CHAPTER TX.

George Sea Otter, summoned by
telephone, came out to Freshwater, the
station nearest the wreck, and trans
ported his battered young master back
to Sequoia. Here Bryce sought the
doctor in the Cardigan Redwood Lum-
Der company's little hospital and had
his wrecked nose recognized and his
cuts bandaged It was characteristic
of his fathers son that when this de
tail had been attended to, he should go
to the Office and work until the six
o'clock whistle blew.
Old Cardigan was waiting for him
at the gate when he reached home.
George Sea Otter had already given
the old man a@more or less garbled ac-
count of the runaway log-train, and
Cardigan eagerly awaited his sons ar
rival in order to ascertain the details
of this new disaster which had come
upon them. For disaster it was, in
truth. The loss of the logs was tri1ing
perhaps three or four thousand dol
lars; the destruction of the rolling
stock was the browning misfortune.
Both Cardigans knew that Pennington
would eagerly seize upon that point to
stint his competitor still further on
logging equipment, that there would
be delays-purposefu but apparently
Observation-Disclosures this lost rolling
stock would be replaced. And in the
interim the Cardigan mill. unable to
get a sufficient supply of logs to I'll

close down.

abouts remained a mystery theu one
day MORA received a letter from him
informing her that he had a job knee
boiling in a shingle mill In Mendocino
county.
In the interim Bryce had not been
idle. From his wood crew he picked
an old, experienced hand-one Jahez
Curtis-to take the place of the van
ished McTavish. Colonel Pennlng-
ton, having repaired in three days the
gap in his railroad, wrote letter to
the Cardigan Redwood Lumber com
pany, informing Bryce that until more
equipment could be purchased and de-
livered to take the place Of the rolling
stock destroyed in the wreck, the lat
fer would have to be content with
half deliveries: whereupon Bryce ir-
rated the Colonel profoundly by pur-
chasing lot OF secondhand trucks
from a bankrupt sucar-pine mill in
Lassen county and delivering them TO
the Coloneps road via the deck OF a
steam schooner.
''That viii insure delivery of sutfi-

Shirley made little gesture of dis

back, thought better of it, and let him
go. When he was out of sight. it
dawned on her that he had risked his
life to save hers.
