In doing that, 1 hoped to lose myself from them. 1 wanted to go unhindered to some country where I wouldn't be considered a?a savage, y'know. "I went out to the train-shed, and 1 hadn't been there a minute when ^Bobby McLaurin came. I asked him how he knew where to tind me. lie said: " 'I thought you wouldn't care to stay here after doing what you did, and I wanted to say good-by, Bill.' He always called me that, and It made me feel like a man.

He looked toward the closed Inner door and called, "Oh, Addle; you and the boys cau come back now." Out of the night a face appeared at one of tlie small windows. It wax a feminine face and handsome rather than pretty. Two slender, sunburned hands gripped the window-ledge nervously. The face pressed closer to the glass, then disappeared. 'Soon afterward the outer door of the guest's room opened, and Ben Llttleford's daughter entered. Her skirts were dripping wet. Mrs. Moreland arose and went toward the young woman. She knew that only something of great Importance could bring a Llttleford Into her home In this fashion. "What's the matter, Babe?" Babe Llttleford gave no attention to Mrs. Moreland. She went on to Bill Dale, wnlklng softly on bare feet. "Black Adam Is a-goln' to kill you tonight, BUI Dale." "That so?" Dale's smile was rather grim. "How did you find that out, Miss Llttleford?" "I found It out, all right. As he went ofT from the river this mornln', I made fun of him; and he patted the stock of his rifle and said he'd git you through a window! He was at our house this evenin' to help fix pap's gun, and when he left he started this way, a-goln' by the blowed-down sycamore. I waded the river at Blue Cat shoals to beat him here. 1 thought you might want to know about It, so's ye could mebbe save other folks the trouble o' makln' a funeral fo' ye."
