PThe Captive s ßride'! | -1- A/ BARNETT WILLOUGHBY * I

CHAPTER XXXIII Denny knew that Van Cleve, despite his remarks to Rio, was not finding Tarnigan or anything else very desirable these days. His drawn face and his brooding dark eyes, as lifeless as his right hand resting motionless in its sling, gave evidence that he was in a particularly black mood this morning. Presently she got up and assuming a cheerfulness she did not feel, went into the card room. He was playing double Canfield, with a bottle of liquor, an empty glass and a siphon at his left elbow. He rose at her entrance, asking, “And how’s our frozen sepulchre affecting the mistress of River House this Yuletide?” "I never was happier in my life, Doctor, or more full of good will to men,” she declared. But she turned toward the window, so that his probing eyes had only the back of her silky dark head from which to judge of her real emotions. She ran the half-drawn shade up and facing him, again demanded, in tones of mock authority, “Now, sir, the chronometerl” The harsh lines about his mouth softened under his slow rare smile, and he handed her his watch. The morning and evening winding of the watch, inaugurated during those first days when the doctor’s awkward use of his left hand had made the task difficult for him, had become an established ceremony; one out of which had grown a mutual feeling of intimacy and understanding. After she had wound the timepiece and slipped it back into his pocket, she laid her warm hand over the bluish fingertips that protruded from the sling. “Better today. Van?” He jerked his head in an impatient negative. “No change. Don’t you know, Denny, that you’re guilty of criminal wastefulness in devoting so much of your time to a hopeless cripple 7” A light had come into his eyes, but she did not see it. Her gaze had been drawn to the window again, caught by a movement between the evergreens on the hillside across Tarnigan Creek. It was Bourne over there, in his green-and-white mackinaw. Now, as always, that glimpse of him out of doors made her forget what she was doing and sent a train of questions racing through her mind. What did he find out in the cold to engage his attention during the greater part of every day? Where did he go on those trips that sometimes took him into the wilderness to be gone a couple of days? He never told her anything about his absences. He treated her with neither more nor less consideration than he did his other guests; and he had not exchanged a word in private with her since before Thanksgiving. His reticence made her distrustful of him. Now, while she watched for his reappearance on the hillside, a detached corner of her mind listened to Van Cleve and dictated her answer to his last statement. “What nonsense is this about your being a hopeless cripple! Didn’t your splints come off two weeks ago? Aren’t you going to discard your sling tomorrow? What are you trying to do. Van—develop a fiine’ to appeal to my maternal instincts?” She laughed and patted his arm. Despite the animation in her voice, he preceived her detachment and the light went out of his eyes. With a flicking gesture of his fingers, he directed her attention to an old Indian trudging down the road past the front of the house. The native was returning from his trapline, a pair of snowshoes under one arm and the slim, dark body of a mink over his shoulder. “Look, Denny. One might say

that mink’s case wasn’t hopeless when he put his foot into the trap. The creature might have gnawed his foot off and freed himself to go on living—after a fashion. Not whole, but making some sort of compromise with life. But for me—life affords no compromise, no substitute for that which I lose through my crippled paw.” The word trap had made Denny fully alive to wisat he was saying. Little lines came at the corners of her eyes, as they narrowed to dwell on the sweep of country outside. “Van, you shouldn’t have stayed here this winter. That feeling of the trap—no one can escape it here, now that the river is so still and frozen. See the white miles of it out there —all of it crisscrossed by cruel traplines, cunningly hidden —waiting — catching little creatures — holding them. The whole country is a trap,” she went on tensely. "Cold, merciless, gripping you with soft white jaws that are stronger than steel. Surrounding you with impregnable walls of ice. Holding you —holding you—” She was gripping her hands until the knuckles showed pale, forgetful of Van Cleve, who was watching with the eyes of the skilled diagnostician, every change of her eloquent face, “So-o-o?” he murmured in a low voice. “You are the girl who was never happier in htr life I” At that moment Bourne again came into sight. He was lunging down the road toward River House, bent forward against the drag of a spruce tree that trailed on the snow behind him. Tongass, with the tip of one of the branches in his mouth, was also tugging forward, rendering questionable aid. The doctor changed the subject abruptly by remarking, “Here comes the skipper with the tree for the Commander’s Christmas party. I never before knew a man who was such a queer mixture of hardness and sentiment Instead of sending his Indians out to get that tree, he goes personally to select it, and then drags the thing in himself, when he might better bring it in on a dog sled. But I suppose he wanted the exercise." Denny nodded without comment After a moment she said, “I wonder if the Commander will get home in time to put on his festival for the youngsters tonight The blessed darling! His heart was set on it; and even though he made no complaint I know it was hard for him to abandon his preparations the other day and rush off fifty miles to the South Fork to deliver an Indian baby.” Denny really had little concern about the postponement of the affair; but she was touched by the gallantry of this one-time naval officer trying, against odds, to stage a real Christmas Eve in his barren log church for the pleasure of his solemn-eyed flock of savages. “I believe the Commander’s coming in now,” said Van Cleve. “Seel A dog team up on the rummit of the hill road 1 No—there are two teams. Probably only a couple of trappers coming in for their Christmas drunk.” Denny took up a pair of binoculars from a shelf and focused them on the ridge. “There's a man and a squaw on the lead sled,” she reported. “And, ohl What a beautiful team of huskiest... The man on the sled behind is—Yesl tie’s waving! It is the Commander. I recognize his white reindeer parka!" Bourne, outside the gate, had rolled the Christmas tree to one side of th« road and was flourishing his cap as he waited for the travelers to approach. On the lead sled an Indian woman sat muffled in blankets and wedged about by steel traps, bales of fur, and boxes of camp gear. The driver

