Unllnrly aided Mrs. and Miss Sumter.
Less than half an hour the trio spent
vnder the doctor's hospitable root Be
Sore 2 o'clock the wind had increased
to gale. The snow was driving swift
'and bard. "I checked you Just In
time." said he. "There'll be no train
either way this night" And so by 2
aclock and just as the paymaster was
driving away down the front of offl

3Usa Arnold, escorted by the two med
ical officers, were struggling across tho
pen space between the surgeon's
bouses and the rear fence of the long
Use and presently entering the back
ate at Sumter's.
It waa an odd arrangement, some
what peculiar to frontier stations of
tbe day. The Inclosure of Port Cusli
lug was diamond shaped. The entrance
gate was at tho eastern apex. Tbe hos
pital and surgeons' quarters stood on a
Hue with this gate, their front perpen
dicular to tbe long axis of the diamond.
Their rear elevations, therefore, were
sot far from officers' row. From tbe
front of Sumter's bouse, around by
ray of the mala gate to the doctor's
door-the first to the left (northi of the
'cost trader's waa quite n vvulk. Frqm
tack door to buck door, however, It
was less than 200 paces. "We are near
neighbors," Dr. Larrabee had been say
ing, "though my wife thinks It a long
walk on a windy day. 1 could reach
yon day or night almost in a minute."
"Is Mr. Lanier sitting up?" Mrs, Sum
ter inquired. "I thought Dr. Schu
oaardt was trying to keep blin In bed."
Ue won't stay," was the answer
"Dr. Larrabee." finally suld Mrs,
Sumter, "Miriam says sue believes
it, was all a mere delusion a dream.
Sbe blames herself bitterly and begs
as to think no more of It to forgive

"But why should I attempt to con

"Did she tell of that?"

"And nothing Is missing?"
"Nothing. Hut Captain Sumter wish

"Miss Kntev has a level bend," pres
ently spoke Larrabee. "What does

"Doctor, that Is what troubles me
Kate won't sny nnythlng. it'a tho

blind and well nigh exhausted. He
was searching for sentry No. 5.
"You will probably find Dr. Schu
chardt nt Lieutenant Lanier's quar

with kindly intent. "Take No.

him I think a nip of whisky advisable
under the circumstances."
And ths It happened that two storm
beaten soldiers presently shoved their
way through Lanier's back gate nnd
banged at the kitchen door. Nobody
