sharply.
"Never mind now" said old Joel
soothlngly. you must keep still r.
The boys eyes had begun to shift un
der the scrutiny and he started away.
Come back here" commanded the
wounded man, and still searching the
lad he said sharply again:
"Who is that boy?" Nor would he
have his wound dresser or ever take
the cup of water handed to him until
old Joel briefly told the story, when he
lay back on the ground and closed
his eyes.
Darkness fell. In each tower a
watcher kept his eyes strained toward
the black silent woods. The dying
man was laid on a rude bed within
one cabin, and old Joel lay on the
floor of 1t close to the door. The
stranger lad refused to sleep indoors
and huddled himself in a blanket on
the ground In n corner Of the stock
ade. Men. ONE and children fell
to a deep and weary sleep. An hour
later the boy In the corner threw
aside his blanket, and when. a mo-
ment later, Lydia Noe, feverish and
thirsty, rose from her bed to get a
drink of water outside her door, she
stopped short on the threshold. The
lad, stark naked but for his breech-
clout and swinging his bloody scalp
over his head, was stamping around
the fre-dancing the scalp-dance of
the savage TO n low, fierce, cultural
song. The boy saw her, saw her face
In the blaze, stricken white with
fright and horror, saw her too para
lyzed to move and he stopped, staring
at her n moment with savage rage,
and went on again. Old Joel's body
filled the next doorway. He called out
with q harsh oath, and again the boy
stopped. With another oath and q
threatening gesture Joel motioned to
the corner of the stockade, and with
n flare Of defiance In his black eyes
the lad stalked slowly and proudly
away. From behind him the voice of
the wounded man called, and old Joel
turned. There was a CHASTITY smile on
