SECciND IN^ALLMENT
“This is Angus Macksy's lass,
Pierre,” announced Pat.
Pierre Buschard murmured a sonor
ous greeting and bowed clumsily. ~
-Ellen smiled and advanced cl^ to
tihV giant riverman. “Ybu are going
to help me, Pierre?”
“Oui, oui, mam’seMe,” rumbled the
big fellow. “M’sieu Beiiham, he’s be

“Pierre now mam’selle, and we must

Ellen, victim to a sudden tumultod^
thrill, scurried away and donned hfer
macITinaw and cap. Back in the big
room she stood on her tiptoeu and.
pecked Pat McClatchney on ope whis
kery cheek with her r^ pipped lips.
“I’ll remember this, Pat,” she prom
ised.
“ ’Tis little enough, laSs. Now stick
to your guns and I gSmble this wkll
come out well enough. I feel sure of
your safety, for whatever else he may
be, John Benham is a gentleman and
the finest riverman in the north. Noyr.
1 un along with Pierre and do just as
be says. He has already taken care of
your luggage.”
Pat gave Ellen’s arm a squeexe and
shook hmids with Pierre Buschard.
The next thing Ellen knew Pierre had
taken her by the elbow and was guid-
ing^her steps down the sloping bank
OX the river.
It was still out there, vastly except
for the ceaseless beat of the river,
while the night throbbed to-the power
of the limitless wiWemess which
stretched away to tHb north. A faint,
haunting, quavering note drifted
down from among the massed stars.
The geese were winging north. AM
things were heading north, even she!
KMen found herself thrilling with s
and lacking in outline, somewhat like
a half-remembered dream. Suddenly
she realized that the inexplicable
restlessness which had actuated hpr
during those four years had beenj
nothing else but a form of nostalgia., , , . , ,. , .

Presently rivermao' ceased his
song, and then all the multitude of
-lesser sounds became manifest. The
noe pulled up- on the shore, and in
the bow of this Pierre placed the pH.
Then he shoved off, balancing himself
deftly in the stem, while he lifted and

of the river, but heided against |h«

Ahead a jutting poin^loomed. Still

the nearest scow. Silently Pierre Bus
chard stepped to the scow and held
the Peterborough firm.
“Come, mam’selle,” he whispered.
Ellen stepped out beside him. Pierre
indicated the massed cargo of. freight
upon the' scow. He lifted up one edge
of the tarpaulin which covered the
pile. “Under here,” he breathed. “You

now, quick.
Her heart beating thunderously, El
len crept beheath the edge of the tar-
patdin and crouched quietly. She felt
the^elight quiver oT the aedw as Pierre
left it. Alone now. Alone! Definitely
committed to the great adventure.
The future might bring — anything,
but queerly enough, Ellen felt no fear.
Only a atirring anticipation.
She remembered those strangef
they rested on her—what wqirid they
mirror? Surprise, yes. Anger—almost
surely. Yet Ellen felt comfort some
how.
HfjL perturbation left her. In itf place
came a flood of warm, dancing thrills.
She began humming softly, keeping
time with the cadence of tlM song the
deepohested riverman was singing. It
was the wild song of the river bri
gades, the Chanson-de Voyageur. And
it meant that the scows of John Ben-
ham’s brigade wree at last freed of
their tethers; that they were now
part and parcel of the great spring
migration into the distant wilderness
of the Three River country
The chill of early morning was still
in the air, and Ellen was grateful for
the.vriirmth of her hlankets.She lay

Buschard grinning broadly and wav

headed 'in towards her own. When the
scows were'^still a good three yards
apart, a big, bare-headed figure clear
