which my companion said, "Good
work." And I remembered the fad
ed and dog-eared certificate, with
the photo attached, also slightly fad
ed, showing my father looking young
and strong, in the pride Of his early
manhood. I'd always treasured that
picture Of him, the only one pos
sessed.
THAT means our battles half
won," proclaimed Lander.
why do you say our battle?" I
asked. Lander's face, as our glances
locked, hardened little. Then he
laughed his curt laugh.

he said, ''I'm going to be bullheaded
enough to see it through"
"But it's all so long ago." OBJ

my career isn't wrecked. I'm
thinking Of swinging in with the
Happy Day outfit, in fact, just be-
yond the Matanuska."
"Why?" I asked.
Because then we won't be so far
apart" he said. ,

said. s
You're easy to be kind to-" Lam
der retorted with quiet intensity
that should have shifted my heart
action into high. But I had certain
things m rny,oorohor

could see his jaw muscles hard
en- as he sat staring at me in the
dim light from the lantern.
II guess I'm running little ahead
of schedule" he said as he rose to
his feet. I watched him, with a
small Jingle Of disappointment, as
he backed out Of the tent opening.
you're not going away?" I cried
out above the whining of the wind.
"I'n bed down up in the drivers
seat" he casually remarked. And
in a few minutes I could feel the
fren1or of fhe truck as he r1irnhad
aboard, up in front. ] could hear
him, moment later, as he nested
himself under his double blankets.
He wouldn't, knew, be very COM
Portable there. I even wondered, as
I stretched out on the hay next to
my blanket-swathed little papoose, if
wind and cold wouldn't drive him
back under cover, where he had a
perfect right to be.

CHAPTER v

I was awakened, early the next
morning, by Lander reaching in for
the lantern. The drifter was over,
he explained, but he'd have an hour
of shovel work before we could hope
to climb back to the trail bed.
He hadn't slept any too well, I'm
afraid, up on his wind-swept drivers
seat. detected a sort of glum fury
in his movements as he shoveled at
the snowdrift that embedded us.
Even after I'd boiled coffee and
cooked breakfast for him he inn
pressed me as unnecessarily con-
strained and silent.
It was late in the afternoon when
we got through to Toklutna.
Miss Teetzel promptly ordered the
Indian baby to the infrmary and
sent for Doctor Ruddock. Lander,
ignoring the lady's glacial eye, quiz
city asked me if I'd be good enough
to give him my fathers naturaliza-
ton papers.
! had no way Of knowing what
Miss Teetzel said to Lander dur
ing my absence. But / didn't like
the heat-lightning fire that glowed
in those deep-set eyes Of his as he
took the proffered document from
me. He studied it, for moment,
the lines Of his mouth still grim.
''I'n take this, if you don't mind"
he said as he tucked it away. It'll
help to clear things up"
! wasn't unconscious, all the while,
of Miss Teetzel's narrowed eye fixed
on my face. 4
There's one point ! should like
to see cleared up" she announced,
her lips pressed into a foreboding
straight line. ''Where did you spend
the night?"
why, in the truck, of course" /
answered. "There was no place to
co."
''And this man?" she questioned,
with a second stony glance at the
altogether unimpressed Lander.
Naturally, he slept in the truck
too" quietly acknowledged.
The lemon-squeezer jaw took on a
new line of grirnness.
''I've an idea, Miss Coburn," said
the lady of unpolluted purity so icily
confronting me, ''that your days in
this school are quite definitely num-
bered."
It was Lander who spoke first.
what does that mean?" he said.
1T means, SIR was the icily
enunciated reply, that there are
certain things this institution will
not stand for. And you and your
perilously modern travelling COM
panion have just been guilty of one
of Them"

father had real mine there. And
he must have known it."
''Of course he did," said, recall
ing ghostly scraps of talk from my
childhood.
''Well, so does the Trumbull out
fit," proclaimed my companion.
"The Chakitana Development Com
pany always wanted clean sweep
Of that valley bottom. They even
sent me up there as field engineer
to find out how the land lay and
corral any territory needed to round
out their development work. 1t was
your fathers claim which cut their
field in two and kept them from hav-
ing full control" ss
"He always said he'd never sell
OUT" explained.
'sOf course he did," cried Lander.
"He may have been lone-fire pros
pector, but he knew he held a key
position there. And when they

asked.
Eyes; but they tried to cloud his
title by claiming his location lines
were wrong. The official survey,
when his first twenty acres were pat
ented, showed the eastern limits of
the claim to border on the Big
Squaw where that creek ran into
the Chakitana. The Big Squaw, in
the open season, has a fine flow Of
water. And you can't mine in Alas
ka without water. / saw the Fair
banks Exploration Company spend
a year and a half bringing water
to their placer fields. And Trum-
bull wants that water for his upper
shelf just about as much as he
wants the claim
"How do you know all this?" I
asked.
Because I've seen the Trumbull
papers. And I made it my business
to investigate some of the Trum-
bull moves. / know, for example,
that while his engineers pretended
to be doing development work their
powdermen planted enough dyna-
mite in the right place to change the
course Of Big Squaw Creek. Then
they brought in a Record Office sur
veyor who naturally found the Co
burn location stakes all wrong"
''The thing that puzzles me-" l
interposed, ''is why you're not loyal
to the man you're working for"
Lander's laugh was curt.
"f you can't sense that" he said,
81 can't explain it to you." He
laughed again, less harshly. Lets
put it down to the fact that man
can't work for a boss he, doesn't
believe in"
! still found blaze or two miss
ing along that trail.
''But why should he call my IA
theirs claim fraudulent one?"
''Klondike Coburn, he contends,
was born on the Canadian side Of
the line"
''That's true enough" / conced-
ed. "But what about it?"
"A great deal. 1t means he wasn't
a citizen. And the law says pat
emit can be allotted only to citizens"
''But my father was naturalized, :"
] told him, "a year or two before
! was born. He even used to talk
about when he moved up out of the
Indian class and got right to vote. ;"
Lander's spine suddenly stiffened.
"Are you sure of that?" he de-
manded. "Trumbull claims there's
no record of it."

planned. HE sent them out to me

dixie Coburn's daughter. And I don't
relish the thought of working against
