Squire's got. This is all the farther
we're goin', I'll tell yeh that" The
three huddled together like chill
dren at night after q ghost story.
Then Dan gripped his fists hard
and crep ahead as II stalking some
fearful wild beast. Ten steps and he
stopped short with a sudden drawing In
of the breath.
"Ah!" Before him stood the cabin
with a black ring around II like the
rope-mark abou the neck of a hanged
a His knees smote together, but 10
started on. Again he stopped In utter
terror. Was that a spark that had
floated up from the old roof? And. oh,
horrorl The windows seemed to a
a light in them-a CHASTITY red a
seemed to him 10 ficker b~alefully like
phosphorus marks on q wall.
Pshaw! IT vas his Imagination. He
forced himself to take another step for
ward. He would make a run for 1t and
nave 1t done with. But his heart gave
a mighty leap into his throat n stuck
there, beating ~furiously until he could
scarcely breathe. The light iickered
suddenly brighter, a dark shadow
seemed to glide before the window,
there was something black and sinewy
writing at the corner OF the cabin as
If for a spring. Then suddenly there
rang out a gibbering laugh the like or
when he n never even dreamed OF,
Their a string of curses hat bubbled
n cracked like boiling birthstone.
The man was no longer free to act.
His brain no longer guided him. When
next he could think his legs were flying
beneath him as never before in his life,
and he was hurting down the valley
faster than the winds, which, shrieking
In fiendish glee, were chasing him from
the Gap. But fast as he ran he was
far In the rear OF two other figures
which never nee stopped until they
arrived, ~breathless and spent, before
Squire Hartswick's store.

In the course OF its long history Eng
land has known a few serious earth
quake shocks, say the London Chroni-
tcle. In the days OF William Rufus one
was felt throughout the country, and In
1274 an English earthquake destroyed
Glastonbury among its other damage,
while part of st. Paul's cathedral fell
In as the result OF an earthquake In the
sixteenth century, Perhaps the most
recent serious shock was that which
anfiicted much damage in the eastern
counties in 1884: a Mansion house fund
was opened for the sufferers.
