CHAPTER Xlll-Contlnued.
"Now we'll see what's hnppened,"
aid Habersham. "It looks almost too
enHy."
The members of Orlswold's party
who had been thrown round to the
farther side of the church began to
nppoar, one at a time. There was no
nervousness among any of the band
a fact that Impressed Oriswold.
They were all risking much In this
enterprise, hut they were outwardly
unperturbed, and chewing their to
bacco Bilently while they awaited the
return of the two active agents In the
conspiracy who had dealt directly
with Applewelght. Habersham count
ed heads, and announced all present
or accounted for.
The tall leader who had ridden the
mule waa the first to rise out of the
underbrush, through which he had
crawled clrcultously from the rear of
tne church. His companion followed
a few seconds later.
"We've got Hill, all tied and gagged
and a-fllttlng of his hoss," drawled the
leader, "and the hoss Is tied to the
back fence. Rest o' his boys thought
he's gone ahead, but they may miss
him and come back. He's safe
enough, and ef we keep away from
him we'll be ready to light out ef the
Rang scents trouble and comes back
to look fer Bill."
"You're sure he's tied up so he can't
break away or yell?"
"He's as good as dead, a-settln' of
his hoss in the thicket back then."
"And now," said Habersham, "what
we've got to do Is to make a run for
It nd land him across the border, and
st'ck him Into a North Carolina Jail,
where he rightfully belongs. The ques
tion Is, can we do It all In one night,
or had we better lock him up some
where on this Bldo the line and take
another night for It? The sheriff over
there in Klldare Is Applewelght's
cousin, but we'll lock him up with
Hill, to meke a family party of It."
"We'd better not try too much to
fllfiht," counseled Griswold. "It's a
big thing to have the man himself,
tf It were not for the matter of put
ting Gov. Dangerfleld In a hole, I'd
favor hurrying with Applewelght to
Columbia, Just for the moral effect of
It on the people ot South Carolina.
We'd make a big killing for the ad
ministration that way, Habersham."
"Yes, you'd make a killing all right,
but you'd have Hill Applewelght on
your hands, which Gov. Osborne has
not until lately been anxious for," re
plied Habersham, In a low tone that
was heard by no one but his old pre
ceptor. "You'd better get over the Idea
that we're afraid of this outlaw." re-,
Joined Griswold. "The governor of
North Carolina dare not call his soul
his own where these hill people are
concerned; but the governor ot South
Carolina Is a different sort."
While they thus stood on South
0rol!na soil, waiting for the safe and
complete dispersion of the Mount
Nebo congregation before seizing' the
saptlve they had gagged and tied at
the rear of the little church, the fates
were ordering a very different ter
mination of the night's business.
Miss Jerry Dangerfield, galloping
way from the duke of Ilullywlnkle,
With no thought but to widen the dis
tance between them, turned off at the
first cross-road, which began weil
enough, but degenerated rapidly into
a miserable trail, through which shi
was obliged to walk her horse. Ile

aloud to the horse to reassure her

however, find her way back to Ards

self, though it rarely pleased her to
be serious with other people; and she
knew that the time had long passed

She assumed that probably all the
roads and paths on the estate led
more or less directly to the greit
house, or to some lodge or bungalow.
She had lost her riding crop In her j
mad flight, and she broke off a switch,
tossing its leaves into the moonlight
and laughing softly as they ruined
about her.
Suddenly ahead of her through the
woods floated the sound of singing
one of those strange, wavering pieux
cantlques peculiar to the south. She

"I'm much more lost than I thought
I was, for I must be away off the es
tate," she reflected. She turned and
rode bark a few rods and dismounted,
and tied her horse to a sapling. She
was disappointed at not finding a
camp of Ardmore's woodcutters, to
whom she would unhesitatingly have
confided herself; but it seemed wise
now to exercise caution In drawing to
herself the" attention of strangers. She
did not know that she had crossed the
state line and was In South Carolina,
or that the Hinging she had heard
floated from the windows of Mount
Nebo church.
She beenme now the astonished wit
ness of a series of Incidents that oc
curred so swiftly as fairly to take her
breath away. A tall, loosely articu
lated man came from the direction of
the church and walked toward her.
She knelt at the tree and watched,
the moonlight giving her a clear view
of a rustic somewhat past middle age,
whose chief characteristics seemed to
be a grizzled beard and long arms
that swung oddly at his side. The
brim of his wool hat was turned up
sharply from his forehead, and she
had a glimpse of the small, keen, gray
eyes with which he swept the forest
before' him.. He freed a horse which
she had not borore noticed, and she
expected him to mount and ride away
to Join others of the congregation
whom she heard making off In a road
beyond the church. Then, with a
quickness and deftness that baffled
her eyes, two men rose beside him
Just as he was about to mount; there
was no outcry and no sound of scuf
fling, so quick was the descent and so
perfect the understanding between the
captors. In a moment the man was
gathered up, bound, and flung on his
saddle. She had a better view of him,
now that he was hatless, though a gag
had been forced Into his mouth and a
handkerchief tied over his eyes, so
that he presented a grotesque appear

