Lark was on her feet instantly. Judge Tavner," she said, "Gait W;the and I had every firm intention of returning the horse to Squire Jar-ro- d Terraine. We love Red Raskall dearly and can not accept Mr. Dawes' claim. All of you heard him, just now, threaten to put him behind a plow! Why Red Raskall's a thoroughbred! If you could get in touch with Mr. Terraine in Ke-ntucky" Judge Tavner said formally, "Miss Shannon, it has been clearly shown by Mr. Dawes that Squire Terraine, by a very reckless writ-ten agreement, has forfeited all his possessions. Whatever may have been his spoken intentions as to his slaves and horses, this agreement, held by Mr. Dawes does give him claim to the horse you found, and the court must recognize it as such." "Just a minute, please, Judge." Minnie was on her feet again. "What about them 'finders-keeper- laws? Why wouldn't they come into this case?" "I assume you mean the Mari-time Salvage Laws. Minnie. This court does have Admiralty Rights which I think are clearly applicable here.

At the fair Lark rides Red Raskall In a race the horse she had managed to hobble after the shipwreck, and wins the race. Dr. Matson Is at the fair, a prisoner. CHAPTER XX Minnie said, "Damn your mean little stinking soul, Plascutt Dawes," and then, with great com-- j posure and good nature, paid out the fine which the judge imposed for contempt of court. "It was worth It," she said loudly, "cheap at dou-ble the price!" She winked at Lark and squeezed bick Into her arm chair. For a moment there was general laughter, and the judge had to rap again for attention. "I'm not done with you yet, Miss Buxtree," Plascutt's lawyer said se-verely, and Minnie, with a gusty sigh heaved herself again to her feet. She was enjoying herself thoroughly and had engaged the sympathy of the court room. That was very plain. The lawyer consulted his client for a moment and then said, "Miss Shannon did want to collect the re-ward money, didn't she? She was eager and greedy for that, I have been told." "Greedy for that!" Minnie mim-icked his tone to perfection. "And who, on God's green earth, if they'd lost every stick and stitch of their possessions in a shipwreck, wouldn't be glad enough to collect a just debt due them? I wish you, your-self, had been through that God- - awful storm and that wreck, Mister, ( do wish It now!" Minnie played her trump card DOW. "How many Greatways slaves you got now, Mr. Dawes? How many horses? Maybe it's slipped your mind that that detail was very clear-ly stated by Mr. Terraine. He said, 'so help me, I'll bet all my posses-sions, saving my daughter, my slaves, and my horse-fles- on this race between Lancer and Thunder Boy.' Lancer and Thunder Boy, mind you. Them two horses was the im-ported racers in the original bet. Later, when Mr. Terraine an' all the rest of us thought that Lancer had gone down aboard the Tem-pore, Mr. Terraine picked up a fur-ri- n horse named Black Jig, an' Mr. Dawes put the screws on Mr. Ter-raine and forced him to follow this same bet through, against his own better Judgment and that of the country-side- , since 'twas a well-know- n fack that Black Jig was an unsound beast!" citement. "That's what it do mean, don't it?" "Under the somewhat peculiar cir-cumstances, and in view of the fact that Jarrod Terraine is certainly not able to reimburse her for the horse, I should opine, and do hereby de-cree, that since the horse was clear-ly his at the time of the wreck which preceded the race, It now be-longs to Lark Shannon, to have and to hold, as her true and indisputable possession, in the sight of all men." The court room rang with ap-plause as Lark rose-t- her feet and bowed. Sherry Farrington smiled across at her and her grandmother sent a message that a week from to-day she would come calling. When the crowd had melted away after many congratulations LarkL said, "Oh, Gait, he's ours. Really ours, now!" The scarlet leaves danced and whirled on the floor of the turn pike. Lark had closed the shutters of the toll-gat- e house and locked them tight against the prying wind. She had lit a Are of pine chips and filled the blue stoneware bowls with bittersweet and Michaelmas daisies. The simple furniture was scrubbed and oiled, the pewter shined and the cups and napkins were laid out. . . . And it was only nine o'clock in the morning. Seven hours before Madame Farrington could possibly come to call! Cupsie was churning in the dairy shed. She called. "Buttah done come, Miss Lark, you tole me say so when buttah comes." Lark laid aside the bowl of d fox grapes she was pick-ing over, and went through the dog-trot from the kitchen to the shed. The boards here were white from scrubbing, clean-smellin- g and pun-gent with the faint fragrant sourness of butter-cream- . "See. honey?" Cupsie pulled up the long wooden dasher, with its blue-whit- e patterns lacing its smooth brown length. Clusters of butter flakes clung to the plunger in gran-- ; ules and rosettes. "Don't churn so fast, Cupsie, you're slopping the cream out!" j 'Yas'm." Cupsie looked out of the big square window to the ten-acr- e lot where her newest swain was turning over the lumps of rich brown Virginia loam. The plaint of a mel-ancholy song came to them. . . , ; "Lawd Jesus, lissen to de lam's the sharp hi-- of the other field hands when an unwary rabbit darted from its haven in the sur-rounding scrub, was caught, whirled around the Negro's head, and slung into a pile, dead, ready for the fry-pa- n, come suppertime. "Dem niggahs shore has a mira-tion for Marse Gait," Cupsie said tentatively. "You're slopping that good cream," Lark said briefly. "You'se sorter edgy, ain't ye?" Cupsie asked companionably. "Ain't no need to be scairt of Ma'am Far-rington. I'se bin up to de quarters "We remember the race," Judge ob Sheriden an' kin tell ye all about Tavner said. "Most of us here to-day witnessed it." "You know the beast broke down In the stretch," Minnie continued, "but Squire Terraine, being a sport-ing gent of the first water, paid the price. And that price didn't Include borse-fles- b. What I want to know, snd this court wants to know. Is how many horses of Squire Terraine I you got in your stables this min-ute Mr. Dawes?" Minnie fired the question point-blan- k at Plascutt. Plascutt said hastily. "Judge Tav-Be- r this woman has nothing in writ-In- g to bear out her statement. The agreement be-tween wager was a personal me and Jarrod Terraine. I see no reason to n the points covered in the bet. That it was made and carried out in good faith I think has been proven by past events. Because I did not wish to advantage as winner, I press my Terraine to make allowed Jarrod what disposition he chose of his slaves and his horses." Minnie said. "That man's twistin Tavner honest to the truth. Ben Terraine . down-rig- h God, he is. Jarrod Lancer (Red claim was that we call him) could beat Tender Boy. And that's what hap-pened, sin' it?

