We finally left the stream where a windfall had smoth­ ered It. By the sense ot touch alone I found a spot clear of Itrueb and un­ dergrowth and informed my companion we must wait for daylight before pro­ ceeding. I could find no dry fuel, even bad v dared to build ft tire. “ We have water, but n t fire oor food,” I told her. “ You re wrong, mister, about food.

"Not co dreary as when we was In the cabin, waiting.” she replied. And her head rested against my shoulder and very soon I rejoiced to find she was asleep.

Near morning I dozed off and was aroused by her baud pressing lightly on my shoulder. I came to my feet nnd rubbed my legs and arms to drive out the kinks and cramps. She whispered for me to make no noise, nnd I noted she had removed the cov­ erings from the guns. "W4iut Is It?" I murmured, a te rri­ ble rage sweeping over me us I glared about to discover the relentless foe. She shook her head and said; “ I thought I beard something mov­ ing toward us." Footsteps would full softly on the wet ground, and. after listening without hearing anything, I told her: "Some animal got the scent ot us amt turned ta ll." Her small hand gripped my urm for silence. Men were coming. I heard a voice say something in the Delaware tongue. She pulled her Highland pis­ tol from her blouse ami noiselessly re moved its wrapping. Then her hand found mine und gave It a convulsive squeeze, nnd her soft voice was say lng: "Mister, you've been powerful good to me. W ere made a good tight for it. it won't be awful hard this way.

Her face showed none of the anger I hud witnessed at the Witches Head when she was menaced hy the mob. It was placid of expression, and she met my gaze wltb a little smile of encourage­ ment. We could hear them making their way along the windfall. Sudden­ ly they burst In^o view: two Indians and a white man. One ot tbe Indians uas carrying a fresh scalp fastened to the end of a short rod. I reached back and snatched the pistol from the girl's hand and cried o u t: " I f that be Christopher Gist, we are friends.” The three vanished as If by magic. After a few moments tbe white man replied: " I am Gist. Who are you? Speak sharp. My Indians are uervous." "Black Brond, returning from a scout to Duquesne. 1 have a young (rleud with me."
