It was boBt, ho felt, not to glvo Slosson an opportunity to nsk questions. "It narrows considerably, pardncr, but it's a straight course," said Slos son. "Illack In yonder, ain't it?" ho added, nodding nhend. Tho shores drew rapidly together; Thoy woro leaving tho lakc-llko ex pnnso behind. In tho silence, abovo itho rustling of tho trees, Carrlugton beard the first fret of tho river ngulnst Its bank. Slosson yawned prodigious ly. "I reckon you ain't needing mo7" bo said. "llettor go up In tho bow nnd get somo sleep," advised Carrlngton, and Blosson, nothing loath, clambered down from tho root of tho cabin and stumbled forward. The ceaseless murmur of tho rush ing waters grew In the stillness us tho keel boat drew nearer tho hurry ing yellow flood, and tho beat of the Kentucklan's pulse quickened. Would he find tho raft there? Ho glanced back over the way they had como. Tho dark ranks of the forest walled off tho clearing, but across tho water a dim point of light was visible. Ho fixed Its position as somowhoro near tho bead of tho bayou. Apparently It was a lantern, but as ho looked n ruddy glow crept up against tho sky line. From the bow Hunker had been ob serving this singular phenomenon. (Suddenly ho bent and roused Slos son, who had fallon asleep. Tho tavern-keeper sprang to his feet and Bunker pointed without speaking. J "Mobby you can toll nio what that light back yonder means?" cried Slos iBon, addressing hlnucir to Carrlng ton; as ho spoke ho snatched up his rifle. "That'B what I'm trying to inako out," answered Carrlngton. "Hell I" cried Slosson, and tossed bis gun to his Bhoulder, What seemed to bo a breath of wind lifted a stray lock or Carrlng ton's hnlr, but his pistol answered Blosson In tho same second. Ho tired At the huddlo of men In tho bow of tho bont and ono of them pitched lor ward with bis arms outsprend. "Keep back, you!" ho said, and dropped off tho cabin roof. His promptness had bred a momen tary panic, then Slosson's bull-llko voice began to roar commands; but In that brief Instant of surprise nnd shock Carrlngton had found and with drawn the wooden peg that fastened the cnbln door. He had 'scarcely done .this when Slosson camo tramping aft supported by the threo men. Calling to Betty and Hannibal to cs capo In the skiff which was towiup astern tho Kcntucklan rushed towara the bow. At bis back he heard tho door creak ,on its hinges as It was Cotrwtftt WawawsTBWsTBTBBfaBBBBBwaWawaTwBwwnTwl pushed open by Hetty nnd tho boy, nnd again he called to them to cscapo by tho skiff, Tho fret of the current hnd grown steadily and from beneath tho wide-flung branches of tho trees which h'oro mot abovo his head, Car rlngton caught Bight or tho star specked arch of tho henvens beyond, Thoy wcro Issuing from tho bnyou. Ho felt tho river snatch at tho keel boat, tho buffeting or somo swift eddy, and saw tho blunt bow swing off to tho south us thoy wcro plunged Into tho black nhoro shadows. Hut what ho did not seo wns a big miiKculnr hand which hnd thrust Itself out of tho Impenetrable gloom and clutched tho sldo or tho keel boat. Co incident with this there arose a per fect babel or voices, hlgh-jiltchcd and" shrill. "Sho' I bet it's him! Sho' It's Un. clo Hob's nevvy! Sho', you can hoar 'em! Sho', tuoy'ro ehootln' guns! Sho'!" Carrlngton cast n hurried glanco In tho direction or thoso sounds. There between tho bont and tho shore the dim outline of a raft was taking shapo. It was now canopied by n wealth or palo gray smoke thut latleU from be fore his eyes as tho darkness lifted. Tho light Increased. From tho Hat stone hearth of tho raft ascended a tall column or llama which rendered visible six pigmy figures, tow-headed und wonderfully vocal, who wero toll ing llko mnd at tho huge sweeps. The light showed more thun this. It showed a lady of plump and pleasing prosenco smoking n cob-pipo whllo sho fod tho lire from n tick stuffed with straw. It showed two bark shanties, a lino botwecn them decorated with tho never-ondlng Cavendish wash, it showed a rooster perched on the rldgc-polo of one of theso shantlcB in the very act or crowing lustily. Hannibal, who