CHAPTER L
" H e 's the gallantcst olil fellow. It
makes me fairly heartsick to know hit
ease is hopeless. ’ ’
Mr. Hildreth said it, looking with
eompossiouaUi eyes after his departing
client. His partner, Major Vance, half
turned in his swivel chair, gave an ex
tra long pull at his pipe and said over
the top of “ Oreenleaf on Evidence:”
“ W h y let it Is: hopeless? Isn’t it your
business and mine to persuade one very
bad man or twelve good and true ones
that the right is always with our side?"
“ Certainly, but in this case I should
have to persuade them to go against law
and fact in order to do what I believe to
be right,” Mr. Hildreth said, making
himself horizontal by putting his heels
upon his desk and tipping his chair ns
far back as possible. Again Major Vance
spoke through his blue veil.
“T ell me all about it
Your client
looked as though he came out of the ark.
Has he got a claim for damages against
Noah et al. ? Or is it a mutter of line
fences?”
“ Neither.
You must have heard all
about it It’s one of our celebrated cases
— the Overton claim. ”
“ W hat! Is that the man who has been
a legal gold mine these last 50 years?”
“ The very same— Francis Overton,
Esq. N o better blood in the state. ’ ’
“ Tell me about the claim. O f course
I'v e heard of it nebulously. I ’d like to
know the story of it with circumstantial
exactness. ’'
“ It’s a pitiful one, and my father a l
ways insisted begun in a romance back
in Carolina. He knew both the Over-
tons and Fauntleroys there. The heirs
of each house, it seems, fell in love with
the same young woman— an heiress and
great belle*— who preferred young Over-
ton. If the other man swore vengeance
•gainst his successful rival, nobody ever
heard of it, but everybody knew that
the warm friendship once existing be
tween the two families was utterly dead.
In fact, it was felt to be a good thing
when, a few years after his wedding,
young Overton moved with all his be
longings to middle Tennessee.
“ Here he prospered amazingly. Com
ing in when pretty well all the state lay
virgin, he bought half a county of the
richest land at a price that was next to
nothing.
Besides he got possession of
the best ore banks in the state, and as
soon as he bad got a fair sized planta
tion open, set about building furnaces
and making iron. He was essentially a
man of big enterprises, one who did
nothing on a small scale. Into this new
venture he put a deal of money— the
most of it, unluckily for him, not his
own. There were half a dozen blast fu r
naces, a forge, a rolling mill, heaven
knows what besides, but if the money
weut out in a stream it looked to be
certain that it would como in in a flood.
Indeed my father always maintained
that Mr. Overton went at least $50,000
in debt simply to oblige lenders who
forced their cash upon him.
For threu
years everything went well.
No man
stood so high, was rated so happy. Then
came a scat of troubles. His wife: died—
his children, all save one, the eldest boy
— my client of today. Before people
were dime talking over their funerals
there was a bigger sensation.
Peyton
Fauntleroy's attorney had come out from
North Carolina and laid claim to all the
iron laud in Mr. Overton’s possession.
Though he lauglusl the claim to scorn,
it made a fine how-d'ye-do among part
ners and creditors. They clamored tor
an explanation. He answered by buying
out or paying each one in full, though
to do it stripped him of everything but
the property in dispute. That was a for
tune if he held it. A t the trial people
waited on tiptoe for the outcome of it

“ But my father would never take a

Fauntleroy’s man got up first
and said that his client claimed the land
under government entry at such a date,
to be established by patents and receipts
for purchase money. Mr. Overton hard

stood u ;i saying to the judge as though
the whole thing bored him, ’I f your

was just two years earlier. ’
” ’H — in ,” said the judge.
'You
must make your statement on oath. ’
W h ile Mr. Overton was being sworn his

didn't look at them. The other man
passed up his di euinent*.

Fauntleroy Bnt when oourt was over, as
my father was helping Mr. Overton
from the room, the judge came to them
and «aid: ‘I know it's your land, sir.
Appeal, appeal, and by the Eternal I

“ That broku Mr. Overton all up. He

— he was just turned 17— swore to
avenge and vindicate the dead man if it
took all his life. Though of all his fa
ther’s fortune there w as not enough left
to bury him, the son was not badly off.
His mother’s money was held in trust
for him, and there was more to come
from a rich bachelor great uncle.
“ The Overton claim has swallowed
nearly all of it, for, you see, these
things came to pass more than 50 years
ago, before you and 1 were born.
Through all these years the tight has
been kept up. The absence of the records
has made that possible. Lacking them,
neither claimant can perfect his title to
this great property. Fauntleroy got pos
session under bond after the first decree,
but it profited him next to nothing. He
lacked money to develop it, and nobody
had faith enough in him or his case to
risk a dollar in his hands.

