in an important and mysterious task, and

CHAPTER XXVI II. Continued.
"I did not need it lill Sunday," con
tinued Mrs. Knapp. "1 have been wor
ried much at the situation of the boy,
but 1 did not dare go near him. Henry
and I decided that his hiding place
was not safe. We had talked of mov
ing him a few days before you came.
When 1 found that Henry had disap
peared I was anxious to make the
cnange, but I could not venture to at
tempt it until the others were out of
town, for I knew I was watched. Then
I was assured from Mother Borton
that they did not know where the boy
was hrdden, and I let the matter rest.
But a few days ago on Saturday
she sent me word that she thought
they had found the place. Then it
cime to me to send you to Livermore
with the other boy oh, I hope no
harm came to the little fellow," she
exclaimed anxiously.
"He's safe in my rooms in charge
of Wainwright," I said. "He got back
en the morning train, and can be
had for the asking."
"Oh, I'm so glad," said Mrs. Knapp.
"I was afraid something would hap
pen to him. but I had to take desper
ate chances. Well, you see my plan
succeeded. They all followed you.
But when 1 went to the hiding place
the boy was gone. Henry had moved
him weeks ago, and had died before
he could tell mc. Then I thought you
might know more than you had told
rae that Henry Wilton might have got
you to help him when he made the
change, and I wrote to you."
"And the key," I said, remembering
the expression of the note. "Did you
mean this diagram?"
"No," said Mrs. Knapp, "I meant the
key to our cipher code. I was looking
over Henry's letters for some hint of
a hiding place and could not find the
key to the cipher. I thought you
might have been given one. I found
mine this afternoon, though, and there
was uo need cf it, so it didn't matter
after all." '
The pitching and tossing of the aoat
had ceased. And, a minute later, with
clang of bolls and groanof engine we
were at the wharf and were helped
ashore.
"Tell the cap? in to wait here for us
with fires up," said Mrs. Knapp. "The
carriage should be somewhere around
here," she continued, peering anxious
ly about as we reached the foot of the
wharf.
"This way," said a familiar voice,
nd a man stepped from the shadow.
"Dicky Nab!!" I exclaimed.
"Mr. Wilton!" mimicked Dicky.
"But it's just r. well not to speak so
oud. Here you are. I put the hack's
lights out just to escape unpleasant
remark.-'
Mrs. Knapp entered the carriage and
called to me to follow her.
I remembered Mother Borton's warn
ings and my doubts of Dicky Nahl.
"You're certain you know wh- , you
are going?" I asked him in ua. under
tone. "No, I'm not." said Dicky franldy.
'Tve found a man v ' i says he knows.
We are to meet L . We'll get there
between 3 and 4 o'clock. He won't
say another word to anybody but her
' ' '
MWWWWWMMMWWMWMV
or you. I guess he knows what he Is
about"
"Well, keep your eyes open. Meek
er's gang is ahead of us. Is the driver
reliable?"
"Right as a judge," said Dicky
cheerfully. "Now, if you'll get in
with madame we won't be wasting
time here."
I stepped into the carriage. Dicky
Nahl closed the door softly and climbed
on the seat by the driver,, and in a mo
ment we were rolling up Broadway in
the gloomy stillness of the early morn
ing hour.
CHAPTER XXIX.
The Heart of the Mystery.
I was in the shadow of the mystery
A hundred questions rose to my lips;
but behind them all frowned the grim
wolf-visage of Doddridge Knapp, and I
could not find the courage that could
make me speak to them.
"Mrs. Knapp," I said, "you have
called me by my name. I had almost
forgotten that I had ever borne It I
have lived more in the last month than
in the 25 years that I remember before
it, and I have almost come to think
that the old name belongs to some one
else. May I ask how you got hold of
it?"
"It was simple enough. Henry had
told me about you. I remembered that
you were coming from the same town
he had come from. I telegraphed to
an agent in Boston. He went up to
your place, made his inquiries and tel
egraphed me. I suppose you will be
pleased to know," she continued with
JfO-IC4tfCA2QrH&r--fW2?fT
a droll affection of malice In her voice,
"that he mailed me your full history
as gathered from the town pump. It
is at the house now."
"I tried to get something out of
Mother Borton concerning you," con
tinued Mrs. Knapp. "I even went so
far as to see her once."
