This was something I bad not count- ed on. I knew no more about horse - shoeing than about knitting, but I put a bold face on the matter and went to work. "What the — yo' doin?" yelled the man. "Air yo' goln ter put that shoe on with nary triwmin?' "Don't yo' s'pose 1 know my busi- ness?' I cried, bristling. "I was only Stun 1t" With that I seized a knife and began to cut But I was too excited to pare • the hoof even if 1 bad been an expert, and in another moment the mad yelled again, "Et yo' cut that critter's hoot off, I'll brain yo'r "Here, Sandy," I cried to the black- smith within, "come shoe this man's critter. He thinks heknows more'n I do about sboein." The blacksmith finished the job,. while I, pretending to be greatly irri- tated, was glad to escape into his dwelling house. Going to a front win- dow and dropping a curtain so that I could look into the road without being seen, I took a view of the situation. The guerrillas were scattered about the town, some riding around the bonsai bunting for us, others sitting on their horses, questioning the inhabitants as to our whereabouts. Captain Ringoid" was in command. A negro boy was playing "bopscotcb" en the sidewalk. The captain called to him: "Yo' boy thar, didn't:eyo' see anybody, go this way awhile ago?" "Two women an a boy 'bout big as me?" "Yee" "An a white man an a colored man? "Yes. Which way did they go?" "Dey's gwine rigbt 'long dar." And be pointed to a path leading across the road westward. •-b• "Here, you." cried the captain to two men who were watering their horses at a wooden trough in front of the ' shop, "strike out on that path." .7--Tiie'men dii ed away: leuvilig fif captain alone In the road. A little old woman came out of a house opposite and began to guy him in a cracked voice, poking fun at him for not being able to catch a party of women. She talked so familtarly with bim that .1 began to suspect she knew him. 1 trembled for fear she would betray us. "You tms ain't wo'th a persimmon," she said. "With them critters' legs un- der yer, yer orter ketch wimmen folks easy." "We'll catch ',em easy enough. They've gone along thar," pointing to the path his men were just dashing into. "Th' didn't go that a -way." "They didn't? Which way did they go?" "D' yer s'pose I give fac's fo' noth- in?' • A cold chill ran down my back. She was going to tell for pay. "What do yo' want?" "Gimme 'puff fo' a caliker dress, an I'll put yer on th' right track." "She'?" "Sart'in." "This '11 git it as easy." He drew a revolver and put it to her face. She drew back. But this man, who was above his calling, never could persist in ill treating a woman, and. lowering his weapon, be put his hand in his pocket and polled out a bill. "That's the stuff ter git fac's with," said the woman. "Now, you uns git right 'long thar," and she pointed up the road northward. "That won't do," said the captain. "We just came from up thar." There was n pause, at the end of which I heard the woman say In a low tone: "Captain!" The voice was familiar. I saw the man start, then exclaim, "Great God!" The old woman went over to him .. and, taking bold of his bridle rein, be- gan to whisper to him earnestly.' Pres- ently I heard the captain say: "1 can't do !t" There was more whispering, and by the woman's attitude I knew she was Pleading. Was she pleading for us? If so, who could this good friend be to take so much interest in us? "I'd do It fo' yo' an yo' friend, but not the other one." She fumbled with tine rein, she strok- ed bis horse's neck, she laid her hand on his, ail the while talking earnestly and looking up into his eyes, I fancied beseechingty, though I could not see her face, for her bads was toward me, while tbe man's head was drooping lower and lower. Her bonnet fell back on her neck, and I knew the old wom- an was Jaqueline. "Can yo' refuse when I ask itr she said loud enough for me to bear. The man was silent The struggle .a wnnln °film was plain In every line of his face. At last he