CHAPTER III.
Hilary Talks Business.

Hilary was smoking on the porch
the next morning, formulating his
plans. when ne heard the bell on the
side Of the telephone box begin to
ring dangerously. Then, Monsieur
Tremblay came out and made it clear
to Hilary that he was wanted.
II was Lafe Conncll calling.
"Say, Mr.. Askew," he said. sim
'phoning you from my boarding place.
They came back yesterday afternoon;
the boat was late; maybe you didn't
know. They've been cross-questioning
me and Baptiste all the morning.
Brousseau's just left, and Morris has
ordered the storekeeper's rig to drive
over to you in an hours time"
Thanks, Conneii," said Hilary. I'm
much obliged. I'm coming over"
He reached the Office just In time
to see Morris emerge toward buggy
which was drawn up before the door.
Morris looked plainly disconnected to
see him.
He was an older man than Hilary
had expected to meet. He seemed well
on the shady side of fifty. He had
elusive gray eyes, prominent but
ill-defined nose, and heavy, thready
mustache. It was type. Hilary knew
intimately: The crooked business go
between.
'Mr. Morris, / think" he said, de-
scending and tielng the pony to the
hitcfing post in front or the building.
Morris held out his hand, which Hill
airy took, with no great cordlality. 81
came back last night and heard you
were here, Mr.. Askew," he said. *
was Just coming over to see you"
81 heard you were here" said Hill
airy. II came to see you and talk
things over"
Morris, recognizing the situation, &C
cepted it and turning back, pulled the
key out of his pocket and opened the
Office door. Hilary sat down at the
desk nearest the window, from which
he could see the endless line of logs
ascending the cogged chain that drew
them into the mih fiune.
Morris took a box Of cigars from his
desk drawer and offered it to Hilary,
who declined. Morris chose one and,
biting OFF the end, lit 1t. Hilary could
see that his hand trembled little.
"Well, sir" he said, seating himself,
"thfs is the last place In the world
where / should have expected to see
you. / have just heard from Mr..
Lamartine that You intended to pay
visit to Quebec, but that letter was
written some days ago. You didn't
see him7'
Two days before Hillary would have
jumped at the bait, would have shown
his resentment OF the lie, declared hos
tllity, and given Morris bis cue. Now
he only smiled pleasantly.
"Yes, j saw him." he answered. "He
tried to dissuade me from coming up
here, but / wanted to see the proper
ty."
IF you had let me know" said Nor
ris, 81 could have made arrangements.

"He says he's got to have Mr.. Nor
ris' ORDERS" said Baptiste.
LATE turned to Hilary. who took up
the conversation. ASK him if he
doesn't understand what I am here
for" he suggested.
Dupont was impregnahle In his po-
sition. He had lumber from both con-
eessions, and Mr.. Morris was In charge
of both. What orders had been left
with reference to his freight?
LATE was pleased an6. surprised at
the way Hilary took it But Hilary
had learned good deal during that
morning.
"That sounds reasonable" he said.
"Give him Mr.. Morris orders, Cornell,
whatever they are" And, when the
matter had been settled, he added
you were dead right, connell. We've
got to settle with the big fellows first.
He dropped Lafe at the mill and
drove slowly homeward across the
bridge, thinking hard. There would
probably be no trouble with Leblanc
after he had shown that he was mas
ter And LATE would be pillar of
strength Hilary had instructive faith
in the slow-speaklng Yankee.
Il must get little Baptiste on our
side, too" he said aloud. as the buggy
topped the hill beyond the bridge; and
then he became aware of Madeleine
Rosny upon her horse, at the end of
the branch road, waiting for him to
pass.
Hilary felt uncertain and awkward.
Ought he to raise his hat to her? A
glance at her face showed him that
she was perfectly aware who he was.
1t showed him a firm chin, resolutely
set, two angry blue eyes, and flushed
cheeks whose redness did not come
from hard riding.
He decided to bow. But before he
did so the buggy had passed, leaving
path; and Mademolselle Madeleine,
her face ayerred. started her horse
down the hill. Hilary jerked the reins
angrily, and the pony set off at gal
lop for Monsieur Tremblay's stables.
But before the final descent was
reached Hillary was laughing. Some
how the girls hostility seemed to add
zest to the game.
Il don't know that I'll be so very
diplomatic with Brousseau after all,
said Hilary, as he drew rein at the
stable entrance.

