 Then she stamped her foot tenn pestuously.
 "0et out of here an watch for Mac Kenzie an his folks" she snapped. "Its about time he were storrnin' the Silent City, Pm thinkin'." l Roughly she showed the men out into the blizzard and closed the door. Then she stood with her back to It, I deep sobs rRcking her body. Now as she had almost died, and Wee Jerry too, so would Marcus Mac Kenzie. The vicious hope that she could see him writhe in his grief took possession of her. Distraughtly she placed the bar across the door, making sure It was locked. Then, creeping to the cot, she gazed down at the wet bundle. There, where she had helped Oscar Bennett over dark rough places into the light of Eternity, lay the dearest dear cf her bitterest enemy.
 She uttered an exclamation when she saw a lifting shudder go over the thing on the bed. A smile fitted across her face, and her hands came together conyusively.
 Slowly she knelt down and un- wrapped the thick blankets and Eve lyn Mackenzie was staring out at her, dull eyed and terrified. A dark rag completely filled her mouth and Polly grinned Ut her.
 Do you know what squatters do to chickens they swipe from you rich folksf" she asked huskily. Although she could not speak, Eve lyn heard and understood. She closed her eyes, her face going drabber In weary Ids flew open again.
 Polly had stepped to the wood-box and was picking up the nx. She brought 1t forward and smiling the same sinister smile, showed It 10 the pallld girl
 This was all she said, tapping the handle.
 Evelyn struggled; and Polly laughed, a wicked laugh, no more like the ripple which Daddy Hopkins had loved to hear than the bark of a wolf is like the lark's morning song.
 Tears rose Into Eyelyn's eyes and rolled down her cheeks. The smile faded slowly from Polly's face. Ever had excruciating agony tou"hed her like a sunbeam through rift in q storm cloud, the old Polly leaped up to take heed Of another's hurt This feel Ing she crushed down; but she put the aX on the floor and squatted beside the bed
 Scarcely had she done this before a loud knock came on the door. She threw the blankets over Evelyn and went swiftly forward and lifted the bar.
