Two Belfast young men returned to
their homes Saturda ay morning bring
ing with them the first two moose
brought into that section this year.
They were Sammy Durost and
Fred Condor and to say that they
feel good over the exploit is putting
it mildly. This was their first trip
into the woods and they were without
a guide. They went into the woods
at Sourandkunk, and put up at Nc
Manus's camp. They spent five days
hunting and one morning while alone
in the woods they came upon a drove
of four moose. Each man fired
shot. Durost's moose weighed 800
pounds while that shot by Condor
weighed little over 700. The young
men also got fine deer while in the
woods which they gave to Frank Nc
Manus, the camp owner. They left
the heads of the game in Batten to be
mounted and brought the rest of the
the carcass home. The larger of the
two moose had spread of so inches
between his horns while the other
had 40 inches.

Forrest jumped to his feet. The red

and the angry light IN his eyes seemed
to leap like little tickering flames.

as suddenly as he had come.
Amelia sat down again, feeling very
small and mean. 1t was quite evident
that the heir OF the house Of Forrest
would have ignored the feud II she,
the last save one Of the Vernets, had
chosen to overlook the antl9a hy that
had lasted for sixty long years.
But Amelia Vernct was VirGininn to

ally nursed the tradition.
And here was young man, last Of

for she had liked the young man who
had been away so long and who must
have recently returned.
There came loud roar Of thunder

There was vivid fash of lightning
Amelia turned and fed toward the in

Amelia blushed hotly. "Of course
do not object" she said, with embar-
rassment
The drenching came before they
reached the mainland. Amelia cow
cred In the bottom Of the boat, while
Forrest removed his coat and, In spite
Of her protests. threw 1t over her to
shut out the lightning and rain.
At the landing an ancient ssrvitor
was seeking Miss Nernet and he hur-
ried his young mistress into the phae-
ton before she could properly thank
Donald Forrest.
"Fo' de lau Miss Melia. you Aunt
Tommy Is nigh bout 'stracted," mum
bed Uncle Aaron peevishly as he
gathered up the reins.
A week later Amelia stood in the
brown October garden among some
late poppies. She looked pensIvely
over the stone wall to where the bay
sparkled and dimpled in the sunlight.
There was n quick step beside her. and
she looked up into Donald FORESTS s
smiling face.
