size. II was said by some that the
Red Mask had been a gentleman and

The Pearlhunter could well believe Il,

The heel had been somewhat worn,
so that the nails protruded slightly.
They had left very distinct row OF
prints around the edge OF the mark.
The track was made by the right boot.
He hunted one of the left. No nails
showed. From the circumstances he
concluded that the outer heel-cap Of
the right boot had come off, allowing
the nails to protrude.

He seemed TO feel some intangible,

The scene In the cabin that first
evening crossed his mind, when by
chance he had learned the secret OF
the mans identity; secret shared
by no one else in the Flatwoods; a

That was all. No face appeared. A

of the cabin and muffled into silence.
Very softly the Pearlhunter rose to
his feet. The light outside was far
too bright TO risk venturing forth. 1t
would have betrayed him instantly.
He glanced around the cabin. The
moon had passed by the east window,

stole across the floor and peeped out
through a broken pane.

There was no more sleep for the

went to the cabin door and felt behind
the easement where the hand had
CROPPED. His fingers came In contact
with a tiny bundle wedged between
the logs and the door frame. He drew
II forth and unrolled II in the moon
light, deeming 1t imprudent to light
the candle. Even before the moon
beams fell upon the thing he knew by
q certain disquieting premonition what
1t would prove to be-a red mask.
He felt along the wall to the chink
above the table and poked his fingers
between II and the logs, where he had
concealed the packet the evening they
moved into the cabin. 1t was still
there. He drew 1t forth and compared
1t with the other, They were almost
Identical, and OF a pattern with the
one he had seen that afternoon at the

He sat down by the table and
dropped his chin In his palm. What

of the first-dropped by chance. He
