was not conclusive. and somehow
Old Cy felt that Il certain mystery had
attached itself to them, and once we
suspect a mystery. II pursues us like
phantom. He did not fear either OF
these renegades. however. He had
never harmed them. But he felt that
any day might bring n call from one
or the other. or that some tragic out.
come would be disclosed.
Another problem also annoyed him
who this thief OF their game could
be. and whether his supposed cave lair
was q permanent hiding spot
Two reasons had kept Old Cy from
another visit to that sequcstered lake
! during the fall trapping season: first,
its evident danger. and then lack of
time But now. with nothing to do ex.
cept walt for the incoming ones. an
! impulse to visit again this mysterious
| spot came to him.
He had. at the former excursion. felt
almost certain that this unknown trap.
! per was either Mcclure or the half.
! breed. Some assertions made by Levi
! seemed to corrobOrate that theory, and
impelled by II. Old Cy started alone.
! one morning. to visit this lake again.
It took him until midday to carry his
canoe camp outfit. rife. and all across
from the stream To stream, and twi.
light had come ere he reached the Ia.
COON where he and Ray had left the
main stream and camPed. Up here
! Old Cy now turned his canoe, and re.
pairing the bark shack they had built
which had been crushed by winter
snow, he camped there again.
Next morning, bright and early, he
! launched his canoe and once more fol
lowed the winding stream through the
dark gorge and out into the rippled
lake again.
Here he halted and looked about.
No signs OF aught human could bS