said:. "Po' yo' sake, little one, I'll do It." She took bis rough brown band in her little white one and bent ber head down upon it, then looking up through tears: "I Fan give yo' only a trifle in reward, captain, dear. Kiss me." Bending from his saddle, he rever- ently touched his lips to her forehead.. Lost in wonder at the strange sight, 1 was nevertheless congratulating my- self that she had securedthe man's promise to draw off his force when the Whole advantage was spoiled through the insane jealousy of Captain Beaumont It seems that the captain had disdained to bide with the rest. Indeed be bad ne occasion to hide.. The guerrillas did not know thht he was with our party, and he was in no more danger from them than any other man would be. He bad, however, yielded to Jack's persuasion to go Into a house and keep out of sight Wben the guer- rillasrode Into town, he was sitting by a window sipping a glass of Tennessee whisky, and at the moment Ringold imprinted the kiss en Jack's forehead, as ill luck would bave it, he happened to look out of the window. In another moment he was in the road'discharging his revolver at 'the guerrilla, who. drawing his own weapon, returned the Ore. A fusillade followed, Ringold re- (eiving a wound that put him hors de combht. Swaying in his saddle, he fell fainting to the ground. Jaqueline turned upon Beaumonthike a fury. I have seen little Jack to many a towering passion, but never anything like this. Her face was livid, ber eyes flaming. She tried to speak, but her ire choked ber. At last one word ex- pressive of her pent up feelings came. out like a pistol sbot: "Pigs Having thus relieved herself to Cap- tain Beaumont, she turned to the pros- WM& Swayfno in his saddle; he felt fainting to the ground,. o • trate Ringold;' knelt beside him, croon-. ing over him as if be had been dearer , to her than all the world beside. • At this moment a guerrilla, who had doubtless been attracted by the firing, dashed down -the - -road.--Beanmont- caught sight of him just as Jack had hurled ber opprobrious epithet. With an expression indicating that hewould prefer death to another such word from the girl who had enthralled him, he started to meet the • invader. Shots were exchanged,_ and the guerrilla.. fell from the -saddle. He watefollowed by another, who. shared' the saniesjute, while a third, perhaps fancying. that tae. esu',Struck a troop of t7oetectofats soldieni.,turned and fled. -Ali this bap - weed ao quickiy:thattto one but Beau- mont and the time -bandits had an op- portnnity to take a hand in the tight When there were no more guerrillas for the captain •to kill,.:he• wentrstxyiy back to Jack, who had : w'tnessed•. hie feat, • looking like a sehoolboy"who•had done: penance, for a fault: and . wanted for-. eremite. But Jack turned- her back on him. When the thing began, . with one bound, disguised and bei as was, I cleared my window. When' Ringokll fell, I.was jolned•by the other members or our party from the houses.'. Buck had blackened himself for a, ne-' gro, and it was he who -had answered 'Rif•;fg+oid's questions. Helen and Ginger' had hidden without disguise. The peo- ple of the town, one man and eight wo- men, besides children, rushed into the road. I knew well that the absence Of the guerrillas was but temporary; that they would soon come down on us. In s• body. "We have no time to lose," I cried.' "We mita get away at once." "Where- "Anywhere." Turning to the townspeople, I asked if they could furnish a conveyance. 'I've a horse and wagon in my shed,", said the smith. "Out with it, quick!" Every one Of us took a hand in hart pate taut itis team. and in three mantes by tee clock we bad. itnished. • Then we all tumbled in, except Jack. who, tleclnred she would never leave her friend, Captaln Ringold, There was no tinge to bandy words, so I took her up and tossed her into the wagon, where site fell in a beep. Rising or ber knees, she shook her clinched dal at me and: cried to the wounded guer- rilla that she would come back to him ae seen as sbe could get away. Mean- while the blaeksmith was driving us dowu the road, belaboring his horse with the stump of an old whip. CHAPTER XXI. A STERN cissas. STIt,AIGHT read lay before Be Ai' to Decherd, a few miles tautThe ce was dis- la 'of too . p great importance for the guer- rillas rillas to dare miter, and if we could reach it before they could catch us we should be safe. -How much is your horse worth?" 