 Just little note for your father,'' he explained, to tell him where we are, in case he worries about you"
 That's very considerate of you" the girl answered in thoughtful voice.
 After the manner of rbackwoods fathers, Jeffrey Nelson had offered no objections to his daughters all-day excursion with Ben.
 When he heard his daughters voice on the canoe landing, one hundred yards below, he was inordinately startled. She had not told him that their picnic would take them on to the water.
 He turned toward the door, in- stinctively alarmed: then hesitated. After all he could not tell her to come back. Beatrice would be mor- tifled: and besides, there was nothing definite to fear. t
 Yet what in reality, did he know of Ben Darby? All at once a baffling apprehension crept like a chill through his frame.
 He could not laugh 1t away. It laid hold of him. refusing to be dis pelled. Once more the man started for the door.
 When he reached the landing the canoe was already near the opposite shore, heading swiftly downstream
 Come back!" Nelson called again. T order you"
 Then his eye fell to the landing on which he discerned the white paper

 BEN DARBY,
 As the truth flashed home, Neil sons first thought was of his rife. One well-aimed bullet over the water, shooting with all his old-time skill, might yet hurl the avenger to. his death in the moment of his triumph. And he cursed himself when his empty hands showed him that he had left his rife in his cabin.
 His pistol, however, was at his belt. and his hand reached for it.. His steady finger pressed back against the trigger.
 The first shot fell far short. He lifted the gun higher and shot again. | Again he shot low But the third | bullet fell just few feet on the near side of the canoe.
 Once more he fired, but the boat I was farther distant now. and the bull let went wild. The pistol was empty. He turned back to his cabin for his rife.
