 CHAPTER VI.

Lescott had come to the mountains anticipating visit of two weeks. His accident had resolved him to shorten it to the nearest day upon which he felt capable of making the trip out to the railroad. Yet June had ended July had burned the slopes from em- erald to russet-green; August mad brought purple tops to the ironweed l and still he found himself lingering And this was true although he recog- nized growing sentiment of disap- proval for himself In Samson he thought he recognized twin gifts; a spark of genius too rare to be al lowed to flicker out, and a potentiality for constructive work among his own people, which needed for it's perfeeting only education and experience.
 Samson" he suggested one day when they were alone, T want you to come East. You say that gun is your tool, and that each man must stick to his own. You are in part right, in part wrong. A man uses any tool bet ter for understanding other tools. You have the right to use your brains and. talents to the full"
 The boys face was somber in the intensity of his mental struggle, and his answer had that sullen ring which was not really sullenness at all, but self-repression.
 "I reckon feller's biggest right is to stand by his kinfolks. Unc' Spicer's gittin' old He's done been good ter me. He needs me here"
 "I appreciate that. He will be older later. You can go now, and come back to him when he needs you more. If what 1 urged meant disloyalty to your people, I could cut out my tongue be- fore l argued for it. You must be- lieve me in that. I want you to be in the fullest sense your peoples leader. l want you to be not only their Sam son-but their Moses"
 The boy looked up and nodded.
 q reckon ye aims ter be friendly, all right" was his conservative re- sponse.
 The painter went on earnestly:
 q realize that I am urging things of which your people disapproye, but 1t is only because they misunderstood that they do disapprove They are too close, Samson, to see the purple that noun tains have when they are far away. l want you to go where you can see the purple. If you are the sort of mau 1 think, you won't be besuiled. You won't lose your loyalty. You won't be ashamed of your people,
 q reckon I wouldn't be ashamed" said the youth ''I reckon there hain't no better folks nowhar.
 I'm sure of it. There are going to be sweeping changes in these noun tains. Conditions here have stood as immutably ehangeiess as the hills themselves for hundred years. That day is at it's twilight. 1 tell you. 1 know what I'm talking about. The state of Kentucky is looking this way The state must develop, and 1t is here alone that it can develop. Here are virgin forests and almost ineXhaust- ible coal veins. Capital is turning from an orange squeezed dry, and cast ing about for fresher food. Capital has seen your hills. Capital is inevitable, relentless, omnipotent. Where it comes, it makes it's laws Conditions that have existed undisturbed will vanish. The law of the feud, which militia and courts have not been able to abate, will vanish before capitals breath like

 Holman is on the trail with b1oedheunds hunting the man who shot Purvy.
 But, an hour later, while the boy was still working industriously and the artist was lying on his back, with a pipe between his teeth, and his half- closed eyes gazing up contentedly through the green Of overhead branches, their peace was broken by a guffaw of derisive laughter. They looked up to find at their backs semi circle of scoffing humanity. Leseott's impulse was to laugh, for only tic comedy of the situation at the mo- ment struck him. A stage director, setting comedy scene with that most ancient of jests, the gawking of bocbs at some new sight, could hardly have improved on this tableau At the front stood Tamaraek Spicer, the returned wanderer. His lean wrist was stretched out of ragged sleeve all too short, and his tattered Jimmy" was showed bae. over face all a-grin. His eyes were blood-shot with recent drinking, hpt his manner was in exaggerated and cumbersome imitation Of rural mas- ter of ceremonies. At his back were the raw-boned men and women and children of the hills, to the number of a dozen.
 Ladies and gentlemen" announced Tamarack Spicer, in hiccoughing voice, sswing yo partners an sashay forward. See the only son of the late Henry South engaged in his mar-ve- lous an heretofore undiscovered occu- patton of doin fancy work Ladies and gentlemen, after this here show is concluded. keep your seats for the con cert in the main tent This here fa- nous performer will favor ye with a little exhibition of plain an fancy sock -darnin'."
 After the first surprise, Samson had turned his back on the group. He was mixing paint at the time and he pro ceeded to experiment with a fieeting cloud effect, which would not outIast the moment. He finished that, and, reaching for the palette-knife, scraped his fingers and wiped them on his trousers legs. Then, he deliberately rose
 Without a word he turned Tama- rack had begun his harangue afresh. The boy tossed back the long lock from his forehead, and then, with an unexpectedly swift movement, crouched and leaped. His right fist shot forward to Tamaraek Spieer's chattering lips, and they abruptly ceased to chatter as the teeth were driven into their flesh. Spicers head snapped back, and he staggered against the onlookers, where he stood rocking on his unsteady legs. His hand swept instinctively to the shirt-concealed
