force attacking a mighty mountain.
Strong hands pinioned her arms. and
while she stood raging at them, she
saw Wee Jerry snatched from his IA
theirs shoulders and set on the ground.
Then they led Daddy Hopkins away.
Dazed for moment, Polly stood shak-
ing from head to foot. Grasping Jerry
by the hand, she ran swiftly after
them, crying out in despair that Daddy
must go home with her and the baby.
At the lane Hopkins turned and
spoke to her.

With her arms about his neck she
gave the promise squatter women
make their men when the majesty of
the law steps into the Silent City.
"Pll keep the baby an the shanty
till you get back, Daddy darlin'," she
sobbed "Give your girl-brat kisses,
an'-here's Wee Jerryl"
Even the officer who had the squir-
rel turned his head as the girl chung
to the big squatter.
Afraid to lead their prisoner
through the Silent City, the deputies
marched him up the lane toward the
railroad tracks. AS they turned into
the boulevard. Hopkins looked back
down the hill. Pollyop was still In the
road. and Wee Jerry was in her arms,
his face pressed against her neck.

Throwing questioning glance from

though conscious of the hate that was

Kenzie rudeIy. Let her tell her lies
here. I'd like to hear what she has to

A flush mounted to Roberts face SIS
he turned angrily on the speaker.
During the moment he was struggling
for composure, Mrs. Robertson and her
daughter hung on the scene with bated
breaths.

into his chair with a muttered apology.
II didn't come to tell lies, Mr. Mac

the recollection of her fathers des-
perate need overwhelmed her. and she
walled: "Your men planted squirrel

then Marcus Mackenzie laughed again.
Lower and lower fell the curly head,

plainly than any words could have

Robert stopped and lifted her up.

Then her face, lighted by radiant
thought, lost Its drabness; and for a
time she stroked the bowed young
head. Then:

That question had never been put to
