NOVELIZED FROM VITAGRAPH PHOTO PLAY
SYNOPSIS.

John Davis and Hawk Morgan. execu-
tors of the estate of John Carr. miner,
disagree over the disposition of the profits
of the mine. Morgan seeks the gold and
the girl. Ethel, Carr's adopted daughter,
Tor himself, and unsupported by Davis,
whom Ethel really loves, makes several
sensational attempts upon the life of
Davis. Suspicion is diverted to a mysteri-
Gus hermit. Ethel Is lured to a fake
hospital where she Is about to be married

and Rainface appear in the nick of time.
but Morgan escapes without being recog-
nized. Ethel and Davis are then drugged
and cast adrift in boat with internal
machines aboard. They escape.

stampede by the waving blankets, yells
and lots which were all about them.
Aroused by the racket, the members
Of the party who were eating their
lunch came running to the spot just
as Morgan came up. printing.
"Our horses have been stampeded
by a band of Indian horse thieves.
Spider, myself and these two fellows
caught them at it, but they were going
out of sight around that spur just as
we arrived" Hastily the entire party
secured their weapons and started in
pursuit.
A mile down the trail they came
upon John, still pursuing his upward
way, covered with dust, but unhurt.
"Just had q close CALL" he laughed
as they crowded about him. II was
coming along narrow ridge with a
steep drop ON both sides when saw a
bunch OF stampeding horses coming
down upon me. AS | could not jump
off on either side, for a mOTaent /
thought was a goner. Fortunately,
however, found place where l could
get a finger hold On the side of the
way and, swinging myself over, | hung
there until they passed. Then pulled
myself up"
"Thank God!" breathed Ethel, as
she slipped her arm under his own.
Morgan, ordering three of the men
to 60 after the brutes and round them
up, led the party back to camp. John
and Ethel walked side by side, the girl
still cIinging to the returned one as
though afraid that by some magic he
should again be whisked from her
sight. The Hawk shook his fist in the
distance as John finished the recital
Of his adventures.
"It's more of that internal hermits
work. We've got to hunt him and his
gang down and fill them full of lead
if we want any peace"
"Yes. 1t is war to the knife" re-
turned Davis thoughtfully. Awaiting
only the return of the frightened
horses, the expedition continued it's
way, camping for the night at the edge
of a swollen mountain torrent that de-
scended from the snow mountains far
beyond.
A small shack of light logs resting
upon a low foundation stood at the
edge of the turgid stream. AS it was
the only place Of shelter near, while
supper was being prepared Morgan,
Davis and the girl inspected it. 1t was
tiny affair. of about ten feet by eight
consisting of but one room and with
the ridge pole no higher than man
could reach. Beyond window, door
and small platform outside, it pos
sessed nothing but walls, floor and
roof Mean as it was, there was moth
ing better near, therefore John began
insisting that Ethel occupy it during
the night. Quickly she protested
II won't stay in there alone. You
must not leave me. We must watch
over each other, and I will not be left
alone"
"But it would not do for me to stay
inside, also" he responded. The Hawk
came forward with solution of the
problem.
I'VE can drop a blanket across the
middle of it, Davis, and you can bunk
on the other side of the screen to hui
NOR her. And that nobody may say
anything I'll sleep on this porch just
outside of the window and but an
arms length away. And both of you
had better keep out of sight during the
night, for that hermit is certainly max
ing dead set for you" As there
seemed to be no better way out OF 1t

her response. AS he returned from the
corral with his mount the woman met
him at the door, rifle in hand, and
thanking her and promising a quic'S
return of the borrowed articles, he set
out upon his way.
From the winding trail which arose
in successive uprisings from the val
ley into the foothills, the boss and his
| follower looked down to catch sight of
galloping horse and rider far below,
yet not beyond rifle shot. An oath
burst from the lips of Fream.
Hes got loose, but we can pot him
from here" Raising his rifle, he fired,
bnt as the smoke cleared the horseman
was seen still pursuing his way and
apparently unhurt The other scoun-
drel raised his weapon, sighted caro-
fully and pulled the trigger As the
gun roared the man below toppled
from his saddle and fell hcadlong TO
the ground.
"But / got him." he laughed. For q
! moment the pair watched the motion
less form below, then, squirting their
horses, went gallop;ng away.
That Davis was not dead in fact,
with bullet through his head, was
| due to his quick thinking. When the
bullet fired by Fream whizzed close by
his head and spattered upon the wall
| of rock he cast lightning glance IN
| the direction from whence the report
came. The second man was in the act
| Of raising his rife and, watching him
| intently, John rode along in apparent
unconcern as he awaited the pulling
of the trigger. AS the smoke leaped
! from the muzzle OF the distant rifle,
| with q lightning move he threw him.

| the whining bullet by the fraction OF
an inch. Knowing that to make a
move would be to have his body
pumped full of lead he lay in the

L
than he leaped to his feet
The horse, frightened by the shots
and it's riders fall, ran into the hills.
Once more the man pursued his way
on foot.
From the camp where the party had
halted for lunch Morgan and the
| Spider. who had retired a short dis
lance down the trail to talk things
over, saw John approaching them on
| foot far below. The Hawk uttered a
smoking oath.
| IF he hasn't gotten away again
Can you beat it?" The crafty eyes of
the Spider were already scanning the
conditions which surrounded the ap-
preaching one.
/ "See that ridge he is traveling?' he
said as his fingers clutched the others
arm. IF we could only stampede our
horses down it he couldn't get out of
their way There's precipice on each
/ side of him and he would either have
to lump to death or be run over.

explained the plan. Silently the horses
