 He asked about my aunt and uncle and I told him of all that had befallen us, save the one thing of which had spoken only with him and Sally.
 q shall go up to see them soon," he said
 The people of the little village had learned that he preferred to be let alone when he had just returned over
 the long, wearisome way from the scene of his labors. So we had the evening to ourselves.
 Mrs. Wright, being weary after the days work, went to bed early and, at his request, I sat with the senator by the fire for an hour or so. l have al- ways thought it lucky circumstance, for he asked me to tell of my plans and gave me advice and encourage ment which have had marked effect upon my career.
 remember telling him that wished to be lawyer and my reasons for It. He told me that a lawyer was either pest or a servant of justice and that his chief aim should be the promotion .,f neocn nnd good will in his cOmmJn- ty. He promised to try and arrange for my accommodation in his office in the autumn and meanwhile to lend me some books to read while I was at home.
 Before we go to bed let us have a you kindly sit down at the table there @nd make up a statement of all the time you have given me" I made out the statement very neat ly and carefully and put it in his hands.
 "That is we'll done," said he. "1 shall 1 wish you to stay until the day after to- 1 morrow, if you will. So you will please add another day."
 I amended the statement and he paid , me the handsome sum of seven dollars. { l remember that after I went to my room that night I stitched up the open 1 ing in my jacket pocket, which con- 1 tnired my wealth, with the needle and : thread which Aunt Deel had put in my l bundle, and slept with the jacket un- l der my mattress.

 T wouldn't miss 1t for a thousand dollars" he remarked. By Jovel I think we'll have a bully time."
 "I don't object to your going but you must remember that am in com mand." said, little taken back, for had no good opinion either of his prudence or his company.
 '"The judge told me that I could go but that I should be under your or ders," he answered. "Tm not going to be a fool. I'm trying to establish a reputation for good sense myself"
 We got our dinners and set out soon after one o'clock. I had read the deeds of the men we were to visit. They were brothers and lived on ad- joining farms with leases which cov- cred three hundred and fifty acres of land. Their great-grandfather had agreed to pay yearly rent forever of sixty-twO bushels of good, sweet, mer- chantable, winter wheat, eight yearling cattle and four sheep in good flesh and sixteen fat hens, all to be delivered in the city of Albany on the first day of January of each year. So feeling that I was engaged in just cause, brave ly determined to serve the writs if possible.
 I rode In silence, thinking of Sally and of those beautiful days now reced- ing into the past and of my aunt and uncle. I had written a letter to them every week and one or the other had answered it. Between the lines I had detected the note of loneliness. They had told me the small news of the countryside. How narrow and mo- notonous 1t all seemed to me then Rodney Barnes had bought a new farm; John Axtell had been hurt in a runaway; my white mare had got a spavin!

CHAPTER XV.
l Use My Own Compass at Fork In
 the Road

Swiftly now I move across the bor- der into manhood-a serious, eager, restless manhood. It was 'the fashion of the young those days.
 MT. Wright came up for days fish, ing in July. My uncle and I took him up the river.
 While we ate our luncheon he de scribed Jackson and spoke of the fa- nous cheese which he had kept on table in the vestibule of the White House for his callers. He described his. fellow senators-Webster, Clay, Rives, Calhoun and Benton. I remem- Der that Webster was, in his view, the least of them, although at his best the greatest orator. We had a delightful day, and when drove back to the vil- lage with him that night he told me that could go into the office of Wright & Baldwin after harvesting. Tt will do for a start" he said. "A little later I shall try to find better place for you"
 My life went on with little in it I speak of 1t as "the letter." because of its effect upon my career. It was from Sally, and it said:
 Dear Bart: It's all over for 6 Ions time, perhaps forever-that will de- pend on you. I shall be true to yoaI if you really love me, even If have te wait many, many years. Mother and father saw and read your letter. They say we are too young to be thinking about love and that we have got to stop 1t. How can stop 1t? guess would have to stop living. But ws shall have to depend upon our mena- ories now. I hope that yours is as good as mine. Father says DO mora

CHAPTER XVI.
The Man With the scythe.

