"But you are not from Clayton" said
Wilton, who, of course, knew all the
members of the small force of police
that was stationed there.
"We're from the Pas" answered the
sergeant shortly.
From the Pas! That explained how
the sled had come along the road be-
hind him. Bowyer must have discov-
cred the fact Of Joe's death In some
manner, and had probably spread the
news. Wilton surmised that Jules
Halfhead had somehow managed to
indicate the fact to him.
The constable solved his problem.
I'VE was on patrol" he vouchsafed.
"And we met parties who told us
about Joe Bostock having met with an
accident, and that you was bringing
him in"
"That'll be all !" snapped the SER

subsidized promptly. II guess this

continued.
"This lady is Miss Mcdonald" said
Wilton angrily, "and you'll keep civil
tongue in your head, sergeant"
Peters looked him up and down inso-
lently, and for moment or two the
men faced each other In an aggressive
attitude. Then the sergeant, sneering,
swung on his heel. Wilton did not
know what to make Of his attitude, for
the police were always friendly.
Andersen's room was placed at Mol

The dogs were yelping and snarling

"Joe was shot at my side In the

grimly.
"My God. it's all up with the line

drawing to his fire.
Wilton looked at Molly, who had
come out of the bedroom and was
standing near him. Andersen's excIa-
