 door her daughter Jeanne, who was shaking hands with Dunwody be- fore he was half way up the walk. The ejacuiations of Jeanne attracted yet another ear farther within the house. A moment later Dunwedy saw pass before the door a figure which he recognized, a face which called the blood to his own face. An instant later, forgetting everything. he was at the 5oor. had her hands in his own.

CHAPTER Xx, The SPeeter In the House.

THE travel stained figures of Dr.
 Jamieson. Judge Clayton and the Hon. William Jones met
 A the Dunwody coach just as it was leaving at the upper end of St Genevieve's main street
 They had found fresh horses and in the belief of Dunwody it was quite as well that they rode horseback, in com mon with the followers of Hector who presently came dropping after him. The interior of the coach seemed to him more attingly reserved for this lady and himself. None the less, the Hon. William had abated none of his native curiosity. It was his head which presently intruded at the coach | window.
 'tAh, ha!' exclaimed he. What Again? This time there is no conceal ment Dunwody! Come. confess!''
 '1 will confess now as much as l ever had to confess,' retorted Dun- wody angrily. eff you do not know yet of this lady, 1 will introduce you once more.

It is no business of yours or Of mine why she was once there, or cares to go there | dSdAAs DuL SAe IS SOluS dlOHS W1La us out to Tallwoods.''

 "Precisely!" ventured Josephine leaning out of the window. "That is why l am coming tonight. under stand there has been trouble down here-that it came out of the work o1 our colonization society," "Ratheri' said Clayton grimly.
 "I was back of that. But, believe me, as I told MT. Dunwody. I was moi in the least responsible for the run ming off of negroes in this neighbor hood. 1 thought, if I should go out there and tell these other gentlemen that they would understand" | Gro Be Continued.)

A moment later Dunwody had left the room to meet old Eleazar, who made such response as he could to the hurried queries. Monsieur" said he, '1 have ridden down from the hills. There is trouble In the neighborhood are some who are angry because their negroes have disappear. They accuse M. Dunwodee of being the cause and say that he is traitor, a tdrncoat. This very night band are said to plan an attack upon the house of monsieur. I have met above there M. Clayton, M. Bill Jones, Nj. le Docteur Jamieson and others, who ride to the assistance of M. Dunwodee. It is this very night, and I-there being no other to come have come to advise. Believing that monsieur might desire to carry with him certain friends, I have brought the large carriage. It is herei''
 '"Thank Godv' said Dunwo1y, they don't vote with me, but they ride with me sttll-they're my neighbors, my friends, even yet!
 Hector he exclaimed suddenly, 'scome here!' Then, as they both lis tened, he went on: '"Tell the people there cannot be a meeting after all. I am going back to my house, to see lE get a fresh horse? And are there any friends who would go with you?"
 The sturdy young cooper did not lack in courage, and his response was in- stant- ''Assuredly I have a horse, mon- sieur,'' was his reply. s'Assuredly we have friends. Six, ten. seven, height person shall go with us within the hour. But must tell''-
 Jeanne was at his elbow, catching scent of something of this, guessing at possible danger. She broke out now into loud expostula tons at this rash ness of her spouse. parent of this prog eny of theirs. thus undertaking to ex- pose himself to midnight dangers. Hec- tor, none the less, shook his head.
 Much of this conversation, loud and excited as it was, could not fail to reach the ears of Josephine, who pres ently had joined them and who now heard the story of the old man. so fully confirming all Dunwody said.
 sThere is trouble! There is troub1er' she said, with her usual prompt deci- sion. '"There is room for me in the coach. am going along"
 "You-what in the world do you mean? You'll do nothing of the sort '' rejoined Dunwody. ''Its going to be no place for women up there. It's a fight this time"
 Perhaps not for Jeanne or Hector s mother or for many women, but for me it is the very place where belong. I made that trouble yonder. It was I. not you, who caused that disaffection among the blacks. Your neighbors ought to blame me, not you. I will explain it all to them in a moment, in an instant. Surely they will listen to me- Yes, am going.'
