Gordon shrugged his shoulders. AN

The little miner knocked at the door.
Wally himself opened. Elliot, from the
shelter of the pine. saw the two men

came to the edge of the porch. He
bling into the air. The siN-gun of the
miner had been pressed hard against
his fat paunch. Under curt orders he
moved down the steps and out of the
yard to the tree.
At sight of Gordon the eyes of
Wally stood out in amazement. Little
sweat beads burst out on his forehead.
for he remembered how busy he had
been collecting evidence against this
man.
''Ww-what do you want?" he asked.
SCOT your keys with you?"
"Y-yes."
"Come with u.s."
Wally breathed more freely. For a
moment he had thought this man had
come to take vengeance on him.
They led him by alleys and back
streets to the office of the Macdonald

out who he was. Gordon crouched
Close to the log wall, Strong behind

The door opened. and a man stood
on the threshold. Elliot was ON top of
him like panther. The man went
