CHAPTER xxx.
CLOSING In.

In the morning the sun rose with a
Tountain smile. The storm had swept
the air till the ranges shone blue and
the Plain sparkled under a cloudless
sky Bob Scott and Wickwire, riding
at daybreak, picked up trail on the
Fence river road. A consultation was
held at the bridge, and within half
an rour Whispering Smith. with I'M
shaken patience, was in the saddle
and following it.
With him were Kennedy and Bob
Scott. Sinclair had ridden into the
lines, and Whispering Smith, with his
best two men, meant to put it up TO
him to ride out. They meant now to
get him, with trail or without, and
were putting horsef1esh against horse
flesh and craft against craft.
At the forks of the Fence they picked
up Wickwire, Kennedy taking him on
the up road, while Scott with Whisper
ing Smith crossed to the Crawling
Stone. When Smith and Scott reached
the Frenchman they parted to cover in
turn each of the trails by which it Is
possible to get out of the river country
toward the Park and Williams Cache.
BY four O'Clock in the afternoon
they had all covered the ground so
well that the four were able to make
their rendezvous on the big Fence
divide, south of Crawling Stone val
ley. They then found, to their disap-
pointment, that, widely separated as
they had been, both parties were fol-
lowing trails they believed to be good.
They shot a steer, tagged 1t, ate din
ner and supper in one. and separated
under Whispering Smiths counsel
that both the trails be followed into
the next morning-in the belief that
one of them would run out or that
the two would run together. At noon
the next day Scott rode through the
hills from the Fence, and Kennedy
with Wickwire came through Two
Feather pass from the Frenchman
with the report that the game had left
their valleys.
Without rest they pushed on. At
the foot OF the Mission mountains
they picked up the tracks of a party
OF three horsemen. Twice within ten
miles afterward the men they were
following crossed the river. Each
time their trail. with some little diff