"There must be a map" said Hilary
quietly.

rough plan OF the leases among those
papers" He moved TOWARD the door,
laid his hand on the handle, cleared
his throat and looked back.
Il have only to say that my yearly
contract expires on October first" he
said. IF you wish to renew it
shall expect adequate notice."
Hilary looked up from the books.
"You may regard 1t as terminating on
October first, them" he answered. aIf
l wish to renew 1t / shall let you
know when have looked into these"
This time Morris anger was quite
unfeigned. You can accept my resig-
nation now he shouted. 'sDo You

getting busy and putting out the fire?'
MIR. LATE, there is many thing you
do not understand" said the cure, pat
ting the Yankee on the shoulder be-
nevolently. "Mr Lafe is fine fellow
he added to Hilary. shut he want to go
too quick all the time"
It was evident to Hilary that the
two We're fast friends. Father Lucien
clucked to his pony. took off his hat
with flourish. and resumed his jour
ney.
Father Lucy's a good sort" NUT
tered LATE. shut he makes me tired
sometimes. Slow as the devil, Mr..
Askew. And yet, now come to think
of it, he does get results in his own
time. He aiD't equal to cleaning up
Ste. Marie, though"
After a pause he added: "Some-
times I've thought that Father Lucy
he'd something up his sleeve about Ste.
Marie after ALL"
An hours drive brought them within
sight of the village. Ste. Marie was
almost replica of st. Boniface ex-
ternaIly. with the same shacks, clus-
tered about the brick Offices of the
company.
''Not much to see now" said LATE.
But on pay night it's fierce, Mr.. As
kew. guess this place is a real hell"
"Rowdy, Cornell, you mean?"
Il didn't mean that, Mr.. Askew. It's
that, God knows; but what meant by
hell was place where everybody's
law to himself with nothing to re-
strain him. A place where everybody
does what he wants to do. That's my
idea OF hell, sir.''
The road wound along the shore.
Presently st. Boniface came into
sight. 81 think I'll go into the Office,
Connell," said Hilary.
Il guess you'll have to break it
open, then" said LATE. "Mr. Morris
took the keys with him."
"When's he coming backT'
"We We're expecting him on the boat
this afternoon"
Hilary considered for a moment. 'Fll
wait till tomorrow them" he said.
"Hello, Monsieur Baptistel'
The little scaler and timekeeper was
hurrying toward the buggy. ''Mon-
sieuri' he gasped. Monsieur Askew,
yesterday / did not know who you
were. Excuser'
That's all right, Baptiste," an
swered Hilary. "Just remember that
I'm running things here now, that's
all. And, by the way, that order about
trespassers and visitors is at an end
There's going to be nothing done here
that Wen be afraid of people finding
out. Got it?n
Jean-Marie Baptiste evidently had
got it, for he looked almost terrified
He touched his hat and withdrew with
a sort of shutting bow
you certainly do have the knack OF
putting things across, Mr.. Askew," said
LATE admiringly. 81 guess you're ready
to go back to the hotel. Wait. There's
old Dupont, the captain of the lumber
schooner. / guess you'll want to meet
him?e
Il suppose so" said Hilary.
Dupont came toward the rig, &C
companied by the timekeeper The
captain was a tall old man of about
sixty years, with gray beard, a
weather-beaten face, and pale gray
eyes that seemed to burn with some

consuming fire. His look, as he turned
it on Hilary, was so searching, and so
inscrutable, and so momentarily hos
tile, that Hillary felt uncomfortable.
There was a history behind that pene-
trating stare-a history ant a hate.
But after a moments examination
81 Hilary's face a film seemed to come
over the old mans eyes. Whatever
the reason for his strange gaze, Du-
pont was satisfied. He stood by LATE,
and Jean-Baptlste translated.
THE captain says the schooner's
fun" he sad she want to starr for
Quebec on tonight's tide"
TELL him to speak to Mr. Askew
here" answered Lafe. "Say that Mr..
Askew's In charge"
The timekeeper translated back into
the French. A smile fickered upon
Dnponfs face. He shook his head and
answered.
