They have been ca‘éhed among the woods all day between Poi- tou and Ste. Marie.” “Then we have come through them ?” “Yes, we have come through them. They would keep their camp today and send out scouts. Brown Moose and his son were among them and struck our trail. Tonight”â€" REFU “Tonight they will attack Ste. Ma- rie!” “It is possible. And yet with so small a party I should scarce have thought that they would have dared. Well, we can but hasten back as quick- ly as we can and give them warning of what is hanging over them.” And so they turned for their weary backward journey, though their minds were too full to spare a thought upon the leagues which lay behind them or those which were before. Dark as it was, Du Lhut walked as swiftly as during the sunlight and never hesitated about the track. His comrades could see, however, that he was taking them a different way from that which they had gone in the morn- ing, for twice they caught a sight of the glimmer of the broad river upon their left, while before they had only seen the streams which flowed into it. 011 the second occasion he pointed to I when: ("m the. farther side they'could see dark shadqm‘s. t,‘\/\4 ‘.“--_ "Iroquois canoes,” he Whispered. "There are ten Of them, with eight men in each. They are another party.” "HOW (10 you know that they are "How do you know that they are another party?" “Because we have crossed the trail of the first Within the hour.” Im (‘futinut was filled with amaze- ment at this marvelous man who could hear in his sleep and could detect a trail when the. very tree trunks were invisible to ordinary eyes. Du Lhut halted :1 little to watch the canoes and thou mrnedbhis hack to the river and plunged into the Woods once more un- til they mum to the edge of :1 moonlit ; cle::1riu::. Du let was about 10 skirt E this. as he had done others. when sud. i (leuly he caught De ('utiuut by the 3 shoulder and pushed him down behind ; a clump of sumac, while. Amos did the I same with Ephraim Savage. A man was walking;r down the other Side of the open space. He had just emerged and was crossing: it diagonal- i 1y, making in the direction of the riv- er. His body was bent double. but as he came out from the shadow of the trees they could see that he was an Indian brave in full war paint, with leggings, 10in cloth and musket. Close at his heels came a second, and then a third and a fourth, on and on. until it seemed as if the wood was full of men and that the line would never come to an end. Last of all came a man in the fringed tunic of a hunter. with a cap and feather upon his head. He passed across like the others. and they van- ished into the shadows. It was five minutes before Du Lhnt thought it safe to rise from their shelter. “By Ste. Anne!” he whispered. “Did you count them ‘3" V “Three hundred and ninety-six.” said Amos. “I made it 402.” “And you thought that there were only a hundred and fifty of them!” cried De Catinat. “Ah, you do not understand. This is a fresh band. The others who took the hlockhouse must be over there. for their trail lies between us and the river. In their camp there are now nearly 600 warriors. Unless we warn them at Ste. Marie these devils will lay some tr. 1)) for them. Their parties are assemhii 19: by land and by water. and there may he a thousand before (113- break. 'We must push on and gix’e our warning.” “They had one who was dressed like a white man, ” remarked Amos “Aye, and the most deadly of the lot. His father was a Dutch trader, his mother an Iroquois. and he goes by the name of the Flemish Bastard By Ste. Anne, I have a score to settle with him, and I may pay it before this business | is over.” CHAPTER XXII. AY was just breaking as the four comrades entered the gate 1 of the stockade, but early as it was the censitaires and their ' families were all afoot. De Catinat ; burst through the throng and rushed ‘ upstairs to Adele. who had herself = flown down to meet him, so that they met in each other’s arms. Together, with his arm around her, they ascended to the great hall. “Ah, monsieur,” said the old noble- man, with his courtly how, “I am in- deed rejoiced to see you safe under my root again, not only for your own sake. but for that of madame. You are doubtless hungry and weary. When You are yourself again, I must claim my revenge in piquet, for the cards lay agadnst me the other night." - ‘ fl- “cwvâ€"w .. But Du Lhut had entered at De Cn- tinnt s heels with his tidings of disas- “Tut. fut! We cannot allow our ar- rangements to be altered by a handful of savages,” said the seignenr. “I must apologize to you, my dear De Catinat, that you should be annozed ELY such tel ":‘You will have agother game to play, M. de Ste.

