SYRACVSE AND LAKE WAWASEE JOURNAL

ERSKINE DALE-PIONEER n> - ' By JOHN FOX, Jr.

“GENTLEMENI” BY NOPS I &-To the Kentucky wilderness outpost commanded by Jerome Sanders, tn the time immediately preceding the Revolution, comes a white boy fleeing from a tribe of Shawnee* by whom he had been captured and adopted as a «on of the chief Kahtoo. He Is given shelter and attracts the favorable attention of Dave Yandell, a leader among the eettlera The boy warns his new friends of the coming of a Shawnee war party. The fort is attacked, and only saved by the timely appearance of a party of Virginians. The leader Os these is fatally wounded, but In hta dying momenta recognise* the fugitive youth as his son. At Red Oaks, plantation on the James river, Virginia. Colonel Dale s home, the boy appears with a message for the colonel, who after reading It introduces the bearer to his daughter Barbara a* her cousin. Erskine Dale. Erskine meets two other cousins. Harry Dale and Hugh Willoughby. Dueling rapiers on a wall at Red Oaks, attract Erskine’s attention. He takes his first fencing lesson from Hugh. Yandell visits Red Oaka At the county fair at Williamsburg Erskine meets a youth, Dane Grey, and then* at once arises a bitter antagonism between them.

CHAPTER Vl—Continued. The bully rushed. Dave caught him around the neck with his left arm, his right swinging low, the bully was lifted from the ground, crushed against Dave’s breast, the wind went out of him with a grunt, and Dave with a smile began, swinging him to and fro as though he were putting a child to sleep. The spectators yelled their laughter and the bully roared like a bull. Then Dave reached around with his left hand, caught the bully's left wrist, pulled loose his hold, and with a leftward twist of his own body tossed his antagonist some several feet away. The bully turned once in the air and lighted resoundingly on his back. He got up dazed and sullen, but breaking into a good-natured laugh, shook his head and held forth the buckles to rave. “You won ’em.” Dave said. “They’re yours. I wasn’t wrestling for them. You challenged. We’ll shake hands." Then My Lord Dunmor* sent for Daw and asked him where he was from. “And do you know the Indian country on this side of the Cumberland?’’ asked his lordship. “Very well.” His lordship smiled thoughtfully. “I may have need of you." Dave bowed: “I am an American, my lord." His lordship flamed, but he conTolled himself. “You are at least an open enemy,” he said, and gave orders to move on. The horse race was now on, and Colonel Dale hnd given Hugh permission to ride Firefly, but when he saw the lad’s condition he peremptorily refused. “And nobody else can ride him,” he said, with much disappointment. “Let me try!" cried Erskine. “You!" Colonel Dale started to laugh, but be .caught Dave’s eye. "Surely,” said Dave. The colonel hesitated. “Very well—l will.” At once the three went to the horse, and the negro groom rolled his eyes when he learned what bls ;urpose was. “Dis boss’ll kill dat boy.” he muttered, but the horee had already submitted his haughty head to ths lad's hand and was standing quietly. Even, Colonel Dale allowed amazement and concern when -he boy Insisted that the saddle be taken off, as he wanted to ride bareback, and again Dave overcame his scruples with a word of full confidence. The boy had been riding pony races bareback, he explained. among the Indians, as long as he had been able to sit a horse. The astonishment of the crowd when they saw Colonel Dale’s favorite horse enter the course with a young Indian apparently on him bareback will have to be imagined, but when they recognized the rider as the lad who bad won the race, the betting through psychological perversity was stronger than ever on Firefly. Hugh even took an additional bet with his friend Grey, who was quite openly scornful. “You bet on the horse now," be Mid. "On both." said Hugh. It was a pretty and a close race between Firefly and a white-starred bay mare, and they came down the course neck and Deck like two whirlwinds. A war-whoop so Indian-Uke and curdling that It startled every old frontiersman who heard It came suddenly from one of the riders. Then Firefly stretched ahead inch by inch, and another triumphant savage yell heralded victory as the black horse swept over the line a length ahead. Dane Grey swore quite fearfully, for it was a bet that he could ill afford to lose. He was talking with Barbara when the boy came back to the Dales, and something he was saying made the girl color resentfully, and the lad heard her say sharply: “He is my cousin," and she turned •way from the young gallant and gave the youthful winner a glad smile. Again Hugh and Dane Grey were missing when the party started back to the town— they were gone to bet «B “Bacon’s Thunderbolts” In a cockfight That night they still were misstog when the party went to see the .Virginia Comedian* in a play by one Mr. Congreve—they were gaming that eight—and next morning when the Kentucky lad rose, he and Dave through his window saw toe two

