FAITHFUL TO DEATH.
Phil’s companions continued to offor a
■nt resistance to Black Ned’s party,
lile Phil himself lay dying, with bis
rang mistress bending over him, vainly
•ing to atop the red tide that tlowed
irthwarcl from bis black breast.
I did all I could, Miss," gasped Phil,
the sound of the fighting canin nearer
.d the shrill yells of the Indiana more
altnnt.
I know yon did, Phil. Do not talk ;
weakous you.” She placed bor trem-
ling little band on the cold black fore-
ad, while Patsy clung to the once pow-
ul arm of her brother and begged him
live, in a voice so filled with the pain
her heart that its lower tones drowned
it all others.
Phil recovered for a moment, ns the
iug seemed to cease, and whispering
od bless young Miss,” the broad chest
Ittlod slowly down, the current of the
d life tide had ceased, and Phil lay
■ad, with his block face turned np to the
The cessation of the fighting was only
lomentiiry. The remaining black men,
laming that Phil was dead, became snd-
enly panic-stricken, and fled bofore the
nal onset made by the Indians.
Into the little stockade they poured,
nd torches wore quickly lit, and in the
allow light Black Nod saw the dead forms
f the half dozen men who had died in
liriam’s defence. Miriam herself stood
ale and ereot, and Palsy lay on the
(round with her arms around her dead
irother, while she supplicated Heaven to
[ive back to life their defender.
‘Don’t be skeored, Miss Troup ; I ain’t
|oin’ to hurt you,” said Ned, advancing,
lot in hand, and making a clumsy bow,
rith ill-affected gallantry.
Why come you hero, sir, with these
lavages, to bill my pooplo?” she demand-
she pointed to the painted warriors
ftroand her.
‘They won’t hnrt yon, Miss," ho stam
mered, as be took a stop back, for he saw
he glitter of a blade in the hand Miriam
tad half concealed in her shawl
‘Why come you hero, sir ?” again she
asked, moving towards where the n
thoroughly astounded Black Ned stood
“Your father sent me, Miss ; I came to
irotect you and take you home."
“I do not need your protection,
there be a particle of troth in wbat yon
IF fay, and you have a spark of love left for
jour mother, leave me at once. I can
find the place where my father's house
stood before it sank to ashes by your
torches. ”
“It wasn't na fired the house, Miss."
“No ! Then who was it pray ?"
“Louis Macon.”
To this Miriam did not deign reply, bnt
fastened hor flashing blue eyes with a gaze
that was worse than a blow on the villain
before her.
“Yes, Miss, it was him that did it. But
we’ve got him, an' Captain Wilson will
make him pay for it.”
‘Pay for it!" exclaimed Miriam, now
more alarmed at the thought of danger to
Louis than at her own critical position.
‘Yes, Miss, them's my words," said
Ned, noticing the changed manner of the
girl before him, and muttering to him
self, “I’ve her in a weak place, and most
follow up the blow.”
“What do your words mean ?’’ she ask
ed, after a minute's hesitation.
“They mean, Miss, that Wilson, who
holds Louis Macon a prisoner, has hanged
him, or will do it by daylight."
Miriam staggered baok, the arm hid
in the folds of her shawl dropped nerve
less by hor aide, and from her grasp the
tnife fell to the ground.
| 8he noticed it not, but Black Ned did.
end leaping forward, he coaid not refrain
a about of triumph as he said :
Thar, yeh can't hnrt nobody now ;
that's one good thing !”
Miriam soon recovered her presence of
mind, and realizing fully her position, and !
Phil lay, aud stooping, she freed the long
hunting knife from his belt, and raised it
till it seemed like a sword in the glare of
the torches.
“Do not be frightened,” sho continued,
as she saw Black Ned's surprise. “I do
not propose to hurt so frail and helpless a
creature as you aro now. I will go back
to the Ohatiahoooheo if you lead the way;
but this knifo I will keep for you—if
necessary, for myself.
Black Ned understood her fell mean
ing, as did the Indians, who could not
hide their surprise at this conduct in a
“squaw”—it was so different from what
they had been accustomed to.
“I agree, Miss; you’re perfectly right.
I want to be friends, an' Avonld die to
beep yon from harm."
“No doubt.”
“Yes, Miss; an' ns we’re all tired, I’ll
stay here and rest till morning."
“Then you must build your fires back
in the woods from here."
“I'll do that willin’, Miss, if you’ll let
me build one in here, and have a man to
watch you from harm. He’ll stand off a
good way."
“Very well; but firf»t bnry those dead
men, who were murdered by yon and
your savages," said Miriam, pointing to
the black men who had fallen.
“Yes, Mias, I’ll do that; bnt the ranr-
derin’ wasn’t all on one side. I've lost
nigh three to one ; but I’ll bury them nil
together."
