cheeks and forehead. He could see

and muscles taut for his rush.
Then, just thep, he saw the thing
that made Jeanne close her. eyes, the
flashing sword-cut of that great gold
en- wing, as the thing it bore turned
upon the other.
Roscoe dropped down, as II he had
been blasted by the sight of a sword
rock. He lay there. prone. hugging
his head In his arms. He did not
rouse himself, did not succeed In fore
ing his treacherous nerves and mus
cles to obey his will until it was quite
dark. Then, without glance behind
him, he arose and began scramblfng
rnadly up the broken face of the ta1us,
and, reaching the top Of 1t. went on
and scaled the cliff itself It was a
feat which even he could hardly have
accomplished except under the ex-
tremity of terror.
For only SO long as wis necessary
to regain his breath, he lay painting
upon the cliff-head. In the dark, rush.
ing along as If the precipitous trail he
followed had been a well-worn thor
oughfare, he retraced his way down
the landward side Of the mountain
and across the valley. He did not
pause until he found himself safe in
the cave again beside the glacier.

CHAPTER XVIII.
An Attack.


The fact that their enemy was
alone and that he was Roscoe himself
was responsible for the conviction
that Cayley's wings were all that
stood between them and an attack.
No terror attributable to human
causes would have held back that
solitary and altogether desperate out
cast
The thing in the situation which
caused Cayley the most uneasiness
was the fear that some time or other
Roscoe would solve the mystery,
would see him In the very act Of
taking to the air This fear suggested
an expedient to him one day as he
was flying along near the snow-crest-
ed edge of the cliff

the ice pack below him. he caught his
first glimpse of the unknown land
where Captain Fielding had met his
tragic fate so many years before. Three
days since he had witnessed, from
aloft, the murder of q man he might
have saved, the man to whom, had
he saved him. he might have turned
for exoneration from a stain upon his
name which was now ineradicable.
Three days ago he had thought his
world was empty, swept clean Of hu-
man concern and human affection.
Three days ago he had not known that
Jeanne Fielding existed
AS for the identity of the monster
who had left the proof Of his existence
In those tracks which Philip had dis
covered in the snow, they Of course
had no certain knowledge; neverthe-
less. they entertained but little doubt
that he was Roscoe himself. The foot
prints were immense, Cayley said. and
their distance apart bespoke the stride
of . giant.
II 1t were Roscoe who had been
crouching there behind the boulder.
then IT seemed to them unlikely that
he was here alone; unlikely that he
had not at least two or three of his
crew with him
That idea, when It first occurred to
them. brought little added terror with
it. The person Of the monstrous muir
derous rufian. who was the chief,
dwarfed his subordinates to pygmies.
Yet when they came to think over the
situation. reasonably. this uncertainty
as to the number of their enemy
proved a vital element in it 1t put
an unequivocal veto upon Cayley's
first plan. which was to start out at
once and take the aggressive against
their enemy, before he should have
time to move against them
This bit of beach where the hut
stood was practically fortified The
cliff behind 1t was absolutely sheer.
and was capped with deep. perpetual
snow. Half mile to the westward
was the promontory, and about half
a mile up the beach from the hut. TO
the eastward, the glacier projected
its ice masses in a long foe out to
seaward. This glacier provided the
only practicable means of entrance to
the interior valley and the ledge
where the gold was.

angel / thought of 1t when saw the
mound up on the cliff-head that is
formed by the observatory. 1t can't
be buried so very deep in the snow
because the mound isn't so very big.
I'm going up there now to dig 1t out,
enough. at least, SO that can take
wing from there"
You never can dig out enough snow
to get running start up there" she
objected.
Il sha'n't have to. I'll Just dive on
the cliff"
Philip, you sha'n't!"
Why not?"
You know what you told me your
self That none of the big birds can
take to the air without a running
start; and about taking pelicans and
birds like that up into high buildings
and throwing them out of Window
and how they were always killed"
That's because they've only got
instinct instead of intelligence. None
Of their family had ever been thrown
out of windows before. and they didn't
know what to do. But l can get my
start quite as safely that way as any
other Oh. yes, I've done It, Do you
imagine. Jeanne dear. that I'd take an
unnecessary risk so long as my life
is the only possible protection there
is for yours?'
He spent the rest of the day tun-
nelling out from the observatory. He
did not dig in the snow? he simply
packed it. gradually enlarging the
space from a section the size of the
cliffs edge wide enough'for the fun
