1t was broken by the chairman.
"What is your evidence for this, Brother
McMurdo?" he asked.
at is in this letter which has come into my
hands," said McMurdo. He read the passage
aloud. at is matter of honor with me that
l can give no further particulars about the
letter, nor put it into your hands; but I
assure you that there is nothing else in it
which can affect the interests of the lodge.
1 put the case before you as it reached
me-"
"Let me say, Mr.. Chairman" said one of
the older brethren, "that 1 have heard of
Birdy Edwards, and that he has the name
of being the best man in the Bretherton
service"
"Does anyone know him by sight?" asked
McGinty.
aYes," said McMurdo, Il do"
There was a mur1nur of astonishment
through the hall.
"I believe we hold him in the hollow of Our
hands," he continued with an exulting smile
upon his face "If we act quickly and wisely,
we can cut this thing short. If l have your
confidence and your help, it is little that we
have to fear"
"What have we to fear, anyhow? What
can he know of our affairs?"
"You might say SO if all were as stanch as
you, Councillor. But this man has all the
millions of the capitalists at his back. Do
you think there is no weaker brother among
all our lodges that could not be bought? He
will get at our secrets maybe has got them
already There's only one sure cure"
"That he never leaves the valley" said
Baldwin.
McMurdo nodded. @Good for you, Brother

PART II. The Scowrers
CHAPTER vi Continued. Danger

NET it was clear from McMurdo's
actions that he thought more
seriously of this new intrusion
than his words would show. 1t may
have been his guilty conscience, it may
have been the reputation of the Breth-
erton organization, it may have been
the knowledge that great, rich cor
porations had set themselves the task
of clearing out the Scowrers; but,
whatever his reason, his actions were
those of a man who is preparing for
the worst. Every paper which would
incriminate him was destroyed before
he left the house. After that he gave
a long sigh of satisfaction; for it
seemed to him that he was safe. And
yet the danger must still have pressed
somewhat upon him; for on his way
to the lodge he stopped at old man
Skaters. The house was forbidden
him; but when he tapped at the
window Elite came out to him. The
dancing Irish deviltry had gone from
her lovers eyes. She read his danger
