CHAPJER XIX
\
The Closing of tha Trap.
Payne was struggling with his per-
.plexities about tr month before the
date set for the trial when Jim Betts
and Kitty came to hit office. Ivltty
sobbed out her story, while Payne lia^
tehed t!i utter amazement
"Why did you do this, Mrs. Bos-
tock?" he asked, when he h>4d heard
her to the end.
"Because I love Will and wanted to
help him," she answered.
"You'are willing to tell this story In
the wItMess-bo* Just as' you've tuUI It
to me?"
"1 wilj!? cried Kitty. "If It will
save \Vill—if It's needed to save him."
• • * • • .
• * •
As the any of the trial drew nearer
Payne knew Will's case was desperate.
Public opinion waS Inflamed a-ainst
him, and Bowyer'a. skillful caini>aign
had borne rich fruits.
Without animus, but in the resolve
to clear bia own reputation for laxity,
Quinn li; d* worked up the case until1
each link appeared Complete. Ander-
sen, who followed the Indian witnesses,
♦^stifled reluctantly Jhat he had over-
heard Wilton request the pseudO, po-
licemen to delay their Journey to Clay-
ton, as he did not wish Joe Bostock'
death to be known, for business rea-
sons, u^til some time later. ♦-
There followed Papillon and Jean
Passepartout, who Stated that they
had been told by tfye outlaw, Huckett,
that Wilton bad murdered Joe Rostock.
Having already come to the same opin-
ion, and being afraid of having the
guilt laid to them, they had decided tp
run away. <
Suddenly there came a buzz of ex-
citement in the court room: All eyes
were turned tWurd the crown attor-
ney, at whose side stood Bowyer him-
self; and It waf evidently the Inten-
tion of the prosecution to call him to
the stand.
Payne's eyes, attracted upward sud-
denly, saw Kitty In her widow's black,
seated iP; the. front, roiy of, the gxjJl^ry,
her eyes fixed in terror upon the new-
comer. And, as if drawn by the force
of her will, Bowyer looked up, and
Payne saw the flicker of a smile cross
ius red, vulpine countenance.
Bowyer, called, deposed that he had
known Joe Bostock intimately for sev-
eral yearp. They had always been
friendly, though often business rivals.
"When did you first learn of hla
death?" asked the crown attorney.
"Not for several days after."
"But you met the accused at the
Hudson's, Bay company's store at Big
Muskeg a few days after the event?"
"Two days after."
"What did he say to you about the
tragedy?"
"He told me Joe Bostock was not
with him."
"And he said nothing about his
death?" - .4
"No. I knew nothing about It for
two or thref days after that."
"Was bis demeanor that of a guilty
man?"
Payne leaped to his feetr "I object
to that question!" he shouted. But
Bowver was already answering:
. iqrfkfd ttfcr a man mad with
fear."
As he.spbfce he glanced upward.
There cape a scream from the gallery,
and Kitty fell- badr, fMnting in her
chair,,, • i \ t I i / ,
The court adjo&rnea uhtll the mor-
row. Payne went to his client almost
Immediately.
"What do you make of it alU" asked
Wilton gravely.
"It looks bad," answered Payne.
Was a fool to hide Joe's death.
Iticiutre for Kitty when you go bat*
and try to let me know how she Is,
wop't you? And tell her not to worry.
Tell her I'm going to pull out triumph-
antly, for the sake of the line,"
Wilton.
fra.vne left him with the resolve to
put Kitty upon the stand. He did not
tell Wilton this. He would have
avoided this had it been possible. But
It was the only chance remaining. The
Jury might believe her.
Suddenly there leaped Into Payne's
mind the overwhelming conviction that
Bowyer was at the tyacln of the mur-
der. Nothing else could explain his
vindictlyeness. He learned that Kitty
was recovering, arfd, before returning
to ipform Wilton, he had the impulse*
to tc to Jim Betttf quarters. He want-
e?I to see'the only man who still be*
Ueved In Wilton's innocence.
At Betts' home he was told thnt the
old man had left'Clayton two weeks
before, and had not yet returned.