It was late in June before was able to disengage myself from the work of the judges office. Meanwhile there had been blood shed back in the hills One of the sheriff's posse had been se- verely wounded by bullet and had failed to serve the writs. The judge lad appealed to the governor People were talking of "the rent war"
 What a joy entered my heart when I was aboard the steamboat, at last, and on my way to all most dear to mel As I entered Lake Champlain con- suited the map and decided to leave the boat at Chimney Point to find Kate Fullerton, who had written to the schoolmaster from Canterbury. My aunt had said in letter that old Kate was living there and that a great change had come over her. So went ashore and hired a horse of the ferry man.
 I passed through Middlebury and rode into the grounds of the college. where the senator had been educated. and on out to Weybridge to see where he had lived as a boy. I found the Wright homestead-a comfortable white house at the head of beautiful valley with wooded hills behind it- and rode up to the door. A white haired old lady in a black lace cap was sitting on its porch looking out at the sunllt fields.
 'Is this where Senator Wright lived when he was a boy?" I asked.
 ''Yes, sir" the old lady answered.
 CT am from Canton"
 She rose from her chair.
 "You from Cantonl" she exclaimed. "Why, of all things! That's where my boys home is. I'm glad to see you. Go an put your horse in the barn."
 I dismounted and she came near me.
 "Silas Wright Is my boy" she said. What Is your namep
 Barton Baynes," answered as I hitched my horse.
 Barton Baynesl Why, Silas has told me all about you in his letters. He writes to me every week. Come and sit down."
 We sat down together on the porch.
 "Silas wrote in his last letter that I you were going to leave your place in ' Cobleskiu," she continued to my sur prise. "He said that he was glad you had decided not to stay"
 It was joyful news to me, for the senator's silence had worried me and ! had begun to think with alarm of my future.

 up to the Van Heusen place."
 "Where do ye hail from?"
 "CObleskill."
 "On business for Judge Westbrookr
 "Yes."
 "Writs to server"
 "Yes," I answered with no thought of my imprudence
 ''Say, young man, by hokey nettie I advise you to turn right around and go back"
 "Why?"
 ."'Cause if ye try to serve any writs yell git into trouble"
 "That's interesting" answered. "I am not seeking a quarrel, but l do want to see how the people feel about the payment of their rents."
 "Say mister, look down into that val ley there," the stranger began. "See all them houses-they're the little houses O the poor See how smooth the land Is? Who built them houses? Who cleaned that land? Was it MT. Livingston? By hokey nettie I guess not. The men who live there built the houses an cleaned the land. We ain't got nothin' else-not dollar! It's all gone to the landlord. I am for the men who made every rod O that land an who own not a single rod of it. Years an years ago a king gave 1t to man who never cut one tree or laid one stone on another. The deeds say that we must pay rent O so many bushels O wheat year but the land is nc good for wheat, an ain't been for hundred years. Why, ye see, mis- ter, good many things have happened in three hundred years. The land was willin' to give wheat then an a good many folks was willin' to be slaves. By hokey nettie they had got used to it. Kings an magistrates an slavery didn't look so bad to 'em as they do now. Our brains have changed-that's what's the matter-same as the soil has changed. We want to be free like other folks In this country. America has growed up around us but here we are Twin back in old Holland three hundred years ago. It don't set good. We see lots O people that don't have to be slaves. They own their land an they ain't worked any harder than we have or been any more savin'. That's why I say we can't pay the rents no more an ys mustn't try to make us. By hokey nettie! You'll have trouble

 Don't be In a hurry, young felier." said one of rhe Indians, and then thsrs was another roar of laughter.
 "Go back to yer work now." Curtis shouted. and turning to me added: "You ride along with me and let our feathered friends follow us"
 So we started up the road on our way back to Cobleskill. Our guide len us at the town line some three miles beyond.

 It was dark when I left my com panions in Cobleskill. changed my clothes and had my supper and found Judge Westbrook in his home and re- ported the talk with Curtis and our adventure and my view of the situa- ton back in the hills. observed that he gave the latter a cold welcome.
 'T shall send the sheriff and VI posse" he said with troubled look.
 Pardon me, but think it will make bad matter worse," answered. "We must not forget that the pa- troons are our clients" he remarked. I yielded and went on with my work. : In the next week or so I satisfied my self of the rectitude of my opinions Then came the most critical point In my history-a conflict with Thrift and Fear on one side and Conscience on 1 the other.
 The judge raised my salary. want ed the money, but every day would have to lend my help, directly or indi- rectly, to the prosecution of claims which I could not believe to be just. My heart went out of my work. be- gan to fear myself. For weeks had not the Surage to take issue with the learned judge.
 One evening I went to his home de- termined to put an end to my unhap- piness. After little talk l told him frankly that I thought the patroons should seek friendly settlement with their tenants.
 "Why?" he asked.
 Because their position is unjust, un-American and untenable," was my answer.
 He rose and gave me his hand and a smile of forbearance in considera- ton of my youth, as I took it.
 l left much irrltated ard spent sleepless night in the course of which I decided to cling to the ideals of Da- vid Hoffman and Silas Wright.
 In the morning I resigned my place and asked to be relieved as soon as the convenience of the judge would allow 1t. He tried to keep me with gentle persuasion and higher pay, but I was firm. Then I wrote a long letter to my friend the senator.
