We could not sit down idly there in
the swamp. And to decide what was
to be attempted was my part. If Kir-
by and whoever was with him had
stolen the missing boat, as undoubt-
edly they had, they could have pos
sessed but one purpose-escape. They
were inspired to the act by a desire
to get away, to flee from the scene
Of their crime. They must believe
that we were left helpless, unable to
pursue them or create alarm. Yet IL

He was slow in following, hanging
back as Happroached closer to the
motionless' form, and I could hear the
muttering Of his lips. PROFESSIONALLY
the man was dead; of this / was as
sured before even knelt beside him.
He lay on his face In litter Of dead
leaves, and almost the first thing /
noticed was the death wound back Of
his ear, where large-caliber bullet
had pierced the brain. His exposed
hands proved him negro, and it was
with a feeling of unusual repugnance
that ] touched his body, turning 1t
over sufficiently to see the face. All
at once I knew him, unable wholly to
repress a cry Of startled surprise as
stared down into the upturned
face-the dead man evidently MUIR
dered, shot treacherously from behind,
was Free Pete. I sprang to my feet,
gazing about blindly into the dim
woods, my mind for the instant dazed
by the Importance of this discovery.
What could 1t mean? How could it
have happened? BY what means had
he reached this spot In advance of us,
and at whose hand had he fallen? He
could have been there only for one
purpose, surely-in an attempt to
guide Eloise Beaucaire and the quad
room Della. Then what had become
OF the women? Where were they
now?
/ stumbled backward to the support
of the log unable to answer any one
of these questions, remembering only
in that moment that must tell Rene
the truth.

"Pete," she echoed, grasping at the
log to keep erect. her eyes on that
dimly revealed figure in the leaves.
"Free Pete, Cartoons Peter How
could he have got here? Then-then
the others must have been with him.
What has become of them?"
'It is all mystery; the only way to
solve it is for us to go on. 1t can do

at this dead body. When we reach

only the side wall, which contained

had been smashed in and hung dam

now with pistol gripped in my hand,
enabled me to obtain glimpse within.
Across the puncheon threshold, his
feet even protruding without, lay a
mans body; beyond him, half con-

appeared the outlines of another, with
face upturned to the roof, plainly dis

The Trail of the Raiders.

Shocked and unnamed as / was at

at those gruesome figures would have
only brought fresh alarm to the two

nerves, advanced over the first body,

had fled. The dead man, with CHASTITY

which had literally crushed in one

so that the features could scarcely be
seen, yet I instantly recognized the
fellow--Carver. Surprised out Of all
control by this unexpected discovery,
I steadied myself against the log wall,
fully aroused to the sinister meaning
Of his presence. To degree the COM

low Carver had been one of the assail-
ants then it was absolutely certain
that Kirby must also have been pres

inevitably meant that both men had
been aboard the steamer, and later
were put ashore at the mouth Of the
Illinois. And, now that / thought
about it, why not? It was no accident,
and I wondered that the possibility
had never occurred to me before. The

suspicion. Even IL this had not oc-

this was true, the small rowboat, with
the oars undisturbed in it's bottom,
had been pressed In beneath the con-
cealment of the log wharf, almost COM
pletely hidden from above, yet to all
appearances uninjured. The very fact
that it should have been thus left only
added to the mystery Of the affair. II
it had been Kirby's deliberate purpose
to leave US there stranded ashore
why had he failed to crush In the

the leaving of the craft in fit condi-

merely as an incident of their hur-

questions, yet the mere knowledge
that the boat was actually there and
In navigable condition promised us an
opportunity to escape. While hope re-
manned, however vague, it was not my
nature to despair. Whether accident
or design had been the cause made no
odds-I was willing TO match my wits
against Kirby and endeavor to win.
And I must deal with facts just as
