only chance We have"
She smiled 1T him. AT least,
Bill, we'll have done everything We
could. Goodby, little cabin-where
found happiness Sometime, per-
haps, we'll come back to you,"
The man bent and kissed her,
and she gave the word for Harold
TO start.
| At the end of three bitter days,
Bill Bronson stood once more on
the hill that looked down upon
Bradleyburg The twilight was
growing in the glen beneath; al
ready it had cast shadows in Vir-
ginia's eyes. She sat beside him
on the sled.

had every chance to heal.
Bills sight had grown steadily
better as the days had passed; al
ready the Spirits of Mercy had per
mitted him. at close range, to be-
, hold Virginia's face.
A haif-mile back. just before they
approached the first fringe of the
spruce forest, they had met trap
per just starting out on his line:
/ and he had gladly consented to
! take Harold the rest of the way

prison TO face a charge of attempt
ed murder-a crime that in the
northwest provinces is never re-
garded lightly.
And you weren't drowned" the
/ trapper marveled. when he had got
his breath We've been mournin'
you for dead-fOr months"
'Drowned-not a bit of it." Vir-
GINA answered gayly. And don't
mourn any more"
: Bill felt wholly able to follow the
broad snowshoe track the half-mile
farther into town. The footsteps
of the men had grown faint and
died away-and Virginia and he
were left together on the hill.
They saw the church spire, tall
and ghostly in the twilight. and
} Bills strong arms pressed the girl
close. She understood and smiled
happily.
"Of course, Bill" she told him,

fore. And then-we've got to take
him by surprise"
And then"
Quickly. with few words, she told
him the rest of her plot
Harold walked into the trap set
by Virginia
I'm coming for my snowshoes,
Virginia" he told her. Then I'm
going to go away" He tried 10
draw his battered, bloody lips into
a smile. "Come in and get them"
she replied Her voice was low and
lifeless. Harold stepped through
the door. And then she uttered a
curious cry.
Now" she called sharply. There
was no time for Harold TO dart
back. even to be alarmed. A mighty
force descended upon his body.
In less than a minute he was
bound helpless.
my God. what are you going to
do to me-" he asked.
why. Harold, you are to be our
little truck horse" Virginia replied,
as she handed Bill more thongs.
You are going to pull the sled
and show the way down into Brad
leyburg."
When the dawn came full and
bright over Clearwater, Bill and
his party were ready to start
When Harold had been thor
oughly cowed and his full instruc-
tions given him, the thongs had
been put about his ankles and re-
moved from his wrists. and ne was
permitted to do the packing.
That procedure was exceedingly
simple; all available blankets were
piled on the sled and made into a
bed for Virginia. and the AK. can
dies, and such cooking utensils as
were needed were packed in front.
And then they had a short but deci-
sive interview with Harold.
Il won't go-I'l die first" he
cried to Virginia. Besides. you
see. You know if you kill me you'll
die Yourself"
Fair enough" Virginia replied
sweetly. But take just this little
word of advice. Bill and l were
all reconciled to dying when We
thought of you-and we won't mind
it now if we're sure you are going
along. And Bill will tell you that l
can shoot straight Perhaps you
learned that fact last night"
They heightened the thong that
tied his ankles together. giving him
room for a full walking step but
not enough to leap or run.
They put on his hands a pair of
awkward mittens that had been
stiffened by mud and water, and
dashed them to his wrists
Then they slipped the thong of
the sled across his shoulders and
under his arms like the loops of a
kyack. They were ready to go.

The battle was short thereafter
Harold was never a match for Bill
The latter's hard fists dashed into
his face, blow after blow with
grim reports in the silence. Har-
Odds resistance ceased; his body
quivered and lay still. Remember
ing Virginia, Bill leaped to his
feet.
But Harold was not quite uncon-
scious. But one impulse was left
to escape; and dumbly he crawl

No weapon remained in his hand
