The green of the wilderness duIled
and burst into the yellow of the buck
eye, the scarlet of maple and the rus
set of oak. This glory in turn duIled
and the leaves, like petals of withered
flowers, began to drift to the earth.
Through the shower of them went
Erskine and Firefiy, who had become
as used to the wilds as to the smiling
banks of the far-away James. And
the two now were one in mutual affec-
ton and mutual understanding that
was uncanny.

to the wish of king. For food he

the trunk Of beech; toward sunset
Q fat pheasant fiuttered from the
ground 10 low limb and he shot its
head or AMI camped for the night.
ON the second day he reached the
broad buffalo trail that led to the salt
ticks and on to the river. and then
memories came. He remembered a
place where the Indians had camped
after they bad captured himself and
his mother. In his mind was a faint
picture Of her sitting against tree
and weeping and of an Indian striking
her TO make her stop and of himself
leaping AT the savage like little Wild
cat. whereat the others laughed like
children. Farther on next day. was
the spot where the Indians had sepa-
rated them and he saw bis mother no
more. They told him thar she had
been taken back TO the whites. but he
was told later that they had killed
her because In their flight from the
whites she was holding them back too

they had hurried from the trail and
thrust him into hollow log. barring
the exit with stones. and had left Lila

further to go, for Dawes rife cracked

more whoopings and greetings, and
Lydla's starting tears turned to smiles.
Dave had to tell about his trip and
Erskines races-for the lad would say
nothing-and in turn followed stories
Of killing buffalo, deer, panther aud
