Frank stepped behind his Impro
vised barricade of stones and drew
his weapon. The stones across the
road would stop the car he was sure
unless the driver elected to crash
througn.
; If the driver suspected he was
being stopped he might make the
attempt: it did not matter whether
the car was the one he awaited or
some stranger. The driver's res Hon
seeing an armed man watting on
the other side or the barricade
would be the name. ;
He withdrew to the side and
crouched belUnl a larger boulder.
Headlights glared from behind the
neurest turn. The engine roared
spasmodically as the car lurched
over the une-en road-bed.
Frank could not discover the car's
make or condition behh.d thd daz

proached the ro ks strung across (be
road: he beard the springs squeak
their prolest at the Jouncing. Brakes
squealed. A iat within the car
called somethlnt unintelligible. He
heard the ratchet ot the hand-brake
click.
As the driver's door opened he
saw suddenly that this was the tan
car that had crashed Janice Kent's
motor nt the Hollywood Intersection
three nig' t before. Now, however.
the top was up and the slde-curtalns
fastened. He arose from behind his
boulder and leaped rorward. .'

tug of the passing bullet at the side
of his coat. The driver's hand was
thrust within his coat lapel. Before
ho could withdraw It, Frank swung
his pistol forward, -t
The heavy barrel met the forehead
of tho other. The driver lurched
backwurd against a tender. Grahams
swung and dropped to his Itnoesi
Again the gun trom within the car
roared.
Frank threw up tho muzzle or his
weapon aud flrod at the flash. A man
cried out; there was the -.long of
metal. A door struck tlnnlly against
the side ot the car.
Springing to his foot, Frank tore
at tho rear door or the car. He Jerked
it open, twlsled slfewnys and thrust
his gun within. Instantly he saw that
the two opposite doors were open.
Through tho other rear door he saw
two men clawing up the short em
bankment. The one to the left thrust up his
hand gripping at a road post. It was
black-spotted with blood. As he
watched, the other, a smaller man,
drew blniseir oreel upon the top or
the hank. His faco was in prolile.
Tho nose was disproportionately
large, n hooked beak of a nose, preda
tory ond vullurlne. Frank's ri.p lin
ed: his trigger finger contracted
slightly. He did not lire, but shook
his head to throw off the confusing
mist the clasli tad induced. He
dropped his arm: he peered Into the
ilurk roeess of tho tonneau.
J inlco Kent was tboro. Her face

The clolh about her mouth

Setting her upon the ground he saw

She swayed toward him. For a dis

against him; her hands gripped the

"Janice!" he muttered a little
hoarsely. ". . . you all right?"
llor cheek seemed to press his

Nearby n masculine voice spoke
anxiously. "Sho all right, Frank!

Sharply Janice Kent withdrew

toward the volco. Wlnslow stood In