"I don't think you got any more out
of her than she wanted to tell."
"Indeed I did not I was afraid Mr.
Richmond had not gone about it the
right way. You know Mr. Richmond
acted as my agent with her?"
"No, I didn't know. She was as
close-mouthed with me as with you, I
think."
"Well, I saw her. I wanted to get
; what information she had of you and
oi Henry.
"She had a good deal of it if she
wanted to give it up."
"So I suppose. But she was too
clever for me. She spoke well of you,
but not a word could I get from her
about Henrj-. Yet 6he gave me the
idea that she knew much."
"I should think she might. I had
told her the whole story."
"She is used to keeping secrets, I
suppose," replied Mrs. Knapp. "But I
must reward her well for what she has
done."
"She is beyond fear or reward."
"Dead?" cried Mrs. Knapp in a
shocked voice. "And how?"
"She died, I fear, because she be
friended me." And then I told her the
story of Mother Borton's end.
"Poor creature!" said Mrs. Knapp
sadly. "Yet perhaps it Is better so.
She has died in doing a good act"
The carriage had been rolling along
swiftly. Despite the rain the streets
were smooth and hard, and we made
rapid progress. We had crossed a
bridge, and with many trz made a
course toward the s;:'.!:ca.s.t. Now the
r "zl became softer, and progress
.was slow. An interminable array of
trees lined the way on both sides, and
to my impatient imagination stretched
for m'.'.n; befco v. Then the road
became better, the 1. rses trotted
briskly forward again, their hoofs pat
tering dully on the softened ground.
"All the better," I 'thought "It's
as good as a muffler if any one is
listening for us."
"Here's the place" came the voice
of Dicky, giving direction to the driv
er; and the carriage slackened pace
and stopped. Looking out I saw that
we were at a division of the road
where a two-story house faced both
of the branching ways.
"You'd better come out," said Dicky
at the door, addressing his remark to
me.- "He was to meet us here."
"Be careful," cautjoned Mrs.-Knapp.
I kept my hand on the revolver
that lay in my overcoat pocket and
walked with Dicky on to the porch
It was a common roadside saloon, and
at this hour it appeared wholly de
serted. Even the dog, without which
I knew no roadside saloon could ex
ist, was as silent as its owners.
"Here's a go!" said Dicky. "He was
to meet us, sure. What time have you
got?"
I struck a match in a corner and
looked at my watch by its flare.
"Five minutes to three."
"Whew!" he whispered, "we're reg
ularly done. I thought he had a bad
eye when I was bargaining with him."
I wondered if Dicky had a hand in
the trick, if trick it should prove to
be.
"Well," said Dicky dubiously, "I
think I know where the fellow would
have taken us. I trailed him this af
ternoon, and I'll lay two to one that I
can pick out the right road."
"Is this the third road from Brook
lyn?" I asked, pointing to the track
that led to the left
"I reckon so," said Dicky. "I
haven't kept count, but I recollect
only two before it"
"All right Up with you then!"
Dicky obediently mounted to the
seat beside the driver.
"I shall ride outside," I said to Mrs.
Knapp. "I may be needed'
Half a mile farther we passed a
house, and within a quarter Zl a mile
another.
"We are on the right road," was my
thought as I compared these in my
mind with the crosses on the diagram.
About half a mile farther a small
cluster of buildings loomed up, dark
and obscure, by the roadside.
"This is the place," I said confident
ly, motioning the driver to pull up. I
remembered that Henry Wilton's map
to G&Dyiffir."
had stopped at the third cross from
the parting of the roads.
"No, it isn't," said Dicky eagerly.
"It's two or three miles farther on. I
trailed the fellow myself to the next
house, and that's a good two miles at
least."
I had leaped to the gronnd, and
opened the door of the carriage.
"We are at the fourth place," I said
"And the cockeyed barn?" inquired
Mrs. Knapp, peering out.
I was struck silent by this, and
looked blankly at the dark forbidding
structure that fronted on the road.
"You're right," said Mrs. Knapp
with a laugh. "Can't you make out
that funny little window at the end
there?"
I looked more closely at the build
ing. In the dim light of the stars the
coat of whitewash that covered it
made it possible to trace the outlines
of a window in the gable that fronted
the road. Some freak of the builder
had turned it a quarter of the way
Ice Had Preserved Mammoth.
