CHAPTER XIV.
A Letter end 4 PROPOSAL.

y LetLer n a
The Moreland Coal company's two
big rough buildings were completed
In record time. There had been no
further manifestations of interference
from the Balls and Torreys, and Hen
derson Golf had been nowhere in evil
dence since the night of Bill Dale's
ironclad verbal ultimatum. Work on
the little railroad was progressing like
wildfre. and everybody was In high
spirits.
By Heck had just arrived with the
mail. He stalked with an air of great
Importance into Dale's Office, and
threw the mall down on the new roll
top desk; then he stepped backward,
dropped into a straight-back chair and
began to nurse his rifle tenderly on
his knees. There was a puzzled look
on his leathery face. Dale had re-
ceiyed half a dozen letters, and By
Heck was at a loss to figure out the
why Of such an overwhelming amount
OF mail.
Dale finished his figuring, leaned
back In his swivel chair and took up
a letter that seemed altogether too
bulky for q business letter. More
over. Its address raj In pencil, and
somewhat scrswled, though a chirog-
raphy expert would have said that
the handwriting showed strength of
character.

81 very melodramatc. And yet, It
was SO grimly real. and his hopes
seemed SO thin.
The Morelands and the Littlefords
would eventually learn the truth and
1sake the Balls and Torreys pay a
dear price, no doubt, but that-that
wouldn't give him back his lifel
The men were divided into two
watches. The Rrst was to remain
awake and on guard until midnight,
and the other was to go on duty from
midnight until dawn. The second
watch, with which was the factions
leader, had a nightcap Of the vitrioiic
whisky, flung itself sprawling on the
ground and s~traightway went to sleep.
The first watch sat around the
cracking brushwood fire and played
cards for chews of tobacco, cartridges
and pocket knives, sang strange and
outlandish songs and drank more
whisky. One very drunk Torrey gam
bled away all bis tobacco, all his cart
ridges, his knife, his rife and his belt,
his coat and his hat, his boots and his
shirt-and offered to bet his trousers

before he could be taken into the
house. His Mortified wife heard the
shooting and rushed out TO find her
husbands body dressed in full uniform
lying in pool OF blood. with the
sword which he had drawn TO meet
his assailants by his side.
