The Ljght
IN THE
Clearing
By
IRWING BACHELLER
(Continued from Vbat 'week,)
The examination of Amos was set
down for Monday and the people of
the village were stirred and shaken
by wildest rumors regarding the evi-
dence jo be adduced. Every day men
ane women stopped me in the street
to ask what I knew of the murder. I
followed the advice of Bishop Per-
kins and kept my knowledge to my-
self.
My life went on at the same kind-
ly. merry pace in the home of the
techoolmaster. The bandages over
his eyes had in no way clouded Ms
spirit.
Ah, now, I wish that I could see
you," he said 'one evening when we
were all laughing at some remark of
his. "I love thei look of a merry
face."
1 continued to wear the mysterious
clothes of Michael Henry, save at
chore time, when 1 put on the spot-
ted suit of homespun. I observed
that it made a great difference with
my social standing. I was treated
with a greater deference at the school
and Elizabeth Aiten invited me to her
party, to which, however, I had nut
tiro ruurage to go, having no idea
what happened to one at. a village
party.
I asked a boy in my Latin class to
tell me.
"Oh, ye just fly around an' kiss
and git kissed till ye feel like a fool."
That settled it for me. Not that I
would have failed to enjoy kissing
Sally, but we were out, as they used
to say, and it would have embarrass-
ed loth of us to meet at a party.
Saturday came and, when the
chores were done, I went alone to
the grain barn in the back lot of the
Senator's farm with flail and mea-
sure and broom and fork and shovel
and sacks and on luncheon, in a
push cart, with all of which Mrs.
Wright had provided me.
I: was a lonely place with woods
m1 three sides of the field and a road
on the other. I kept laying down
bods of wheat on the barn -floor and
booting them out with the flail until
the sun was well over the roof where
i sat clown to eat my luncheon. Then
I swept. up the grain and winnowed
t. .Ipthe chaff and filled one of my
•asks. That done, 1 cot:ere:1 the fluor
naainainl1 the thump of the flail cas-
ed my loneliness until in the middle
of the afternoon two of my scho'4-
mates came and asked me to go
swimming with then!. The river was
not forty rods away and a good trail
led to the swimming hole. It was a
warm bright day and I was hot and
thirsty. The thought of cool waters
and friendly companionship was too
much for me I went with them.
More ancient than the human fbrm
is that joy of the young in the feel
of air and water on the naked akin,
in the frog -like leap and splash and
the monkey -chatter of the swimming
hole. There were a number of the
"swamp boys" in the water. They
lived in cabins on the edges of the
near swamp. I eta'yed with that
longer than I intended. I remember'
saying as I dressed that I should
have -to work late and go without my
supper in order to finish my stent.
It was almost dark when I was
putting the last sack of wheat into
my cart, in the gloomy barn, and get-
ting ready to go. •
A rustling in the straw near where
I stood stopped me suddenly. My
skir pricked and began to stir on my
head and my feet and handy felt numb
with a new fear. I heard stealthy
footsteps in the darkness. I stood
my ground and demanded:
"Who's there?"
I saw a form approaching in the
gloom with feet as noiseless as a .
cat's. I took a step backward and, •
seeing that it was a woman; stopped.
"It's Katz," the answer came in a
hearse whisper as I recognized her
form and staff.
"Run boy—they havf just come out
o' the woods. I saw them. They will
take you away. Run."
She had picked up the flail and
nc w she put it in my hands and gave I
me a push toward the `door. I ran,
and none too quickly, for I had not
gone fifty foot from the barn in the
str4:hlc when I hoard them coming
:,ftef me, whoever they were. 1 saw
that they were gaining and turner!
quckly. T had time to raise my flail
and bring it down upon -the head of
the leader, who fell as I had seen a
beef fall under the ax. Another man
stepped beyond the reach of my flail
and after a scsond's hesitation, turn-
er] and ran away in the darkness.
I mild hear or see no motion in
the field. i turned and ran on down
the slope toward the village. In a
moment I saw some one coming nut
of the maple grove at the field's end, •
jus' ahead, with a lantern.
Then I heard the voice of the
schoolmaster saying:
"is it you, my lad?"
"Yes," I answered, as I came up
to him and Mary, Inc a condition of
breathless excitement.
I told them of the curious adven-
ture I had had.
"Come quick," said the schoolmas-
ter. "Iet's go hack and find the man
in the stubble."
l remembered that 1 had struck the
path in my flight just before stop-
ping to swing the flnil. The man
must. have fallen very near it. Soon
we found where he had been lying
and drops of fres blood on the stub-
ble,
"Hush," said the schoolmaster.
We listened and heard a wagon rat-
tling at, a wild pace down the road
toward the river.
"There he goes," said Mr. Thicket.

