i tallow dip and proceeding to exam

sound asleep in their beds, he beld tbe

giving a grunt of satisfaction at the

He aecompan ed bis words with a

.in y know that she had told and
would toi-.ahawk her. When her mis

ui ro t d experienced a treat scare;
-h Mis. Aboru tried to lu
e her to te! what had frightened
Li r. Ler t Corfs resulted in failure. As
i as Sirs A born had gone to her
rjorn Martha went out and reported
Lilians presence in the house
But sli was either not believed or
he told, considering that the
vt n J tiej who had como to
vi: , were friendly, did not think
o t tier worthy of their attention,
?daily as the Aborn house was
closed for the night.

,* nuiet. the older children asleep
in their beds aud her mistress slum
1.. with the smaller ones, she made
up her mind that the savage was less
murderous than she had supposed him
to L ? and set about getting breakfast
Presently she heard a cry. Terri
fied lest the Indian, after all. was about
to tomahawk her mistress, she ran
out of the kitchen into a passage
v There she saw Mrs, Aboru In
tli^ arms of the Indian, whose face
b I lost its coppery hue during the
night Mrs. Aboru's head was hang
lug limp on the Indian's arm. It being
tvldeot that she had fainted. Martha,
suj jioting it to have been from fright,
sought support against the wall to
avv .4 collapsing herself.
The Indian was uone other than
J. lin Aborn. And this was his story:
lie nd his companion huntsman bad
b .i et upon by Indians. Swift had
be? i killed and Aborn made a prison
er lie was taken far to the south aud
.. . i'ted into the tribe. No opportuul
t; -id occurred for some time to re
turn north, aud even then he had been
obliged to delay going to Uls home.
1 .? with whom he had entered the
settlei lent were Ignorant that he was
a white man. and he did not wish
