captive within the tent drew my at

to the sergeant Of the guard. only to
be met with the curt reply:

IT continued my rounds and was
again met with the request. Again
reported the matter. and this time the
reply was as curt, but a bit stronger.
so l went on my rounds again. As
passed the spot this time the voice
from within said:
Say. corporal. you are Of the Essex
regiment

prisoner said:

He stood there. one arm thrown
over the neck Of the horse, watching
them ride away up the trail. The
lieutenant and the girl were together
at the rear of the short column, and
he seemed to be talking earnestly.
Hamlin never moved, or took his eyes
from her until they disappeared over
the ridce. Just as they dipped down
out of sight she turned and waved
one hand. Then the mans gaze swept
over the debris Of the burned stage,
and the two mounds of earth. Even
these mute evidences Of tragedy
scarcely suf1iced to make him realize
all that had occurred in this lonely
spot. He could not seem to separate
his thought from the cavalcade which
had Just departed, leaving behind the
memory OF that farewell wave OF the
hand, To him it marked the end or
q dream, the return to a life distaste-
full and lonely.
