strobe on up the bank into the circle
of light made by the campfire. About
the fire lay dozen or more men Of the
hardest of the river type. which was
saying quite enough. for Of all the law
less and desperate characters of the
frontier none have ever surpassed in
reckless audacity and turbulence the
men of the old boat trade of the Ohio
and the Mississippi.
These fellows lay idly looking at
Lewis as he entered the light, not trou-
bling to accost him.
"Who hailed us?" demanded the lat
ter shortly.
"Begorrah, twas me-" said short,
strongly built man, stepping forward
from the other side Of the fire.
Clad in loose shirt and trousers, like
most of his comrades, he showed a
powerful man, shock Of reddish hair
falling over his eyes, bull-like neck
rising above his open shirt In such
fashion that the size Of his shoulder
muscles might easily be seen.
"'Twas me hailed yez. and what Of
it?"
"That is what l came ashore to
learn" said Meriwether Lewis. "We
are about our business. What concern
is that of yours? am here to learn"
"Yez can learn if ye're so anxious"
replied the other. "'Tis me have got
three drinks of Monongahaly in me
that says can whip you or amy man
Of your boat. And if that amt cause
for We to come ashore it's no fighting
man We are. an I'll say that to your
face"
1t was the accepted fashion of chal-
lenge known anywhere along 1000
miles of waterway at that time. in a
country where physical prowess and
readiness to fight were the sole tests
of distinction. Woe to the man who
evaded such an issue once it was Of
fered to him!
The speaker had stepped close to
Lewis, so close that the latter did not
need to advance foot. Instead he
held his ground, and the challenger,
accepting this as a sign of willingness
for battle, rushed at him with the evil
dent intent Of a rough and tumble
grapple after the fashion of his kind.
To his surprise, he was held off by the
leveled forearm Of his opponent. rigid
as bar against his throat.
At this rebuff he roared like bull
and, breaking back, rushed in once
more, his giant arms failing. Lewis

Lewis had sat. his head
dropped in silence.
I'VE are going to start?" Shannon's
face lightened eagerly. "We'll be of
at sunup?"
Before that Get the men. Well
start now. III meet you at the wharf"
Eager enough, Shannon FASTENED
away on his midnight Grand. Within
an hour every man Of the little party
was at the water front, ready for de-
parture. They found their leader walk
ing up and down, his head bent. his
hands behind him.
1t was short work enough, the COM
pletion of such plans as remained I'M
finished. The great keel boat lay CON-
pleted and equipped at the wharf. The
men lost little time in slowing such
casks and bales as remained unship-
ped. Shannon stepped to bis chief.
"All's aboard. SIR" said he. ''Shall
we cast OFF,"
Without word Lewis nodded and
made his way to his place in the boat.
In the darkness, without a shout or a
cheer to mark its passing, the expedi-
ton was launched on its long journey.
Slowly the boat passed along the wa
ter front of Pittsburgh town. Here
rose gauntly in the glare Of torch or
campfire the mast Of some half built
schooner. Households were drawn up
or anchored along shore, long pirogues
lay moored or beached. or now and

shouts. Arrested, pent, damned up,
the ,lusty life of that great waterway
leading into the west and south scarce
took time for sleep. ..
The boat slipped on down, now cross

from some lamp or fire, now blending
with the ghostlike shadows which lay
in the moonless night. 1t passed out
Of the town itself and edged into the
shade of the forest that swept continu-

Hello, there!' called voice through
the darkness after time. "Who goes

The splash of a sweep had attracted
the attention of some one on shore.

quickly that none saw the blow, but
only its result was visible, he shifted
on his feet, leaned into his thrust and
smote the joyous challenger so fell a
stroke in the throat as laid him quiv-

ended all too soon to suit the wishes
of the spectators, used to more pro-
longed and bloodier encounters.
A sort Of gasp, half roar of sur
prise and anger, came from the group
upon the ground. Some Of the party
rose to their feet menacingly. They
