CHAPTER XVIII.
The Last Floht.

1t was early in the morning, and
BIZ Dale had just sent for Ben Little
ford. The hillman hurried to the Of
flee, for he believed he knew what
was In the air. He had already gone
to work at the NINE and his thick
beard, his face and his hands were
black with the dust Of coal.
"Sit down, Ben," said the general
manager Were going to hold A
council of war;
Littleford took chair and crossed
his legs.

YES" answered the younger man.
and forthwith he told the other Of the
news that BY Heck had brought him
few days before; he had not given
The matter really serious considera-
lion until that morning. aNow," he
finished. i want 10 know whether You

Littleford tugged at his bia,aened
beard and frowned.

competent help from the law. What
do you think of it2''
TITS a good plan, I reckon"
growled Ben Littleford, "only 1 don't
cotton very easy to the idee O. us
a-runnin' from the mine to this here
buildin'. / never did like to run from
any man wo'th a durn, Bill"
"But that wouldn't be cowardly,"
Dale protested. sit would be purely
strategic move, and it would save
lives for us. For, when the Balls and
their kinsmen come, you'n have to de-
liver me into their hands or you'll
have to fight like the very devil, that's
sure; and, according to BY Heck's fig
ures, they outnumber you more than
two to one"
"All right" Littleford replied, with
shrug Of his huge shoulders. 'What-
ever you say, that same Wen do"
So BY Heck was sent for, and short
ly afterward he sneaked into the lau-
rels and went off toward the settle
ment of the Balls. In the crook of his
arm he carried his rifle, and inside his
shirt he carried three pieces of dyna-
mite all ready for the match-and he
chose every step with great care for
fear of jarring the explosive too much.
he had not been gone an hour when
Blu Dale heard dull, smothered roar
from somewhere to the northward.
Dale sprang up from his desk, ran to
his ready and waiting horse, mounted
and rode like a streak toward the
lowland.
Dale arrived at John Moreland's big
white farmhouse little before the
middle of the day, and halloed Justify
at the gate. John Moreland and his
ewo sons hurried out in response to
the call. Dale waved aside all greet
ings and inquiries after his health.
and told that which he had come TO
tell. The elder Moreland turned quick
" to his two stalwart sons
Gums and bosses, boysl It'll be
our last fight. and les be at It and
make 1t good fight"
Less than five minutes later the
three erstwhile mountaineers rode out
at the barnyard gate with full belts Of
cartridges around their waists and
with repeating rifles across the pom
mels of their saddles, and Joined
Dale. The four FASTENED to the homes
OF the other Morelands; and not long
afterward the old clan, in fun
strength, rode toward the big, dim
blue hills with Bill Dale acting as its
leader. 1t was to be the clans last
fight, and fight for good cause
and every man Of 1t was eager for
the fray.
Bill Dale bore himself proudly. and
he rode like man born to the sad
die. He found queer joy--a joy
that frightened his steel-grey eyes
and flushed his sunburned cheeks, a
Joy that he didn't even attempt to
Understandable the thought:
For this one day am a clan CHIEF:
l am leading my own people against
a Zoe, In my own country"
And so overwhelmingly did the idea
take hold OF him that he wished. even
