The Print of

*TMIE body lay close to the rows of
A eori>. and the sherlfT was bending
over It. Then he straightened up
slowly and turned to Will Grainger,
the older of the murdered man’s two
nephews.
“You and Ruth and Tom Hathaway
druv to church together In the car ”
“Yes.”
“You left your brother, Dan’l, and
your uncle at home here—arguin’.”
“They stayed home. Yes.”
“Arguin’!" the sheriff Insisted. “Thai
can't be covered up. Will. Plenty peo
pie heard ’em, hot at It, as they went
by to church. The winders wa3 open.”
“Yes, they was arguin’."
“And you three come home from
church separate.”
“Yes. Separate."
For the first time, the sheriff looked
uiiccuy »[ unmet. "And how aboul
you, Dan?"
“We—got through arguin’; and I
went for a walk In the woods.”
The sheriff studied the lowered stub
born face of the .wenty-year-old boy.
Then he made a little gesture of dis
tressed helplessness and began to lead
the way toward the open shed door.
Once Inside, the sheriff crossed the
uneven plank floor to a broad work
bench which ran along one side. Over
part of the rough surface of the bench
smooth gray cardboard had been
tacked. Cartridge boxes, powder cans,
1 small tools, and a set of scales were
neatly arranged on this clean surface.
On two wooden pegs ubove the bench
rested a Winchester repeating rifle.
From his pocket the sheriff drew
an empty brass shell. Taking a load
eu cartridge from the nearest box, he
compared the two. He did not make
the obvious statement that the two
matched; or trouble to remind the
others that rille, cartridges, and the
reloading paraphernalia belonged to
Daniel.
Iustead he turned to Tom Hath
away, the tall spare elderly hired man.
“I reckon you knew the old miser,
Tom, Jest about as well as anybody
livin’.”
*'I reckon,” the other agreed.
"You was workin’ for him even be
fore 'the boys’ mother died, and they
come to live with him.”
"To live—on his charity,” the other
man amended. "As he always took
pains to remind ’em.”
“I guess there ain’t hardly been one
cussed meanness he’s put on ’em you
ain't known of, and tried to help ’em
bear.”
“I tried to help the boys Just so fur
as I could, sheriff,” was the calm re
ply.
i ineu 10 snow era me way or pa
tience,'* Tom went on. “Especial
ly Dan and Ruth: after they’d fell In
love, and was crazy to marry.”
“And, this morning," the sheriff sud
denly broke In. “their uncle told the
boys—because of hard times—he’d
have to cut down their trillin' pay
When they knew he had plenty, and
more, hoarded In the bank. Money
they wanted, now. Needed, now. Money
Dan had to have, now. Ain’t that what
his uncle and him was arguin’ over?’’
“That can’t be denied,” Tom said at
last, and his expression became deep
ly thoughtful. “My mind was running
along them same lines, too, sheriff, as
1 sat In church. It seemed to me Pan
and Ruth ought to have that money.
some way. While they could still be
young and happy with It.
“SIttIn' there, 1 took a good look
back over my own life—which all lies
behind me now, any way you figure
It. and It come to me how different
things would of been, if I’d had any
kind of a start. It all come to me plain.
I would of married. Uuth might of
been the daughter I never had. Pm
mighty fond of them two, sheriff. So,
all In all, I couldn’t hardly blame Dan
for the stand he took.”
And, once more, the sheriff broke
In abruptly. “That's Just the point,
Tom. Just what I’ve been leadin' to.
We all know you'd like to ease things
for Dan. But here’s where you
weren’t able to help any—and can’t.
Certain things the law says neither
mnn nor boy can do. About your only
way to help Dan now, is counsel him
to come along with me, peaceable.”
But Tom Hathaway merely looked
at the sheriff in feigned surprise.
I District Must Supply
Cwn School Fencing
Efforts of the Hyder Cham
ber of Commerce and Repre
sentative J. K. Green to secure
a new fence for the rear end of
the public school grounds have
been refused by the Commiss
ioner .of Education, who states
in a letter to the Chamber that
rural school districts are or
ganized under a law which pro
vides that the Territory shall
provide only the building and
equipment. For this reason, he
says, the Board cannot legally
pend money on any part of a
M.UUU1 grounu or tor lences,
which must, therefore, be pro
vided by the district.

all come home from church, separate.
'■ 'e got here, separate. Dan’s gun was
here, for any of us to use. We all hated
the old man, equal. How’s the law go

‘Must this way,” the sheriff declared,
with forced patience. “The gun’s been

Hut It’s a long reach, over the bench,

The tense silence that followed this

Then he urged sharply: “Quick, Willi
, Itip that cardboard off. He can’t stop
us. Chuck It in the stove. Then they
never can tell which of us It was.”
It was Tom Hathaway, however, who
moved, stepping forward to stand be
side the sheriff.
“No, Dan," he said. “The sheriff’s
right enough. Certain things neither
boy nor man cnn do. Not without pay
