CHAPTER XIII.
Tho Break Of Storm.

We had no more pleasant weather
for days, the skies being overcast and
the wind damp and chill. 1t did not
rain, nor were the waves dangerous,
although choppy enough to make pad
ding tiresome and difficult.
A mist obscured the view and COM
PEELED US to cling close to the shore
so as to prevent becoming lost in the
smother, and as we dare not venture
to strike out boldly from point to
point, we lost much time in creep
ing along the curves.
The canoes kept closer together,
never venturing to become separated,
and the men stationed on watch in
the bows continually called to each
other across the tossing waters in
guidance. Even D'Artigny kept with
in sight, and made camp with us at
night, although he made no effort to
seek me, nor did once detect that he
even glanced in my direction. The
studied Indifference of the man puz-
zled me more than it angered but /
believed it was his consciousness of
guilt, rather than any dislike which
caused his avoidance. In a way
rejoiced at his following this course,
as l felt bound by my pledge to Cas-
sion, and had no desire to further
arouse the jealousy of the latter, yet
l remained n woman, and consequent

had no knowledge Of the date, nor
a very clear conception of where we
were. The night before we had camped
at the mouth of small stream, the
surrounding forest growing down close
to the shore, and so thick as to be
almost impenetrable. The men had
set up my tent so close to the water
the waves broke scarcely foot away,
and the fire about which the others
clustered for warmth was but a few
yards distant.
Wrapped in my blankets I saw
D'Artigny emerge from the darkness
and approach Cassion, who drew a
map from his belt pocket and spread
it open on the ground in the glare of
the fire. The two men bent over it.

the morrow. Then D'Artigny made a
few notes on scrap of paper, arose
to his feet and disappeared.
They had scarcely exchanged a
word, and the feeling of enmity be-
tween them was apparent Cassion
sat quiet, the map still open, and
stared after the younger man until he
vanished in the darkness. The look
upon his face was not pleasant one.
Impelled by a sudden impulse
arose to my feet, the blanket still
draped about my shoulders. and
crossed the open space to the fire.
Cassion, hearing the sound Of my APP
proach, glanced around, his frown
changing instantly into smile.
"Ah, quite an adventure this" he
said, adopting tone of pleasantly.