1 asked the blacksmith. , "A. matter o' saxty dollars." "If you kill him by hard driving, I'll give you a hundred, and if you get us to Decherd before the outlaws can catch us I'll make It a hundred more." "Weel, noo, 1 don't want to be hhrd on a mon flyin for his life and wimmen 'folk too. 1'll do the best I can and ask no money," • - With that be belabored the poor horse's flanks with the stump of his whip and sent him galloping onward. There were no springs to the Wagon, but we valued our lives too well to draw rein at rut or stone. At one part of the road 1 feared that if we did not cbeck our pace we would break a wbeel and be left with no means to get on save our legs. I' cautioned the driver to slacken his pace; but. bearing or fancying be beard the clattering or :horses' boots behind, without a we .d • from me he applied the lash. Noor' -'e bounded into tbe air and now w' Were tossedtogether like dice In a boa. "Git oop. ye critter!" cried the black- smith, mingling. Scotch and Tennessee. "Don't ye know ye're graggin bonny teddies flyfn for their lives?" And down came the butt of the whip. It was harrowing to see'a horse forced to „give his life to save ours, but our situ- ation was too critical to 'warrant any slackening of speed. Jack, who•of all our force was usually most frightened at danger ahead and world fight it most vigorously when face to face with ft, for once acted to reverse at seeing "the'poor brute making leapsthat were killing him. "Stop beating that horse, you brute," she cried, "or I'll beat you!" And she sprang forward to seize the whip. I caught her in 'my arm's. , Sbe looked up into my • face and burst into tears., Whether ,it was wholly sytnpathy or overstrained nerves 1 did not know; probably both. , At any rate, I protect- ed ber from the jolting by,keeping her ,in my arms, while.she bid her faces* • that she could not see the. suffering: --horse--,.,-.-:--_....x --- .. ..v....;m ..,.... "Jack," said Buck, "you're nothin• but a baby." • "Shut up, yo' little niggers' she cried: I could not repress a smile at the re-: tort,• seeing which, Jack realized the absurdity "of it all and broke into a'• . laugh, while the tears continued to run down her cheeks. • "Won't yo' let me support yo' against. the jolting?" asked Captain Beaumont ruefully. "Yo'?" Do yo' suppose I'd let yo' touch me? Yo' sbot my, best. friend." • "Do yo' dislike me fo'' shooting -a" robber?" asked her admirer sadly. 9 hate yo'." Beaumont settled down in a corner of the. wagonin despondency. After awhile Jack slid .down beside him,'. whereupon he suddenly lighted up and took as much interest In our flight' asp any one of the 'party. • : • • -: We were-a•°wild-looking-load-to-tbe- few' people who passed ns. Whenever' we saw a farm wagon coming or going' we would shout to its driver to. get out of the way. They most have. supposed our horse to be a runaway, for every one quickly turned aside. There are pictures of that ride which I • can see today, .so vividly were they stamped on my memory. An old man with his hands on the handle of his plow gaped through iron .rimmed spectacles, a :wo• man in a check gown and sunbonnet stopped trimming plants in her gar- den and stood with the shears In her hand to gape at tea as If we were a• fist rty of witches whohad lit on. the earth from the moon and were masking • ready to take to the sky ,again.

We bad fought these fiends oil for days, we bad es- eaped from them to a coveted 'protec- tion, and now, at the last moment they bad struck us severely.

