CHAPTER VI.
Red Dawn.


Presently Amber rose and quietly
exchanged dressing gown and slippers
for his own shooting jacket and boots
which by now were dry, thanks to
Doggott's thoughfulnegs in placing
them near the fire.
The shabby tin clock had droned
through 30 minutes since Rutton had
spoken his last word. In that inter
val, sitting face to face, and for a lit
tie time hand in hand, with the man
to whom he had pledged his honor,
Amber had thought deeply, carefully
weighing ways and means; nor did he
move until he believed his plans ma
ture and definite.
But before he could take one step
toward redeeming his word to Rut-
ton, he had many cares to dispose Of.
In the hut. Rutton lay dead of poison;
somewhere among the dunes the babu
lay In his blood, shot to death--foully
murdered, the world would say
Should these things become known, ne
would be detained indefinitely In No
komis as witness-if, indeed. he es-
capped graver charge.
1t was. then with mind burdened
with black anxiety that he went to
arouse Doggott.
"Mr. Rutton is dead, Doggott,' he
managed to say with some difficulty.
Doggott exclaimed beneath his
breath. Dead" he cried in tone Of
daze. In two strides he had left Am
Der and was kneeling by Rutton's
side. The most cursory examination,
however, sufficed to resolve his every
doubt.
Dead" whispered the servant. He
rose and stood swaying, his lips
a-tremble, his eyes blinking through a
mist his head bowed "'E always
was uncommon good to me, Mr.. Am
ber." he said brokenly. IT'S a bit
ard comm this wy. 'Ow-'ow did
it" He broke down completely for
time.
When he had himself in more con-
troll Amber told him as briefly as pos
sible of the head at the window and
of it's sequel-Rutton's despairlng sui
eide.
Doggott listened In silence, nodding
his comprehension. I've always look,

Then, reverently, they took up the
body and laid it out upon the ham
mock-bed. Doggott arranging the
limbs and closing the eyes befors

And now. what. Mr.. Amber?' he
asked
Mr.. Rutton spoke Of dispatch

A faint suspicion of the truth quick

Then why won't my-my love for

Amber's hands.
Dazed, the younger man stared
