Mrs. Jackson was ter ribly hurt, and when Jim came home she told him what had hap pened and ' what Ben bad said. Jltn Was sorry for what had hap pened, and he blamed himself for being- careless, but he was angry that Ren should talk like that to his wife. So he was mad, madder than a hornet. . .He struck out for Ben's house without his supper. What those two neighbors said and did would not be nice to tell. The outcome of the matter was that they parted bitterest enemies, . vowing they I would never speak to one another again, and threatening each other If ' either ever set foot on the other's land. So Jim Jackson took down his half of the fence ad moved it over, to his own side of the line Just clear of the line. Ben Laidlow did the same with his end of the line fence. But neither one would Join fences with the other, they each built their own fence for the rest o fthe distance on his side of the line. So there they were, two fences a few feet apart, running back from the highway, so : that every one who drove by could see two lines of fence with a foot or two between. The people called it 'The Devil's Lane." It was a sort of ''Mo-Man's-Land" between to ar mies, for Ben threatened he would hoot Jim if ever he was found over the line, and Jim re taliated with a threat to do even worse than that to eBn in case be got over the line on, Jim's place. It was foolish. Nobody was ben efited. Both suffered. Neither gained anything. The families of the two were annoyed and hurt.' In-feeling came Into the neigh borhood, for wherever . the F two men went there was always the had spirit and strife, and they would not speak to each other. Ton think men would have better sense. Jim Junior and Ruth Laidlow quarrel mt-erlit. nakewin sn were school mates. Before the quarrel they had been very good friends. Now they left a coldness and lack of sympathy, not because of anything they had said or done but because of their f athera quarrel. ; After a few years, daring which the young people had grown up and finished their. schooling. Jim Jackson moved to the city leaving Jim, Jr his only, heir In charge of the f farm. Ruth Laldlow's mother had died when Ruth ; was a tiny baby. And now Ben Laidlow suddenly died leaving Ruth ' at heir to the estate. At the funeral service, Jim Jackson was seen to come In and stand for a. moment looking ' down In the face of his old friend and enemy. 7 Those who ' saw , him said th t looked like death' Itself as Is stood there trembling. : A neigb bor lead hlmaway silently. Not a worf was spoken. After the fnn erar service Jim Jr., and. Rotor were seen walking down the road together toward . the old farms.
