1 wns almost at my cabin door nt
tho edgo of the forest frontage tit tho
rear of tho old post, when I caught
glimpse, in tho dim light, of a hurry-
Ing figure which In some way rscomed
to bo different from tho blanket-covered
squaws who stalked hero and
tliero nbout the post grountlH. Sho
passed steadily on toward a long and
low log cabin, located n short dls
tanco beyond tho quarters which had
boon nsslgned to mo. I saw her stop
up to tho door and heard her knock:
then thero came a flood of light moro
light thnu was usual in the opening
door of a frontier cabin. This dis
played the figure of tho night walker,
showing her trill and gaunt nnd a little
stooped; so Unit, nfter all, I took her
to be only one of our American fron
tier women, being quite sure that she
was not Indlnn or half-breed.
This emboldened mo, on n mcro
chance nn act whoso mental origin I
could not havo traced to step up to
the door after It had been closed, and
myself to knock thereat.
I heard women's volceB within, nnd
ns I knocked the door opened Just a
trifle on Its chain. I saw appear at
the crack the face of the woman
whom I had followed.
Sho was, as I had believed, old and
wrinkled, nnd her face now, scon
close, wan as mysterious, dark and In
scrutnblo as that of any Indian
squaw. Her hair foil heavy and gray
across her forehead, and her eyes wero
small and dark as thoso of a native
woman. Yet, ns she stood thero with
the light streaming upon her, I snw
something In her fnco which mndo mo
puzzle, ponder nnd start nnd put my
foot within tho crnck of tho door.
"Threlkn," I said quietly, "toll

With an exclamation of surprise, tho

heard the rustle of a footfall. 1 could
havo told In advanco what face would

with lips half parted In query. It waa
tho face of Ilelona, Daroness, von

"Kb blcn! iiiiidnm, why do you bar
