touching his gun. Get out and stay
out, mister"
With the end of the revolver he
gave the canoe a shove, and Tony saw
the paddle dip into the water and the
boy move away.
Uriah stood a moment and looked
off TO the hills. Then locking Tony
in the cabin he went to where Reggie
lay on the shore and helped him back
to the boat.

he saw through the dusk that the ca
nal boat had left its mornings and was
moving slowly northward in the teeth
of the rising wind. With an ejacula-
lion he showed off and was out in the
boiling surf. Wherever that boat went
he decided to 90, too.
AS he padded carefully along, he
could see the shadows of two men in
the glimmer of the little light in the
small pilot house. Then Reggie was
there with Devon, but where was
Tony?
One small window in the canal boat
gave forth a dim light. He felt within
him that she vas there where that
light was, alone and suffering. What
had she thought of his allowing him
self to be forced away from her when
she needed him most? His teeth came
together sharply. He vas no coward,

desperately. Slowly lifting himself
up he thrust his face close to Tony's.
She was staring at him blankly as if
his ghost had suddenly risen out of
the s~torm-tossed lake.
Don't do that, darling" he whis-
pered as she drew back in terror. I'm
going to take you away"
Then she realized who it was, and
reached out and clutched at him,
breathlessly.
"Climb through undertoned Philip.
"Quick, climb through, and when | tell
YOU to drop. do it. but not before"
BY holding his body rigidly erect, he
managed to keep the canoe upright.
Then he waited, but not for long. Al
most Immediately a girls bare arm
shot through the window. Something
wriggled in her clutching fingers.
Philip almost lost hi, hold on the boat
as Gussie came against his face. He
snatched the pig and dropped it at his
feet. Then a pair of bare legs fol
lowed and Tony's body began to wrig-
gle through the narrow aperture.
Once or twice Philip muttered an
ejaculation as a streak of lightning
crossed the sky only to die and cav
the. water as dark as before. 1t was
taking the girl an interminable time to
squeeze herself through that opening.
Suddenly her shoulders were through.
and she was hanging on by her hands.
Just at that moment the tug ahead
became silent. and Philip heard the
two men walking back along its roof.
They We're coming aboard the canal
boat. and if He crushed the canoe
nearer. lifted one hand and jerked the
hanging figure of the girl away from
the window. She Topped face down
ward into the bottom of the
and Philip left her there limp without
a word. Then he let go his hold of
the canal boat. and a great wave lift
ed his slender craft upon its crest and
they shot away toward the bank.
IT took a shorter time thar it takes
TO tell il for the canoe to reach the
shore. Under the o~verhanging trees
where they were shielded from the
wind, Philip turned and looked back.
A mans face was thrust through the
window which had just yielded up the
quiet little figure at his feet. Then
two forms appeared upon the stern
deck. From the hand of one of the
men hung a lantern. Philip remained
very still. He knew they could not

ness.
For a long time. through which Ton
nibel never moved. Philip waited. The
men on the canal boat seemed filled
with terror. They ran from one end
Of ii to the other. He heard them call
ing 10 and fro. and once in a while an
oath escaped from Devon as he
Screamed his daughters name loudly.
1t was not until he saw one of them
climb upon the tug and heard the sud
den clang of the engine that the boy
took up his paddle and moved slowly
along the shore southwark. and. as he
was going With the wind. Philip made
rapid progress toward the head Of the
lake.
In a little cove he drew the canoe TO
the shore and. springing out. dragged
it its length from the water.
Then he called softly:

The girl stirred and lifted her head.
Yep" she sighed. I'm here,
Come out. said Philip, leaning

Into her terrified eyes came one
strange flashing smile of. welcome.
Her salvation man had saved her, and
as every woman does in cases where
her need is great, she cried out her
thanksgiving in his name, that best
beloved name of Philip. BY this time
the two men were struggling OF the
deck, and as if impelled by some I'M
known force Tony staggered up the
steps.
1t was just as she reached the top
that she saw Captain MacCauley, by
one mighty effort, lift the struggling
figure of the other man and throw him
into the lake. A sharp ejaculation fell
from her lips. Never had she seen
such strength, never had her heart
sung as it did then. She trembled so
that when Philip swung back and
rushed toward her. she sank dow at
his feet. AS falls away an old gar
ment so fell away Philips anger. Ten
DERBY he lifted her up and spoke to
her.
Poor little girl" he whispered. But
he had no time to add anything, nor
had Tony time to answer him.
For there on the Hoghole path look
ing at her. a frown dragging his brows
together, was her father.
Uriah Devon had halted at the sight
of a man being thrown into the water.
Then he came forward, and the girl
loosened herself from the arms that
held her and turned swiftly TO him.
where's mummy" she demanded,
and again came a sharper where's
my mother?" Roughly showing her
aside, Uriah walked across the boat
deck. his sunken eyes fixed on Mac
Cauley.
What you mussin' about my boat
for. mister?' he demanded. And
what happened to trat young Teller
crawlin' TO the beach there?'
II sllnc him in the lake" said
Philip iercely. THE pup was-was-"
he made a gesture toward Tony as
Devon's interruption belched forth:
was it any of your business what
happened to my grip
Uriah took another step toward the
young captain.
That's your canoe, Amt it, roped to
my dock?" he demanded iercely.
well. hop in and get away if you
don't want a broken skull!
Philip sent a flashing glance to the
silent. white girl. There was such ter
ror marked on her face that his teeth
came together t%ensely.
HE cant 30 till my mother comes."
she broke out abruptly. II won't stay
if he don't"
Uriah's hand went back to his hip.
Il guess he'll go if ] tell i'm to- said
he. Just hop into your boat, kid,
before | fill you up to your teeth with
little bits of hot lead"
Tonnibel had witnessed scenes like
this before. She knew but a tiny pres
sure of her fathers finger on the gun
he held would kill her sweetheart.
60 along she managed to get out
between her chattering teeth. It'll be
worse for both of Us if you don't"
Devon was forcing Philip backward
toward the end of the dock, and by
this time Reginald had crawled to the
shore and had lain down upon it.
