Wasn't yo' sixteen an' slttin' right yere on this spot when a bullet fired from the thicket over tbar knock ed my cap Into yo'r face? Yo' remem ber all these things, Mary yo beven't forgot an 'then yo ask me why yo' an' Abe Taylor can't Jlue up. Lawd, gal, but I wouldn't bo mo' astonished if yo' struck mo a blow in the facer' See yere, pop," said the girl as she straightened up, clasped her bands over her kneo and looked away into the laurels, "twenty years ago, befo' I was bo'n, yo' got up a fuss with the Taylors." "They dun got up a fuss with me, gal." "Well, there was a fuss, it was about a mewl or a hawg or snnthln'. The Taylors an' the Renfrewa went to klllln'. Yo' dun for the old man." "Yes, I did." "An then one of bis boys dnn for our Jim." "Shot our Jim down like a dawg an' never gin him no show!" "An' then our BUI dun for one o' them." "He did, an' I'm mighty proud o' him." "An' then you git almost dun for." "That's it, gal.

The chance will cum, though -It will shorely cum. Me an' Bill will never rest easy as long aa theft a Taylor left liyln', an', tbank God, tear's only two of 'em dodgin' aroun' on top the alrtb." j The girl was silent for a moment, rocking to and fro. Then In the same quiet, even voice she said: ' "A quarrel lastln' twenty y'ars am three or fo' klllln's bekase yo" an' the old man Taylor fell out like two boys! I Yo've carried murder In yo'r heart all 1 these y'are, an' It's tbar ylt It might hev bin so with the Taylors once, but yo know they've wanted peace for five ya'rs past" "Bekase they ar cowards, gall" I "Bekase they've got sense, pop.

Thru they sat for ten minutes without fur ther speech, and the westering sun sunk to the hill tops snd blazed full in their faces and half blinded them. A sudden step caught their cars and both turned their beads to the right "Abe!" gasped the girl. 'Til kill him!" growled the man. Some one turned the corner of the house and stood In the full blase ol sunset The old man lifted hit rifle and fired over the girl's shoulder be fore she could raise a hand to prevent For a minute a smoke clond bung low and obscured the body on the ground. Then the girl said quietly: "Pop, yo've killed a man, but it's yo'r own son Bill!" The old man staggered over and knelt beside the body, and at be knelt, bis face drawn and haggard and hl breath whistling In his throat, a young man turned In from the road and halt ed close beside the girl. "Pop thought It was yo'!" whispered the girl. Abe nodded his bead. "Walt till I bundle my things an' we'll go."