went out of doors and must /rave italic -
ed together while I was .eating a bowl
of bread and milk which Mrs. Hacket
had brought to me.
When 1 went to bed, by and by, I
heard somebody snoring on the little
porch under my window. The 'first
sound that reached my ear at the
break of dawn was the snoring pf the
same sleeper. I dressed and went be-
low and found the constable in his
coon -skin overceat asleep on the porch
with a long -barreled gun at his side.
While I stood there the schoolmaster
came' around the corner of the house
from the garden. 'He smiled as he ffpFr.saw the Deacon.

ptian gods!" he exclaimed. "Look at

"Hie companions have carried him a -

now, yerself, my brave lad, if ye
h ain't 'a' made a lucky bit with the
flail—God bless ye!"
"What would they 'a' done with
me?" 1 asked.
"Oh, 1 reckon they'd 'a' took ye
MT, lad, and kep' ye for a year or ,5u

Mr Ilacket, "Maybe they'd drown-

ye, laddie buck. We'll have to keep
an eye on ye now, every day until the
trial is over—sure we will. Conte,
we'll go up tel tate barn ;old see if Kate
is there."
Just then we heard the receding wag-
on go roaring over the bridge on Little
Weer. Mary shuddered with fright.
The syhuolntaster reassured us by
saying:
Don't be afraid. I brought my gun
in case we'd meet a painter. But the
danger is past."
He drew a long pistol from his coat
pocket and held it in the light of the
lantern.
The loaded cart stood in the middle
of the barn floor, where I had left it,
but old Kate had gone. We closed the
barn, drawing the cart along wilth us.
When we came into the edge of the
village I begun to reflect upon the
strange peril out of which I had so
luckily escaped. It gave me a heavy

1 knew, or thought L,knew, why she
took such care of me. She was in
league w'i,� the !;allows and could not
bear to s - - t cheated of its prey. For !
some reason she hated the Grimshaws, --
I had seen the hate in her eyes the'
day she dogged along behind the old •
money -lender through the streets of '
the village when her pointing finger
had seemed to me to say: 'There,
there is the man who has brought me
to this. He has put these rags upoln
my back, this fire in my heart, this
wild look in my eye.,. Wait and you
shall see what I will put upon him."
I knew that old Kate was not the
irresponsible, witless creature that
people thought her to be. I had be-
gun
o-
gun to think of her with a kind of awe
as one gifted above all others. One
by one the things she had said of
the future seemed to be coming true.
When we had pulled the cart into
the stable I tried to shift one of the -
bags of grain and observed that my
hands trembled and that it seemed
very heavy.
As we were going into the house
the. schoolmaster said:
"Now, Mary, yeti take this lantern ti
and go across the street to the house
e' Deacon Binks, the constable. Yon
will find him asleep by the kitchen
stove. Arrest his slumbers, but not
rudely, and when he has come to, tell
him that I have news o' the devil."
"This shows the power o' know-
ledge, Bart," he said to me when w'e
entered the house.
I wondered what he meant and he
went on: ,
('You have knowledge of the shoot-
ig�ng that no other man hos. You
ck.uld sell it for any money ye would

