Back in the deserted furnished

him.

he laughed, running water, too. Look
here. Everything but food-every-

have had a long sleep-and pleasant

He drew down the shades and

open air.
A horseman, speeding down the
straight road, heard the boom. He saw
the explosion. He spurred his horse.
He reached the wayside lane.
Joe Welcher, his head cut and
bleeding, was the first to revive. His
remorseful frenzy still lent him
strength and energy. He sprang to
his feet-looked for Annette. He no.
ticed nothing else-save that the room
was wrecked.
He found Annette, picked her up
and carried her without. She was
stunned, but practically unhurt. But
Joe didn't know all this. He had