Payne made his way slowly back to
the Jail. He had to uphold his faith
alone—4iis faith In an acquittal. It
was the hardest Job he" had ever had
in his life. r!,' '
CHAPTER XX
\ >>•* A- >; f ' jt- 'Y V,, [ty ;
The Guilty Manl
The Inquest on the bodies of Hack-
ett and Lee Chambers had established
the fact," ascertained by a search-party
on the day after the Are, that thera
were no human remains under the
starred timbers at tH« patapv Jiotwlth-
aTanding tilts, when TBe oHeippts made
to trace McDonald and his daughter
failed, if was generally believed that
th^y had 4>ecn lured there by the out-
laws, and had either died in the flames
or had been murdered and their bodies
disposed of.
ii Jim Betts had nothing more substan-
tial than anyone else on which to base
bis search. He was resolved to free
Wilton, and, having failed with Kitty,
he determined to discover the other
woman who, he felt sure, had- been
mixed up in Wilton's life—if she
still lived. •
Jim Betts built up the theory that
Wilton had arrived at the camp too
late to save the girl from Bowyer, and
that, half-crazed, she bad fled wtth her
father into the wilderness. He went
to the fishing camp and spent a day
prowling among the ruins, but he
learned nothing there. Then be went
to the store. It was still empty, for
a new trading post was being estab-
lished Jiorthward, and the company lwid
not replaced the factor, perhaps would
not do so. 1 Betts broke In.
Everything was as It had been on
the night of the lire. But Betts quick-
ly, discovered that someone had been
there since. For in the dust that cov-
ered the flow of Molly's bedroom were
the faint imprint of feet. A woman's
foot! ' ,
That was all the clue Betts got, but
It satisfied him. He cast about him.
northward and eastward, going into
every Indian encampment and talking
with the Inhabitants. But It was a
week before he got his second clue.
• V • • * • •
' Molly and her father left Wilton be-
side the road and crept stealthily into
the undergrowth. When they were a
sufficient distance from the camp they
made a wide detour, crossed the road,
and took the trail back toward the
portage, encountering nobody on the
way.
Tlv^re the factor got $500, and
made up a pack of food sufficient
for two weeks' Journey. They put
on their snowshoes and started east-
ward. ... / .
Molly had noticed that the factor's
paralysis had completely left him. She
said nothing to him about it, however,
fearing to bring It to his attention.
They traveled for eight days. On the
eighth McDonald showed signs of
weakness; he had overtaxed, his
strength; f~~
They were following an Indian track
that led to a little Moravian mission,
twelve* miles farther on. When they
reached It at nightfall, McDonald was
in a raging fever and half-dellrlous.
The brother In charge ^welcomed
them; ho put„the factor to bed and
nursed him *s*ldnnu*)y through a
sharp attack of pleurisy. McDonald,
In his delirium rav4d. Incessantly. All
the ghoiBts of the past tortured him.
Night \ after night he raved, while
Molly tended him in his anguish But
at last the delirium left him, and con-
science, screaming into the sick man's
soul, could no more pass the seal upen
his lips.
He was In a fever to be gone. He
wanted his rifle; he cleaned and oiled
It. He asked for his snowshoes, and
began examining the strings. As MoR/
gave theia to him she suddenly per-
ceived that one of the strings was
broken. And there flashed Jnto her
mind the memory of .her discovery be-
sldte the portage on that day when she
saved Wilton.
She would not let the dark thought
In her heart come Into consciousness.
But she kn&eled1 at the factor's side,
her arms around him. "What is trou-
bling you?" she pleaded. "Tell me."
McDonald was shaking like an
aspen. "It's nuething, lass!" he bab-
bled. "If I've repaid, It's for wrong
v that was done me and mine."
"What have you done? Whom have
you repaid? You must tell me."
He clutched at her. "I warned him
what would be If he came between me
and mine. And when he sent Will
Catruthers to steal 'you from me—for
he was at the back of that—I shot
him."
"Whom?"
Molly's gray eyes searched into his
soul*
"Joe Bostock 1"
After a long time Molly took the fac-
tor's hands In hers. "We'll go on," she
said in a hard voice. "Thank God,
no Innocent man has been suspected,
rll stay with you. PI1 never speak of
this again. But If eter the guilt Is un-
justly placed on anyone, you will go
back to Clayton and confess the truth,
or PR denounce yoti."
"Aye, I'll go back, Molly," V.* cried.
"No man shall hahg for me. I swear
It—If ye'll stay by me till then, Molly."
She left him, and, with a singular
ctarlty of mind, as if there were noth-
ing more to fear or hope, and no^rboAi
for further feeling, she went to the
door 1ho looked out across the snow-
bound wilderness.
She saw a figure tramping through
the snow toward the mission. And
thus Jim Bet^.gfipi«4 her.
