Newark leader. ([Newark, Ohio]) 1917-1946, 1922-11-03

Ii he did so, whether he could escape
with the girl before he was shot down
But his hand, wandering over the
lock, encountered the key.
1t was easy, after all. He turned the
key. The door opened beneath his
hand.
If there had been single ray of
light under the door or through the
keyhole, his course would have been
quite different. He would have opened
the door suddenly in that case, hoping
to take by surprise whosoever of the
clan were guarding Linda. To open a
door slowly into room full of enc
mics is only to give them plenty of
time to cock their rifles But in this
case the room was in darkness, and all
that he need fear was making a sud-
den sound. The opening slowly
widened. Then he slipped through and
stood ten breathless seconds in silence.
Linda" he whispered. He waited
long time for an answer. Then he
stole farther into the room.
Linda" he said again. ITS Bruce.
Are you hereW
And in that unfathomable silence he
heard a sOund-a sound so dim and
small that it only reached the frontier
of hearing. 1t was a strange, whisper
ing, eerie sound, and it filled the room
like the faintest, almost imperceptible
gust of wind But there was no doubt
ing it's reality. A living creature oc-
cupied this place of darkness with him,
and was either half-gagged by hand
kerchief over the face or was trying
to conceal it's presence by muffling it's
breathing Linda" he said again.
There was a strange response to the
calling of that name He heard no
whispered answer. Instead, the door
he had just passed through shut softly
behind him.
For a fieeting instant he hoped that
the wind had blown it shut. For it is
always the way of youth to hope-as
long as any hope is left. His heart
leaped and he whirled to face it. Then
he heard the unmiStakable sound of a
bolt being slid into place.
Some little space of time followed
in silence. He struggled with growing
horror, and time seemed limitless.
Then strong man laughed grimly in
the darkness.

rattlesnakes such as sometimes hold
their cOmmunions Of hatred on the
sun-blasted cliffs.
All at once Simon laughed-a sharp,
hoarse sound that had, in its over
tones, note of madness. Every man
in the room started. They seemed to
have forgotten Bruce. They looked at
their leader with a curious expectancy.
They seemed to know that that wild
laugh betokened but one thing-the
impact of some terrible sort of inspi-
ration.
AS they watched, they saw the idea
take hold of him. The huge face dark
ened His eyes seemed to smolder as
he studied his huge hands. "We've
decided to be merciful, after ALL" he
said slowly. But neither Bruce nor the
clansmen misunderstood him or were
deceived. They only knew that these
words were simply part of deadly
jest that in moment all would un-
derstand. Instead Of filling you full
of thirty-thirty bullets, as better men
than you have been filed and what we
ought to do-we're just going to let
you lay out all night-in the pasture
with your feet tied and your hands
behind your back"
No one relaxed. They listened, star
ing, for what would follow.
"You may get bit cold before
morning." Simon went on, 'but you're
warmly dressed, and little frost
won't hurt you. And I've got the place
all picked out for you. And we're even
going to move something that's laying
there so it will be more pleasant"
Again he paused. Bruce looked up.
"The thing that's lying there Is
dead yearling calf, half ate up. It
was killed last night by the Killer
the old grizzly that maybe you've
heard of before. Some of the boys
were going to wait In trees tonight by
the carcass and shoot the Killer when
he comes back after another meal
something that likely won't happen un-
til about midnight If he runs true to
form. But 1t won't be necessary now.
We're going to haul the carcass away
down wind where he won't smell 1t.
And we're going to leave you there in
its place to explain to him what be-
came of it,"
Bruce felt their glowing eyes upon
him. ExultatiOn was creeping over the
clan; once more their leader had done
himself proud 1t was such sugges-
lions as this that kept them in awe OF
him.

In ner whereabouts than In this talk
with YOU"
"The last seen of her, she was going
up hill with Dave. When Dave re-
turns you can ask him."
The bearded man opposite from
Simon uttered a short syllable Of a
laugh. "And it don't look like he's go
'ng to return" he said. The knowing
look on his face was deeply abhorrent
to Bruce. Curiously, Simon's face
flushed, and he whirled in his chair.
"Do you mean anything in particu-
lar, Old Bill?" he demanded
"It looks to me like maybe Dawes
forgot lot of things you told him,
and he and Linda are havin' little
sparkin' time together out in the
brush"
The idea seemed to please the clan.
But Simon's eyes glowed, and Bruce
himself felt the beginnings Of blind
rage that might, unless he held hard
upon it, hurl him against their re-
mOrseless weapons. II don't want any
more such talk out of you, Old Bill" !"
Simon reproved him, "and we've talked
enough, anyway" His keen eyes stud
led Bruce's flushed face. Zone OF you
give our guest chair and fix him up
in it with a thong. We don't want
him flying off the coop and getting
shot until we're done talking to him."
One of the clansmen pushed chair
forward with sudden force, striking
Bruce in the knees and almost knock
ing him over The circle leered, and
he sat down in it with as much ease
as possible. Then one Of the men
looped his arms to the arms of the
chair with thongs of buckSkin. Anoth-
er thong was tied about his ankles.
Then the clansmen went back to their
chairs.
II really don't see the use of all
these dramatics," Bruce said coldly
"And 1 don't particularly like yelled
threats. At present I seem to be Ia
your hands,"
"You don't seem to be-" Simon an
swered with reddening eyes. you
are"
II have no intention Of saying I'm
sorry / didn heed the threats you
gave me beforehand as to those I've
heard tonight-they not going to do
you any good, either. 1t is true that
you found me in the house you occu-
py in the dead of night-but 1t isn't
your house to start with. What man
seizes by murder isn't his"
what a man holds with hard fist
and his rifle-in these mountains-is
his" Simon cOntradicted him.
Besides, you got me here with
trick" Bruce went on without heed
ing him. $50 don't pretend that any
wickedness you do tonight was justi-
fed by my coming. You'll have to an
swer for it just the same"
Simon leaned forward In his chair
His dark eyes glowed in the lamp
light I've heard such talk as that
before" he said. II expect your own
father talked like that few times
himself"
The words seemed to strike straight
home to the gathered Turner'S. The
moment was breathless, weighted with
suspense. All of them seemed strain
ing in their chairs.
Bruce's head bowed, but the veins
stood out beneath the short hair on
his temples. and his lips trembled