forgot to be afraid; never In her life
had she witnessed anything so amaz

complete bewilderment, the captors,
diier carefully inspecting their work
and finding It satisfactory, seemed to
Disappear utterly from the face of the
earth.
In the woods to her left she thought
she heard a horse neigh; then she saw
shadows moving In that direction;
and again, from the road, she heard
the brief debate of the two men as
to the whereabouts of "mil;" and it
struck Jerry humorously that he
would not soon see his friends unless
they came and helped him out of his
predicament.

about; a man had been attacked,
seized, and left slttl ig in a Btate of
absurd helplessness on a horse pre
sumably his own, and there was no
guessing what Ulro petialty his cap
tors had In store for him.
Alulet reigned lu the neighborhood
of the church; the lights had blinked
out; the bung of the closing shutters
reassured Jerry, and she crept on her
knees toward the unconscious rantlve

and am quite sure we never met be
fore, I hope you will kindly guide me
to Ardsley, and thereby render me

ciate."
Mr. mil Applewelght, alias Poteet,
was well hardened to the shocks of
time, but the pleasant-voiced girl
coolly sitting her horse, and holding
his own lank steed by a strap, was the
most amazing human being that had
yet dawned on his horizon. He was
not stupid, but Jerry's manner of
speech had baffled more sophisticated
minds than Applewelght's, and the
sweet sincerity of her tone, and her
frank countenance, hallowed as It was
by the moonlight, wrought In the out
law's mind a befuddlement not wholly
unlike that which had possessed the
wits of many young gallants south of
the Potomac who had laid siege to
Jerry Dnngerfield's heart. But the
cries behind them were .more pro
nounced, and Applewelght was noth
ing If not a man of action. '
"Take these things off'n me," he
commanded fiercely, "and I'll see y'
safe to Ardsley."
"Not In the least," replied Jerry
who was herself not unmindful of the
voices behind. "You will kindly tell
me the way, and I will accommodate
my pace to that of your own some
what ill-nourished beast. And aa
there's a mob looking for you back
there, all ready to hang you to one
of these noble forest trees, I advise
you to use more haste and less cau
tlon In pointing the way."
Applewelght lifted his head and
took his bearing. Then he nodded to
ward one of the three trails which
had so baffled Jerry when first she
broke Into the clearing.
"Thet's the nlghest," said Apple
weight, "and we d better git."
She set the pace at a trot, and was
relieved In a few minutes to pass one
or two landmarks which she remem
bered rrom her flight through the
woods. As they splashed through the
brook she had forded, she was quite
confident that the captive was play.

course she should strike the high-
road to Ardsley wnich she abandoned
to throw off the duke of Ilallywlnkle.
It was now ten o'clock, and the
moon was sinking behind the forest
trees. Jerry took advantage of an
occasional straight strip of road to go
forward ot a gallop, but these
stretches did uot offer frequently, and
the two riders kept pretty steadily to
a smart trot.
As they walked their horses through
a bit of sand, the-prisoner spoke;
"Who air y u, little gal?"
Jerry turned In the saddle, so that
Applewelght enjoyed a full view of
her face.
"I am perfectly willing to tell you
my name, but first it would he more
courteous for you to tell me yours,
particularly ns I am delivering you
from a band of outlaws who undoubt
edly Intended to do you harm."
He laughed a curious, chuckling
laugh. He had ceased to struggle at
his bonds, but seemed resigned to his
strange fate. He had not answered
Jerry s question, and had no Intention
of doing bo. The sudden attack at
the church had aroused all his cun
ning. Applewelght, alius Poteet, was
an old wolf, and knew well the wava
of the trapper; but the bold attempt
to kidnap him was a new feature of
trie game as heretofore played alonfc
the border. He did not make it out;
nor waa he wholly satisfied with the
girl's explanation of her presence in