In the middle of the afternoon my lord'* coach and six white horse* swung from his great yard and made for the capltol—my lord sitting erect and haughty, his lips set wlth the resolution to crush the spirit of the rebellion. It must have been a notable acene, for Nicholas, Bland. Lee. Harrison, Pendleton, Henry and Jefferson. and perhaps Washington, were there. And <ny lord was far from popular. He had hitherto girded himself with all the trappings of etiquette, had a court herald prescribe rules for the guidance of Virginians In approaching hie excellency, had tained little and, unlike his predecessors, made no effort to establish cordial relations with the people of the capital. The Burgesses were to give a great ball In Jils honor that very night, and now be was come to bB The Two Backwoodsmen Had Been Dazzled by the Brilliance of It All. dissolve them. And dissolve them he did. They boyved gravely and with no protest. Shaking with ahger my lord stalked to his coach and six while they repaired to the Apollo room to prohibit the use of tea and propose a general congress of the colonies. And that ball came to pass. Haughty hosts received their haughty guest with the finest and gravest courtesy, bent low over my lady’s hand, danced with her daughters, and wrung from my lord’s reluctant lips the one grudging word of comment: "Gentlemen!” And the ladies of bls family bobbed their heads sadly in confirmation, for the steel-like barrier between them wns so palpable that it could have been touched that night, it seemed, by the hand. The two backwoodsmen had been dazzled by the brilliance of it all, for the boy had stood With Barbara, who had been allowed to look on for a while. Again my lord had summoned Dave to him and asked many questions about the wilderness beyond the Cumberland, and he even had the boy to come up and shake bands, and asked him where he had learned to ride so welh Before Barbara was sent home Hugh and Dane Grey, dressed with great care, came in, with an exaggeration of dignity and politeness that fooled few others than themselves. Hugh, catching Barbara’s sad and reproachful glance, did not dare go near her, bm Dane made straight for her side when he entered the room—and bowed with great gallantry. To the boy he paid ao attention whatever, and the latter, fired with indignation and bate, turned hastily away. But in a corner unseen he could not withhold watching the two closely, and be felt vaguely that he was watching a frightened turd -and a snake. The little girl’s self-composure seemed quite to vanish, her face flushed, her eyes were

CALLS FROGS FROM HIDING PLACES

•■. - I Rainstorm Brings Them Out, but Idea That They Fail With It Is a It has never been known of frogs falling with the rain in a rainstorm. This is an old superstition which probably arose from the fact that frogs were seen moving about in large numbers after a storm. It is possible that a cyclone (that can lift houses and whirl them about like rtraws) may at some time at other have gathered up a quantity of frogs and landed th&n somewhere else, not much the worse for wear. On the whole, however, we should say that it Is impossible for the sky to rain frogs io »P lte expression “raining cats and dogs,” and “raining pitchforks.” Frogs are am-

Erskine rose. Gray confronted the lad dully tor a moment and then Straightened. "Here's anuxzer one wants to fight,” he said thickly, “My young friend, I will oblige you anywhere with anyihing. at any time—except tonight You must regard zhat tut great honor, for I am not accustomed to fight with savages.” • And he waved the boy away with such an Insolent gesture that the lad, knowing no other desire with an enemy than to kill him in any way possible, snatched his knife from his belt He heard a cry of surprise and horror from Hugh and a huge hand caught his upraised wrist. “Put It back I” said Dave sternly. The dazed boy obeyed’ and Dave led him upstairs. Dave talked to the lad about the enormity of his offense, but to Dave he was inclined to defend himself and his action. Next morning, however, when the party started back te Red Oaks. Erskine felt a difference in the atmosphere that made him uneasy. Barbara alone seemed unchanged, and he was quick to guess that she had not been told of the incident. Hugh was distinctly distant and surly for another reason as well. He had wanted to ask young Grey to become one of their party and his father had decisively forbidden him —for another reason, too, than his influence’over Hugh: Grey and his family were Tories and in high favor with Lord Dunmore. As yet Dave had made no explanation or excuse *or his young friend, but he soon made up his mind that it would be wise to offer the best extenuation as soon as possible; which was simply that the lad knew no better, had not yet had the chance to learn, and on the rage of impulse had acted Just as he would have done among the Indians, whose code alone he knew. The matter came to a head shortly after their arrival Lt Red Oaks when Colonel Dale, Harry, Hugh and Dave were on the front porch. The boy was standing behind the box-hedge “near the steps and Barbara had just appeared in the doorway. “Well, what was the trouble?" Colonel Dale had just asked. “He tried to stab Grey unarmed and without warning," said Hugh shortly. At the moment the boy caught sight of Barbara. Her eyes, filled with scorn, met his in one long, sad, withering look, and she turned noiselessly back Into the house. Noiselessly too he melted into the garden, slipped down to the river bank, and dropped to the ground. He knew at last what he had done. Nothing was said to him when he came back to the house and that night he scarcely opened bls lips. In silence he went to bed and next morning he was gone. The mystery .as explained when Barbara told how the boy too must have overheard Hugh. "He’s hurt," said Dave, “find he’s gone home.” “On foot?" asked Colonel Dale Incredulously. "He can trot all day and make almost as good time as a horse.” “Why, he’ll starve." “He could get there on roots and herbs and wild honey, but he’ll have fresh meat every day. Still, I’ll have to try to overtake him. I must go, anyhow." And he asked for his horse and went to get ready for the journey. Ten minutes later Hugh and Harry rushed joyously to his room. “We’re going with you!" they cried, and Dave was greatly pleased. An hour later all were ready, and at tha last moment. Firefly was led In, saddled and bridled, and with a leading Milter around his neck.
