wiped his brow. "but l calculate there
are all of three hundred trees big
enough to cut. Why, suppose they are
worth on an average only a hundred
apiece. That would make-Good
lordi" he muttered, land I've been
incoming about poverty"
The growth was smaller and sparser
now and before long he came, on the
hills very crest, to the edge of a
ragged clearing. It held a sQualid set
Element, perhaps a score of dirt-daubed
cabins little better than novels, some
of them mere mud-walled lean-tos,
with sod roofs and window-panes of
fi~our-sacking. Fences and outhouses
there was none. Uttered paths ram
bled aimlessly hither and thither from
chip-strewn yards to starved patches
of corn, nder-cultivated and blighted.
Over the whole place hung an inde-
scribable atmosphere of disconsolate
filth, of unredeemed squalor and vile
ness.
With one hand on the dogs collar,
hushing him to silence, Valiant, un-
seen, looked at the wretched place
with a shiver. He had glimpsed many
wretched purlieus in the slums of
great cities, but this, in the open sun
light, with the clean woods about 1t
and the sweet clear blue above, stood
out with an unrelieved holiness and
contrast that was doubly sinister and
forbiddings He knew instantly that
the tawdry corner was the community
known as Hell's-Half-Acre, the place
to which Shirley had made her night
ride to rescue Hickey Snyder.
A quick glad realization of her cour-
age rushed through him. On its heels
came a feeling of shame that a spot
like this could exist, a foul blot on
such a landscape. 1t was on his own

squatter sovereignty, but he was,
nevertheless, their landlord. The
thought bred a new of response
bility. Something should be done for
them. too.
AS he gazed, an uproar in a cabin
reached a climax. A red-bearded fig
ure In nondescript garments shot from
the door and collapsed in a heap in
the dirt. He got up with a dreadful
oath-a jug thrown at him grazing
his temple as he did so-and shaking
his fist behind him. staggered into a
nearby lean-to.
Valiant turned away with a feeling
almost of nausea, and plunged back
down the forest hillside.

were hitched at the curb, or moved
leisurely along the leafy street: big.
canvas-topped country wagons drawn
by sh~aggy-hoofed horses and set with
chairs that bumped and jostled their

covered buggies, long narrow, spring

from the primeval depths of cob

The oardeners.

He saw them coming through the
gate on the Red Road-the major and
Shirley in a lilac muslin by his side
and strobe to meet them. Behind
them Ranston propelled a hand-cart
filled with paper bundles from each of
which protruded a bunch of Towering
stems. There was a flush in Shirley's
cheek as her hand lay in Valiant's.
AS for him, his eyes, like a wilful
drunkards, returned again and again,

He looked at Shirley with sparkling
eyes. How splendid of you to bring

With our bushels of them? We
shall never miss them at all. Have
you set out the others?"
Il have, indeed. Every one has
rooted, too. You shall see them" He
led the way up the drive till they
stood before the porch.
"Gadi" chuckled the major. who
would think it had been ~unoccupied
for three decades? At this rate, you'll
soon be giving dances, sab"
"Ah," said Valiant. That's the very
thing / want to suggest. The tourna-
ment comes off next week, l under
stand, and it's been the custom to
have a ball that night. The tourney
ground is on this estate, and Damory
Court is handler than the Country
Club. Why wouldn't it be appropriate
to hold the dance here? The ground
floor rooms are in order, and if the
young people would put up with 1t. it
would be a great pleasure to me, | as

"Ohi" breathed Shirley. THAT
would be too wonderful"

shook it heartily. Il can answer for

jump at it. Why, sab, the new gener-
alton has never set eyes inside the
house. It's a golden legend to them"
Then I'll go ahead with arrange

He led them around the house and
down the terraces of the formal gar
den, and here the majors encomiums
broke forth again. "You are going to
take US old folks back, sah," he said
with real feeling. This garden in
it's original lines was unique. 1t had a
