you will"
It was in Cassion's heart to strike.
1 read the desire in his eyes, in the
swift clutch at his sword hilt; but the
sarcastic smile on De Tonty's thin lips
robbed him Of courage.
"'Tis best you curb your tongue"

"'Twill be best that you make no at

"You do me honor" I turned to De

did not glance toward Cassion, but
felt no doubt as to the look on his face:
yet he would think twice before laying
hand on this stern soldier who had
offered me protection. The guard at
the door fell aside promptly. and per-
mitted us to pass. Some order was
spoken in low tone, and they fell be-

CHAPTER Xxx.
The Court-Martial.


De Tonty took the paper from my
hand, glanced at it, then lifted his eyes
inquiringly to mine.

last night, under the berth yonder
Later he came and carried the bag
away, never suspecting it had been
opened. His commission was there
also. Read it, monsieur"
He did so slowly, carefully, seeming
to weigh every word, his eyes darken-

thy cheeks.

Cured back in New France to cause
the murder of Chevet and this attempt
to convict D'Artigny Of the crime?
"Sit here, monsieur" | said, my
voice trembling, "and I will tell you
the whole story. 1 must tell you, for
there is no one else in Fort st. Louis
whom l can trust"
I told the tale simply, concealing
nothing, not even my growing love for
D'Artigny. The man listening inspired
my utmost confidence sought his re-
spect and faith. As I came to the end
for moment he remained motionless
and silent, his eyes grave with thought.
"'Tis a strange, sad case" he said
finally, "and the end is hard to deter
mine. 1 believe you, madame, and
honor your choice. The case is strong
against D'Artigny; even your tesd-
mony is not for his defense. Does M.
hCassion know you saw the young man
that night"
HE has dropped remark or two
which show suspicion. Possibly some
one Of the men saw me outside the
Mission house, and made report
"Then he will call you as wit

necessary to convict. He will give his
evidence. and call the Indian, and per
chance Q soldier or two. who VIII