In a moment another follow- ed.. We could not see if there were any more, for we passed over the sum- unit. Not far below a milestone told es that ft was oue mile to Decherd. "One mile to their two. Can we not do it, driver?" 1 asked quickly. The -only answer was another "Git pop!" and renewed hammering on the horse's rump. The eyes of all were j rained to the rear, watching to see ivat what chance there was from time to time between life and death, while. 1 examined the carbines, which we bad' taken care to'bring with us, to disco' -' er if they were in good condition. At , every rise we could see either one or mare men confine like the wind. The*' hed evidently caught sight of us and were straining every nerve to catch us before we reached Decherd. I told the blacksmith, to lay it on hard, Well knowing that between us and our pur- suer!' was only the life of his horse. He was raising his whip when the horse stumbled and fell, pitching most/ of Us out of the Wagon, fortunately o soft ground. Getting up and running to the prostrate animal, I found him stone dead. We were still a quarter of s nide [tem the town, and the gueirlila,l would be on ns in a jiffy.

A doctor with a satchel in bis band got down and ap- proached Jaqueline. Making a hasty examination of the wound, he ban- daged it. then told us to lift her into the vehicle. The seats, except the front one, had been removed and their cush- ions placed on the bottom. Some of the cavalrymen tossed in their blan- kets, and I smoothed them over the cushions, making a comparatively com- fortable bed. We placed little Jack up- on it. Helen got in with her, and, the rest of us walking beside, the cavalry acting as escort, we bore .per to the town and lodged her In a room in the main hotel of the place. We found the town agog with news of the first day's battle at Pittsburg Landing, and I knew that my general would Mold himself ready to co-operate. I determined to join my command at once. Having been assured that Jack's wound would not prove fatal, 1 ar- ranged for the transportation of the, party as soon as she 'could be moved. then gathered my little force in her room and announced my intended de- parture. • "I must now bid farewell," I said, "to my .little army, every one of Whom has become dearer to me than life." "Like General George Washington," said Buck, "sayin farewell to his oss!- fers. There is a picture of it in my American school history." "Goodby, Buck. Remember to get a book and pencil and !freak yourselfof the habit of saying bad words." "I will, by thunder!" "Goodby,little girl,". 1 said to Jack, bending down and kissing her on the forehead. "Where yo' gong?" "1? Oh. I'm going •away." Helen's eyes were gleaming. "Where are you going?" she asked, repeating Jack's question, though in a different tone. I had manazed .to ken my eonnenrr,,r , - •^F eep--oii',-z--cried- Helen;--"mud--give- her air." "Jack," cried Buck, terrified at ber ghastly appearance, "wake up!" 1, with a soldier's knowledge of the. thirst of a wounded person, . dashed away in a hunt for water. I found a weil in a yard on the outskirts of the town and, drawing the staple to the chain that held a tin cup, brought a plentiful supply. Helen was still sup- porting her cousin. Buck was striding about nervously, with bis hands thrast down into his pockets; while Capti,llr Beaumont was kneeling, his eyes peer- ing into Jack's as though by his gaze he would hold the life that lie dreaded was ebbing away. • I sprinkledwater in her face, and .she opened her eyes, looking about her as if unable to under- stand her surroundings. "What's the matter?" Curiously enough; the words were the same as those I had first heard her ut- ter when; wounded, I reclined on a sofa at her home. "You're hurt, Jack," said Helen. "Am I going to die?" "Oh, no, dear. I hope not." "Don;t die," said Beaumont in a bro- ken voice. "Don't leave me. I couldn't bear it" she looked nn into his face sadiv.

