Nelson or one Of his men.
Helooked out cf the door Of the
cavern, trying 10 get some idea 81
the hour. The very quality Of tha
darkness indicated that the might
was far advanced.
Instantly his keen eyes saw the
far-ott CLEAN Of the camp fire on
the distant margin Of the lake.
His straining ear caught the faint
est almost imperceptible vibration
in the air-bnt' Ben recognized It
in q flash. In the sullen light Of
that distant camp fire, Beatrice
had screamed for aid.
Swiftly he started down the
glade toward her.
Yet inka moment he knew that
unless he conserve hts strength he
could not hope 10 make q fourth
OF the distance. At the first steps
he swayed, half staggering.
Likely he would come too late
to change the girls fate. Yet even
now he knew he must not turo
back. II the penalty were death,
there must be no hesltancy in
him; he must not withhold one
step.
He fell again and again as he
tried to make Roadway in the
marsh. Only too plain he saw that
the time was even now upon him
when he could no longer keep his
feet at all.
But a that instant he remem
bered the canoe. He plunged dowt
into the tall tules. Yes, the boat
was still in, place.
It took all the strength Of his
weakened body to push It out
from the reeds. Il
The canoe was strongly but
lightly made, 80 that 1t could b.
portrayed with greatest possible
ease; and his strokes, though
feeble, propelled It slowly through
the water.
