The old enmity was for the time being
forgotten. Members OF one clan
rubbed elbows with members OF the
other clan, and thought nothing OF It.
John Moreland himself carried one
end Of the crude litter that held the
limp form Of Babe Littleford; Bill
Dale carried the other end.
Close behind the litter walked BABES
father, seeming old and broken WIN
ramorse for the thing he had DONE
The grief Of Ben Littleford was touch.

that he had spoken so bitterly to him.
they reached the Halfway switch
fen minutes before the arrival OF fne

was on the long siding, waiting for tne
south bound to pass. Dale gave ms
end Of the litter to Caleb Moreland'
and strobe up to the locomotive. Inc
engineer sat quietly smoking In MS
cab. od
Dale wanted the fast mail stopped
and gave his reasons.
The engineer smoked anu consul

swore at rules. The engineer sald ne

take no chanst with him. Shoot him
like dawg eff he tries to trick ye!"
A dozen men ran to look for the
would-be sniper. The Littlefords, still
armed, came dashing across the river.
Ben LittlefOrd threw down his rifle
and knelt beside his daughter; he
wrung his big hands and cursed the
day that had seen him born.
Dale held her close. His face was
as white as hers, and his eyes were
flaming.
why don't you shoot all your wom-
enfOlkY' he said to the LittlefOrd
chief, and every word cut like knife.
TITS by far the simplest way; It's mer-
ciful, yknow. See, she isn't breaking
her heart over your murderous fight
ing now. No, keep your hands away
you're not fit to touch her!"
They brought water and wet the
young wOmans faca.. and bathed the
red streak across her temples. They
did all they knew how to do to bring
her back to consciousness, but, except
for her beating pulse and her breath.
ing, she remained as one dead. Hours
passed, leaden hours, and her condl'
ton was unchanged.
Dale beckOned to John MOreland
who had just returned from having
seen Adam Ball caught, disarmed, anf
imprisoned in an old tobacco barn
Moreland fastened to Dale, the new
master.
/ "When does the next sOuth-bOunt
train pass the Halfway switch?' Dali
wanted to know.
II MOreland looked toward the sun.
II "We could make it, ,all right, but it

"Then we'll hold it up," declared tn
