CHAPTER xxxVlIl.
The Hidden Thief.

AS he turned from the room where
these late exciting scenes had oc-
Cured, there was One-COunt Fred
erick-who gazed back with look of
inquiry to the solitary occupant who
tarried there. Kitty Gray, wrapped
in her own anXieties, did not catch
this look of solitude, but as they all
passed out and left her to her own de-
vices, robbed now even of the aid of
her faithful servant, she cast herself
upon a couch in sudden access of ap-
prehensiOn.
Then she paused, her breath held,
her heart sitting her lungs for just an
instant. It seemed to her that she
felt in the couch beneath her some
suspicious movement-yes, it must be
so! She sprang across the room to
the door, her first instinct that of
flight, but halted and found conceal
ment beyond the first curtain of the
alcove. Her eyes were fastened on
the cover CT the couch which but now
she had occupied
Yes, she saw the lid move, saw
hand appear beneath it's edge-saW
a man slowly crowd himself out from
this hiding place within the body of
the couch! It was the face of one Of the
apache banda face that she saw
turned questioningly into the room,
which evidently he thought now va
cant Surely Blake had abundant re-
tainly he himself did not tarry. A
moment, and he was out Of the win
dow and passed from sight as had
his fellows.
There was no time for Kitty to call
for aid, even had there been aid which
she could have summoned. She
wasted no time in utilities, but her
own fashion of self-help, resolved to
lose no opportunity to end certain Of
these complexities. Without time for
thought she sprang after the man, no
definite plan in her mind. AS she did
so, she called out once more, almost
by instinct, upon the one friend who
thus far had not failed her. "Ro-
leau!" she cried,-"Roleau!"
But the faithful Roleau did not hear
his mistress summon him. By this
time he was in the front part of the
hotel, himself in charge of the officers
of the law.
On his way to the station house in
charge of the gendarmes he weighed
deliberately the chances of success
one bold man might have against
these others now torn by indecision;
for certainty tho gendarmes them
selves had come out of this with none
too much glory, and were in no too
good conceit Of themselves. They
walked loosely. heads down, dreading
what lay ahead. 1t was no great feat
for Roleau, half guarded, to spring
away from them at speed, and once
more to gain the front of the hotel.
He passed rapidly to the desk
"Padron." he said to the clerk who
stood there, himself irresolute, "the
captain has asked me to inquire Of her
excellency-" and he did not step to
specify as to the nature of that in
quiry. He sprang to the stair, un-
deferred, ran down the hall, and once
more found open the door of the room

ONE OF LEES BIG
PROPERTY OWNERS

One OF the larges tiesG
plantations in Lee county Is that
of Mr.. Il. l.. Bell, led at
Adams, Georgia. About Iou PEARS
ago Mr.. Rell purchased this desir-
able plantation, paying handsome
price for same. This plantation
consists OF about 1000 acres, nearly
all of it insone body, about 250C
acres in cultivation, balance in
woodland
Mr.. Bell estimates that he will
make between $50 and 600 bales of
cotton this Year and between three
and four thousand bushels OF corn,
besides making plenty of potatoes
and meat for home use. He has
also reaped good oat crop, max
ing from 40 to so bushels to the
acre. He runs about a fifty horse
farm.
Besides this beautiful and valua-
bile plantation, Mr.. Bell has other
splendid farms in Sumter county.

