CHAPTER XIH.--(Cont'd.) "He ha da boat; he wants to say, "1 was a humble man; I took fish on hooks and in nets" Barney wrote out his next question before saying it aloud: "Maneto o mikweniman no nossan gaie nin- gaian?" "He wants fo say," replied the voice, "I have never heard of father." 'Ninga?" "He says, 'Yes.' He says, 'Mother J knew; mother came to shore bear- ing' child; not born child, he says; 'she was very sick. I took her in eanoe, that is." "What did he do for my mother?" "He says, 'Took her to my house #n the lonely place where was wo- man, my wife' He says, 'There boy was born; you stayed there.'" "What happened to my mother?" "She was very sick, but she did not dle, she went away." "When?" "At the moon of the wild rice gath-| ering." "When she went away, he means?" "Yes" "Then wken did she come?" "In the moon of the breaking snow- " "What year?" The medium made no direct an- swer; but after a pause the Voice continued: "He says that all summer she fed the bahy at her breast till she went sick again. He wants to tell you that she said, when she went away, she: surely would return. He says, 'There 1 lived until water froze again' He says, 'But no one came back; so I went away." "Where did you go?" Barney eried quickly, as the .medium's picture changed; gone from her, as surpris- ingly as they had come, were the slight motions of her hands, the jerk- ings and mannerisms which had char- acterized the presence of the "control." Mrs. Davol slowly sat upright and gazed dully about like an ordinary, overfed woman making an apparent effort of memory to recognize her callers. "Well, dearie," she said at last to Ethel, "Did you get satisfied? Was there good results?" Ethel realized, with a gasp, that the seance was over. CHAPTER XIV, "You think we'd better have Kin- cheloe arrested?" Ethel asked Barney when she returned home. "I'd like to kifow what he's doing now," Barney said, "Oh, Bennet's told me. He's having his sort of a fast time. That part of left to wait; for you 3 "But this which we learned tonight, Barney, helps a lot; your mother came --with you," she added gently, "to the shore there beyond St. Florentin, In boa acros the channel to Resurrection Rock where he and his wife took care of her. You were bora there; in Sep-~ tember your mother was sick. She did not die--there, at least. But she went away and did not come back, though Nosh Jo waited there until winter--"' y "November," he meant," Barney of water; that is the Chippewa name for November--the moon of the freez- ing again" ] "I see. And then, as he Was a nomad, he went away and took you he died--now. you're coming to affairs you learned from Azen Mabo--and gave you to Azen without being able to tell anything about you but that the ring went with you. We really got a lot tonight, dMin't we, Barney?" "I've got," Birney said, his hands still clenched behind him, "more than I ever had/in all my life before." He moved a little nearer her, "I mean from you--Mise--Ethel Carew, You're a strange girl; the finest and noblest in the world," he added quick- ly. "You turned against your own people, and you trusted mel" "You, Barney? Why not? could I help it?" "Don't!" he warned swiftly. How "I've J. Q."

"You mean whether I believed those were the circumstances of my birth? Yes, I did, Miss Carew." "Who could the Indian be? Jo?" ' "I suppose 80." He stood up and, turning his back to Eethel, he strode away, as he had a habit of doing when beset by emo- sion, "You see-- you see-- Miss Carew, it hadn't occurred to me then that I--" "What, Barney?" "That I might have been born on $he Rock, Miss Carew." "Barney!" Ethel rebuked him by his own name gently. "Barney." "You can't want me to call you--" "I can't?" "Ethel)" he said, hardly whispering it; but she heard. "Ethel!" he clenched his hands behind him, and she step farther back, "That's the way 1 was born, 1 believe." "Let's believe it, Barney!" "Miss Carew!" "1 don't mind believing it, Barney! It doesn't change you! Except to make you finer!" "Finer?" "Because you've had to doit all yourself! Don't you see how I--" she faltered a little and substituted--"how every one must admire you only more for that! Besides, my people are to blame." | "How do you mean?' he asked quickly. | "They must be.

"How do you think about me, Bar- i "Think?" he repeated. "I don't think about you. I eant. I love-- love--love you! There, I've said it)" He snatched his hands apart behind him and struck them together before him in his dismay. "You love me, Barney?" she said. "Love you! Love you!" "1 love you, Barney. I've loved you from our first morning together, I think." "No; no; nol" he tried to deny her; but she only smiled up at him and said: "Yes; you've known that, Barney. That's been what's troubled you; not that you loved me, but that it was so plain that I loved you." X "So plain!" he denied, almost furi-|. ously, for her. "It wasn't. It's not true now!" "Oh, isn't it? Do you suppose I'm ashamed," . He dropped to his knees before her and caught her hands and held them. He bent his head and drew her hands to his lips; and his kiss, though not at all like the first love kiss she had dreamed to be hers some day, brought her amazing ecstasy.