Going to a front win- dow and dropping a curtain so that I could look into the road without being seen, I took a view of the situation. The guerrillas were scattered about the town, some riding around the bonsai bunting for us, others sitting on their horses, questioning the inhabitants as to our whereabouts. Captain Ringoid" was in command. A negro boy was playing "bopscotcb" en the sidewalk. The captain called to him: "Yo' boy thar, didn't:eyo' see anybody, go this way awhile ago?" "Two women an a boy 'bout big as me?" "Yee" "An a white man an a colored man? "Yes. Which way did they go?" "Dey's gwine rigbt 'long dar." And be pointed to a path leading across the road westward. •-b• "Here, you." cried the captain to two men who were watering their horses at a wooden trough in front of the ' shop, "strike out on that path." .7--Tiie'men dii ed away: leuvilig fif captain alone In the road. A little old woman came out of a house opposite and began to guy him in a cracked voice, poking fun at him for not being able to catch a party of women. She talked so familtarly with bim that .1 began to suspect she knew him. 1 trembled for fear she would betray us. "You tms ain't wo'th a persimmon," she said. "With them critters' legs un- der yer, yer orter ketch wimmen folks easy." "We'll catch ',em easy enough. They've gone along thar," pointing to the path his men were just dashing into. "Th' didn't go that a -way." "They didn't? Which way did they go?" "D' yer s'pose I give fac's fo' noth- in?' • A cold chill ran down my back. She was going to tell for pay. "What do yo' want?" "Gimme 'puff fo' a caliker dress, an I'll put yer on th' right track." "She'?" "Sart'in." "This '11 git it as easy." He drew a revolver and put it to her face. She drew back. But this man, who was above his calling, never could persist in ill treating a woman, and. lowering his weapon, be put his hand in his pocket and polled out a bill. "That's the stuff ter git fac's with," said the woman. "Now, you uns git right 'long thar," and she pointed up the road northward. "That won't do," said the captain. "We just came from up thar." There was n pause, at the end of which I heard the woman say In a low tone: "Captain!" The voice was familiar. I saw the man start, then exclaim, "Great God!" The old woman went over to him .. and, taking bold of his bridle rein, be- gan to whisper to him earnestly.' Pres- ently I heard the captain say: "1 can't do !t" There was more whispering, and by the woman's attitude I knew she was Pleading. Was she pleading for us? If so, who could this good friend be to take so much interest in us? "I'd do It fo' yo' an yo' friend, but not the other one." She fumbled with tine rein, she strok- ed bis horse's neck, she laid her hand on his, ail the while talking earnestly and looking up into his eyes, I fancied beseechingty, though I could not see her face, for her bads was toward me, while tbe man's head was drooping lower and lower. Her bonnet fell back on her neck, and I knew the old wom- an was Jaqueline. "Can yo' refuse when I ask itr she said loud enough for me to bear. The man was silent The struggle .a wnnln °film was plain In every line of his face. At last he said:. "Po' yo' sake, little one, I'll do It." She took bis rough brown band in her little white one and bent ber head down upon it, then looking up through tears: "I Fan give yo' only a trifle in reward, captain, dear. Kiss me." Bending from his saddle, he rever- ently touched his lips to her forehead.. Lost in wonder at the strange sight, 1 was nevertheless congratulating my- self that she had securedthe man's promise to draw off his force when the Whole advantage was spoiled through the insane jealousy of Captain Beaumont It seems that the captain had disdained to bide with the rest. Indeed be bad ne occasion to hide.. The guerrillas did not know thht he was with our party, and he was in no more danger from them than any other man would be. He bad, however, yielded to Jack's persuasion to go Into a house and keep out of sight Wben the guer- rillasrode Into town, he was sitting by a window sipping a glass of Tennessee whisky, and at the moment Ringold imprinted the kiss en Jack's forehead, as ill luck would bave it, he happened to look out of the window. In another moment he was in the road'discharging his revolver at 'the guerrilla, who. drawing his own weapon, returned the Ore. A fusillade followed, Ringold re- (eiving a wound that put him hors de combht. Swaying in his saddle, he fell fainting to the ground. Jaqueline turned upon Beaumonthike a fury. I have seen little Jack to many a towering passion, but never anything like this. Her face was livid, ber eyes flaming. She tried to speak, but her ire choked ber. At last one word ex- pressive of her pent up feelings came. out like a pistol sbot: "Pigs Having thus relieved herself to Cap- tain Beaumont, she turned to the pros- WM& Swayfno in his saddle; he felt fainting to the ground,. o • trate Ringold;' knelt beside him, croon-. ing over him as if be had been dearer , to her than all the world beside. • At this moment a guerrilla, who had doubtless been attracted by the firing, dashed down -the - -road.--Beanmont- caught sight of him just as Jack had hurled ber opprobrious epithet.

