Cranst0n was also upon his feet the

In an instant, and he would have no

neither would have time to swing or

Dams sudden appearance had been

His eyes moved to the rifle, then to
his belt where hung his hunting knife,

his hardest TO fall into that strange
spirit of nonchalance with which
brave men have SO often met their adj
versaries, and which Dan had now.
I'm surprised to see you here. What

They measured each other with their
eyes. Once more Cranston's gaze stole

kicked II three feet farther into the
shadows of the iean-to. Dan saw the
dark face drawn with passion, the
