An Instructor in a church school
where much attention was paid to
sacred history. dwelt particularly ON
the phrase And Enoch was not, for
God took him." So many times was
this repeated in connection with the
death OF Enoch that he thought even
the dullest p1pil would answer cor
rectly when asked in examination:

Bible what is said of Enoch's death
But this was the answer he got:

Since early morning h: had eaten
nothing and he BEGAN to feel the
physical waa.l in Z craving that was
becoming a-utely uncomfortable. II
Obadiah had not returned to his home
he made up his mind that he would
find entrance to the cabin and help
himself. A sudden turn in the path
which he was following, however, re-
vealed one of the councillors windows
aglow with light, and as he pressed
quietly around the end of the build
ing the sound of a low voice came to
him through the open door. Cautiously
he approached and peered in. A large
oil lamp. the light Of which he had
seen in the window. was burning on
a table in the big room but the voice
came from the little closet into which
Obadiah had taken him the preceding
night. For several minutes. he
crouched and listened. He heard the
c%huckling laugh of the old councillor
and then an jncoherent raving that
set his blood tfngling There is a hor-
ror in the sound of madness, a horror
that creeps to the very pit of ones
soul. that sends shivering dread from
every nerve center. that causes one
who is alone with it to sweat with a
nameless fear. 1t was the voice of
madness that came from that little
room. Before it Nathaniel quailed as
if a clammy hand had reached out
from the darkness and gripped him
by the throat. Ee drew back shiyering
in every limb, and the voice followed
him, shrieking now in a sudden burst
of insane mirth and dying away a
moment later iL a hollow cackling
laugh that seemed to curdle the blood
in his veins. Mad! Obadiah Price was
mad! Step by step Nathaniel fell
back from the door. He felt himself
trembling from head to foot. His heart
thumped within his breast like the
beating of a hammer. For an instant
there was silence-a silence in which
strange dread held him GREATNESS
while he watched the glow In the door
and listened. And after that quiet
there came suddenly a cry that ended
in the eXultant chattering of a name.
At the sound Of that name Ma.
thaniel sprang forward again. 1t was
Marion's name and he strained his
ears to catch the words that Nigh,
follow it. AS he listened, his head
thrust half in at the door, Obadiah's
voice became lower and lower, unit
at last it ceased entirely. Not a step
not a deep breath, not the movement
of a hand disturbed the stiffness oil
the little room. By inches Nathaniel
drew himself inside the door. His
heavy boot caught in a silver on the
step but the rending Of wood brought
40 response. 1t was the quiet o.
death that pervaded the cabin, it wal
q strange, growing fear of death tina
entered Nathaniel as he now hurried
across the room and peered through
the narrow aperture. The old coun

bic, his arms reaching out, his long
thin fingers gripping it's edges, hi
face buried under his shoulders. L

She looked into his face a%nXiously, in
quiringly when they stopped to listen,
like a child who was sure Of a
stronger spirit at her side. She held
her breath when he held his, she
listened when he listened, her feet fell
with velvet stiffness when he stepped
with caution. Her confidence in him
was like a beautiful dream to Ma
thaniel and he trembled when he pic
tured the destruction of it. After a
little he reached over and as if by &C.
cident touched the hand that was ly-
ing on his arm; he dared more after
a moment, and drew the warn little
fingers into his great strong palm and
held them there, his soul thrilled by
their gentle submissiveness. And then
in another breath there came to still
his Joy a thought Of the terrible power
that chained this girl to the Mormon
king. He longed to speak words of
encouragement to her, to instil hope
in her bosom, to ask her to confide in
him the secret Of the shadow which
hung over her, but the memory of
what Neil had said to him held his
lips closed.
They had walked in silence for
many minutes when the girl stopped.

body throbbing with a wild tumult,

freed her hand and stood back, choking
the words that would have revealed
his secret. He lied now for the love
OF this girl. Neil is out there wait

She surrendered to the determine
ton in his voice and they moved SLOW
ly along the path. listening for any
sound that might come from ahead of
them. Nathaniel had already formed
his plan of action. From Marion's
words and the voice in which she had
uttered them he knew that it would
be useless for him as 1t had been for
Neil to urge her to fee from the is
land. There remained but one thing
for him to do. SO he fell back upon the
scheme which he had proposed to
Marion's brother. He realized
that he might be compelled to play
the game single-handed unless he
could secure assistance from Obadiah.