had climbed to the; root or tho cabin, shrieked for help, and Hetty added her voice to his. "All right, Nevvy!" camo tho cheer ful reply, as Yancy threw himself over the sldo of the boat and grap pled with Slosson. "Uncle Hob! Undo Hob!" cried Hannibal. Slosson uttered u cry of terror. Ho had a stmplo but sincere faith In tho supernatural, and even with tho Scratch Hlllcr'n big hands gripping his throat, ho could not rid himself or the belief that this was tho ghost or a murdered man. "You'll take a dog's licking from me, uelghbor," said Yancy grimly. "I been saving It fo' you!" Meunwhllo Mr. Cavendish, whoso proud spirit never greatly Inclined him to tho prnctice of peace, had pro pared for battle. 'Springing aloft be knocked his heels together. "Whoop! I'm a man as can slide down a thorny locust and never get scratched!" ho shoutod. This was equivalent to setting his triggers; then ho launched himself nimbly and with enthusiasm Into tho thick of tho tight. It was Mr. Hunker's unfortu- He Launched Hlmwlf Nimbly and THE PRODIGAL JUDGE K 5UGHATf IttSTCR, UVSTtyTtOHS ByDlMELVIX '9"a fotficMS fifteen CofoAtr nnto privilege to sustain tho onslaught or tho Karl or Lambeth. Tho light from tho Cavendish hearth continued to brighten tho sceno, for Polly was recklessly sac rificing her best straw tick. Indeed her behavior was In every way worthy of the noble alliance sho had rormed. Her cob-pipe was not suffered to go out und with Connie's help sle kopt the six small Cavendishes from risk lug lire and limb In tho keel boat, to ward which they were powerfully drawn. Despite 'theso activities she round time to call to Hetty and Han nibal on tho cabin roof. "Jump down hero; that ain't no fit tin' placo for you-all to stop in with them gentlemen flghtln'!" An Instant Inter Hetty and Hnnnl bnl stood on the rart with tho little Cavendishes flocking about them. Mr. ,Yancy'B quost of his nevvy hnd taken un enduring hold on their imagina tion. For weeks It llad constituted tholr ono vital topic, and. tho light be came merely a satisfying background for this Interesting restoration. "Sho', they'd got him! Sho' ho wn'n't no bigger than Richard! Sho'!" "Oh!" cried Hetty, with a f earful glanco toward the keel boat. "Can't you stop them?" "What fo'?" asked Polly, opening her black eyes very wide. "Uless yo' tender heart! you don't need to wor ry nono, we got them strango gentle men licked like they was,a possel of children! Connie, you-all mind that tiro!" Sho accurately judged tho outcome of tho fight. The boat was little bet tor than a shambles with tho havoc that had been wrought thcro when Yancy and Carrlngton dropped over Its side to tho rntt. Cavendish fol lowed them, whooping his triumph as ho camo. CHAPTER XXIX. The Raft Again. 1 nncy unu uuvenuiuu lurew menu. selves on the sweeps and worked the rntt clear of the keel boat, then the turbulent current seized the smaller craft and whirled it uway Into tho night; as Its black bulk recoded from before his eyes the Earl of Lambeth spoke with the voice of authority and experience. "It was a good light and them fel lows dono well, but not near well onough." A conclusion that could not be gainsaid. He added, "No one ain't hurt but them that had ought to have got hurt. Mr. Yancy's all right, and so's Mr. Carrlngton who's mighty welcomo here." "Mr. Carrlngton's kin to me, Pol ly," explained Yancy to Mrs. Caven dish. His voice was far from steady, for Hannibal had been gathered Into his arms and hnd all but wrecked the stoic calm with which the Scratch Hlller was seeking to guard bis emo tions. Polly smiled and dimpled at the Kontucklau. Trained to n romantic With Enthusiasm Into th Fight '.'SB aL-i "i2"?5- s j? - point of view sho had a frank liking for handsome,, stalwart men. Cavcn dlBh was neither, but nono knew bet ter than Polly that whero ho was most lacking In appearance he was richest in substance. He carried scars hon orably earned In those differences ho had been prono to cultlvato with less generous natures; for his scheme of life did not embraco the millennium. "Thank Ood, you got hero when you did!" said Carrlngton. "Wo was some