rage against the two who had banned
him and enjoyed immunity from him
80 long, almost led him to attempt to
break into the hut then and there, and
settle matters; but his saner common
would almost inevitably be against
him should he attempt it.
He was still entertaining this no
ton, however. when a luminous idea
occurred to him. Around on the far
side OF the hut, the west side, which
looked toward the headlands. was a
good-sized heap of f1re-wood. which
Philip had not been able to fnd
room for inside the hut. Roscoe had
with him flint and steel and a
quantity of tow. He never travelled
without them.
With infinite precaution against
noise he began laying a fire against
the windward wall of the hut. Squat
ting. with his rife across his knees
ready to use in case Of an emergency.
he methodically whitfield quantity Of
dry splinters of a few Of the sticks,
ignited them and carefully nursed the
blaze, until, under the rising wind, 1t
grew to the beginning Of fair-sized
confagration. Then. catching up his
rife, he slipped around the other side
of the hut, crouching down not more
than 20 PAGES away, and waited.
Already the fire WAS burning finely
and the silhouetted outline Of the hut
was plain against the glow of 1t.
His plan was a good one. The peo-
pie inside the hut would have no
choice and, probably. no thought, but
of escape. When they rushed out, as
they almost certainly would. bewild-
cred and confused, and plainly visible
to him against the glow Of the fire be-
hind them. 1t would be easy, from the
the man.
1t was only, indeed. by the merest
hairs breadth that Roscoe's plain
failed to work. The instinct Of es-
cape by the nearest way from burn
ing building is almost irresistible. and
1t led Philip and Jeanne to the very
edge of the destruction. which Roscoe
had planned for them.
Cayley had his hand upon the bolt
Of the great door. whittier he had
sprung when Jeanne's cry had awak-
ened him. before the saving second
thought stayed him and held him
frozen where he was. For perhaps
FIVE seconds he stood there, while the
memory of the unexplained bullet hole
he had found in the body of the great
bear, and the belated observation that
the fire. which was destroying the hut,
must have been started outside OF it,

much with a rine; and he remember
ed the deadly revolver shooting he
had seen upon the body Of the bear.
Also he would have to 90 into the
dark, with the freight behind him
No. 1t wouldn't do. He must wait
Well, he could afford to wait-much
better than they could.
Reluctantly he rose, turned his
broad back to the gale. and began ma
king his laborious way back to the
cave.
1t was high time. His face was
