the lightning they could not see. And
it rained as though determined never

Half an hour passed. The rain
was lessening. although the fact
made little difference; neither Sally.
nor the Wreck, nor the woods could
get any wetter.

we left the camp"

But you'll never find the camp

There was no use in arguing or
trying to discourage him, and Sally
knew they might better be moving
herself to be led on another journey
through the darkness. The Wreck
seemed to be tireless. He plodded

Wreck searched stubbOrnly for
hours, 1t seemed. He would not adj
NIT that he was lost, although Sally
would have conceded 1t without hest

theory that cropping through the
woods was like walking the streets
of Pittsburgh-even if you happened
to be in a strange neighborhood you
would locate your street at last.
Let's rest awhile he suggested.

Sally was willing. Her skirt was
heavy with moisture and her legs
were tired. They found a fallen tree
and sat for a long time, during which
the moon came out. 1t did not give
them much light. but it had a cheer
full aspect. They did not talk
much. She felt that the Wreck was
chaSrined about their failure to find
the Aivver and did not refer to it.
Nor did she even speculate on what
they We're going to do next, although
it seemed to her that their plight
was more unfavorable than ever.
we ought to be getting some
daylight in an hour or so" she said.
He agreed with her and suggested
that they walk again. There seemed
to be no end to the woods. How far
they travelled. or in what direction.
Sally had not the smallest idea. She
felt quite helpless. The one thing
that gave her measure of conf
dence was the demeanor Of the
Wreck. He was undaunted: every
thing would be all right as soon as It
got light enough to see what they
were doing.
They were resting again when a
noise made by something that moved
stirred them both to alertness. 1t
was not far distant, and Sally held
her breath as she chung to the
Wrecks fingers. Several times the
noise was repeated; 1t was sa If
some heavy body were forcing its
way through the brush.
Maybe It's one of the gang" she
whispered.
Maybe. Do they have bears
here?"
Not many. I reckon. I never
saw one"
You stay here" he said. I'm
going to see what 1t is"
NO"

IT don't care. You'd better stay

They heard the noise again.
I'm going" said the Wreck. "Sit
still"
'Henryl'
He was gone. trying to be stealthy
about 1t. but making a din as he
plunged forward into the gloom.
Sally gritted her teeth and followed
him. What was he laundering into
now?
She was several yards behind him
when she heard a scuffle, then a
muffled exclamation from the
Wreck Something was plunging
around in the brush ahead of her.
Henry! she called sharply.
Henry
Then his excited voice floated back
to her.
1--WE got hold of a horse,' he cried.
'Whatll I do with it?"
"A horse!'
Yes, a horse"
Hang onto it; I'm coming"
She went forward at a run.

CHAPTER XXI
The Sheriff's Horse

When she reached him, the Wreck
was still struggling with dark
shape that was making desperate eff
forts to back out of the encounter.
LET me see." said Sally. pushing
herself to the front. What are you
holding him by, anyhow? Why, he's
bridled!"
It had not occurred to the Wreck
that a horse roaming the woods at
night did not usually wear a bride,
but to Sally, who knew about things,
it was an oddly.
Easy now, boy" She had hold Of
the bride. and was talking in a
soothing, professional tone. The eff
feet of her voice and her practiced
hand was almost immediate. THAT

loose in the woods?'
An instant later she made a sec

"Saddled, tool That's queer. He's
broken loose from some place. I
suppose the storm scared him There
now, boy; steady. Well. can you
beat It? saddled and bridled. all
ready to hand"
She stroked the animals neck,
patted his shoulder and talked gently
to him. Presently he responded
with a nuzzling against her arm, and
then she knew she had him.
1--WE can't be far from the camp,
Henry. He must belong to Nosey,
or one Of that crowd. of course. A
horse might get frightened in a
storm like that. but he wouldn't run
very far in the woods. Listen!"
