Kerry Young, a lad of seven, is

him at the death of Kerry's mother.
Tod West has instructed Kerry to

Young scratched his head and
took a deep breath.
'It's little deep for me-" he
laughed.
"Ain't it what a man thinks that
counts more than what he does?"
In Hinkle's voice was sort of pas
sionate plea for understanding.
Eyes; I guess you're right"
"You see, Young, "-grasping the
front of Kerry's slicker and look
ing quickly about,-'I didn't want
to come to you today! I knew you
caught Tod dealin' crooked, even if
l didn't dare let on to him md the

I didn't owe you anythin'. That's
what makes me feel like a skunk !"
ooh, I see. Yes, see how
it is. So it was necessary for
you to make that play this morn
ing. That it, Jim?"
Almost reluctantly, the man said !:

"But you were wrong. You are

The impact of his body on the
stream made mighty splash. He
came up Immediately, shaking his
eyes clear and treading water.
"Wh-what you t'ink you dom,
eh?" he gasped. "What you"
II think I knocked you loose
from yourself as beginning J"
Kerry said holly. "And I'm stand
ing here to wait for you to come up
again. I'll knock you in as fast as
you come up, Injun. 49,. That Is, If
YOU come up on this side. If you
want to keep out Of trouble with
me, you swim yourself across
yonder and stay there! Get that!
Stay there!"
''Ho! So you t'ink-'
With a defiant curse the man
started swimming for the forbid
den shore, and Young, hitching at
his belt, followed slowly along the
trestle, ready for second encoun-
ter. But Bluejay had not gone far,
looking upward at that dark and
Infatuated face, when he hesitated,
spat angrily and turned, striking
out for Vests Landing, swimming
like an otter.

CHAPTER Viii

NOV as Kerry Young walked on
l y alone through the fine rain,
that mental snarl which Jim
Hinkle's confession had occasioned
Strengthened out into this simple
fact:
If Jim had not a lawyer-proof
alibi to absolve him from suspicion
in the Downer matter, then the
whereabouts Of Tod West on that
Hateful night were also open to spec
ulation.
Hinkle was no killer. Despite the
mans misgivings Of self, Kerry was
convinced that, drunk or sober, he
would will no serious harm to even
his worst enemy.
And last night Ezra had said, the
first piece Of money from the
Downer loot had made it's appear
ance; had made it's appearance in
a poker game In which Tod West
sat cheating.
He stood still, digesting these
simple but astounding implica tons.
If West had not played cribbage
with Hinkle, he might have been
anywhere that November evening.
If West were in possession Of the
money for which Cash Downer had
been murdered, that would be fact
to arouse the official interest Of q
coroner's clerk, for certain.
And, added to these, was this
item: that Tod West had been
going armed for no one knew how
long.

listened, and then went on rapidly.
"Well, I got 'em all right, up
on Big Beaver. They was good
lads and paid me we'll; they had
lot of booze and give me a bottle,
and l started back on foot bout
shutdown for the Landin', and that's
the last / know until mornin', when
I woke up in Tod's.
HE woke me up, see? He told
me, then, that Cash'd been killed.
He just said that: Cash was MUIR
dered last night And then he
asked: Where was you, Jim?
II didn't know where I'd been,
Young. / knew I'd been wanderin'
round somewhere with rifle.
knew I'd been awful dam mad at
Cash. r. - just didn't know
anything more than that"
Hinkle strained to swallow, his
breath quick and audible.
II lost what little head l had, l
guess. I went down on my knees
to him; I begged him to tell me
where I'd been, how l come there.
l was scared, I tell you!
HE told me to brace up. He
didn't know where I'd been, he said.
He'd found me wanderin' along the
siding late in tn evenin'.
Nobody knows just when Cash
was killed but, as West tells 1t,
that was probably some little time
afterward. He set there and fig
ured it all out. The ground was
froze hard as iron; there wasn't
any snow except in the timber.
Whoever did the job left no sign,
and if it wasn't told around that
I'd been out alone, drunk, and with
a loaded rifle, nobody'd suspect me.
So he said he was always ready
to go to the front for a friend,
and framed up a story bout my
playin' cribbage with him . !. in
his room, upstairs, where he had
a stove.
II amt no killer, Young! l never
wanted to hurt man, serious. I've
figured and figured over this thing.
It's most drove me crazy some
times! l was pref sore at Cash
but God, Young, wouldn't
we killed him, sober; wouldn't we
done it!'
| He ran an unsteady hand over
his face.
"And no one knows that you
did,"
Young, with a host of ideas and
| theories and suspicious crowding
his mind, wanted to be alone, now.
cts fine Of you to act this way,
Jim,' he said. I'm not going to
forget it. And don't you worry
"You won't whisper it,"
mot to a soul!"
| Hinkle drew a breath Of relief.
swell, I'll be gone, then. I. {.
I'll see you again. And about Ell
sic God, Young, you'll never
| know!''

thought it necessary to believe
what West said instead of what
your eyes told YOU"
"He amounts to a lot around
here, Tod West does"
"And you don't dare cross himw
"Not much. God, Young, If
you only knew''
"I'm here; I'm ready to listen"
"But / can't tell you! It's nothin'
that concerns you. It's nothing
you know about"
He had started to back away.
Kerry, mind clicking smartly, real
lied that here was perhaps an out
side chance to learn more of Tod
West than he could learn from any
other source. He pressed his adj
vantage.
'Tts something that concerns
you, though, Jim. It's something
that makes you /. well, that keeps
you under Vests thumb? That it?"
"Or his he'll" The mans voice
shook.
"You've had a lot to think about
today. You've made an about-face
and have come clean with me on
one detail. Now wouldn't it be
the smart thing to carry right on?
To put yourself in position where
you could look any man in the eye
and say what you think and feel?''
Jim laughed harshly. "As IL ]
could! And what II I tried?"-des-

noon up river but a clean, upright
respect and something deeper |
than that.
Stuart withdrew after a time,
leaving Nan and Kerry alone. The
door to the great lounging room of
the headquarters was open. Logs
smouldered on the hearth there.
'It's damp" the girl said; 'let's
finish our talk near the fire."
So she curled in massive arm
chair on one side of the hearth
while Young sat opposite her and
continued the talk Of the job. Tip,
with sigh of contentment,
stretched on his side before the
fire, and when pause came in
their discussion of timber estimates
and mapping the girls eyes rested
on him.
"What a lovely creature!" she
murmured and the retriever, open
ing one eye, raped his tail as If
understanding and approaching the
compliment.
Nan and Kerry laughed and Tip
stretched and sighed luxuriously
and Topped his tail again.
It was late when he left Nan, an
agreement reached and ready to
report in the morning to work at
the big drafting board.
He had not gone far when he
/ felt Tip come bit closer, and then
a vague figure detached itself from
the shadow of a pine tree.
The hail, when it came, though
cautious and low, was not un-
friendly.
.'Young? That you, Young?"
"Yo! What's up?"
The other approached and then
Kerry halted.
.'It's Jim Hinkle, Young"
ooh, hullo, Jim! How's the girl?''
"Fine! All right" looking
about cautiously. II -. wonder il
, I could git you to stop here a min
ute? I got somethin' / got to say
to you, Young!"
He was wholly sincere, ana not
at all at ease. That billigerence
, which had been on display early In
, the morning was wholly gone.
"Well, when a mans got to talk
why, he's just got to talk

what?" The man was adamant,
refused to talk, so gently, firmly,
Kerry began arguing, urging for
confidence, playing on the funda-
mental decency in Jim Hinkle's
heart.
II can't! can'tT' he burst out.
'You don't know Tod West! Why,
