Gledware murmured gently. That's
why l selected him. l knew we'd want
to talk-I knew you'd name the day."
He helped her down the rafting
boards.
Brick Wilcox rose softly and stole
toward the opening, Ills eyes filed with
a strange light. They no longer glared
with the blood lust Of a wild beast, but
showed gloomy and perplexed; the
words spoken concerning himself had
sunk deep.
The boatman sat with his back to
Gledware and Annabel. He wore u
long dingy coat of light gray and a
huge battered straw hat, whose wide
brim hid his hair and almost eclipsed
his face. Wilcox, careful not to show
himself, stared at the skiff as it shot
out from the landing. his brow
wrinkled in anxious thought. He felt
strange and dizzy. and ut first fancied
it was because of the resolution that
had taken possession of him--the reso-
luton to return to Greer county and
give himself up. This purpose, as UNI

And Gledware, with eyes only for
Annabel. finding nothing beyond her
but a long gray coat, a big straw hat
and two rowing arms, did not suspect
the truth.
