 "I don't think he expected us so soon." John remarked.
 "A good cook always has grub for people that drop in unexpected like.' was the grim response. Just take a peek down there now"
 Through the window John saw that the camp was quietly but surely di- yiding into two parties The elder miners were gathered about the cook shanty. Around the office stood a dozen or so malcontents half drunk. under the leadership of Tubbs, who

 Wukerson had lost his sense of fear oddly enough As he had come into the camp dozen miners had recog- uized him and scowled. He had felt tbeir hatred. and 1t fed fat the mans sinister passion to do harm, to hurt to destroy. Now he faced Drake and Tubbs arrogantly.
 Ut won't be long til these chaps find out who's the boss" he said. With a significant look at Drake he pulled out the forged deeds and hand ed them to Tubbs.
 "Those mean that I'm legally the owner of the Master Key mine." he announced
 The engineer peered at them duly He haltingly mumbled over some of the legal phrases at the beginning, saw the names Thomas Gallon and Harry Wilkerson prominently displayed. He was impressed. He did not understand the purport of the papers. He did un derstand that Wikerson was smiling with the insolence of triumph achiev ed. He grinned slowly and passed the papers back.
 "l guess that'll hx 'emr he said hus klly. =

 Tubbs seemed thoughttul, glapcini out of the window now and again Drake voiced hle feeling.
