LOST EH;ai
BY ARNOLD cep,rsM 1857. kEA Se.. l NEX- EN -

Her mother and her grandmOth-
erS for many generations back
had felt no VualmS at death.
Nevertheless, those same women
| had known what lovc-for-a-man
was. Robert Barry had been kind
or 10 Honey Bee Girl than any
other white man, or any other
red man tor that matter, had
ever been. Not the thought OF
death, as such, but the thought
of danger to this particular man,
caused some strange, unexplained
reaction within her. She watched
and waited, breathing hard.
But what Scott Holliman--hc
who had accompanied Bob 10 the
cliff top and let down the rope?
1t hadn't taken his employer
long To disappear over the edge of
the cliff. HOLMAN had warned
him To ba careful, but in Bob
Barry was the supreme conf
dcncc of young physical strength.
Hoffman could see nothing
after Bob disappeared. The rim
curved prccarioISly for six or
eight feet before the edge was
reached, and he dared not try to
pccr over at Bob. He had just let
the rope out slowly as instructed,
then held it, Snubbcd, when it
was almost gone.
1t occurred TO him that he
! hadn't been told when to pull his
| boss back up. He wasn't sure ne
could pull him back anyway. The
| cliff edge was Of sharp Jagged
rock. II would cut into the rope,
maybe sever it.
This thought suddenly startled
hoffman.
He made sure that his end of
the rope was tied, then went as
close to the cdg" rs he dared.
"Mr. Barry" he called.
No answer. Hoffman yelled II,
but still got no reply. Then n,
too, realized that the wind was
whipping the sound away Sui.
den alarm struck him. He cUIid
not see Barry, nor communicate
with him.
He did peer over far enough IT,
see HadcS Jones running. An"
the two women were moving
about and pointing up. But he
was unable to deduce anything
from that.
He noticed motion in the rope
and quickly grabbed it.
There were slight regular Jerks
for a bit. Then a Swaying pull
first right then left. In alarm h'
looked at the rocky edge where
the rope disappeared. The fiber
was indeed beginning to fray!
HOLMAN strained 10 pull it VI
TO a fresh spot, lest it be sawed
apart. But Barry was q hcav!
man, and friction at the rock was
too great. Good Lord" HOlh
man growlcd, genuinely alarmed
now. He looked dcSpcratcl!
around him.
The man felt peculiarly help
less. He did quickly decide to let
out few inches more Of rope
there wasn't very much lcft--ano
so put fresh place on the sharI
rock edge. That leSScncd one dan
ger, he felt.
He shouted again and again
but no answer. The alternate
tightening OF the rope indicated i;
swinging or Swaying. Holman:
alarm mounted.
Then suddenly the rope slack
cncd. HOLMAN fell back prone
with the sudden give. of ii. II,
held ii then. limp in his hands
and stared at il.
"Uhnnnnh" he literally groan
! cd in despair, pulling the looS'
rope up a few feet. Quickly he
turned TO go back toward theiI
horses.
