He didn't walt for a reply, but
turned away with BY Heck. He went
TO the home OF the Hecks ostenslbly
20 have his fortune told-really, TO
get his dinner The old woman didn't
like him. but her Unborn spirit of hos
pitality wouldn't permit her to refuse
him a meal. She felt that she was
almost even with him when. after
shutting and reading the cards, she
told him that It would be wise for
him to look out for big, tall grey
eyed young man with an oak tree In
one hand and couple of cliffs In the
other.
Dale told Major Bradley and John
Moreland OF that which Goff had said
TO him at the gate. The major sug-
gested forthwith that he go to meet
the man; 1t couldn't possibly do any
harm, and there was a chance that he
would learn something Of Goff's In
tentions.
So Dale went.
J Con was already there, waiting. lie

When he saw Dale approaching, he

They reached John Moreland's cabin
less than an hour later. Moreland
and his son had just returned from
Gainesville, and Dale learned through
Hayes that the two hillmen had shown
good judgment and some business
sense In making their purchases.
When the evening meal was over
Dale drew John Moreland out to the
cabin yard, where the many old-fash-
Toned flowers made the night air sweet
with their blended odors. For q mo-
ment Dale stood looking toward the
very bright stars and thinking; then