stood on the runners behind and though he was using the brake on the down grade, he kept snapping his wrist to keep a long whip snaking over the backs of his huskies. He was a very tall, gaunt man with a wolflike furtiveness about him. As the outfit drew near, Denny was struck by the fact that Bourne, for the first time in her knowledge, failed to hail a newcomer with a hearty welcome. Instead, the two exchanged a flashing glance praisal and a guarded nod. Those nods expressed more of hostility than could have been packed into a dozen snarling sentences. She noted further that Tongass lifted his ruff and silently bared his fangs, not at the stranger’s dogs, but at the man himself. “An enemy!" was her conclusion. And before the fellow passed, she impressed his face on her memory i Long, leathery, with small pale eyes under bushy brows; a thin mouth, loose and flabby. And when he turned his head for a backward look at Bourne’s set, watchful face, his lip curled in a peculiar grin that o* posed a startling mouthful of teeth —every one of which was capped with gold. “Van! I’ve seen that man before!” Denny exclaimed. “He was on the dock the night we went downriver on the Maid. Ugh!, Those teeth —they give me the shivers!” Yet, despite her repugnance, her heart was quickening with hope; for she was also remembering the fellow’s remarks about Revelry Bourne. She was certain now that the trapper bore the river captain no good will; therefore he might be the means of her escape from Tarnigan. But she had no time to dwell on that now. The Commander, breezy and wholesome in his blizzard-bat-tered furs, had stopped at the gate and sent his Indian servant on to tho Manse with his dog team. He and Bourne were coming into the house. • • • • The Commander was seated at a small table Honey-jo had drawn up before the fireplace, telling about his journey as he applied himself to an excellent meal. Though Denny had listened to the missionary’s cheery account of his trip with interest and admiration, the portion of her brain that was always alert for some means of escape was busy wondering about the trapper who had come in with them. “Who was your traveling companion, Commander?” she asked casually “Fellow 1 fell in with this morning. Wolfgang Stebbins. Native wife. Her people live here in the village. I invited them both to the Christmas tree tonight but the beggar told me frankly he was coming to town to get drunk. Later he’s going down to Wrangell with his furs. You know him, of course. Revelry.” “Yes. I know him.” Denny turned her head, lest her eyes meet those of Bourne and betray her desperate resolve to get in touch with Stebbins; for she had made up her mind that when the trapper set out for Wrangell, she would be a passenger on his sled. Vaguely she heard the two men speculating about Shakespeare George, who had not yet arrived in town for his accustomed Christmas visit. Her problem now was to get out of the house at once and seek Stebbins in the native quarter while Bourne was still occupied with the Commander. Fortune favored her when the two fell into * spirited discussion of Canadian politics, and she slipped away upstairs to change her clothes. Shortly after, Denny, dressed in her white blanket suit and ermine cap, slipped quietly out the front door, (To be continued) Copyright by BtrrtU Willoughb?.