Remarkable Discovery Wade in Frozen

Benkendorf saw the head cf a mam
moth appear above the flocd. Rush
upon rush of water more and more
around, giving it a comical suggestion
of a man with a droop to bis eye.k
"And the Iron cow?" I asked,
"Stupid! a pump, of course," re
plied Mrs. Knapp. with another laugh.
"Now see If there is a lane here by
the barn."
A narrow roadway just wide enougb
for a single wagon joined the main
road at the corner of the building.
"Then drive up it qnietly," was Mrs,
Knapp's direction.
Just beyond the barn I made out the
figure of the pump in a conspicuous
place by the roadside and felt-more
confident that we were on the right
road.
The driver swore in an undertone
as the hack lurched and groaned in a
boggy series of ruts, and a branch
whipped him in the face. I was forced
to give a grunt myself, as another
slapped my sore arm and sent a sharp
twinge of pain shooting from the
wound till it tingled In my toes. Dicky,
protected between us, chuckled soft
ly. I reflected savagely that nothing
spoils a man for company like a mis
taken sense of humor.
Suddenly the horses stopped so
short that we were almost pitched out.
Mrs. Knapp rapped on the carriage
door and I opened it.
"Have you come to the bars? she
asked presently.
"I guess so. We've come against
something like a fence."
"Well, then, " she replied, "when we
get through, take the road to the left
That will bring us to the house."
"You are certain?"
"That is what Henry wrote in the
cipher beneath the map. The house
must be only a few hundred yards
away."
The bars were there, and I lifted the
wet and soggy boards with an anxious
heart Were we, after all, so near the
hiding- place? And what were we to
flud?
On a sudden turn the house loomed
up before us and a wild clamor of dogs
broke the stillness of the night.
"I hope they are tied," I said, with
a poor attempt to conceal my misgiv
ings. "We'll have a lively time in a quar
ter of a minute if they aren't," laughed
Dicky, as he followed me.
But the baying and barking came no
rearer, and I helped Mrs. Knapp out
of the carriage. She looked at the
house closely.
"This is the place," she said, In an
unmistakable tone of decision. "We
must be quick. I wish something would
quiet those dogs; they will bring the
whole country out."
It seemed an hour before we could
raise any one, but It may not have
been three minutes before a voice
came from behind the door.
"Who's there?"
"It is L. M. K.," said Mrs. Knapp;
then she added three words of gibber
ish that I took to be the passwords
used to identify the friends of the boy.
At the words there was the sound
of bolts shooting back and the heavy
door opened enough to admit us. As
we passed in, it was closed once
more and the bolts shot home.
Before us stood a short, heavy-set
man, holding a candle. His face, which
was stamped with much of the bull
dog look in it, was smooth shaven ex
cept for a bristling brown mustache.
He looked inquiringly at us.
"Is he here the boy?" cried Mrs.
Knapp, her voice choked with anx
iety." "Yes," said the man. "Do we move
again?"
"At once," said Mrs. Knapp, in her
tone of decision.
"It will take ten minutes to get
ready," said the man. "Come this
way."
I was left standing alone by the door
in the darkness, with a burden lifted
from my mind. We had come in time.
The single slip of paper left by Henry
Wilton had been the means, through
a strange combination of events, to
point the way to the unknown hiding
place of the boy.
In a few minutes the wavering light
of the candle reappeared. Mrs. Knapp
was carrying a bundle that I took to
be the boy, and the man brought a
valise and a blanket.
"It's all right," said Mrs. Kanpp
"No I can carry him I want to carry
him."
The man opened the door, then
closed and locked it as I helped Mrs.
Knapp into the carriage.
"Have you got him safe?" asked
Dicky incredulously. "Well, I'll have
to say that you know more than I
thought you did." And the relief and
satisfaction in his tone were so evi
dent that I gladly repented of my sus
picions of the light-hearted Dicky.
"Have you heard anything?" I asked
him anxiously.
"I thought I heard a yell over here
through the woods. We had better
get out of here."
"Don't wait a second," said the man.
"The south road comes over this other
way. If you've heard anybody there,
they will be here in five minutes. I'll
follow you on a horse."
With an injunction to haste, 1
stepped after Mrs. Knapp into the car
riage, the door was shut, Dicky
mounted the seat, and we rolled down
the road on the return journey.

released the body. Its hind legs were
