Thnt means a store, i blaoksmlth shop, n church, a shoo- m&kcr and tbroo or four bouses—perhaps 80 reddcnU In alL It wts founded 60 years «go. For half a century pooplo hnvo been tiding In from n dletanco of eight or tell nvlee to innke their purehnsos or cull for util or visit the blacksmith. On rainy days t crowd of farmers sit about tho storo lo gossip, and again when tho woath- er Is pleasant the men work nt home, and tho women rldo In and make a fow pnr- chnsos and visit for awbllo at the snuo plnoo. Yestordny was a rainy day. Old men, men of middle ago, boys of 16 and 18 came to town. Thoro were mules to be reshod, boots to be mended, ton and to- boooo to bo purchased. Nowand thon one confidently Inquired for mall nt tho post- ofilco and woe hnndod out a letter or the weokly eoonty paper. Thoro were peace and good naturo for half a day. Every body (book hands and made friendly In- qulrlot ond felt at ponoo. At soon there was less Jollity, less Jok ing. The bottle of moonshlno whisky had boon handed about until two or tbreo men woro drunk, two or threo moro silly and reckless, tho remainder rhurllsh and 111 tompecod. Men win, had shaken k liko brothers at S o’clock In tho forenoon woro looking askanoo at oacb othor at UWB&;. Not only that, but thov were silent and thinking—thinking ovor tho IncldonU and evenuof the past half dozen years and groping for gomotblng to raise a quarrel about. By and by ono of tho long haired, angular mountaineers—ono of a pair who had snt close beside caoh othor for an hour without speaking—finds tho exouso sought for and turns and makes a bitter remark. It Is bitterly re sented. Koxt Instant both am on their foot and havo knives In their hands. Oo- foro they can uso tliom, howover, other mon spring forward and separate thorn, and ono is led away. An old wound hns boon opened, honor Impugned. Some said It were better to let them fight It ont thon and there; others said a reconciliation might bo effected. Whilo they wore argu ing ono of the principals walked out to whore his molo stood dejootodly In tho rein and mounted and rodo awny. Tho crowd looked after him, but no mnn called him a coward. What thoy whlsporod to each Other was: "Tom's gwlno homo to git his gun and ambush Dan! Dan botternotgo home to day!" They not only whispered It to each oth er, hut to Dan, who still hold bis wloked looking knlfo In hand and used It to out a sliver frum tho barrel on which he oat as ho replies): Yes: Tom will ambush moon tho road. Wo'd hov hotter fit it out right yere, From thnt moment he was n doomed man.' Ho folly realized it, and ho did not bluff or blustor or seek to oonccnl his truo focllngs. Ills way was a ionoiy ono. ono else rodo that way Toromoinin town overnight would subject him to genoral contempt. To request any ono to rldo homo with him would mnkohlm n coward In tho oyee of all. When tho rest wont, ho must go. Tom would bo waiting for him in some road-tldo thicket or behind some great rook, but ho must go forward Just the same. Ho heard them talking about a reconciliation, and tholr words brought a smile of contempt. True, a quarrel had somctlmoa been patched np, but If both principals lived on It wot sure to break oat again. After tho lie bad boon passed and knlvca drawn It was foollsb to talk of peace. Ho must not oven sanction such talk, or tho boys would whisper to each other that ho was afraid Two o'clock, 8 o'clock, 4. It waa tho aame leadon sky, tho same monotonous patter of raindrops. After a o’clock tho men hod avoided Dan. Thoy know what bo know—that ho was a doomed man. When tho mark of death Is placed on a living man, ho must Uvo oat his hours alone. All living mon pass him by. 4 o’clock half n dozen men mounted and rodo away. As thoy did to thoy looked uver their shoulders to sco It Dan was coming. IIo saw thorn do it and waltod ten minutes. Then he mounted and rodo after them. Two miles away tho trail ho roust take branched off the main road. At that spot he halted for a moment. He had paid the storekeeper n email balanco ho owed him Ho bad gono to tho blacksmith and squared accounts. Ha bad scrawlisla brief missive to his wife, telling bor whit to do after his death. Was there anything further! Was bo quite ready7 He had not offered his hand nor said goodby to any of tho men, bat that was not expected of him. Yes; ho was ready, and im pleked np the lines and urged his mnlo forward. It was three miles from tho main road to bis home. The way offered a hundred spots for ambush. In somo ono of tho covert, the nisoaaln would bo lying with cooked rill, to send a bullot through his heart. It mattered not which ods. Death would eom. jaal tho same. Ho might dismount and leave the trail, bat that would bo oowardld He might tarn back and reach borne by a long circuit, but that would be oowaidlce again. Nol Ho would go to his death llko a man—ns his father and grandfather had dona before him, as hts wife and children up there In tho humble bln would wish for him to do. Life waa sweet, but— A tonguo of flame, a cloud of bine ■moke, the crack of a rifle at tho corner of the great block rook, and the frightened male galloped away leaving a corpse be hind on the path—a man abot through the heart. No ono came ont to look at the body. Somo one moved away through tho sodden forest, but there waa no ono to run after him, no one to catch fleeting glimpses. It we, murder from ambusb, tbeyeald, and they said nothing more; no arrest, no trial, no retribution; Just a oorpee In tho path and a widow and three fatherless children In tho oahln two miles away.