But Jack turned- her back on him. When the thing began, . with one bound, disguised and bei as was, I cleared my window. When' Ringokll fell, I.was jolned•by the other members or our party from the houses.'. Buck had blackened himself for a, ne-' gro, and it was he who -had answered 'Rif•;fg+oid's questions. Helen and Ginger' had hidden without disguise. The peo- ple of the town, one man and eight wo- men, besides children, rushed into the road. I knew well that the absence Of the guerrillas was but temporary; that they would soon come down on us. In s• body. "We have no time to lose," I cried.' "We mita get away at once." "Where- "Anywhere." Turning to the townspeople, I asked if they could furnish a conveyance. 'I've a horse and wagon in my shed,", said the smith. "Out with it, quick!" Every one Of us took a hand in hart pate taut itis team. and in three mantes by tee clock we bad. itnished. • Then we all tumbled in, except Jack. who, tleclnred she would never leave her friend, Captaln Ringold, There was no tinge to bandy words, so I took her up and tossed her into the wagon, where site fell in a beep. Rising or ber knees, she shook her clinched dal at me and: cried to the wounded guer- rilla that she would come back to him ae seen as sbe could get away. Mean- while the blaeksmith was driving us dowu the road, belaboring his horse with the stump of an old whip. CHAPTER XXI. A STERN cissas. STIt,AIGHT read lay before Be Ai' to Decherd, a few miles tautThe ce was dis- la 'of too . p great importance for the guer- rillas rillas to dare miter, and if we could reach it before they could catch us we should be safe. -How much is your horse worth?" 1 asked the blacksmith. , "A. matter o' saxty dollars." "If you kill him by hard driving, I'll give you a hundred, and if you get us to Decherd before the outlaws can catch us I'll make It a hundred more." "Weel, noo, 1 don't want to be hhrd on a mon flyin for his life and wimmen 'folk too. 1'll do the best I can and ask no money," • - With that be belabored the poor horse's flanks with the stump of his whip and sent him galloping onward. There were no springs to the Wagon, but we valued our lives too well to draw rein at rut or stone. At one part of the road 1 feared that if we did not cbeck our pace we would break a wbeel and be left with no means to get on save our legs. I' cautioned the driver to slacken his pace; but. bearing or fancying be beard the clattering or :horses' boots behind, without a we .d • from me he applied the lash.

"Don't ye know ye're graggin bonny teddies flyfn for their lives?" And down came the butt of the whip. It was harrowing to see'a horse forced to „give his life to save ours, but our situ- ation was too critical to 'warrant any slackening of speed. Jack, who•of all our force was usually most frightened at danger ahead and world fight it most vigorously when face to face with ft, for once acted to reverse at seeing "the'poor brute making leapsthat were killing him. "Stop beating that horse, you brute," she cried, "or I'll beat you!" And she sprang forward to seize the whip. I caught her in 'my arm's. , Sbe looked up into my • face and burst into tears., Whether ,it was wholly sytnpathy or overstrained nerves 1 did not know; probably both. , At any rate, I protect- ed ber from the jolting by,keeping her ,in my arms, while.she bid her faces* • that she could not see the. suffering: --horse--,.,-.-:--_....x --- .. ..v....;m ..,.... "Jack," said Buck, "you're nothin• but a baby." • "Shut up, yo' little niggers' she cried: I could not repress a smile at the re-: tort,• seeing which, Jack realized the absurdity "of it all and broke into a'• . laugh, while the tears continued to run down her cheeks. • "Won't yo' let me support yo' against. the jolting?" asked Captain Beaumont ruefully. "Yo'?" Do yo' suppose I'd let yo' touch me? Yo' sbot my, best. friend." • "Do yo' dislike me fo'' shooting -a" robber?" asked her admirer sadly. 9 hate yo'." Beaumont settled down in a corner of the. wagonin despondency.

