Harge sald gravely, “I don't think we'd better, Mr, Lanark.” “T'll be glad to. come, Miss Belene,” Aaron said stoutly, Captain Pipman had not used all his time at Bois des Morts in being melodious.

take care of himself. Aaron took him over to the Ipdian village, and they were uneasy. Black Wolf's wife was gone, with their tipi, their child, and nothing could be learned of their hiding-place. A Captain Pipman sald placidly, "80?