sand this was the man who was 60
ing to renew thes blood-feud-already
hollering about the law" Simon said
TO his followers. He turned to Bruce.
"It's plain that Dave isn't going to
come. I'll have to be the chief witness
myself, after all. However Dave told
me all that / needed to know. THE
first question have to ask Of you, Fol-
ger, is the whereabouts of that agree
ment between your late lamented faith
er and the late lamented Matthew
Ross, according to what the trapper
Hudson told you a few days ago."
Bruce was strong enough to laugh
in his bonds "Up to this time have
given you and your murderous crowd
credit for at least natural intelligence"
he replied, "but l see I was mistaken
Or you wouldn't expect an answer
to that question"
"Do you mean you don't know it's
whereabOuts?'
II won't give you the satisfaction
of knowing whether | know or not /
just refuse to answer"
II trust the ropes are tight enough
about your wrists"
"Plenty tight, thank you. They are
cutting the flesh so it bleeds."
"How would you like them some
tighter?"
"Pull them till they cut my arms
off, and you won't get civil answer
out of me. In fact" and the mans
eyes blazed-"I'm tired of talking to
this outlaw crowd. And the sooner
you do what you're going to do. the
better it will suit me-"
"We'll come to that shortly enough.
Disregarding that for a mOment-we
understand that you want to open up
the blood-feud again. Is that true?"
Bruce made no answer, only gazed
without f1inching into his questiOner's
face.
"That was what my brother Dave
led me to understand" Simon went
en-, $50 we've decided to let you have
your way. It's Open-it's been open
since you came here. You disregarded
the warning l gave-and men don't
disregard my warnings twice. You
threatened Dave with your rifle. This
is different land than you're used
to, Bruce, and we do things our own
way. You've hunted for trouble and
now you've found it. Your father be-
fore you thought he could stand
against us-but he's been lying still
long time. The Rosses thought so,
too. And 1t is part of our code never
to take back a threat-but always to
make it good"
Bruce still sat with lowered head,
seemingly not listening. The clansmen
gaZed at him, and a new, more deadly
spirit was in the room. None of them
smiled now; the whole circle of faces
was dark and intent, their eyes gilt
tered through narrowed lids, their lips
set. The air was charged with sus-
pense The moment of crisis was near.
Sometimes the men glanced at their
leaders face, and what they saw there
filled them with grim and terrible
eagerness. Simon was beginning to
run true to form. His dark passions
were slowly mastering him. For mo-
ment they all sat as if entranced in
communion of cruelty, and to Bruce
they seemed like a colony of spotted

ly, the words rang clear. But the an
swer of the evil-hearted man before
him was only laugh.
"And there's one thing more l want
to make clear" Bruce went on in the
strong voice of man who had con.
uuered his terror And it was not be-
cause he did not realize his danger
He was in the hands of the Turner's,
and he knew that Simon had spoken
certain words that, If for no other
reason than his reputation with his
followers, he would have to make good.
Bruce knew that no moment of his life
was ever fraught with greater peril.
But the fact itself that there were no
doors of escape open to him, and he
was face TO face with his destiny,
steadied him all the more.
The boy that had been wakened in
his bed at home by the ring Of the
phone bell had wholly vanished now.
A man of the wild places had come
instead, stern and courageous and un-
fiinching.
Everything is tOlerable clear to us
already" Simon said, except your
sentence"
II want you to know that l refuse
to be impressed with this judicial atti-
tude of you and your blackguard fol-
lowers" Bruce went on. "This gath
ering Of the group of you doesn't
make any evil that you do any less
wrong, or the payment you'll have to
make any less sure. 1t lies wholly in
your power to kill me while Pm sitting

that you'll do it. But let me tell you
this. A reign of bloodshed and crime
