“T will go. If you speak true, good-by, for- ever! If you are deceiving me— will see you later !” Laughing Leo strode back to his horse, leaped into the saddle and galloped swiftly away. From that day he passed out of their lives for- ever | It was nearly a week before Morris Kirken- dall was able to travel, even in the spring- wagon; but then, as the long spell of ood weather showed signs of coming to an end, he dared linger no longer with the hide-hunters. The hide-hunters bore, him company for two days; then the parting came. Gravely, sober- | ly, Jesse Purchass shook his hand, and when the grim old trader stared at him in open-eyed as- | tonishment, he shook his head rg | faintly: ‘‘T am going back with the boys, . Kirken- ” | ‘*Goin’ back—but what'll Beauty-bird say?” “That whatever Jesse does, is best,” that lit- tle lady loyally declared, through her half-tears, half-smiles. ‘Yes; she thinks with me in this, dear sir,” soberly added Purchass. ‘‘She thinks it best for me to carry out my original plans, and come for her when I can show you the record you demanded. Then, when I have proven myself a man whom even you will not be ashamed to take by the hand, Morris Kirkendall, I will ask you to give me your choicest treasure—Luada!” ‘‘ Waal, now I will be durned!” ‘’ Wasn't it? Waal, I should remark! The — *way-uppest time I ever did see—an’ I ain’t no chicken, nuther! Ef she dedn’t look fit fer eat- in’, I don’t want a cent! An’ ef the boy didn’t look like he wanted no better grub then that same, you kin call me a liar! An’ the boss! To see that pesky ole one-legged critter hoppin’ *round the room, swingin’ every gal an’ woman he could ketch holt of! An’ huggin’ an’ bussin’ of °em behind the doors, in the corners, out in the middle o’ the room—it was all one to him, the onchristian sinner! An’ Ole Misery! Now you be talkin’, critter! Why don’t you think— thar he was, in one corner o’ the eatin’-room, his lap piled up to his chin with grub an’ drink an’ all sech; an’ *twixt each swaller an’ each mouthful, the durned critter’d whine out somethin’ bout ef he was on’y back in good ole Mizzoury ! a “ih _ An’ thar was Kanuck, dressed out in tip-to style, buckskins an’ all, slingin’ out his cuss¢ Frenchy talk an’ cavortin’ ’mongst the gay heif- ers like a king bull on the range! ‘‘ An’ Jobnny Bull got so full up to the chin that he wanted to ro the boss_hisself,- an only let up when the ole man punched him on- der the table with that wooden peg 0’ his’n! ‘An’ me? Waal, I was thar, or tharabouts stranger! An’ mebbe ye won't b’lieve it, but the little lady-bird stuck to this ole critter_on- tel he said he’d stan’ up to them when the Gos- ]-sharp was doin’ the weddin’ business, an’ see that the boy didn’t git skeered an’ run from the music. An’ I did, too! An’ they’s them | that was thar as’ll tell ye Spread Eagle Sam got away with the fu’st kiss, too! She done it mostly, jes’ fer a joke, thar, now I tell ye!” THE END. I reckon; but Sam got BEADLE’S Half-Dime Library. 1 Deapwoop Dick. By Edward L, Wheeler 2 YELLOWSTONE Jack. By Joseph E.