Whenever' we saw a farm wagon coming or going' we would shout to its driver to. get out of the way. They most have. supposed our horse to be a runaway, for every one quickly turned aside. There are pictures of that ride which I • can see today, .so vividly were they stamped on my memory.

Can we not do it, driver?" 1 asked quickly. The -only answer was another "Git pop!" and renewed hammering on the horse's rump. The eyes of all were j rained to the rear, watching to see ivat what chance there was from time to time between life and death, while. 1 examined the carbines, which we bad' taken care to'bring with us, to disco' -' er if they were in good condition. At , every rise we could see either one or mare men confine like the wind. The*' hed evidently caught sight of us and were straining every nerve to catch us before we reached Decherd. I told the blacksmith, to lay it on hard, Well knowing that between us and our pur- suer!' was only the life of his horse. He was raising his whip when the horse stumbled and fell, pitching most/ of Us out of the Wagon, fortunately o soft ground. Getting up and running to the prostrate animal, I found him stone dead. We were still a quarter of s nide [tem the town, and the gueirlila,l would be on ns in a jiffy.

A doctor with a satchel in bis band got down and ap- proached Jaqueline. Making a hasty examination of the wound, he ban- daged it. then told us to lift her into the vehicle. The seats, except the front one, had been removed and their cush- ions placed on the bottom. Some of the cavalrymen tossed in their blan- kets, and I smoothed them over the cushions, making a comparatively com- fortable bed. We placed little Jack up- on it. Helen got in with her, and, the rest of us walking beside, the cavalry acting as escort, we bore .per to the town and lodged her In a room in the main hotel of the place. We found the town agog with news of the first day's battle at Pittsburg Landing, and I knew that my general would Mold himself ready to co-operate. I determined to join my command at once. Having been assured that Jack's wound would not prove fatal, 1 ar- ranged for the transportation of the, party as soon as she 'could be moved. then gathered my little force in her room and announced my intended de- parture. • "I must now bid farewell," I said, "to my .little army, every one of Whom has become dearer to me than life." "Like General George Washington," said Buck, "sayin farewell to his oss!- fers. There is a picture of it in my American school history." "Goodby, Buck. Remember to get a book and pencil and !freak yourselfof the habit of saying bad words." "I will, by thunder!" "Goodby,little girl,". 1 said to Jack, bending down and kissing her on the forehead. "Where yo' gong?" "1? Oh. I'm going •away." Helen's eyes were gleaming. "Where are you going?" she asked, repeating Jack's question, though in a different tone. I had manazed .to ken my eonnenrr,,r , - •^F eep--oii',-z--cried- Helen;--"mud--give- her air." "Jack," cried Buck, terrified at ber ghastly appearance, "wake up!" 1, with a soldier's knowledge of the. thirst of a wounded person, . dashed away in a hunt for water. I found a weil in a yard on the outskirts of the town and, drawing the staple to the chain that held a tin cup, brought a plentiful supply. Helen was still sup- porting her cousin. Buck was striding about nervously, with bis hands thrast down into his pockets; while Capti,llr Beaumont was kneeling, his eyes peer- ing into Jack's as though by his gaze he would hold the life that lie dreaded was ebbing away. • I sprinkledwater in her face, and .she opened her eyes, looking about her as if unable to under- stand her surroundings. "What's the matter?" Curiously enough; the words were the same as those I had first heard her ut- ter when; wounded, I reclined on a sofa at her home. "You're hurt, Jack," said Helen. "Am I going to die?" "Oh, no, dear. I hope not." "Don;t die," said Beaumont in a bro- ken voice. "Don't leave me. I couldn't bear it" she looked nn into his face sadiv.
