seemingly be directed eastward up the
valley. This would give US the pro-
lection of the bluffs, and take us more
and more out of the territory they
would be likely to cover. Within
twenty minutes we were in saddle, de-
scending the steep hillside through the
darkness, Tim walking ahead with the
lad, his horse trailing behind, and the
long rifle across his shoulder.

and could no longer uphold my weight.

painfully behind me, l pressed on be-

attempt at speech.

Of the bluff, it's red rays seeming to
bridge with spans of gossamer the lit
tie valley up which we tOiled. l had
lost my interest, and was walking dog
gedly on, with eyes bent upon the
ground, when the girl beside me cried
out suddenly, new excitement in her
voice.
"Oh, there is a cabin! See! Over
yonder; just beyond that big oak,
where the bluff turns"
Her eager face was aglOw, her out
stretched hand pointing eagerly.
The logs of which the little building
had been constructed still in their ma
tive bark, blended so perfectly with
tNe drab hillside beyond, that for the
moment none of us caught the distant
outlines. Tim possessed the keenest
sight, and his voice was first to speak.

We must have been half an hour in

well up above the stream, within the
shade of the great oak, and we were
confirmed, long before we reached it,
in our former judgment that it was
uninhabited. No sign of life was visi-
BILE about the place; it had the APP
pearance of desertiOn, no smoke even
curling from out the chimney. A faint
trail, evidently little used led down
toward the creek, and we followed this
as it wound around the base of the
big tree. Then it was that the truth
dawned suddenly upon uS-there to
our right lay a dead mule, harnessed
for work, but with throat cut; while
