outlaw between the eyes. AS he did SO
he heard the breathing on the other
side of him.
Pierre staggered, and in flash Hill
airy had both his hands upon Pierre's
right wrist, kneading the veins and
sinews till the fist opened. The knife
clattered upon the floor. Hilary
stopped and seized it.
That was the precise instant when
the knife that had been dropped by
Louis Duval, welded by Simeon and
thrust upward, found its home be-
meath Hilary's shoulder.
Hilary, who was still bending for
ward, stumbled and pitched upon the
floor and lay there.

MACPHERSON came forward again.
"They thought" he said, "Mademoi-

Lafe saw the girl Stagger as II she
had received blow. She put her
hand upon the buggy wheel and leaned
thus for 81 moment, staring into Mac
Pherson's face. Then, without 4 word,
she stepped in, took up the reins and
began to urge the horse, very slowly,
along the road. The cure came 10 the
side of the vehicle.
II shall come to the Chateau, then,
Mademoiselle Rosny," he said.
emily Lafe, crouching in the bottom OF
the buggy, heard her sobbing again,
low, heartbroken sobS that she cou.d

she took her eyes from the road to look
for moment into Hilary's face, and
once she stopped for q moment.
"How is he?" she asked.
"He is living, Mademoiselle," said
Lafe. And that was all he dared to
say.
There was no lantern, and Madeleine

enough; he blamed himself for Hill
ary's misfortune. He should have
stood by him. And he had meant to do
so. But he had not calculated that
Hilary would walk so fast or go to st.
Boniface so soon.
The trees fell away, disclosing the
Rosny chateau. The buggy stopped be-
fore the door in front of which the
Seigneur and the old retainer were
standing, with anxious faces. Made
leine bent swiftly over Hilary and
raised his limp hand; then she turned
her eyes to Lafe's, mutely asking him
that question which could not be
spoken.
"He is no worse" said Late.

ward them. MACPHERSON telephoned
to the post office and they brought me
the news" he said. you did quite
right, Madeleine. Gently, now, Mon
sieur," he added, addressing Connell,
and together they raised Hilary from
the buggy floor. Remember the steps.
Now, / viii go backward-so."
They were inside the Chateau, carry
ing their burden between the rows of
portraits into room which had been
a drawing room in bygOne days, fur
rished with spindle-legged furniture,
gilt mirrors and ormolu cabinets. A
bed in a corner showed that its use had
been converted, probably because the
upper part of tie Chateau was no
longer habitable.
Madeleine Rosny came in with her
arms full of bed linen, diffusing the
scent of wintergreen. LATE and her
father got Hilary to bed. He was stir
ring now, beginning to toss his arms
and mutter in delirium. The pulse
was stronger, but the flush which had
supplanted the pallor denoted fever.
Presently the cure entered and went
straight to the bedside. The three men
looked at Hilary and at each other.

"He has bled much, but the heart is
uninjured, and unless the lung is
gravely hurt well, we shall see
to it that he gets WE'LL" he ended
abruptly.
There was nothing more Connell
could do. He would have stayed, but
he felt that he must await the issue
in patience. Madeleine was already
established at Hiiary's bedside.

there. in case there was going to be
trouble. I guess there isn't likely to
be, though. Mr.. Askew knows how to
take care of himself"
"Trouble?" questioned the cure
sharply. ''They are going to murder
him."
II heard some yarn like that from
Tremblay," said Late, ''but l guessed
that was all talk"
ut was not talk. 1t is their plan,
said Father Lucien. "Mademoiselle
Rosny heard of it from Monsieur
BrousSeau days ago-it was ON the
day when you went to Ste. Marie. He
rode with her toward Ste. Marie and
told her SO. She did not believe him
This afternoon she learned of it again
from little Baptiste, who asked her to
warn Monsieur Askew. Everybody
knew he would go alone to st. Boni-
face to stop the sale of liquor. Made

had begged her. He would not listen

eve must get there In time to save
him. You will do all you can to save
him, will you not, Mr.. Connell?" asked
the girl, looking earnestly at LATE. As
their eyes met LATE realized suddenly
that her agitation had more than an
impersOnal cause behind il. The swift
knowledge came home to him with a
shock; it cleared up many things,
among them the fogs Of rancor that
had clouded his mind.
"Ill do everything that's in my pow
er, Mademoiselle," he.said. ''1'll stand
by him-rll fight for him if there's any
fighting"
'There will be none" said Father
Lucien. But Mademoiselle ROsny
understands now what Brousseau is.
She knows his character and his evil
mind. And she has learned, fortunate
ly, before it is too late.'
Not another word was spoken. The
buggy descended the hill and rolled to-
ward st. Boniface. AS it crossed the
rickety bridge they heard the sound of
distant shouting in Duval's saloon.
About the front Of it was gathered the
entire male population of st. Boniface,
gesticulating and chattering.
They fell back in dismay as the cure
leaped from the buggy and assisted
Madeleine Rosny down. LATE fol-
lowed. He tried to urge the girl to re-
main in the rig, but she paid no atten-
ton to him. She listened with anxious
intentness as the cure addressed the
crowd, her lips compressed, her bosom
rising and falling quickly. All eyes
were fixed on Father Lucien, but each,
as the priest turned to him, tried to
shrink back behind his neighbor.
They were pointing inside the So
loon. The cure hurried through the
doorway, Madeleine Rosny immediate
ly behind him, and LATE following
them. The saloon, though lit by an Oil
lamp, was empty, as seemed to be the
dark stable beyond it, seen through the
open doorway.
Father Lucien snatched down the
lamp and carried it hastily toward the
stable door. He raised it and looked
in, then turned and tried to bar Made
leine from entering. But she pushed
past him, saw, cried, wrung her hands,
and ran into the middle space between
the rows of stalls. Lafe. following her,

He shook his pipe out angrily.
"Oui," said Tremblay; and the word
conveyed any significance that its
nearer might choose to put upon it.
"Oui," he continued thoughtfully,
though what he was thinking about
was incomprehensible.
"It amt my job" LATE pursued. ''I'm

oyer his left, uncrossed them. and then
crossed his left over his right. Then
he got up.
81 guess I'll take a stroll up the road
and see II the stars are out" he said.
Lafe's stroll was rapid one. As
soon as he had left the porch he al
most ran up the hill road toward the
cliff. AS he painted toward the summit
he heard the rumble Of wheels In the
distance. and presently he saw the
cures rig coming toward him. He
hailed.
"Say, Father Lucy, d'you mind CIV
ing me O lift into st. Boniface?" he
called.
The rig stopped and LATE perceived
Madeleine Rosny seated at the cures
side. Her hands were clasped. her
face agitated and deathly pale. Lafe's
hand went up to his hat awkwardly.
II beg pardon, Father Lucy" he mutt
tered.
"Jump in, Mr.. Lafe," said the cure.
I'm glad that we met. We need you.
We are going to st. BOniface. Jump
In and shall tell you on the way"
Lafe entered the buggy. and Father
Lucien urged on the horse; then he
turned and said:
Louis Duyai has opened saloon

Askew has gone to stop him.