Ma- people wnue you are upon my' estate, Now, when I played piquet last with De Lannes of Poitou”â€"â€" “De Lannes of Poitou is dead, and all his people,” said Du Lhut. “The block- house is a heap of smoking ashes.” The seigneur raised his eyebrows. “I always told him that his fort would be taken unless he cleared away those maple trees which grew up to the very walls They are all dead, you say?" "Every man.” “And the fort burned?” “Not a stick was left standing.” “Have you seen these rascals?” “We saw the trail of a hundred and fifty. Then there were a hundred in canoes, and a war party of 400 passed us under the Flemish Bastard. Their camp is five miles down the river, and there cannot be less than 000.” “But they were not so fortunate in esmping us. We killed Brown Moose and his son.” “You are fortunate in escaping thmn.” “Excellent! Excellent!” said the seigneur, clapping gently with his dainty hands. “You have done very well indeed, Du Lhut. You are, I pre- sume, very tired?" “I am not often tired.” “Then perhaps you would pick a few men and go haek into the Weeds to see what these villains are doing?" “I shall be ready in five minutes.” “Perhaps you would like to {:0 also, Aehille‘f’ of Sherlock Holmes' Ilis son‘s dark eyes and Indian face lit up. “Yes, I shall go also,” he answered. “Very good. And we shall make all ready in your alisenoe. Madame, you will excuse those little annoyances which mar the pleasure of your visit. Next time that you do me the honor to come here I trust that we shall have cleared all these vermin from my es- tate. You will excuse. me now. as there are one or two things which demand my attention. De ("atinat you are a tried soldier. and I should be glad of your advice.” It was bright daylight now. and the ’. square inclosure within the stockade l was tilled with an anxious crowd who l, had just learned the evil tidings. The i scouting party under Du Lhut and. Achille de la None had already left, and at the orders of the seigneur the two gates were now secured with huge bars of oak fitted into iron staples on either side. The children were placed 1 in the lower storeroom with a few women to watch them, while the oth- ers were told off to attend to the fire buckets and to reload the muskets. The men had been paraded, fifty-two of them in-all, and they were divided Linto parties now for the defense of [each part of the stockade. On one side it had been built up to within a , few yards of the river, which not only relieved them from the defense of that iface, but enabled them to get fresh g water by throwing a bucket at the end ! of a rope from the stockade. The .1 boats and canoes of Ste. Marie were ; drawn up on the bank just under the 1 wall and were precious now as offer- lI ing a last means of escape should all , else fail. The next fort, St. Louis, was lbut a few leagues up the river, and l De la Noue had already sent a swift [messenger to them with news of the l danger. At least it would be a point on which they might retreat should the I worst come to the worst. L. 9’, And that the worst might come to the worst was very evident to so ex- perienced a woodsman as Amos Green. He had left Ephraim Savage snoring in a deep sleep upon the floor and was now walking round the defenses with his pipe in his mouth, examining with a critical eye every detail in connec- tion with them. The stoekade was very strong, nine feet high and closely built of oak stakes, which were thick enough to turn a bullet. Halfway up it was loopholed in long, narrow slits for the fire of the defenders. But. on the other hand, the trees grew to with- in a hundred yards of it and formed a screen for the attack, while the garri- son was so scanty that it could not spare more than twenty men at the z utmost for each face. His face dark- . ened as he thought of the young wife ;who had come so far in their safe keeping and of the women and chil- ; dren whom he had seen crowding into the fort. “Would it not be better if you could send them up the river?” he suggested 2 to the seigneur. . “I should very gladly do so, mon- sieur, and perhaps, if we are all alive, we may manage it tonight if the weather should be cloudy, but I can- I_10t spare the men to guard them and “You are right. It would be mad- ness.” , I cannot send them without a guard when we know that Iroquois canoes are on the river.” “I have stationed you on the eastern face with your friends and with fif- teen men. M. de Catinat, will you command the party?” “W illingly." “I will take the south face, as it seems to be the point of danger. Du Lhut can take the north, and five men should be enough to watch the river Side.” “Have we food and powder ‘1" “I have flour and smoked eels enough to see this matter,.thmnzh.