tain the law, r can be as severe as
Napoleon Bonaparte and as cunning

I remember that through the m(frn-
ing's work the sleepy deacon and the!
alert constable contended over the
possession of his stout frame.
The constable shouldered the gun
and followed me into the pasture
where I went to get the cow. I saw
now that his !retention was to guard
me from furl er attacks. While I
was milking the deacon sat on a buck-
et ire the doorway of the stable and
snored until I had finished. He a-
woke when I loosed the cow and the
constable went back to the pasture
with me, yawning with his hand over
his mouth much of the way. The
deacon leaned his elbow on the top
of the pen and snored again, lightly,
while I mixed the feed for the pigs.
"Mr. Hacket met us at the kitchen
door, where Deacon Binks said to
him.
"If you'll loufl after the boy to -day,
111 ,go home and get a little rest."
tel the truth that day—never has it
been so hard. If 1 had had the riches
or Grimshaw himself I would have
given them to be relieved. Was there
nothing that I could do for Amos?
I observed that old Kate sat on a
front seat with her hand to her eat
and Grimshaw beside his lawyer at a
big, table and that when she looked at
him her lips moved in a strange un-
uttered whisper of her spirit. Her
face filled with joy as one damning
detail after another came out in the
evidence.
Aunt Deel and Uncle Peabody came -
to the village that day and sat in the
court room. They had dinner with us
at the schoolmaster's, but I had little
chance to talk with them. Aunt Deel
went up to my room with -me and sly-
ly gave me some fresh cookies wrap-
ped in a piece of newspaper which
she carried in a little basket bought,
from the Indians.
"Here's something' else," she said.
"I was keepin"'em for Chris'mas—
ayes!—but it's so cold I guess ye
better have 'em now—ayes("
I "Goal bless yer soul, ye had a busy Then she gave me a pair of mittens

smile. bands, and two pairs of socks.
He added as he went into the hour(: 1 remember that my uncle laugh- •
"1 never knew 0 man to rest with ed tet. the jests of 11r. Racket but

CHAPTER XII
..The spirit of Michael Heary and
others.
That last peril is one of the half-
solv'ed mysteries of my life. The fol-
it.wing affidavit, secured by an as-
sistant of the district attorney from a
young physician in a village above
Ballybeen, never a matter of record,
heightened its interest for me and
my friends. •
"Deponent saith that about eleven
o'clock on the evening of the 24th of
September (that on which the,'attack
upon me was made) a man unknown
to him called at his office and alleged
that a friend of the stranger had been
injured and was in need of surgical
aid. He further alleged that his
friend was in trouble and being sought
after and that he, the caller, dared
not, therefore, reveal the place where
his friend had taken refuge. He of-
fered the deponent the sum of ten
dollars to submit to the process of
biindfolding and of being conducted
tot said place for the purpose of giving
relief to the injured .,tan. Where-
upon the deponent declares that 110
submitted to said process and was
conducted by wagon and trail to a
hark shanty! at some place in the
woods unknown to him where the
bandage was removed from his eyes.
He declares further that he found
there, a strong -built, black -bearded
roan about thirty years of age, and a
stranger to him, lying on a bed of
boughs in the light of a fire and none
other. This man was groaning in
groat pain from a wound made by
some heavy weapon on the side of his
head. The flesh of the cheek and ear
wore swollen and lacerated. Depon-
ent further declares that he adminis-
tered an opiate\ and dressed and put
a number of sti'tehes in the injured
parts and bound them with a bandage
soaked with liniment. Then deponent
returned to his home, blindfolded as
h•` had left it. He declares that the
time consumed in the journey from
the shanty to his home was one hour
and ten minutes."
ft should he said that, in the them::
of the district attorney the effort to
retire the principal witness, if, indeed,
that were the intention of their pur-
suit of me, originated in the minds of
lawless and irresponsibe men. I know
that there are those who find a joy in
creating mysteries and defeating the
law; but let it be set down hero that
i hryve never concurred in the views
of t)iat able officer.
A'Mt the examination of Amos Grim -
;haw my knowledge was committed
to the records and ceased to be a
source of danger to me. Grimshaw
came to the village that day. On my
way to the court room 1 saw hire
waking slowly, with hent head as T
had seen him before, followed by old
Kate, She carried her staff in her
left hnnd while the forefinger of her
right ,van pointing hint out:. Silent