"I'm not interested," Larn said. "Cupsie, mind your churning. Don't let me have to speak to you again!" "No, ma'am." Cupsie was com-pletely unperturbed. "Ye bettah let me fix you up a bit o lunch, Miss Lark, an' take time fur a lay-dow- n to settle yoah tempah. Ye gonna crimp yo' haih, ain't ye? Ma'am Farrington's got sharp eyes.

Ole Ma'am Farring-ton laugh hersel' into a fit, goin home from drinkin' a dish ob tea wid a gal wld straight hair." "I can't help it if she does, and what's more, Cupsie, I don't believe she does. She told me Mistress Dawes had caught her in the barn, dosing the horses. She's not a fan-cifie- d old lady at all." "Sometimes she is, an' sometimes she ain't," Cupsie said judiciously. "She kin be plain as Satan's old heel when she wants to, but when dey have a ball up at Sheriden she decks herself up in lace spetiskirts an' emerai's an' di'mon's an' all. Dat's what I hear tell. She got a' eye for a han'som gent too, spite o' being one foot in de grabe. I heerd she tole some one Marse Gait wua de bes' lookin' young mister-somebod- y she's seen for a coon's age."

(TO BE CuNTTNUHD) She lit a Bre of pine chips. every Intention of bringing them up and explaining them to the Jury. Mr. Dawes, It Is now in order for your lawyer to plead. . . ." Mr. Dawes' lawyer spoke with great conviction but apparently made little impression on the jury who had already been prejudiced against his client After he had finished, the judge sent the sergeant for a certain vol-ume and studied it for some mo-ments. Minnie said, "Read it aloud, Ben. We'd all like mighty much to hear just what it says." The judge cleared his throat and began: " '1. The salvage services must have been rendered within the juris-diction of this Admiralty. . . Minnie nodded vigorously and smiled encouragingly at Lark. "2 There must be no legal duty on the party of the salvor to render assistance.' " "All right, Ben, go ahead! Min-nie's excitement had spread to the jury, who were listening attentively. " '3. The property must have been In peril when rescued by the sal-vor.' " "It was Ben, that poor horse was fast in the quicksand and would have been a goner if Lark hadn't histed him with a spar." The ju 'e looked over his specta-cles at Lark. "That's perfectly true, ir," she said. "And lastly, the fourth point. The services must have been suc-cessful.' " Just take a look out the window, Ben and you'll see the horse hale an' 'hearty as the day he was weaned." Minnie beamed. if these conditions be satis-fle- d ' " the judge continued to quote.

