Her heart lost a beat The shad-

creeping over her life. Was her
father dead? What shock was
awaiting her in the cabin?
Father" she whispered, and
moved forward.
/ A hand fell on her wrist and
closed, the fingers like bands of
iron. Joyce screamed wildly, her
nerve swept away in a reaction of
terror. She fought like a wildcat,
twisting and writhing with all her
supple strength to break the grip
on her arm.
For she knew now what the evil
was that had been tolling a bell oil
warning in her heart.
The change in the wind had cost
three lives, but it had saved the
Jackpot property and the feed on
the range.

What note?"

I Crawford turned. Come here,

Sanders moved across.
Hank says you sent a note to
Joyce sayin' I'd been hurt. What
about it?''
"Of course not" answered Dave,
perplexed..
The teamster scratched his head.