lift their eyes, intimating that the elder
Overton was ‘struck down’ for false
swearing, as well ¡is that some things in
the life of his son are ’a judgment' for
the assertion of an nnjnst claim.
“ To me ho is the most heroic, the
most pathetic figure I ever knew. This
struggle to set his father right has risen
from a dnty to a religion— one, too,
wh'ch. unlike most religious, comes be

“ Quite, save in two most impossible

“ What are they?"
“ He must find tho missing voltune of

CHAPTER II.
Seventy years, full of trouble though
they were, sat lightly on Francis Over-
ton. He walkisl away from his lawyer
with a masterful step, though his head
drooped a little, and his eves wen: full
of speculation— so fnll indeed that he
took no note of two other men, who look
ed hard at him from an ailjacvnt street
corner.
When he had vaulted upon his tall
black horse and gone away at a sw ing
ing lope, one said low to the other:
“ That's your man. Tongh old nut,
isn’t he, to be riding that gait at rising
70?”
Tho speaker was an elderly man.
suing faced, thongh not quite ill look
ing, with narrow, light eyre; a square
ja w and close clipped bnllet head; well
dressed, well groomed, yet giving with
al some suggestion of nnderbreeding.
The other was taller by a half head,
lithe, slim, with an oval face t¡mill'll to
healthy brown and lit by two clear, con
vincing gray eyes. Every line, every mo
tion told of strength and suppleness, the
muscular perfectness of the early twen
ties. His hair, just long enough to show
a hint of ripple, was of the warm brown
that eatchos gold of the sun, the same
son which had burned to an ashen shade
the drooping mustache that hid a firm,
well cut mouth.
Altogether you would go far before
seeing a better specimen of the genus
gentleman. He looked intently after the
vanishing figure, and as it was lost to
view said "H awkins, I like his looks, so
much so indeed that I have three parts
of a great mind to give up the whole
thing. ’’
A lightning scowl drew together
Hawkins' brows, but he was wise enough
to mask it and say interrogatively:
“ What? I didn't quite catch what you
said. ”
For a minute the other was silent
Then he said, not load, bat dropping his

much more than I have been taught to

“ Oh, nobody ever said a word against
him. N o doubt he believes all he says;
took his father's word for gospel truth.
Clearly he is a victim of circumstances
and his own bull headedness. That’s
w hy we, our side, thought of this com
promise. ” Hawkins returned hurriedly,
jumbling one word on another as if to
prevent further speech of his comrade.
Tilt* younger man looked at him hard
as he asked, "O n your honor, now, do
you believe a compromise possible?”
The other broke out with impatience
that he tried vainly to smother in suav

A gopher snake at Escoi^Udo has been
the cause of much earnest discussion
among local naturalists recently.
I he
question discussed was, “ Do feuakes
Charm or Hypnotize Their Prey.'“ One
of the naturalists had the unusual but
fortunate experience at Escondido of
happening upon a large gopher snake
just as the reptile was about to over
come a trembling cottontail rabbit and
envelop the animal in its deadly coils.
For some time the naturalist watched
the snake’s movements.
It was within 10 or 12 inches of the
apparently fascinated rabbit. Silently
and almost imperceptibly the snake had
wormed its way nearer and nearer to
its victim. Its eyes glistened with an
intense brightness. Not a movement did
it make which might alarm tbe timid
rabbit. The forked tongue, which to the
eye of a human being is so repulsive
and intended to be terrifying, appeared
to exert an entirely different influence
upon the mind of the inntjeent rabbit.
This darting tongue either excited the
victim’s curiosity or caused the animal
to bo concentrate its mind on the snake’s
tongue as to throw that mind iuto a
hypnotic condition of such strength that
it could not break the spell and run
away from impending death. The forked
tongue darted out of the snake's mouth
almost as regularly and rapidly as the
needle of a sewiug machine rises and
falls in the cloth. The lithe body crept
nearer and nearer. The rabbit was mo
tionless. Its eye was fixed on the pierc
ing eye of the snake. Even the waving
of the wind kissed shrubs about the
rabbit failed to break the spell, and
softly and clowly grim death in snake
form wreathed its folds about the crea
ture. Then was the spell broken.
To the naturalist who watched the
