Page Eight THE BANNER-COURIER, OREGON CITY, OREGON THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1922. Periwinkle House By Opie Read Illustrated by R. H. Livingstone Copjriaht. Iha Ball Syndicate. Ins. 8YNOPSI8 CHAPTER I-The time Is the late '60s or early '70s and the scene a steamboat on the Mississippi river. All the types of the period are present and the floats ing palace is distinguished by merriment, dancing and gallantry. There are the customary drinking and gambling also. Virgil Drace, a young northern man. Is on his way south on a mission of revenge. He meets an eccentric character in the person of one Liberty Shottle, who is constantly tempting the goddess of chance. They form a singular compact. CHAFTSSii, IT. Drace gets nis mina oil his mission by entering Into deck sports in which he exhibits an unusual athletic prowess. Liberty Shottle is again un lucky at cards and attempts a financial negotiation with Drace. The latter, see ing an opportunity to use Shottle, con fides to him that his mission Is to find a certain ex-guerrilla, Stepho la Vitte, ' who had murdered Drace's father. It is his determination announced to his new chum, to hang La Vifte as hi?h as Haman. Drace has become enamored of a mysterious beauty aboard the boat CHAPTER HI. The steamer reaches New Orleans, at that time in the some what turbulent throes of carpetbag gov ernment Shottle becomes possessed of two tickets for the French ball, a great society event, and proposes that Drace accompany him to the affair. The young men attend and Drace unexpectedly meets the girl who had fired his heart aboard the steamer. She is accompanied by one Boyce, whose proprietary interest indi cates that he Is her fiance. Through stratagem Shottle leams that the name of the girl is Nadine la Vltte and that her companion of the evening Is the man who is seeking to marry her. CHAPTER IV. Drace -passes an uneasy night torn by the suspicion that Nadine is the daughter of old Stepho la Vitte, now an admitted outlaw. Now, more than ever, is he resolved to find where the girl lives and to find Stepho. Drace and Shottle begin a search of the city. In one of their nocturnal pilgrimages they come upon a mob intent upon hang ing a poor wretch from the limb of a tree. It Is a typical carpetbag execution and aroused the resentment or an oppos ing mob of citizens. Drace takes a hand In the fight which starts and Is Instru mental in preventing the execution. From a window opposite the scene, he catches a glimpse of one he is sure is Nadine. CHAPTER V. The escapade, the fight, the interference with the execution get Drace and Shottle Into bad standing with the authorities, but Instead of punish ment are given until the next day to board a steamer bound north. Returning to the house where he thought he had glimpsed the girl, Drace finds the place abandoned. Through Colonel Josh, an emissary employed at the suggestion of Shottle, he gets a faint clue In the dis covery that a certain Frenchman, a wine dealer. Is reported to be an intimate of Stepho la Vitte. There Is only a short time before the departure of the steamer when Drace and Shottle go to call on the Frenchman. The latter Is too keen to be Inveigled Into giving up any Infor mation, but Shottle, spying around among the casks and bottles, especially the ar ticles ma.V up for shipment, makes an Important discovery. So as not to arouse the suspicions of the Frenchman, he casually rji-aws Drace away from the place and onto the steamer. On board he Informs Drace that one of the cases was addressed to Stepho la Vitte at Far num'B Landing. Mississippi. It Is the next stop below Bethpaere's Landing and Col onel Bethpage is Liberty Shottle's uncle. CHAPTER VI. Drace and Shottle are received with genuine hospitality by Colonel Bethpage and find the planta tion and its environs delightful. After a brief stay and a characteristic financial transaction with the colonel, Shottle goes awav ostensibly on a business trip to Vicksburg, but in reality to seek his favorite form of amusement. Drace makes the - plantation his headquarters . and from pieces of information gathered from various sources, becomes convinced that La Vitte has a haunt in a great wood of cypress and a tangle of salt cedar, a sort of everglades, a marsh with hundreds of knoll islands rising here and there among the bayous. A shrewcrold negro had told him that the outlaw lived in a house built of periwinkle sheila.' Day after day Drace takes a canoe and goes farther and farther into the moss hanging wilds. At his feet lies a rope, one end of it a hangman's noose. CHAPTER VII. Drace penetrates In to the wilderness, discovers Periwinkle House and finds Nadine alone. She Is much alarmed and warns him her father will shoot him. He makes love to her and to get him to go she agrees to meet him asrain the following Thursday. On his way .home Drace is accosted by three men who ask to be set across the river. Thej overpower him and bind him with ropes. Led by Tony they throw Drace into an old cabin. Tony taunts Drace and avows his love for Nadine, while the others collect fuel. Tony sets fire to the cabin and the three go off laugh