"I’ve been ( trying to persuade him it is not > al. .«>!utcly nee .wary to tear you to , bits as soon ;u> he recovers " nen the little lines of amus* nn nt v anishid, and h> asked, ' Why did you come here?” "To see you." "What do you want with nv? "I want to know whv y ir men ar< getting ready to raid my camp and plantations." The gray eye;, showed sudden in- ; ter.it. "Did Madison till you that?” "Yejl." "I thought. o ’■ Norman straight-1 oned a fold in Clift a bandage . "That's better. isn’t it? Madison,” he added as an all'rthc'.ighß "is a liar. It I want' d to raid you. what tio you think kept me from doing it before?” "One hundred fighting men.” The doctor gave n little laugh ' ‘ Not at all. Your hundred tight.rg I nu n can’t work and fight too. My riders could have raid' d you at any time of the day or night. No. it wasn't fi ar that kept wt back. Neither v.q# it any reluctance on Vicente's part — nothing would I have pleased him more.” "Then why didn’t you?" "Why should I help Madison Florian? What he wanted, and what he expected was for us io raid you. The only reason tfr ever let you start your work here was Is cause he counted on our fighting I you. That would have given him ' an ally against us and might have beaten us. It was better to bear with you for a time than play into Madison's Jian<Ls.” Cliff hail not taken his eyes from Norman's face. There was neither pose nor heroics about this grizzled, low-voiced doctor—instead there was a quality of flint that Cliff could not be quite certain how to deal with. j "As it is,” the doctor went on, | “you yourself have taken the de- ■ cision out of my hands." ! "How?" "By coming here. You certainly must realize 1 can't let you go again now that you know the secret of this island?" "What will you do with me?" "Keep you here. You will disappear just as some of Madison's vaqueroe have disappeared. Without you, I doubt that your work will be carried on. Your men will leave " Cliff smiled. "As simple as that." "Perhaps not quite that simple. | There will he investigations and i searching parties. Your governl ment will write a few notes, and the soldiers will show great activity—temporarily—but nothing much will happen, and meanwhile

Normar’# eyes I struck fire, and for a moment he struggled to keep hi# temper, then ■ more calmly he asked. "Why should I justify myself to you?" The two men held each other's hostile gaze, and at last Cliff said, "I think you’re right.

"And now.” Cliff sat up—"l'll I I tell you something you don't know, t i You're not going to keep me i.'-rc. f I left word at camp that if I'm not ha< k tonight, my min are to , come for me.

The time may be soon enough when she will have to know about m r but not yet. And now, let me show you something." He led Cliff to an inner room where, on a cot, Vicente lay. The big breeds face was puffed and .swollen, end at sight of Cliff he tried to rise, but Norman’s hand gently forced him back. "Rest, my hon ” he «aid. "The fight is over.” ■ Vicente's lips moved painfully. We w ill fight again." Cliff shook his head. "Not if 1 an help it. One fight like that 'will last me a lifetime.” F'dlowing Norman out to where liis horse we.i tethered, Cliff silcntily mounted, but as he lifted the reins, he looked down at the doc- ' tor and said. "I came here hoping i for peace. You and I might havo liclped each other, for 1 need men —a lot of men to gather rubber. ' You could have brought work and |pe os to every farmer in the val.lcy. but instead of that you would > rather turn your Blacklanders I againrt me and make it tough for isrth of us. Well, that's the way ' you want it, and there's nothing I can do to change it, but if I’m forced to take sides with Madison nnd his vaqueros, it won’t be my fault it will be yoti’-* ” Turning, Cliff rode down the bank and out .nto the swamp. Back on the flrm earth of th# mainland, he stopp< d and for a time sat looking over the stagnant water, where always a thin, ghostly mist seemed to hover. What had his visit to Norinnn accomplished? Very little so tar as > any actual understanding was con- • cerncd. yet he hail a fi-ellng, too i intangible for words, that Norman I did not intend to make an immedi- , ate raid. Even if he had, he could scarcely attack now. without ViI rente, and the big Blacklandcr would not be able tu ride for days. And as he sat there by the , swamp's edge. Cliff realized that , without any conscious deliberation , on his pari, he had come to a dcr dskm of his own—he would never join Madison. However great the ’ need might be, he couldn’t stomach the idea of having Madison ami his , swaggering vaqucrori as allies. Or f was that the honest reason? s Wasn’t it really that be couldn't face the thought of attacking , Janet's father? , | With a little sigh. Cliff nicked !up the reins. "I'll probably etui by having Madison and Norman lioth against me," he murmured. And F as he rode, bis thoughts turned to , the riddle of tlie grizzle-haired doctor. Wl.y had he iklibcrately let the world think he was dead? j Why tiad he left New Dixie, where , he was loved and respected, to bccome the outlaw leader of an obc scum cause? Most unanswerable , of all. why. for two yvars. had he 1 *
