CHAPTER XIII Continued
"Because It Is to the Interest of our
people to act even more than It Is to
the Interest of the English," retorted
Do-ne-ho-ga-weh with impassioned en
ergy. "Already the English are more
numerous than we are. Thoy have
strong forts. We have ouly the forest.
Thoy have brothers across the Great
Water who will aid them. We have
only the uncurtain aid of our allies and
subject tribes.
"The decision Is In yonr hands. If
you fight for the English you will sur
vive and grow stronger. If you fight
for the French or If you do not fight
for the English, you will slowly be
crippled and In a little time you will
be no more feared tliun the Mohicans
or the Erics.
"Na-ho !" .
That was the last speech of the day,
and the council adjourned, only, as In
the case of the Senecas' tribal council,
to dissolve Into minor councils of the
roy-on-ehs of the different dim groups.
When the representatives of each
tribe had reached the unanimity which
was required by the laws of the
League, they discussed the situation
Informally with the roy-an-ehs of the
other tribes ; and on the fifth day To-do-da-ho
delivered the common Judg
ment of the roy-an-ehs.
"Murray and the Keepers of the
Doom Trail are the enemies of the
Long House. We must break them
now before they grow too powerful.
Therefore we have decided to take up
the hatchet against them. But we
shall send word to Ga-en-gwa-ra-go,
appealing to him, by virtue of the cov
enant chain between us, to support
as against the vengeance qf the
French. This Is the decision of the
Bo-yar-na-go-war, O my people."
"Yo-hay!" answered the roy-an-ehs.
And the thousands of people In the
meadow echoed the shout.
My attention was diverted to a
young Onondaga who attempted to ex
plain something to me In his dialect
Seeing I could not understand, Ta-wan-ne-ars
approached and listened to
him, a look of astonishment creasing
his usually Impassive face.
"The Onondaga says that a French
man has come to the village who
claims to have a message for you,"
translated the Seneca.
"For meT Wh6 can It be from!"
"I do not know, brother. Let as
hasten and find out"
We pushed our way through the
masses of warriors already beginning
the war-dance, and ran between the
vegetable gardens toward Ka-na-ta-go-wa.
CHAPTER XIV
The Evil Wood
We found the messenger squatting
placidly by the council-house under
the guard of several Onondagas. He
was of the usual type of courrier du
bols, but with sn unusually repellant
countenance.
"You have a tnessags for met" I
said.
"Are yon Monsieur OrmerodT be
replied In his peasant's patois.
"I am."
He examined me with a sHewlse
squint out of his shifty eyes, snd fished
with one hand In the bosom of his
filthy leather shirt.
"You will pay for the servicer he
Inquired warily. "She said you would
pay what I asked."
I took one step forward and grasped
the ruffian by the arm.
"Who! I repeated. "Tell me, U
you value your life I And give me the
message."
"No offense, no offense, monsieur,"
be growled, pulling away from me.
"MatWmolselle Murray "
"Glv to me," I Insisted. "We will
talk of pay afterward."
He reluctantly withdrew his hand
from his shirt, and offered me a folded
square of heavy paper, stained with
sweat I opened it carefully, lest It
tear, and suw these lines of fine, an
gular writing staring uie In the face:
"La Vlars du Bols. ye list Bptr., 17IS.

Stunned, I read It a second time,
then handed It to Ta-wnn ne-ars.
"What Is your nameT I asked the
messenger whilst Ta-wan-ne-ars
scanned the paper.
"liiiptiste Meurler," he said sullenly.
"Who gave you the paper?"
"Who but the madi-molNolle herself?"
"How did she buppen to choose
youT
He protruded his chest
"Who better could she select than
Baptists Meurler?" he replied. "North
pf the Lakes everyone knows Iiuiitlste
Meurler and I am not unknown to the
Iroquois."
"llut how did mademoiselle hear of
you, Baptist?"
He shrugged his shoulders.
"Who can sny? A beautiful young
person says she has a mission of much
Importance find profit to be performed,
t reply I will go anywhere for a price.
I am told I have only to name It And
so I sin here, monsieur."
"And what is your price?" I Inquired,
amused despite myself by the cool In
aoleaca of Uia scoundrel.