ing. And then his bonds are cut and with Nadine's help he gets safely out She tells him how she was led to come to his rescue. CHAPTER VIII It was a long time before Drace found a boat to set him over to the opposite shore. It was so late when he reached the Bethpage place that he did not go. up to his room. The house was so quiet, the hounds themselves asleep, that he stole Into the garden to pass the remainder of the night on a couch In the summer house. The air was heavy with roses breathing in through the lattice, and as he straight ened out, grateful for repose, this thought came to him : "Pale they call death, but to me it will ever be red. And I have looked Into Its red countenance, and was not afraid. I thank God that He gave me that strength. . . But what a melodrama !" At the breakfast table, Tycle, with mother tenderness, upbraided Drace for sleeping out for fear of arousing the house. Afterward Drace and the General strolled out under the trees. "By the way," the General said pres ently. "I have an engagement to de liver an address before a teachers', meeting in Natchez, and I should much like to have you bear me company. We can leave this evening on the Black Hawk and reach there early in the morning," "I'd like very much to go," answered Drace. "But can we get back before Thursday?" "Easily by Wednesday morning.. Anything Important for Thursday?" "Oh, no. An old fellow down at the ferry wants me to go fishing with him Thursday, and I gave him my word that I'd be on hand. Most remarkable old man, full of fun; quite a charac ter." "You must mean old Spence. But are you sure It is not that pretty daughter of his that attracts you? You'llhave to be a. Uttlecareful. my son. We may associate with men out of our social - running, but not with womin.'. . . Ah, Tycle! Mr. Drace has Just consented to give me his com pany to Natchez." The Black Hawk's band played a welcome, and the captain came down the plank to conduct the General on board. From a quiet, lazy and almost deserted landing the place leaped Into the full throb of life. Negroes and shiftless whites came from their hovels to gaze upon the magic splendor of this Journeying palace, and the three shell man stepped ashore to gather up dollars. .' Dinner was a stats occasion, and after it, the ball. Then ineir state rooms then morning, and Natchez. The address was to be delivered In the afternoon, and when the time came the General led him over to the hall to hear the speech. Imprisoned him with out ball in a corner, and there he had to sit. The address was long, academic and dull, and the sufferer mused: "I don't see why Shottle ever called you a remarkable character." Everybody came about the General to take his hand. Young women told him that they had never been so thrilled. Drace lied to him, too, swore him an orator. "Let us walk off alone,", said the General. Slowly they walked at first, but after a time the old gentleman struck a brisker pace, toward the River. "Now, my boy, as we've got through with those beaters of dust out of old carpets, w'll have some fun. Old Colonel Pemherton wanted me to go home with him, anil he has a delight ful house, a gracious wife and hand some daughter, but I had to decline. I've stood about as much now as I can. We'll go . down to old Tobe Ma son's tavern, under the hill. Tobe is a gentle old fellow, never killed but three men. One of them shot Tobe's leg off and now he wears a peg ; and I want to tell you that when he un straps It and hops around In a fight, he's right meddlesome. At a trial In the courthouse here not long ago, the Judge issued an order that all deadly weapons must be left with the deputy sheriffs at the door and sir, they made old Tobe take off his wooden leg." ' The tavern was as tough a place as river men could make it. Built of logs, bricks, stone and clapboards, It looked like an architectural stagger, trying to climb the hill. In the main room was the bar. Herein Tobe gave his famous 'possum feasts and dances, when the spirit of liquor mounted high enough to swing its partner off the ground.- "Well, I'll be knocked In the head for a steer !" old Tobe cried out, stump ing toward the General. "I haven't seed you since the Elver tuck fire. Well, well! Thlnkln' about you the other day. . . . Glad to shake your hand, Mr. Drace. Set right down." "Tobe, Tm glad to see you," said the General. "And fetch us about two quarts of that summer-grape wine. Let me tell you about It, Drace. We have a wild grape here that gets ripe along In August. It's much larger and Is not sour like the fox-grape, and Its vine likes to climb about a sassafras sap ling. And then you see an umbrella of grapes. Now don't say a word till you've had a good taste of It. Tobe makes It himself, and he'll fetch us some that's at least twenty-five years old. Here we are." The wine was as red as blood, cool and yet warm. Its flavor was the rip ened sweetness of the spirit of autumn, it was as mellow as. the scent of the apple at harvest time. "What do you think of It, hey?" "Uncle Howard, are you sure that this was not made by Bacchus Instead of Tobe?" "Good, my boy I Enjoying yourself?" "Yes, I'm doing