pushed fo' time, but we done It," responded the enrl mod estly. Ho added, "What now? do wo make a landing?" "No unlesH It Interferes with your plans not to. I want to get around the next bend before wo tie up. Later we'll all go back. Can I count on you?" "You shorcly can. I consider this here as soclablo a neighborhood no 1 ever struck. It pleases mo well. Folks arc up and doing hereabout." Carrlngton looked eagerly around In search of Hetty. She wns sitting on nn upturned tub, a pathetic enough llgure as sho drooped ngainst the wall of one of the shanties with all her courage qutto gono from her. Ho made, his way quickly to her sldo. "Lft!" whispered Polly In Chills and Fever's ear. "If that pore young thing yonder keeps a widow It won't be be cause of any encouragement sho gets from Mr. Carrlngton. If I over seen mnrrluge tn n man's eye I seen It In his this minute!" "Hruco!" cried Hetty, starting up as Carrlngton approached. "Oh, Hruco, I nm so glad you havo come you are not hurt?" Sho ncceptod his presence without question. "We are none or us hurt, Hetty," ho said gently, as he took her hand. 1 He saw that tho suffering she had undergone during the preceding twenty-four hours bad left Its record on her tired face and in her heavy eyes. She retained u shuddering con Bciousncss of tho unchecked savagery of those last moments on the keel boat; she was htill bearing the oaths of the men as they struggled together, tho sound of blows, and the dreadful silences that had rollowed them. She turned from him, and thcro came the relief of tears. "There, Hetty, the danger Is ever now nnd you were bo brave while It lasted. I can't bear to have you cry!" "I. was wild with fear all thut tlmo on tho boat, Hruco " sho faltered be tween her sobs. "I didn't know but they would Hnd you out. 1 could only wait and hope and pray!" "I was In no danger, dear. Didn't the girl tell you I was to tako tho place of a man Slosson was expect ing? He nover doubted that I was that man until a light a signal It must hnve been on the shore nt the bead of the bayou betrayed me." "Whero aro we going now, Hruce? Not tho way they went " nnd Hetty glanced out Into the black void where the keel boat had merged Into tho gloom. "No, no but we can't get the rart back up-stream against the current, so tho best thing Is to land nt tho Hates' plantation below here; then au soon as you ure able we can return to Uelle Plain," snld Carrlngton. There wns an Interval broken only by the occasional sweep of the great steering oar .as Cavendish coaxod the raft out toward tho channel. The thought of Chnrloy Norton's murder rested on Carrlngton llko a pall. Scarcely n week had elapsed since ho quitted Thicket Point, and In that week the hand of death had dealt with them Impartially, and to what end? Then tho miles ho bad traversed In his hopeless journey up-river trans lated themselves Into a division of tlmo as well as space. They were Just as much further removed from the past with its blight of tragic ter ror. Ho turned nnd glanced at Hetty. Ho saw that her eyes held their steady look of wistful pity that was for tho dead man; yet In sptto of this, and In spite of tho bounds boyond which be would not let his Imagination carry him, tho futuro, enriched with sudden promise, unfolded Itself. Tho (loop sonso of recovered hope stirred with in htm. He know there must como a day when he would daro to speak of his lovo, and sho would listen. "It's best we should land at Hates' place wo can get teams thero," bo went on to explain. "And, Hetty, wherovor wo go we'll go together, dear. Cavendish doesn't look as If bo bad any very urgent business of his own, and I reckon tho samo Is true of Yancy, so I am going to kcop them with us. There aro some points to be cleared up when wo reach Helle Plain somo folltH who'll havo a lot to ex-' plain or elso quit this part of tho stato! And I lntond to see that you aro not loft alone until until I havo the right to tnko care of you for good nnd all that's what you yant mo to do one ot these days, Isn't It, dar ling?" nnd his eyoB, glowing and In finitely tender, dwelt on her upturned face.
