duty in another light. There were
others who could build the road !;
success, fortune, ambition-in the
old way he had seen them-were
overshadowed now by this love of a
girl.
He stopped and lighted his pipe.
The fragrant odor of the tobacco,
the flavor of the warm smoke in
his mouth. helped to readjust him,
to cool his heated brain. The old
fighting instincts leaped into life
again. Go into the south? He
asked himself the question once
more, and in the gloomy silence
of the forest his low laugh fell
again as he clenched his hands in
anticipation of what was ahead of
him. No-he would build the road!
And in building it he would win
this girl, If it was given for him to
possess her.
His saner thought brought back
his caution. He went more slowly
toward the cabin, keeping in the
deep shadows and stopping now
and then to listen. At the edge of
the clearing he paused for a long
time. There was no sign of life
about the cabin abandoned by
Gregson and Thorne. 1t was prob.
able that the two men who had
passed along the path had returned
to the camp by another trail. and
still keeping as much within the
shadows as possible he went to the
door and entered.
With his feet propped in front of
the big box stove sat Jackpine. The
Indian rose as Rowland entered,
and something in the sullen gloom
of his face caused the young en-.
gineer to eye him questioningly.
ANY one been here, Jackpine?'
The old sledgc-driver gave his
head negative shake and hunched
his shoulders, pointing at the same
time to the table. on which lay a
carefully folded piece of paper.
"Thorne," he grunted.
Rowland spread out the paper In
the light of the lamp, and read:
