CHAPTER XIV

The men at the mill had worked
all night, unloading the wrecked car,
repairing the track, loading again.
Disregarding the raw wind that blew
through the valley, the occasional
spit of snow, Branford Wills had
worked with them, observing and
listening, making himself as help
full and unobtrusive as possible. He
did not deceive himself. Something
was wrong at the mill. There was
much shouting and rough talk, but
there was also a secretiveness, a
watchfulness. It appeared to Wills
that among the older hands there
was also an uneasy discomfort.
They were uncertain of each 9TH
er. And few had an air of inso-
lence, q tendency to swagger. But
Wills could not discover that any
definite animosity was directed to-
ward him. They were curt and one
or two were a bit scornful Of his
ability in matters Of strength or
skill, but there were no covert sneers
to be detected, no goading or in
suits. He was a tenderfoot and an
outsider and they let him know it.
but that was all.
1t was growing day when he re-
turned to his room at the Clark cot
tage to snatch few hours of sleep.
His legs were q trihe shaly, his
throat felt raw, but he was grimly
resolute. Some mdercnrent was
working IN the Morgan mill and he
intended to know what il was and
what force impelled it. He had .
double motive. He was indebted tc

riddle Of sabotage and put IN end

th.Wind

The thin, blue winter dawn came
late. She had already given up hope
Of rest when the east began to be
pearl and aquamarine. She got up
and dressed, putting on her good
blue suit, her best silk blouse. She
would have preferred going into ac-
ton in her old corduroys and boots.
but this fight today was to be one
Of wits, Of law and acknowledgment
to be conducted in a disreputable
old hat jerked belligerently over one
eye.
At least, thank goodness, her enc
my was now standing forth in the
open. The secret hawk that beat
dark wings between her sid the sky
was thing Of form and definition.
And she felt sure that if she could
keep Payne and Hooper and Wal
lace Withers from getting possession
of the timber area on Hazel Fork,
she could defeat their schemes. She
knew every inch of land, every
standing tree, every foot of availa-
BILE pulp wood for hundred miles
around. What little Wallace With
ers owned, even counting the acre
age he had bought from Perry Ben
nett, would not 60 far. No man in
his right mind would put money into
a mill, with so scant supply as that
in prospect. And the rest, except
for Toms rich heritage, was tied up
by leases by power concerns or lum-
Der people-or by the great Cham
pion mill, except what she herself
controlled.
She knew that Wallace Withers
would extend himself to destroy her.
No pestilence ever set loose in any
cline could work the havoc wrought
by an ignorant, bigoted man, work.
ing ruthlessly for his own ends,
especially when under this fierce,
cold passion for eminence there
burned the moving fury of person
al spite. Wallace was a vain and
INSCRIPTIONS man, disdained. No
ethics would deter him, no reasoning
touch him. He would break her if
he could, because only by reducing
her to suppliant meekness could he
rebuild the brittle tower of his own
prime conceit.
She made cup of coffee, in the
kitchen, and drank it black and hot.
Lossie came scuffing in in bedroom
slippers, her hair plastered stiffly in
net.
MY goodness" she exclaimed,
you going to the mill this early?
Whyn't you call me to get you some
breakfast"
'I'l eat later. I've got a lot to
do. don't know when I'll be back"
Her old car roared down the hill.
The early morning fog was lying in
great white scarves of feathers down
the slopes of the mountains. The
steam of the mill drifted like wings
against a dawn-quickened sky, as
she approached the gate.
Suddenly she found herself deeply
moved, loving that shambling build
ing. the windows burning in the wan,
wintry sun, the ranked piles of
wood, even the choking, sulphide
smell that lay along the ground so
insistently. The mill was her life
all the rest of her life. It was Da-
vid-what was left to her of the man
she had loved.
She would fight for it. Stif1y she
set her chin on that thought.
The night men, not yet gone off
shift, stared at her as she walked,
eyes ahead, face grim and reso-
lutte, across the frozen yard.
