While the Supreme Court gives the pedestrian the right of way at a street crossing do not rely too strenuously on It. It Is possible to be right and dead, too. about the story. Ten years ago Ben Hooper's wife died and he sold his little farm up on th« High Bridge Road intending to move to town and buy an interest in Zeke Merrill's hard- ware business. It ho'd done that be would be on Easy Street now, for the "â-  »rdware businesiS has flourished and '2eke is dead. But he didn't do it. Instead, Earl Bixby happened to drop into Woodstock at just that particular time, heaxd about Hooper's twelve hundred dollars, and hurried right out to get it. Earl Bixby had foeeft born and raiEed here in the town, but he'd gone away and made money, or, to be more exact, he was beginning to make moriey. How much he made depended entirely on how much he could get his hands on. He was suppc'Sed to be a lawyer but was really a real estate speculator and promoter â€" a promoter of Earl Bixby chiefly. In his prosperous later life he probably would not have done what he did to Ben Hooper. I don't suppose he was essentially a mean man or a crook. He couldn't ha\'« been for he has built a stone library in Woodstock; he was simply a man constructed' of solid brass and concen- trated on looking after himsfelf.

Then the door banged and he mounted the seat of an ancient yellow bus and went rattling off into the spiring dusk amid a spatter of mud and lavish profanity. "Great Ben!" observed Ambrose Peck, leaning across the desk and gently sliding a cigar to the opposite extremity of his mouth. "Still getting even with Bixby," I â- miled. "Always is." "Strange how he keeps it up." . "He's been a lot worse since Earl bought the Adams place and comes back here to live summers. That's stirred Ben all up.

Peck fidgeted behind the desk and kept an eye on the door. The rattle died away in the direction of the stable at the rear of the building. Some minutes passed and I was filling my pipe absently.

He had a number of bundles under his arms and, somehow, through the tobacco smoke, he looked smalw and more shabby than usuaL Perhaps it was because we were all in a group and he was standing there alone. He stood quite still, staring at the atout man in the chair. He must have heard the last words. "Well, well, well!" shouted BLxby. "If there ain't my old friend Bennie Hooper. Old Ben Hooper!
