otherwise, they argued, he would not have
troubled to write down and forward such trivial
information as McMurdo claimed to have given1
him. However, all this they would learn from
his own lips Once in their power, they would
find way to make him speak 1t was not the
first time that they had handled an unwilling
witness.
McMurdo went to Hobsons Patch as agreed.
The police seemed to take particular interest
in him that morning, and Captain Marvin
who had claimed the old acquaintance with him

eminent Bodymastcr," said McMurdo ear
nestly, "I would put it to you that this is too
vital thing for to discuss in open lodge God
forbid that | should throw doubt anyone
here; but if so much word of gossip got to
the ears of this man, there would be end of any
chance of our getting him. | would ask the lodge
to choose a trlsty committee, Mr. Chair7nan,-
yourself, if might suggest it, and Brother Bald
win here, and five more. Then can talk freely of
what know and of what advise should be DONE"
T., The proposition was at once adopted, and the
committee chosen. Besides the chairman and
Baldwin there the vulture-faced secretary
Harraway, Tiger Cornac the brutal young as
sassn Carter the treasurer, and the brothers Will
laby fearless and desperate men who would stick
at nothing.
The usual revelry of the lodge was short and
subdued; for there was cloud upon the mems
spirits and many there for the first time began to
see the cloud of avenging Law drifting up in that
serene sky under which they had dwelt SO long
The horrors they had dealt out to others had been
SO much part of their settled lives that the
thought of retrbution had become remote one
and so seemed the more startling now that it
came SO closely upon them. They broke up early
and left their leaders to their council.
Nov, McMurdo" said McGinty when they
were alone. ="

because fell into talk with him. thought
little of it at the time nor would have given it a
second thought but for this letter; but now I'm
sure it's the man. l met him on the cars when

what do you allow that we
should do about it?"
"Why not go right down
now and fix hi1n?" someone
suggested.
"Aye, the sooner the better"
"I'd start this next minute if
| knew where we could find
him." said McMurdo. "He's in
Hobsons Patch; but l don't
know the house. I've got a
plan, though, if you'll only
take my advice"
"Well, what is it?"
"I'll go to the Patch tomor-
row morning. I'll find him
through the operator. He can
locate him, guess. Well, then
I'll tell him that I'm a Freeman
myself. I'll offer him all the
secrets of the lodge for a price.
You bet he'll tumble to it! I'll
tell him the papers are at my
house, and that it's as much as
my life would be worth to let
him come while folk were
about. He'll see that that's
horse sense. Let him come at
ten o'clock at night, and he
shall see everything. That will
fetch him sure"
"Well?"
"You can plan the rest for
yourselves. Widow MacNa-
mara is a lonely house. She's
as true as steel and as deaf as a
post. There's only Scanlan and
me in the house. If | get his
promise, and I'll let you know
if | do,-I'd have the whole
seven of you come to me bynine
o'clock. Well get him in. If
ever he gets out alive-well; he
can,talk of Birdy Edwards luck
for the rest of his days."
"There's going to be a va
cancy at Bretherton's or I'm
mistaken. Leave it at that, Nc
Murdo. At nine tomorrow we'll
be with you. You once get the
door shut behind him, and you
can leave the rest with u.s."
CHAPTER VII
The Trapping of Birdy Edwards
As McMurdo had said, the
house in which he lived
was a lonely one and very we'll
suited for such a crime as they
had planned. 1t was on the
extreme fringe of the town and
stood well back from the road.

ators would have simply called out their man,
as they had many time before, and emptied
their pistols into his body; but in this instance
it was very necessary to find out how much
he knew, how he knew it, and what had been
passed on to his employers
1t was possible that they were already too
late and that the work had been done If that
were indeed So they could at least have their re-
venge upon the man who had done it. But they
were hopeful that nothing of great Importance
had yet come to the detectives knowledge; as

manufacturers of the w. B. fine cut
chewing tobacco, asking for an injunc
tion to prevent DR.. Ladd from prose-
cutting the dealers who handle the
product under the state snuff law.
The action is the result of bulle-
tin sent out some time ago by DR..
Ladd branding w. B. as snuff and
that it's sale was illegal. The bulletin
was accompanied by an opinion Of the
attorney general of the state that the
tobacco in question came under the
classification of snuff as it is defined
by the North Dakota laws and that its
sale is illegal.
Engerud, Holt & Frame are attor-
neys for the plaintiff manufacturers.
The case will be an interesting one.
