A new terror was injected into her heart to mingle with other fears by the bur- den of passion which his laugh re- vealed. She nodded and _ turned, starting before him. “Good!” he said. “It’s better.” And now to delay him became an objective. Kate halted in the gloom of the trail and tried to make him understand she was tired, needed respite. He jerked the gag _ free from her lips, holding a hand ready to stifle any outcry. “l’m weak! I’m tired!” she pleaded. “I'll walk as long as I can, but I must rest.” “Sit down here, then,” he said grudgingly. “I'll give you a minute. ... And I'll leave this off, if I have your word that you won’t screech.” “No! she said stoutly and the bandage again pressed her lips tightly. : As she sat on a boulder she worked her feet constantly in the trail, softly scuffing up the forest duff to attract the eye of any who ‘might come that way later. Franz ordered her on again. She obeyed reluctantly. ' “Get along!” he snapped. “Get along faster !’? Kate was stubborn. He picked her up again roughly and pressed forward, holding her unnecessarily close, and she writhed in his em- “No. Of course not.” A surge of jealousy swept into his heart. He laughed scornfully. “The idea of you falling for a squaw man!” “J don’t believe you,” she said simply. “Besides, even if I did, even if it were true, it would be beside the point. He has done so many impossible things this summer that finding you and taking you back to answer for what you did this evening should be a simple matter.” Franz slung up his pack with a grunt. ‘Devil with him!*® he muttered uneasily and glanced behind. “But we'll get on, regardless. Ill leave that gag off for a while. Screams in here won’t carry far and in return I'll expect that you'll walk faster. Otherwise...” He left that threat unfinished. ° As the stars began to fade they reached the Mad Woman, Walking through long grasses, they came to the canoe on the river bank, just below the swift water. “You stand here,’ Franz said. “He'll have one more thing to guess about, if he gets this far!” He launched duffle over in it the and, canoe, then, his shoulder, rapid, The girl waded understood Followers this sign, put track of the correct solution of this task.” TITUS him.

He stopped paddling to roll a cigarette, to consider, audibly, the matter of food. But he did not finish what he had started to say; did not complete the cigarette. Far, far behind him a fleck had appeared on the water. He broke his words short, arrested all movement and then, opening his fingers, let paper and tobacco drop to his knees. “So, now .. .

For an interval both sbhainell their eyes to observe that approaching canoe and then Franz laughed. “If it’s one, removing him is sim- ple. . . . And he growled. it looks like one!” He swung toward a point of rushes which projected from the nearest island. — The girl, gone white, now, did not speak as they glided into the screening growth. Franz drove one paddle into the bottom and hitched forward, placed the other on the opposite side of the light craft and turned to Kate. Queerly fascinated by his deliberation she watched him draw his pistol, slip out the clip and fill it to capacity. “You're going to shoot . . . from ambush?” For she asked, answer quickly in — he his arms, grasped her drawing her head tightly against his shoulder.

And after he had played the beam about the trampled landing and examined the birch he knew what had happened, even to Kate’s tortured wait, bound, helpless, Rage swept him and for the first time in his life he was shaken by the desire to maim and kill as, eanoe on his back, he plunged into the trail, trotting beneath his burden. But only man tracks were there, revealed by the shaft from his flashlight. It puzzled him. Just the man sign, indicating two trips. But on one carry he had been weighted down until he staggered and sank deeply in soft places. Then he saw where Kate had been put down for the first time and the thought that Franz had held her slender body in his arms made blood pound in his ears. It was broad daylight when he reached the Mad Woman. He followed the footprints down the branch of the trail that led to the right. They had stopped a few rods frors the water’s edge; then they had gone on and the girl had stood waiting alms Franz loaded his canoe. She had stood The indicating drawn in the still but not arrow she wet sand at him and he grinned aloud: “Good girl!” stared and idly. had up said Where Franz would elect to leave brace until he set her down.

It was as if a sledge had struck the barrel of his gun, as though hot iron seared the thumb of his left hand, and the impact set him reeling, sagging, fighting to stay in the eanoe, but, despite his efforts, pitching over sideways with a mighty splash. . The gun slipped from his right hand as the butt raked the gun- wale.

Each moment that passed added to Franz’s chances of escape,.and as for Kate ... He drew his shoulders upward in a shuddering shrug when he thought of her alone with that renegade. Ducks flew up as he slipped past the first island and on their flight pitched toward a patch of rushes off to his left. Gracefully, the ducks plummeted for it and then the leader, with a quick bank and a rise, was in full flight again, sounding an unmistakable note of warning to the others. Something was there, hidden from Drake by the rushes, which frightened the ducks. .. . Almost in a reflex Steve dropped his paddle and grasped the rifle which lay between his feet, and hitched forward, weapon poised and ready to fire. He was half-way erect when a man’s head and shoulders emerged above the rushes and a girl’s scream, sharp and clear, carried to him across the water. coming closer all the time. “Come on!” ly. “Come on . . . Franz called thick... to h—l!” And Kate was on her knees, wrenched one upended paddle from its place in the lake bottom.

The edge of the blade hit his arm, silhouetted down the sleeve to his hand, caught the if love might pistol barrel and the weapon, with a spin and plop, disappeared into the roily water.
