They started on. I excused myself
and took trail through the woods to
another road. sJust there, with Sally
waving her hand to me as stood for
a moment in the edge of the woods,
the curtain falls on this highly roman
tic period of my life.
Uncle Peabody came for me that eve
ming. It was about the middle of the
next week that I received this letter
from Sally: 4
'Dear Bart: Mr.. Latour gave up
and drove to Potsdam in the evening.
Said he had to meet Mr.. Parish. I
think that he had seen enough of me.

How often read those words-so

changed. People came running toward
US. lifted the head of Mr.. Grimshaw
and laid 1t on my knee. It felt like the
head of the stranger in Rattleroad.
Old Kate bent over and looked at the
eyelids of the man which fluttered
family and were still.
"Dead!" she muttered.
Then, as if her work were finished,
she turned and made her way through
the crowd and walked slowly down
the street. Men stood aside to let her
pass, as If they felt the power Of her
spirit and feared the touch of her gar
ments.
Two or three men had srun to the
house of the nearest doctor. The crowd
thickened. AS sat looking down at
the dead face in my lap, lawyer who
had come out of the courtroom pressed
near me and bent over and looked at
the set eyes of Benjamin Grimshaw
and said:
"She floOred him at last. knew she
would. He tried not to see her, but
tell ye that bony old finger of hers
burnt hole in him. He couldn't stand
it. I knew he'd blow up some day un.
der the strain. She got him at last"
"Who got him?" another asked.
"Rovin' Kate. She killed him point
ing her finger at him-so."
"She's got an evil eye. Everybody's
afraid o. the crazy OIL trollope."
Nonsense! She isn't half as crazy
as the most of u.s." said the lawyer.
I'm my opinion she had a good reason
for pointing her finger at that man.
She came from the same town he did
over In Vermont. Ye don't know what
happened there"
The doctor arrived. The crowd
made way for him. He knelt beside
the still figure and made the tests. He
rose and shook his head, saying:
TITS all over. Let one O. these boys

in the township, was dead, and l have

cred into its grave. The little. broken
spirited wife stood there with the
same sad smile on her face that had
noted when first saw her In the hills.
ROvin' Kate was there In the clothes
she had worn Christmas day. She was
greatly changed. Her hair was neatly
combed. The wild look had left her
eyes. She was like one whose back Is
relieved Of heavy burden. Her lips
moved as she scattered little red
squares of paper into the grave. sup

hershey who saw her do 1t. I
thought that understood the curious
bit Of symbolism and SO did the school

Racket whispered as we walked away
together.

other of these heartless creditors
each q grasping usurer with unjust
claims.
I remember that Rodney Barnes
called for my chest and me that fine
morning in early June when was to
go back to the hills, my years work in
school being ended. I elected to walk,
and the schoolmaster went with me
five miles or more across the flats to
the slope of the high country.
"Soon the senator will be coming"
he remarked. Il have long letter
from him and he asks about you and
your aunt and uncle. I think that he's
fond O. you, boy"
Il wish you would let me know when
he comes" I said.
II am sure he will let you know,
and, by the way. l have heard from
another friend o. yours, my lad. Ye're
a lucky one to have so many friends
sure ye are. Here, I'll show We the
letter. There's no reason why
shouldn't. Ye will know its writer,
probably. do not"
So saying he handed me this letter:
Canterbury, VT.
"June I.
Dear Sir.-I am interested in the
boy Barton Baynes. Good words about
him have been flying around like
pigeons. When school is out I would

is my business and yours. Thanking
you for reading this, I am, as ever.

"Why. this is the writing Of the ST.

the letter half through.
"Rovin' Kate?"
Rowing Kate; never knew her 9TH

long ago."
"But look-this Is a neatly written.

white and clean as the new snow. In

the power O. God in her right hand.
So do oil the wronged."

CHAPTER KIN.
The Bolt Ealla

Three times that winter I had seen
Benjamin Grimshaw followed by the
Silent Woman clothed in rags and
pointing with her finger.
The trial of Amos came on. He had
had ''blood on his feet" as they used
to say, all the way from Lickitysplit
to Lewis county in his flight, having
attacked and slightly wounded two
men witlfa bowie knife who had tried
to detain him at Rainy Lake. He had
also shot at an officer In the vicinity
Of Lowville, where his arrest was ef-
fected. He had been identified by all
these men. and so his character d. q
desperate man had been established.
This In connection with the scar on his
face and, the tracks, which the boots
Of Amos fitted, and the broken gun
stock convinced the jury Of his guilt.
I remember well the look Of the
venerable Judge Cady as he pro-
bounced the sentence Of death upon
Amos Grimshaw. A ray of sunlight
slanting through window in the late
afternoon fell upon his gracious coun-
tenance, shining also, with the softer
light Of his spirit. Slowly, solemnly,
kindly, he spoke the words Of doom.
1t was his way Of saying them that
first made me feel the dignity and
majesty of the law. The kind and ia
therly tone of his voice put me in
mind Of that supremest court which
is above all question and which was
swiftly to enter judgment In this mat
ter and in others related to it.
Slowly the crowd moved out Of the
courtroom. Benjamin Grimshaw rose
and calmly whispered to his lawyer.
He had not spoken to his son or
seemed to notice him since the trial
had begun, nor did he now. Many had
shed tears that day, but not he. Mr..
Grimshaw never showed but one emo
tion-that of anger. He was angry
now. His face was hard and stern. He
muttered as he walked out of the
courtroom, his cane briskly beating the
floor.
The Silent Woman-as ragged as
ever-was waiting on the steps. Out
went her bony finger as he came down.
He turned and struck at her with his
cane and shouted in a shrill voice that
rang out like trumpet in his frenzy:
"Go way from me. Take her away,
somebody. can't stan it. She's KILN
