And when the "wind rose at my dcor, Jt clamored with a plaintive din, Like some poor creature begging sore To be let in: 1 let it in.

Hfeotting against me," he ggike as not old Scraggs has Blatchford, and they Hs train to meet him. By r\ ? AT* iff I UV/VbVA *w ^ to gain time on mo." I was a fool not. to know that sooner. Well, if Blatchford ia coming I've pot to be goiug. This town ain't big enough to hold us both." With that Pearson quickly dismounted and running down through the stable turned down an aUey and crossed the railroad track iust before the train passed. Taking- a position on the opposite side from the depot he watched the passengers as they left the cars. First a traveling man came out, then a woman and two children, and it seemed that that was all, and Pearson began to congratulate himself again. But his congratulations were short lived, for directly another passenger emerged, and Pearson knew only too well who it was. There was no mistaking Blatchford, mmoug-a nc T% as su auu t?^v?. so woefully changed from what he had been when Pearson saw him last. "Curse the luck," Pearson muttered, "and old Scraggs and I>ascom. The jig is up for mo. I've got to tly from here, and IVe lost Louise; but I've got Platchford's money." So sayir.g he slipped on board the train as it moved Out, and was whirled away from Magic City forever. Blatchford was conducted without delay to Scraggs' office whore everything was explained to him. He listened quietly to the whole story, but as Scraggs revealed to him the sufferings of .Tnhn (Jrotm's familv and the villainy of Harry Pearson, the old man's face grew ashy and his gray head dropped s low on his breast, while ever and anon x-- a heartrending groan escaped him. It was a minute or two after Scraggs finished his hurried account before the old man moved or spoke, but at last he raised his head and cried: i "My God! my God! how I have sinned. My child dying of want, and the -viper I have warmed to my breast betraying my child's child to ruin. This is more than I can stand, men; I cannot bear it another instant. Show me this scoundrel, and I'll put a bullet through his black, villainous heart. Come, I must see him." It was all Seraggs and 'the doctor could do to get the old man quieted down, but at last they succeeded in inducing him to list-en to reason, and Scraggs unfolded his plan of procedure. "Pearson is going to Greer." > to-night after the girl, and we must arrange to get there before him. "We can never see him here, for he will be in hiding, but we can head him oil there. For fear he may get there before us and miss ns on the road, I will have men on the watch for him at the depot with inctniMinnc tn dctuin him if lie comes back there. In that, way everything1 will be safe, and we'll eat^h him somewhere in the round." This proposition was readily agreed to by all. and then Scraps continued: "We want to get away from here without attracting- attention, so while I>r. Bascom conducts Mr. Blatehford to his house to await us, Paul and I will secure a carriage and drive out that way. F*om the doctor's house we will proceed to Green's. ZS'ow. let's get out of here and begin to move."