Although this wealthy widow had lived alone without commu-nicating with a friend or relative for 35 years before her death in 1930, more than 26,000 alleged rel-atives from 48 states and 27 for-eign countries claimed a share of her estate. But so far, no one has received a cent. asssssss YOUR correspondent Is not among who see only greatness in the past history of sport. All games advance when greater numbers ol players take part and Improved methods are utilized In training Ud competition. But when we read and hear that the new golden age of sport, due to j j follow In the postwar boom, will far j surpass the golden age that came i after World War I, an Immediate disagreement Is hereby entered. This 'doesn't concern the greater crowds that will undoubtedly pay out more cash In sport's coming boom, but it does concern the quality of the talent the next few years will bring along. Suppose we look over a few names that featured our headlines some j twenty or twenty-fiv- e years ago 1 Baseball Babe Ruth, Rogers j Hornsby. The Ring Jack Dempsey, Oene Tunney. Golf Bobby Jones, Gene Saraxen. (Hagen got an earlier start, but he was still a big part of the show.) Polo Tommy Hitchcock-Racin- g -- Man o' War. Football Knute Rockne Rad Grange the Four Horsemen. Tennis Bill Tllden, Little Bill Johnston. What chance has the next decade to surpass this list In skill, color and crowd appeal? It might hap--i pen, of course, but the odds are the other way. Such present day stars as Joe Louis, Billy Conn and Byron Nelson were at or around the top ' some time before World War II started, and so can hardly be classed as members of the new "golden age" group who are supposed to outclass the names we have mentioned. WHO CAN EQUAL THESEf Will any ball players come along to pass Babe Ruth's home run reo-or-d to pack ball parks that had, in many places, been drawing from 800 to 1200 spectators? Will any ball player come along to average above .400 for four consecutive years, as Hornsby did? Will any golfer come along to equal Bobby Jones grand slam, or hold the high average Oene Sarazen has carried for twenty-fou- r seasons? Will a better polo player than Tommy Hitchcock report or a greater tennis player than Bill Til-- i den? Or what new heavyweight will take over the show who has the ring appeal that Jack Dempsey knew In his seven years reign? All In all that bunch of a will be hard to outclass as we look at the picture. The new golden age will first have to depend largely upon stars estab--j lished before Germany and Japan decided to split the world like an apple and not even leave a core. This would have to Include such well known names as Joe Louis, Byron Nelson, Ted Williams, Bob Feller and a few otherB. After this ' we get a long list from baseball and football stars on the pro side who ' were called by Army and Navy when they were barely starting i their Invasions of fame's kingdom. STARS AMONG VETERANS In spite of valuable years they have lost on the field, many of these will return and scrap their way Into, coming headlines. But the majority of the new stars will have to come from the millions of kids now under eighteen, plus the roll-ca- from some 11,000,000 servicemen who have been taught many games they never had the chance to know before at close range. There is no doubt the fact that the general average of skill will soon be well above the average we knew twenty years ago. And that Is what counts heavily. There will be new records especially In distance races ae we go out after the flying Swedes. We will have a far greater num-ber of participants, also deeply Im-portant, In every sport. And these will all play to record-breakin-crowds, as Belmont showed the way last week with Its 57,000 human sardines hurling well over $4,000,000 Into the mutuel's maws. There will be a far greater mass of competitors to call upon. But that first golden age Is still some-thing to outclass Ruth, Dempsey, Jonee, Tilden, Man o' War, Grange, Hitchcock and the others mentioned. For In addition to their skill and power they also had incredible flares of color and crowd appeal. In the main their names were known around the world. In addition to Louis and Nelson, Williams and Feller, the new golden age should lay claim to the Army and Navy football teams of 1945. The two great squads directed by Red Blaik and Swede Hagberg have the chance to be rated among the best any colleges have ever known including Notre Dame, Minnesota, Michigan and Southern California. Unfortunately they haven't the competition known before the war, but this Isn't their fault. Whatever happens, the next few years In sport will be something to watch and follow, possibly the oiost Interest-ing decade that any crowds have ever known. THE ONE TOP MAN We have often heard various flights of oratory about the beet ball player or the most valuable ball player through the war era-Man-y names have been mentioned, including those who were not called to war service, for various end official reasons which in no sense reflect upon the ball player. But when you complete your ex-cavations and get down to what Is technically known as rock bottom, there Is only one answer. His name is Hal Newhouser, the willowy left hander of Detroit's Tigers who won 29 ball games last season. |