"Two hundred livres," he said In
stantly. "Very well. It shall be paid. You
will be detained here for a time, and
I will purchase for you a sufficient
number of beaver pelts to defray that
sum."
And, turning to Ta-wan-ne-ars, I
asked him to give the necessary In
structions to the Onondagas. The mes
senger, a look of sour satisfaction on
his cunning face, was marched off to
undergo the restraint of an unwelcome
visitor.
"Welir I said to Ta-wan-ne-ars.
The Seneca returned me the letter.
"See," he said, pointing to the wild
geese flying In pairs to the south, "the
cold weather Is coming. Illnrk Kobe
will be delayed In returning from his
visit to the Plononclnclles. And that
Is a very good thing for us, brother.
But for that I think we would be too
late."
"But we shall have fighting," I ex
claimed. "The Keepers will soon dis
cover us. and no matter how numerous
we may be they will fight desperately.
They may carry her away to Canada
before we reach La Vlerge du Bols."
"This Is true." he admitted. "And
the thought Ta-wan-ne-ars had,
brother, was that we might leave to
Do-ne-ho-ga-weh and Corlaer the break
ing of the Doom Trail whilst you and
I with a handful of warriors marched
around by the way we escaped, as the
white maiden advises In her letter.
That way Is not guarded, for none
has known It snd perhaps we may
hide In the Wood of the False Fares
and bear off the mnlden In the confu
sion of a surprise attack."
"It sounds reasonable," I said doubt
fully. "TIs preferable to trusting to
the main attack."
"There Is no other p!an," he re
joined with energy. "Now we must tell
what we have learned to Do-ne-ho-ga-weh,
and arrange our plans with him."
The Guardian of the Western Ioor
waa the center of an Immense mob of
warriors who danced around the war
post which had been planted In the
council-place.
The grim face of Do-ne-ho-ga-weh
was alight with the Joy of battle.
"Behold, O my son," he called to me,
"the warriors of the Eight Clans are
with us. Our brothers of the Turtle,
Beaver, Bear and Wolf, and our
younger brothers of the Snipe, Heron,
Deer snd Hawk, all hunger for the
scalps of the Keepers of the Trail.
"A thousand braves will follow us
on the warpath. We will give the
French s lesson. They shall see the
might of the Long House."
But the light faded from his fea
tures as Ts-wan-ne-ars told him of the
message from Marjory. A look of cold
hatred accentuated the grlmnms of
the hooked nose and high cheekbones.
"The French dog De Veulle Is wea
ried of Go-lia no," he rasped. "He has
hod enough of the red maiden. Now
he craves the white. Yes, It Is well
that my red nephew and my white son
should go against this man who knows
no laws to curb his lust I charge lot,
do not spare him."
"We will not spare him," I promised.
"Good I It ahull be as you ask, Cor
laer shall guide me to the Doom Trail.
How many warriors are to go with