fine, General. You see, I can't express myself as well as you can. I haven't as much to draw from. You've not only book-knowledge but experience, worth more so cially than all the libraries In the world." '- "You hit It off well. But what Is better than It all? Moral freedom. This . table here Is rough, with one rheumatic leg slightly drawn; these chairs we sit In, bottomed with strips of hickory bark, would be scorned at a sheriffs sale ; but sir, Mark Antony, In his first triumph, his chariot drawn by Hons, was not more regal than we are at this moment,, enthroned and sceptered with moral freedom. Pour out, for as that same Antony said: 'Scant not my cups.' Tobe, where's that old scoundrel who used to play 'The Arkansaw Traveler1?" Tobe stumped his way over from the bar. "You mean old Slithers?" "That's the man. What's become of him?" "NothlnV And I reckon he's playln right now down at Cadman's Joint, that ought to be wiped off the earth. Want him?" "Need him, Tobias. Send a boy after him." Old Slithers, bald and wrinkled, came with his home-made fiddle. The General greeted him warmly, Intro duced him to Drace ; and the most comfortable chair In the house provid ed him, he sat down to play the fa mous old tune and to recite the di alogue, Improvising where his memory failed him. The General roared his delight, said that he would go on the stand to swear against Sour Socrates In favor of the fiddler's dialogue. "Tobe," he shouted, "fetch In the buck-and-wlng dancers." Tobe went to the door, yelled as If calling hogs ; and In came two big ne groes, a throng of Idlers following them. At It they went, shaking the house, and when weariness threatened to seize them, for refreshment they drew off, and leaping, butted their heads together like goats. After a time the General gave them a dollar apiece, dismissed them gave the fiddler five, with an order to play that old tune again. Old Tobe was now lighting his evening lamps. The General called to him. " "Toby, what have you for supper?" The old fellow closed one eye. ' iiyhat have T gntr he y Ah.' Old Slithers, Bald and Wrinkled, Came With His Home-Made Fiddle.' that's it. An' I'll "tell youi Fve "got hoe-cake and roasted doves." "No, you don't mean It !" "Hoe-cake and roasted doves, I said.'' "Good, by Gideon's Band. Fetch us, Tobias. And mark you, along with It all bring about a trowel full of that wild plum Jelly. The doves and the strips of bacon and the hoe-cake and the Jelly came on, and arising the General saluted the repast "Tilk about quail I Quail, sir, Is In sipid, white, dry and tasteless com pared with the dark richness of the dove. And look at this bread, made of mealed pearl. You never tasted any bacon like that, my son, fed on acorns . showered down from Olympus. ... The sweet of the night 1" They had finished the meal and were sitting back, smoking, sipping wine, when Drace noticed a sudden change in the General's countenance, a tight ening, a grlmness; and turning about, he saw standing against the wall a strange figure a man not tall, but broad of shoulder, his body" sloping llthely down to feet expressively of sinewy restlessness. His mass of hair was like tangled flax straw, dark and yet gray. Like the bristles of a wild boar, his short mustache stuck out and his heavy eyebrows looked like great hairy caterpillars crawling across his lower forehead. In his dress there was a wild touch, a barbaric aspect. Slowly he came forward. "This is General Bethpage, heh?" "That Is my name, yes. What do you want with me?" "Whut I want; heh? I come to 'pol oglze to think them mule be mine." "Well, go on away. I don't want any apology from you." "No? You put pistol at me. That was In Louisiana. This Is Mlssissip'. An' I tell you here you haf turn' car petbagger." "What! If General Andrew Jack son should arise out of his grave and tell me that, do you know what I would say to him?" "You would beg hees pardon as you will mine, heh?" "I would say to him as I now say to you : You are an Infamous liar." Drace sprang between them and seized the man by the wrist; a dirk fell from his hand. "Stand back, General," cried Drace. "There is not going to be a fight here. Stand back, Tobe I" The dark-faced man looked Drace In the eye. "Monsieur was ver' strong. But I see him some other day." Turning, the fellow made off. "Now, who the devil was that?" asked Drace. ' "That, my dear Drace," replied the General, "was the fellow you asked about the other day Stepho la Vitte." To Drace this encounter with Stepho la Vitte, the father of the girl he loved and the outlaw upon whom he had sworn to wreak vengeance was disturbing indeed. The General, how ever, was not at all upset by the fact that he had been barely saved from Stepho's knife, and when a short time later they boarded the Bumblebee on their return, he gripped Major Pewltt's hand and said: "Major, Mr. Drace and I have in our precious possession three quarts of old Tobe's wild grape." "Ha which Is as much as to say that you have three quarts stewed out of the heart of Venus. I'll find Haw klnswnd the four of us will gather In (Continued on page 10) NOTICES OF ROAD MEETING (Continued from page 7.)
