Never again, so long as we're on

Far off the steamship was pursuing
her way toward Quebec. Hilary,
watching her, was conscious of zest
of living which his conversion Of LATE
did not wholly explain. What, he won

in ST. Boniface?

CHAPTER ".
The First Encounter.

Next morning Hilary drove slowly
through his property. He noticed with
approval splendid growth of white
spruce. 1t was great timber coun-
try; Hilary had already come TO that
conclusion, and to this: that, properly
worked and managed, the st. Boniface
tract had the possibilities of consider
able profits, perpetual ones, IL he cut
wisely and carefully.
After driving at a slow pace for half
g hour he emerged into 4 little
burned. over district, from which he
could see fior good distance on every
siJe of him. He stopped the pony and
looked about him, trying to get his
bearIngs.
The road must run down to the
gorge, where was the main way be-
tween the min and the interior of the
seigniory, Hilary decided.
He drove on again. The track had
been disused that season and was over
grown with creeping raspberry briers,
which made progress difficult Sud-
denly the underground fell away, and
the road ran upward again, hard and
firm, toward a bridge that spanned a
wide creek tributary to Rocky river.
Now Hilary knew where he was. 1t
was the creek which he had passed
that morning when he drove out WITH
Council to inspect the seigniory.
He was about to continue his way
along the mein road to the mill. but an
Impulse urged him TO turn the horse
about and seek the road that led to Le-
blancs old concession. Presently he
heard the sound Of axes among the
trees. He came upon the clearing. to
find the old camp still standing, and a
great pile Of newly hewn timber
stacked up~nnder tire trees.
At Hilary's appearance two or three
men looked up from the logs which
they we're saving and whispered. They
seemed to draw together. at that mo-

~Ah. yes, Monsieur Askew. But,
you see, Mr.. Morris he Fay the men
their wages"
'sCall them here" said Hilary.
Jean-Marie called. and the men came
forward. "Now tell them what have
told you" Hilary continued.
Jean Marie's translation was met
with a volley of interjections. The
little timekeeper began half a dozen
explanations and finally gave up in
despair.
"They say it's Monsieur Brousseau's
orders" he explained you see, mon
sieur, we know now that the property
is yours, but Monsieur Brousseau hires
the mill hands"
'Tell then in future ] shall hire the

They got the rig and drove to the
spot. At the gorge was solid wall OF
logs. packed like the straw coverings
of wine-bottles. The starting Of the
logs had wedged them together here.
II was clear that it would be necessary
to start the mass with dynamite.