We debated this point together, and
decided that for purposes of swift

Device That Combines
A field glass gun has been devised
which serves the purpose of both a
light gun and a powerful gluss. A
short barrel Is rigged between a pair
of telescopes, and s bar with a re
coll pad extends to the forehead to
take the "kick" from the discharge.
If a heuvy caliber Is used, a shoulder
stock can also be provided so that the
shooter will not suffer too great a
shock.
The telescope gun does better work
than the ordinary rlfie telescope be
cause It gives ths advantage of a pair
of binoculars and Is much lighter and
more convenient to handle. The old
rifle telescope, which bus become fair
strict our escort to twenty men. Do-ne-ho-gu-weh
approved this number.
"Do nothing, If you can help It, un
til we have beguij our attack," he said.
"If you must move without us, rely
upon flight, for you cannot hope to
succeed by flghtlng."
Our party mustered at dnwn the
next morning. It consisted of twenty
stalwart young Seneca Wolves, each
man selected by Ta wanneari for
strength and wind In addition to
their clothing and weapons each man
also carried two lengthy contrivances
of wood, with hide strips laid across
them.
"What are they for?" I asked as
Ta-wan-ne-ars presented me with a
pair and showed me how to fasten
them on my back so that the nurrower
ends stuck up over my head,
"Ga-weh-ga snow-shoes,'' he replied.
"In the wilderness, brother, the snow
lies deep, and we should sink down at
every step once the ground was cov
ered after tho first storm. You must
learn how to use the gu-wrh ga, for
otherwise you would he helpless."
We kept our purpose a strict secret,
even from the warriors of our escort
They were told no more than that they
were given an opportunity to go upon
a hatnrdous venture which should
yield them fame and proportionate
toll of scalps.
That was all they wanted to know.
Ta-wan-ne-ars was a leader they had
fought under before. I was assigned a
wholly undeserved measure of fame
because of my recent adventures In his
company.
We marched rapidly. For three days
we averaged thirty miles a day, and
each day, when we caiiqted, I practiced
with the snow-shoes on some level bit
of ground, learning how to wall with
out catching the points and tripping
mysel f.
We had not gone very far on the
fourth day when O da ws sn do, the
Otter, a warrior who had attached
himself to me, pointed through the
leafless trees toward a graylsh-whtte
bank which was rolling down upon as
from the north.
"O ge-on de-o," he snld. "It snows,"
Fifteen minutes Inter the snow be
gan to fall. Driven by a piercing wind.
It descended like a vast, enveloping
blanket, coldly damp, strangling the
breath, blinding the eyes, numbing the
muscles.
We struggled along against It until
we came to a hillside scattered with
large boulders. Here we halted and
built shelters for ourselves by roofing
the boulders with pine saplings we
hacked dnwn with our tomahawks
I'nder these, with fires roaring at our
feet we made shift to resist the cold
'The snow fell for the better part of
two days, sn thickly as to preclude
traveling, snd during that time we
dared not stir from shelter, except to
collect firewood. In the evening of
the second day the storm psssed, and
the stars shone out In sky thst was
a bard, metallic blue.
"We have lost much time, brothers."
said Ta wan ne-ars, "and we have had
a long rest Let us push on tonight."
Our progress was slowed ' consld
erably by my clumsiness on snow
shoes. But The Otter and other war
riors went to considerable pains to
help me, picking out the easiest
courses to follow, quick with hint or
sdvlce to remedy my Ignorance. I be
came proficient enough to travel at the
tall of the column, although my com
pardons could never march as rapidly
as they would have done without me
.The wilderness which wss trsversed
by the Itoom Trail was deserted he
cause of the universal Indian fear of
the False Face. Ta-wan-ne-ars and
I discussed this point as w n eared
the forbidden country, snd I suggested
that he tell his followers our destina
tion. He waited until we were a long day's
march from and well to the northwest
of the goel. Then he gathered the
warriors about hlin as they mustered
for the trail.
"Soon, O my brothers," he said In
the musical, cadenced Seneca dialect
which I was beginning to take pleas
ure In understanding, "we shall strike
our enemies. It Is a desperate enter
prise you go upon. No war party ever
set out to risk such heavy odds. No
warriors of the Long House were ever
called upon to practice such caution,
to reveal such courage.
"0 my brothers, we are going Intc
the Wood of Evil, the haunt of the
False Faces, which Is the breeding
place of all the wickedness that brands
the Keepers of the Doom Trail. You
will face much that Is horrible. You
will be threatened -with spells and
witchcraft But I ask you to remem
ber that my brother O-te-tl-an-l and 1
passed through all such perils without
harm. Keep your hearts strung."
(TO lip CONTINUED.)
Field Glass and Gun
ly common, does not allow enough
tight to reach the eye, so that Its best
use Is confined to turget shooting. A
deer hunter In the woods Is hardly
able to distinguish an animal he has
seen when he sights through the tele
scope. Two well-constructed ' tele
scopes, mounted us a part of the gun
as In this device, should prove of
great value, and may replace the old
type, Just as binoculars have rcpluced

allowances
1 When you trade-in your used ctr for
a new car; you ore after all making a
purchase, not a salt. You ore simply ap
plying your present car as a credit toward
tho purchase price of tho new car.
2 Your used car has only one fundamental
basis of value;'!, c., what the dealer who
accepts it in trade can get for it in the
used car market.
3 Your used car has seemingly different
values because competitive dealers are
bidding to sell you a new car.
4 The largest allowance is not necessarily
the best deal for you. Sometimes it is;
. sometimes it is not.
5 An excessive allowance may mean that
you are paying an excessive price for tho
new car in comparison with its real value.
6 First judge the merits of the oew car in
comparison w ith its price, including all
delivery and finance charges. Then weigh
any difference in allowance offered on
your used car.
