CHAPTER VII.
My Third Peril.

'Mr. Purvis' took his pay IL salts
and stayed with us until my first great
adventure cut him OF. It came one
July day when I was in my sixteenth
year. He behaved badly, and /, as any
normal boy would have done who had
had my schooling in the candle light.
We had kept Grimshaw from our door
by paying interest and the sum Of $50
on the principal. It had been hard
work to live comfortably and carry the
burden OF debt. Again Grlmshaw had
begun to press us. My uncle wanted
to get his paper and learn, If possible,
when the senator was expected in
Canton.
So he gave me permission to ride
with Purvis to the post office-a dis
lance Of three ms!es-to get the mail.
Purvis rode IN our only saddle and I
bareback, on handsome white filly
which my uncle had given me soon

I peered through the bushes. The
light was unchanged. could see
quite clearly. The horses were gone.
It was very still. The stranger lay
helpless in the road and a figure was
bending over him. It was man with
a handkerchief hanging over his face
with holes cut opposite his eyes. He
had not seen my fall and thought, as
I learned later, that I had ridden away.
His gun lay beside him, its stock
toward me. I observed that piece
Of wood had been split off the lower
side of the stock. jumped to my feet

the size of hens egg. I saw it Craze

touch the place which the stone had
grazed. He reeled and nearly fell and

little stone had put the mark Of Cain
upon him.

after she was foaled. I had fed and
petted and broken and groomed her
and she had grown SO fond of me that
my whlstled call would bring her gal
loping from the remotest reaches of
the pasture. I had named her Sally
because that was the only name which
seemed to express my fondness.
"Mr. Purvis" was not an experienced
rider. My FLY led him at a swift gal
lop over the hills, and heard many
a muttered complaint behind me, but
she liked a free head when we took
the road together, and let her have
her way.
Coming back we fell in with another
rider who had been resting at Sewers
little tavern through the heat of the
day. He was a traveller on his way
to Canton and had missed the right
trail and wandered far afield. He had
a big military saddle with bags and
shiny brass trimmings and pistol in
a holster, all Of which appealed to my
eye and interest. The FLY was little
tired and the stranger and were rid
ing abreast at a walk while Purvis
trailed behind, us.
We heard a quick stir In the bushes
by the roadside.
"What's that7' Purvis demanded in
a half-whisper of excitement. We
stopped.
Then promptly a voice-a voice
which I did not recognize-broke the
silence with these menacing words,
sharply spoken:
"Your money or your lifel"
'Mr. Purvis' whlrled his horse and
slashed him up the hill. CHANGING
backward, I saw him lose stirrup and
fall and pick himself up and run as
IL his life depended on it. saw the
stranger draw his pistol. A gun went
off in the edge Of the bushes close BY.
The flash of fire from its muzzle
leaped at the stranger. The horses
reared and plunged and mine threw
me in a clump Of small peoples by the
roadside and dashed down the hill.
Ny fall on the stony siding had
stunned me and lay for three or -four
seconds, as nearly as can estimate it
in strange and peaceful dream. Why
did I dream Of Amos Grimshaw com