Cornelia Dean suddenly received a
letter frou John Oliver answering
pertinent questions that had been
asked of him twenty years before.
Cornelia, still a spinster and a
most comely one was surprised. The
yellowed pages, the faded ink, and
the date line told her that the letter

the postofflce stamp thowed that the
letter had been mailed from Boston
but one day before.
Romance had long been dead In
the heart of Cornelia Dean. She had
loved John Oliver nobly and faith
fully, and when he bad passed out of
her life as a lover, none other had

opened the letter, and read, for the
fifth time, its contents.
"My dearest: I have waited several
days and Impatiently for the letter
you wanted me to read and answer
before coming for your answer to my
proposal and now It Is here.
"I know, dear, that I am practically

as you know, my father owns a large

I will eventually go into business with

part of sfu hour dreaming. When she
was again mistress of her thoughts,
a great resolve had been made within
her. Cornelia had decided to go to
Boston! She had not been out of
town since the death of her parents,
some ten years before.
"But what "hall I wear?" asked
Cornelia, speaking, as was her wont,
to herself. "Surely if if I find him
I must look as nearly as possible like
the girl he knew. Nothing that I
have now will do. I must be more
more up-to-date; more like the glrla

of today. I am not so-so old any-
way, even If I do dress plainly. I
haven't a gray hair In my head."
At last the day of her departure
came, and the little cottage was
safely locked, the key hidden In a
plant rack on the porch, and the
more than pretty little lady on her
way to the station.
The trip was a frightful one to the
unsophisticated Cornelia, and a sigh
of relief came to her lips when she
found herself safely arrived. Boston
was a larger city than she had Imag
ined. She began to realize the hope
lessness of her quest.
The address of his John's old
home was burned Indelibly on her
brain. She called there after depos
iting her little baggage at a modest
hotel. She found herself In front of
a roofless domicile, the clapboards of
which were being rapidly stripped
from the scantlings. In consternation
she stood an Idle second watching
the workers reduce the building.
Is there anything I can do for
you?"
Unconsciously she had entered the
gate shutting the lot of this building
from the street. A man In the garb
or a carpenter stood before her.
"I I" Cornelia hesitated. "I was
hunting for the residence of the Oli
vers. They used to live here. I be
lieve?'
"Moved," elucidated the man briefly.
"This is the site of a skyscraper that
the Olivers are having erected. This
plot is too valuable for a residence to
occupy. It's right in the heart of
things, as you might say."
"But can you tell me where tht
where John Oliver lives?"
"With his parents, I believe; but as
to that, I don't know. I don't even
know where they have moved to
Young Mr. Oliver is here almost every
day to see how the work progresses.
Can I give him some message?"
"Tell him that Cornelia Dean was
here."
Cornelia Dean," repeated the man.
"O then you're the lady to whom the
letter went!"
"What what letter?" asked the
puzzled Cornelia.
"One of my men found an old let
ter, sealed and addressed to you, un
der the tin roof of this house. Some
one, while Inspecting the timber,
probably, after the shingles were off,
had dropped it, and the tin fitters
covered It up without noticing. I
mailed it."
"O," gasped Cornelia.
"Here comes Mr. John Oliver now."
The carpenter failed to notice the
woman's embarrassment. A well-built
man of about forty years of age ap
proached. As he came nearer a puz
zled look crept Into his eyes, and
then suddenly his pace quickened and
he advanced, both hands outstretched.
"You!" cried John Oliver, the trem
bling fiaers of the woman pressed
closed In his; and there, before the
wondering eyes of the men, he kissed
her. "I have waited centuries for
you, he said.

ENLIST AID OF CHURCHES
Powerful Weapon Brought to Bear In
the right Against Tuber-
culoels.
Just how serious a problem tubercu
losis Is to the average church, and In
Just what ways pastors are called up
on to minister to those suffering from
this disease, is the subject of an In
vestigation which the national asso
ciation for the study and prevention
of tuberculosis Is conducting in con
nection with Its plans for tuberculo
sis day on April 30. Statistics are
being gathered from thousands of
ministers regarding this subject, and
among other figures the number of
deaths last year from tuberculosis In
the church congregation will be given.
It is planned to place these statistics
together with other educational ma
terial, In the hands of every minister
In the country for his use In connec
tion with Tuberculosis day. Millions
of circulars and pamphlets on the pre
vention of tuberculosis will also be
Issued, both from the national office
and from the headquarters of the 450
anti-tuberculosis associations who will
co-operate in the movement.
That Essential Struggle.
There are men who go through life
without ever getting what one would
call a throw-down or set back they
never get to know what it means to
face rough or tough weather. Their
way is slicked and paved. They seem
to miss the one great essential thin
in every success the struggle; days
wnen everything looks as though one
is about done for and ready to cave In.
A Woman's Reason.
"Why," asks the inquisitive person, .
'do you enjoy having some one tell
you that you are pretty, when you
know you are not? Does It make you
believe that you are?"
"No," she answers readily. "But it
makes me believe that he believes I
am." Judge.
