there had already passed on. He could

and ventured to breathe easily once
more. The vague shadows Of the two
men had vanished, but their progress
through the underbrush could be plain

neither made the slightest effort to

on the edge Of the gully, straining his
eyes through the darkness.
A strange fortune had brought him

His whole thought conferred instantly
on the fate Of the girl. What curse

Of the trees, when, suddenly, a voice,
apparently speaking not two yards
distant, gave utterunce to an oath Of
disgust.
Zip the voice said roughly,

any longer; no tellin' where he is at

Shelby dropped fiat on his face al
most ceasing to breathe. The unseen
party addressed stretched himself
lazily, as evidenced by the rustic Of
leaves.

He struck a match, following the
flame in his hands, revealing the
bearded face of a man Of fifty, shad-
owed beneath a soft hat brim. Be
yond him appeared the obscure out

moment the two puffed away content

The other chuckled in his beard,
rustling his feet in the leaves.

as there is things I don't just cotton
to myself. Mostly I pulled the facts
out of that Kid Macklin when he was
drunk, cause he wanted me to help
him. But it seems he's only hired fer
the job; it's that guy we're waitin' for

face. The younger man leaned for

VII.
An Hour Behind.

There was no marked trail, but the
instincts of a plainsman kept Shelby's
course directly to the northwest. The
bronco, now thoroughly tanned, and
,obedient to the slightest pressure OF
the riders leg, kept a tireless gait,
picking out unaided the easiest paths.
From the general direction Of the trail
left by the raiders he had decided
they were heading for a certain por-
ton Of the Bad Lands, and, if this
theory was correct, he ought easily to
cut across their tracks again late In
the afternoon. Sitting upright in the
deep saddle, with the straight back
Of the c~avalryman, his eyes watchful,
his lips grimly set, he rode steadily on
hour after hour, thinking, planning,
beginning now to realize the depth OF
his w interest in this effort at res
cue. He had hardly c~omprehended be-
fore that this girl was really his wife
that her life had become his to
guard. The affair between them had
occurred SO swiftly, so unexpectedly.
he had no before awakened to it's
true meaning. But now it became very
real, and he was positively surprised
to learn the strength of hold h al
ready had upon him.
His mind would linger owe a thou
sand little womanly ,peculiarities
which somehow had unconsciously i'm
pressed him-the soft glow in her
eyes, the usefulness of her smile; the
slight dimple in her chin; the pulsing
of blood in her cheeks; the round firm
ness Of the white neck; the peculiar
gracefulness of her walk; the name
less at~tractiveness of pOise, all came
back now in odd fascination. He was
not aware before that he had even
noticed these things, but now their
memory dominated him, caused his
pulses to quicken. He had known lit
tie of women since boyhood, and never
before had he encountered on terms
Of intimacy this type Of a woman. She
had been a revelation to him even in
his blindness, but now, under the spell
of memory, she had suddenly changed
to an inspiration. His wife, Olga
Carlyn his wife! He said the words
over, as though he recalled a dream,
the sound Of the words causing the
startled buckskin to cast back an evil
eye at his unconscious rider.
Yet it was actually true; impossible
as it seemed, it was nevertheless an
incontrovertible fact. He had never
spoken to her a single word of love;
he shad never even kissed her, and
still, before both God and man, she
was his wife. The strangeness of the
situation bewildered him. Why, he
did not even know who she was;
what right she had to claim the family
name under which he had married
her; what strange story of crime
might shadow her history. 1t was all
mystery. a mystery in which he was
becoming deeply involved. Calkins
had evidently been hiding her from
some fate. hut whether of good, or
evil. could % yet be determined. This
present abduction, beyond question,
had to do with that concealed past.
perhaps with some happening before
she was even horn, These fellows
