water, with her hands clasped below
her throat, her face was pale. John
Moreland. who had witnessed many
other great fights, himself a fighting
man, had never before beheld such a
contest Of strength and endurance as
this; Bill Dale had won John More

But the blows Of the fighters were

Beside him stood John Moreland. who
held In one hand a bowl containing
hot herb brew that his wife had pre-
pared. Granny Heck, her son BY, and
Mrs. MOreland stood not far away.
This here'll be good TO We, / think"
said Moreiand nodding toward the
bowl In his hand. He went over and
put an arm around Dale's shoulders
and helped him TO sit up.
Dale drank the stuff with difficulty.
Much obliged" he muttercd thickly.
'I-let's see. did ! whip-how did il

News travels rapidly In the big hills.
The Morelands began to gather at the
home Of their chief to see the man
who had whipped Black Adam Ball !:
every Moreland able To walk came to
see Bill Dale. For three hours he was
lionized, but he didn't enjoy It; the
water had left many pains in his
chest, and his head ached duly, and
his hands still felt as though the bones
were shattered in them.
Came a thundershower that after
noon, and the mountain evening fell
with a chill A fire was made in the
wide stone fireplace in the guests
room. and when supper was over the
family gathered there with Dale, who
refused to be kept In bed.
After q few minutes OF silently
watching grotesque shadows fit across
the log walls, Dale said to John More
land:
IF your brother David could know,
don't you think he'd want you to get

John Moreland bent forward to rest
his chin In his hands. His sober grey
eyes stared thoughtfully toward the
fire.

declared Dale. But you shouldn't

For little while Moreland sat there
and looked sQuarely at Dale, who re-
turned his gaze without a sign of
finchlng. The hillman was trying to
find a motive.
How comes IL at you, who amt
knowed rs but two days." he de-
handed, "can be so much interested

The question demanded a straight
forward answer. Dale realized that
there was but one way In which he
could give a satisfactory explanation,
and that that was by telling the truth
but not the whole truth. as he
surmised IT, for then his efforts would
go for naught.
Moreland was speaking again, and
his eyes were brighter now.
