MIGHT BE CALLED EVIDENCE
At Least Participant in Fight Had
Reason to Believe He Was
Telling the Truth.

Two colored soldiers at frontier
post had a fight, during which one Of
the combatants lost an ear, and the
other was accused of having bitten it
off. The case was tried by a general
court-martial, and the counsel for the
defense, in cross-examination OF the
one-eared man, the principal witness
for the prosecution, asked: Where
did this fight take place." "In Mista
Nelson's con field, jes' outside de
reservation" answered the witness.
What was the condition Of the
ground?" Hit wuz covered wild stub

said the counsel, glazing at the wit
ness, you are on oath, and will get
into serious trouble If you tell any
thing but the truth. Could not your

stubble?" "Yaas, sah," said the wit

The Lexington man went back. For
a minute or two Jim Holman sat

Mounting, they Licked their mules
into a jog From sne men inside the
fence came no note of derision, no
hint Of triumph. They stood looking
out with expressionless, masklike
faces until their enemies had passed
out of sight around the shoulder OF
the mountain. The Souths had met and
fronted an accusation made after the
enemy's own choice and method. A
jury of two hounds had acquitted
them. II was not only because the
dogs had refused to recognize in Sam

enemy rode on grudgingly convinced

CHAPTER v.

From time to time that day, neigh
bors had ridden up to Spicer South's
stile, and drawn rein for gossip. These
men brought bulletins as TO the prog
ress of the hounds, and near shutdown,
as a postscript to their information, a
volley of gunshot signals sounded from
a mountain top. No word was spoken
but in common accord the kinsmen
rose from their chairs, and drifted to-
ward their leaning rifles.
They're a-comin' hyar," said the
head of the house, curtly. Samson
ought ter be home. Whar's Tam'rack|
No one had noticed his absence I'M
til that moment, nor was he to be
found. A few minutes later, Samson's
figure swung into sight, and his uncle
met him at the fence.
Samson, I've done asked We all the
questions I'm a-goin' ter ask ye," he
said, but them dawgs is maxim fer
this house. They've jest been sighted
mile below"
Samson nodded.
"Now'-Spicer South's face hard

ter do jest what we says"
Lescott did not overhear the con
versation in full, but he saw the ole
mans face work with suppressed pas
sion, and he caught Samson's louder
reply.

two men turned toward the house
Already the other clansmen had dis

Fifteen minutes later, Lescott, stand

eral travel-stained men were leading
mules, and holding two tawny and i'm
patient dogs in leash. In their num-
ber the artist recognized his host Of
two nights ago.
They halted at a distance, and In
their faces the artist read dismay, for,
while the dogs were yelping confident

Samson South-who should, by their
prejudiced convictions, be hiding out
in some secret stronghold-sat at the
top step of the stile, smoking his pipe.
and regarded them with a lack-luster
absence of interest. Such a calm re-
ception was uncanny. After a whis-
pered conference, the Lexington man
came forward alone. Old Spicer South
had been looking on from the door,
and was now strolling out to meet the
envoy, unarmed.
And the envoy, as he came, held his
hands unnecessarily far away from his

and poured drink of red whisky into
a flask cup.

mented, "These dogs haven't any

tility, had so willingly courted the acid
test Of guilt or innocence.
Days passed uneventfully after that.
The kinsmen dispersed to their scat
tered coves and cabins. Now and
again came a rumor that Jesse Purvy
was dying, but always hard on its
heels came another to the effect that
the obdurate fighter had rallied,
though the doctors held out small en-
couragement of recovery.
One day Lescott, whose bandaged
arm gave him much pain, but who was
able to get about, was strolling not far
from the house with Samson. They
were following a narrow trail along
the mountain side, and, at sound no
louder than the falling of a walnut,
the boy halted and laid a silencing
hand on the painters shoulder. Then
| followed an unspoken command in his
companions eyes. Lescott sank down
behind a rock, cloaked with glistening
rhododendron LEAKAGE. where Samson
| had already crouched and become i'm
movable and noiseless. They had
been there only a short time when
they saw another figure slipping qui-
city from tree to tree below them.
For a time the mountain boy
watched the figure and the painter
saw his lips draw in a straight line
and his eyes narrow with a CLINT of
tense hate Yet, moment later, with
a nod to follow, the boy Unexpectedly
rose into view and his features we're

"Mornin, JIM" he called.

manner, he smiled and his own de-
meanor became friendly.

of the priests and rulers. AS this, the

the angel and in its presence became

stone, upon which the seal rested, had
been removed. Bribed, they spread
abroad the tale that the disciples had
stolen his body. The falseness Of
such a tale is evidenced by the fact
that the rankest infidel has not the
temerity to make such a claim today.

OF God. 1t is a vindication of his
