An enemy In the prang: prevents Fair from helping the girl. CHAPTER I Continued Go Ahead opened the envelope and It seemed to afford him some cause for astonishment. Be glanced at Green, then read the letter jover again, word by word, from the (beginning. It read as follows: "Mr. G. A. Morton, "Mortonvllle, Va. "My Dear Sir: "I never had the pleasure of meet-'In- g yon, even in the old days, thirty lyears ago, while I lived not so very ;far from yon in Virginia. There is no doubt, therefore, that my writing at this late day will astonish you. I can lonly hope that you will receive my letter with less reluctance than that ;wlth which I write it. "Some fifteen years ago, while ranching in California, my next-doo- r , nnd myself quar. ;iielghbor, Jim reled with the agents of the Southern Pacific railway and shot two of them. We shot in but we couldn't prove It; and as the railway was in those days we had to run. "As you probably will remember, your cousin, Venable Morton, who had been farming In Misgoarl, left about that time for California by wagon, .with his wife and daughter, lie came expecting to join ine; and a letter frorr him, arriving on the very day of the shooting, said that he was about to set out across the Mohave desert. "So Jim and I tried to meet him to arrange for him to look out for our ranches till it was safe for us to come back. "We did meet him, but only in time to see him die. He'd lost his way In the desert. Uis wife was dead when we found him; and he didn't live long. .Before he died he handed over his daughter to me and begged me to send her to you. She was In pretty good shape; I guess the parents had gone without to save ber. "I promised to send her; but for a ,long time I couldn't. The railroad detectives kept too close on my heels. At last Jim left, swearing that he wouldn't lug a kid any farther. I kept her; I had gotten too fond of her by then to abandon her. "That was flfteeD years ago. TodayI blush to say It I am head of a band of outlaws and the child is She has been eighteen years old. brought up In my household In the biding place In the hills.

"But now she Is no longer n child She is a woman and I can no longer protect her.

P.ut he Is older even than I am and Stella hates lilm fo I said No; and relntlons are lit rained.

Reproduction vestigated the subject, that the Fort flag was a tricolor of red, white and blue stripes, and not red and white stripes with a blue field upon which appeared stars. In fact so far as documentary evidence Is concerned, there Is no mention of star?, so thu it now seems certain that the Fort Stanwlx flag was neither the "first 'Stan and Stripes to face the enemy," nor the "first Stars and Stripes to be hoisted over an American fort."
