~ - —Ts — LO I AT iy te + ——— ——EEE the cavern. When we wished to go out we pushed the trap woward, thereby turning the water from about the opening, and enabling us to make an exit, though we were always com- pelled to wrap a blanket or buffalo-skin ‘around us to escape a thorough wetting, as much water found its way into the cavern when the door was up; the water, however, did not render the eave disagreeable, for it found its way out im- mediately, through a narrow passage opening into the creek at the foot of yon rapids. My object, Willis, in staying in the place was to be near you, and search for our child, whom I lost track of after leaving the tribe, and of whom I never heard until the day I worked the secret from Henri Roche, by pretending I was dying,” and Cecil Gray laughed at the remembrance of that meeting with the outlaw. At this juncture a low exclamation burst from Gray’s lips, as he fixed his eyes upon the bed of the creek before him. He saw something thrust upward in the water, revealing a small cavity through which a dark, hairy form suddenly appeared. “Tis brother!” cried Cecil. ‘Tom! Tom!” The form leaped from the opening, threw aside its hairy robe, and the next instant Willis Gray grasped his brother-in-law, a tall, sad- looking man, by the hand. When Cecil and her husband returned to camp on the Boyer, her brother went with them, with the determination of leaving the country forever. Hawkeye Harry now received an explanation of the mystery of the smoke ascending from the basswood tree, and the hairy form he saw rise from the bed of the creek and slay the Indian, and Tom was indeed the *“ Unknown.” ‘The oung ranger was not a little surprised when he betvas, J also, that the occupants of the cave knew of his presence by the creek that night. But with this mystery we are done. The party resumed their journey to the fort, and reached the point in due season and in safety. And now came the ‘‘ tug of war’”—the partin of friends and lovers. But, with the renewal o pledges and love vows, in tears and entreaties, e separation took place. Calvin Gardette and his daughter, Willis and Cecil Gray and their daughter, all departed for the East, as also did Richard Parker. Hawkeye Harry remained at the fort, but it was only for a short time. A year later found him in one of the leading Eastern schools, and still a few years later he went to the home of Nora Gardette, and claimed a fulfillment of their vows made years agone upon the banks of Boyer river. With his young wife Harry Houston went West, where he laid the foundation of wealth, rominence, and the best of all, a joyous and Ea ypy life. Richard Parker married Gertie Gray, and theirs was a life as bright and full of sunshine, as the life of Gertie’s parents had been dark and clouded. / -BEADLE'’S Half-Dime Library. 1 Deapwoop Dick, THE PRINCE oF THE ROAD.