same, and when they retired they
received a handsome price for their
business. Mr.. Nesbit's experience
in the turpentine business was pro-
fitable he being in this line Of bust.
ness when turpentine was selling at
a good price.
Mr.. Ne3bit owns 389 acres Of
land, near Adams, and is cultivat-
ing $50 acres this year. He will
make about 45 bales of cotton, and
on an average OF so bushels Of
corn to the acre; his oat cropyielded
60 bushels to the acre and also
harvested a good hay crop; heraises
all of his meat and will have some
to sell the next year. Although he
did not plant any wheat this year
he has become interested and next
year expects to plant good crop.
The illustration shown in this is
sue of the corn Mr.. Nesbit has
grown, is a brag patch and will yield
easily so bushels to the acre. This
field is ten acres.
Mr.. Neabit is one Of Lees most
substantial farmers and says there
is no better farming country iii
Georgia than Lee county, and while
he loves north Georgia he prefersAo
live in old Lee" and expects to
make his home permanently here.
He is one of our very best citizens,
and We are glad to welcome such
men to our midst.
Mr.. Nesbit was married in June
1904 to Miss Henrietta Beck, of
near Holly Springs, Ga. Two chill
dren have been born to this union,
both. boys, the eldest 10 years Of
age and the Youngest IA months old.

Among the many new corners to
Lee County is Valentine G. Rogers
who moved from Sumter County to
Lee in 1912. Mr.. Rogers was reared
in Carroll County, Georgia, but for
the past twenty years or more, had
lived in Sumter. He purchased the
attractive farm Of Mr.. w. w. Hooks
at Adams in 1912, and has made
two fine crops.
His farm. at Adams consists of
206 acres, about $50 Of which is in
cultivation; six acres are in pecans
and most of the trees are bearing
this year. Mr.. Rogers will make
about 40 bales of cotton and about
600 bushels of corn this year, and
next year he will plant extensively
both wheat and oats. He runs six

He has competent superintendent
on all his plantations and pives very
little attention to them himself.
Mr.. Bell was born in December
1866, in Sumter county, and was
in the mercantile and cotton ware
house business in Americas for
many years and he has been a res
ident Of that county all of his life.
For twelve years he was sheriff OF
Sumter, and although he had
strong opposition two or three times
was never defeated. He is an ex-
cellent gentleman and splendid
farmer, and although he lives in
Americas, Lee county welcomes
him among her property holders.

Among the best farmers in this
section of the state is Mr.. Gideon
Asberry Wallace, the subject of this
article. Mr.. Wallace was oorn in
Worth county, near the line OF
Dougherty, on December 18th, 49,
76. He attended the best schools
in his county and has been II farm
er ever since he has been at work
for himself.
Mr.. Wallace moved to Lee county
in 1904 and purchased the planta-
ton formerly owned by the late Mr..
Frank Minis. This plantation con-
tains $50 acres and is situated one
and one-half miles from Philema.
He runs fifteen-horse farm and
cultivates 800 acres. He will make
an average crop, considering the
acreage planted Of cotton and about
25 bushels of corn to the acre. He
planted wheat and oats both this
year and made a fairly good crop.
Mr.. Wallace has an artesian well
on his place and q fine flowing
spring. He has already begun the
the extensive raising Of hogs, the
Duroc Jersey stock and will con-
tinue to increase his herd until the
stock will reach one thousand or
more pigs annually.
Mr.. Wallace has been on the
County School Board for the past
two years, and in this capacity has
given the county good service. At
the last primary he was elected
Executive Committeeman and made
chairman of the Democratic Ex-
ecutive Committee of the county.
While Mr.. Wallace has made
known no intention Of running for
public office, his name is being
whispered around among his friends,
and some are urging him to run for
a most important county office.
Should he decide to enter the race
for any Office his opponenent will
have 10 hustle to beat bin. He is
a live wire and should he get into
politics his popularity and sincerity,
also his ability will guarantee him
the support Of many warm and in
fluential friends, and if elected to
any office he might aspire to, he
could be counted on making a good
official.
Mr.. Wallace was married in 1900
to Miss Edna Hart Jossey, of Buena
Vista, Ca, and their family consists
of five children, four boys and one
girl.

Business is brisk in the smaller
towns as well as the larger ones in
the county now. Money from the
sale of cotton seed circulates most as
readily as it is received by the
colored people. The prices are
fairly good and there is much acti-
witty in the seed market in all the
towns in the county.

Capt. Jno. NJ. Hines, was born in
Lee county, Ca, at the old Fort
place" on July 20, 1887. At the
