to Nathaniel Had he possessed the
use of his voice when the Mormons
were leaving he would have called
upon them to return and lengthen the
thongs about his ankles by an inch
or two. Now, with almost brutal
frankness, Neil had explained to him
the meaning of his strange posture.
His knees began to ache. An oc-
casional sharp pain shot up from them
to his hips, and the thong about his
neck, which at first he had used as
support for his chin, began to irritate
him At times he found himself rest
ing upon it so heavily that 1t short
ened his breath, and he was compelled
to straighten himself, putting his
whole weight on his twisted feet 1t

Nathaniel grew hot with the sweat of
horror. If he could only have added
his own voice to those cries, shrieked
out the words with Neil-jOined even
unavailingly in this last fight for life,
it would not have been so bad. But
he was helpless. He watched the des-
peration grow in his companions face
as there came no response save the
haunting echoes; even in the light OF
the stars he saw that face darken with
it's effort, the eyes fill with mad
light, and the throat strain against its
choking thong. Gradually Neil's voice
| became weaker. When he stopped to
rest and listen his painting breath

Marion's brother had turned toward

Nathaniel raised his own head, and

long time his companion did not
break the silence. Mentally he began
counting off the seconds. 1t was past
midnight-probably one o'clock. Dawn
