iy "The Aaa W. claimed to have

BLACK Bart Hawley."
The boy liftsl his head again. IN
eyes filled with suspicion.
Yes. n you must know: he's .
gambler ell right, but he's stuck 10
me when ! was down and out You
know him."
Just a little" carelessly: but what
sort of trick could he be working
trying to make you acknowledge
Christie Maclaire as your sister,"
Nilloughby did not answer, shifting
uReasily about on the bed. Keith
waited, and at last the boy blurtsd
cut:
'Oh. IT wasn't nothing much. | told
him something when I was drunk
once, that ! thought maybe might
have stuck to him. Odd he should
make that mistake, too. for I showed
him Hopes picture. Bart's a schemer.
and ! didn't know but what he might
have figured out a trick, though !
don't see how he could. 1t wasn't no
more than . pipe dream. I reckon.
Where did you meet Hope Back IN
Missouri"
One thing was clearly evident-the
boys faith in his sister. II he WAS
10 be rightly Influenced, and led back
20 her. he must have no suspicion
aroused that her life was any differ
ent from what II had b~No Sefore he
left home. Besides II k-AtA 4oped TO
gain any inkling of what Hawey's
purpose could be. he must win the
con fidence of willoughby. This could
not be done by telling him of Hopes
present NE. These considerations
Mashed through his mind. and as swift
~ determin@l his answer.
