In the few days that followed
Lois regained her strength rapidly.
Apart from the quantity of blood
she had lost, the wound was a su-
perficial one, and youth and the
pure mountain air contributed alike
to a quick recovery.
lure. It seemed sufficient to both
of then to enjoy that perfect com-
sadeship that had sprung ap be-
tween them. The only shadow
over the girl's mind appeared to be
her inability to attend Hooker's
funeral in Mescal.
"Of course, I always knew I
wasn't his daughter - at least, I
knew Mrs. Hooker was not my
mother, after I found this.'

gold locket from a cord about her
neck, opened it; and handed it to
Dave, Inside was the faded photo-
graph of a young woman. It was
a pretty face, but rather a hard
one, and there was a marked re-
semblance to Lois.
"I remembered her, after I found
this locket," said the girl,
"You say you found this:,"" asked
Dave, handing her back the locket.
"Where did yuh find it?"
"Not a hundred yards away from
here, lying on a ledge under a heap
of dead leaves."
"It's • queer," said Dave. "Yui
got no idea how it could have got
here?"
"I've racked my brains trying to
imagine.. Unless my mother was
some relative of Mr. Louergan's,
and gave him the locket, and he
dropped it here. You see, Mr. Lon-
ergan made the Hookers adopt me
and bring pie here. But why should
he have conte here? He's never
been here since, nor anyone. I'm
sure nobody in Mescal knows of
its existence."
"Well,"
said Dave,
"things have
a way of contin' to light. Some
day we'll know. You sure had a
tough break, girl, not even knowin'
yho yore dad was, and livin' up in
these mountains. Did- yuh ever fig-
ure on what yuh were goin' to do
In fife?"
"I never figured on getting away,
Dave, till Mr. Hooker died, Nor
till you came," said Lois. "I hat -
cd the men wleo used to conic
around pie when I was in Mescal,
or over at the Cross -Bar,"
* * 5
Dave tried to keep hack the
words, but they seemed to come
apontaneously from his lips; "Just
before Mr. Hooker died he made
pec promise that I'd look out for
yuh. I told him of course I would,
When I first see yuh, Lois, all
worked up over Black Dawn, and
madder at me than a hornet, I and

girl I'd ever wanted.

"I wanted to ride away with, you
and have you with me for the rest
of otlr lives. Do you think - do
yuh think yuh'd take a chance on
me when we get away front here?
Then,suddenly, looking into the
girl's huninous eyes, Dave knew
that she loved him,, and that every-
thing was going to be well with
thein, no spatter, what trials might
still lie ahead 'of them.
He drew her 'into his arms, and
she laid her head 'upon his 'shotil-
der, face 'upturned to his:
"Yph ain't -ain't cryin' girl?"
"I reckon I am," she answered,
"I'm so happy, Dave I didn't know
1 could be happy like this. I never
cried for anybody ':else, and I've
cried twice for your'
"Twice? I made yult cry?"
"The first time was' when 1 was
sure you hadnt' killed Mr. Hooker,
And both times have made me
happy, I don't want to leave you
ever."
* * *
After a while he heard her
breathing deeply and regularly, and
found that she had fallen asleep.
He sat there, holding her tightly,
till the pale light of dawn came
creeping into the cave.
"There's a mesa in the moun-
tains about a utile away, that I
don't think anyone except myself
,has ever seen," said Lois that af-
ternoon. "I think we'll take the
horses there. The grass is 'pretty
well gone front here, and they'll
need some good grazing before we
start."
"You'll be able to ride in about
a couple of days more, honey," said
Dave. "Is there a trail through
the mountains to the other side?"
Los nodded. "I found it, too,"
:he said, "It runs right through
across the Border, Dave. 'We'll
never have to go back to Mescal,
and nobody will dream we've come
through the mountains.

Dave didn't relish the idea of
alight. But for Lois, he would pro-
bably have scouted about the Mes-
cal district by night, in the hope of
unearthing the clue to Hooker's
murder. He was pretty well con-
vinced that whoever had killed the
old man would return to the cabin
or betray himself in solne manner.

Lois nodded, her face aglow, then
hid it hi Dave's shoulder. The gol-
den minutes ran by unheeded. At
last,t when the sun was dipping to-

horses. Both came cantering to
Lois at her whistle, and the two
remounted and rode back of their
cave.