No, sir; my people must sloop in n
separate grave, for some day, Rhonld I
live, I will carry back the bones of my
faithful sorvauts and bury them where I
n often place flowers on the grovos of
o men who died for me."
“I’ll do wbat you say, Miss," replied
Black Ned, who wan mentally congratu
lating himself on the success of a nego
tiation that at first did not promise well.
Patsy, in tho mean time, had risen to
her feet, and stood boside hor mistress,
half bewildored with grief aud the strange
events transpiring around hor.
Miriam led hor to a part of tho stock
ade that afforded some protection, while
tho position enabled them to watch every
thing transpiring uround them.
The fires that Phil had kindled about
the defence now blazed np brighter than
', and the warriors not engaged in
hollowing a grave in the stockade for the
black men gatherod their own dead to
gether, chanting as they did so their low,
unearthly death songs.
Before Phil was lowered into the grave
Miriam took bis cold hand in hors for an
eternal “good-bye," and Patsy again gave
way to tho feelings of her breaking heart.
The gloomy work was over, and Black
Neil aud his Indians gathered about the
circling fires, some to sleep and others to
guard.
Miriam knew that she and Patsy must
have rest, and deciding to get some re-
poao, one at a time, it was agreed that
whenever the Indians changed tho one on
watch should wake tho sleeper.
So passed the long, slow hoars of that
fearful night, and though Miriam prayed
for light, yet sho dreaded the evonts that
might oome with it.
death was coming, and panorama-like his
post life flitted before him, so fast it
might have been ombracod in the smallest
measure of perceptible time. Then there
came a feeling of oaso, an indifforence
and freedom from pain, and Louis Maoon
fainted—and fainting is bnt a temporary
death.
Captain Mason saw all this; bat bo-
lioving Louis wonld recover, he prevented
his men from firing, fearing ho might hit
his friend, and he was too far away toseo
the actual danger which Macon was in.
Suddenly, from the direction opposito
to that whore the astounded Indians
stood, a fierce, piercing yell rose abovo
the sound of the rifles, and ont in I ho full
light of tho fire, within view of both par
ties, a black man with gleaming knife in
hand dashed, aud, uumiudful of tho bul
lets that greeted him, lxe ran straight to
where Wilson stood abovo his master,
and with u blow that would have foiled a
giant Batty dashed Wilson to tho earth,
and picking np his master in his arms, ho
ran in tho direction of his supposed
friends.
Captain Mason and his tiion saw tho
gallant act of tho faithful servant, and
appreciating his danger, for tho Indians
wore tryir-g to intcroopt him, they obeyed
the order of their Captain, and charged
to the rescue.
Mason aud his men had tho shortest
distame to travel in meeting Batty, and
thoy wore up and around him in time to
meet the Indians with a murderous fire,
and this discharged, they picked up tho
half conscious Louis and ran back to tho
cover of tho darkness and the woods, ac
companied by the.'faithfnl Batty,
The Indians attempted to follow, but
tho stunned Wilson was not on hand to
arouse their ardor, and they soon with
drew beyond the dangerous light of the
wood Are aud the terrible tire of Muaon’H
rifles.
“There is no time to spare here, boys !
Tho Indians will soon attack ten to one!
Let us saddle and get back to a position
on tho river."
Mason’s mou obeyed him like regulars.
The horses were ready in a minute, and
tho leader taking Lonis before him on his
horse, while Batty trudged beside him on
foot, thoy beaded their animals for tho
high bluffs, thut oven at this distance wore
perceptible, above Oswichee Bend, in tho
dorkuoss that hnDg ovor the landscape.
CHAPTER XXVI.
PLANNING.
Black Ned, though incapable of that re
fined fueling of respect that arises from a
high appreciation of its objoct, enter
tained a wholesome drond of Miriam
Troop, of whoso nature and feelings bo
had not the slightest conception, und as
she was to him a mystory he dreaded her.
Before the snn rose tho Indian . broiled
their venison aud cooked their corn bread
on the glow iug coalo, and the repast pre
pared, one of them carried over to Miriam
aud her servant a supply more than ade
quate to satisfy their limited appetites.
All having oaten, Block Ned with timid
steps approached the place where Miriam
stood, and stopping some diatanoo from
her, hr stood lint in hand and said :
“Mins Troup, wo ere ready to start back
to the Ohattnhooohoe."
“And, as I promised, I am ready to ac
company yon," was her answer.
“You can’t walk, Miss."
“I can." *
“But wonld you not prefer to ride ?"
“Yes, if you loave the management of
tho horse to myself and give me one for
my servant, who is more fatigued than I.”

UNEXPECTED AID.
Lonis Macon, as has been stated, saw
Herdiok Wilson and his followers ad
vancing, and from the conduct of Captain
Mason and his men he had overy reason
to think them friends, bnt for safety, and
to take advantage of the fire, thoy fell
back, that the light might fall on the at-
tacking party.
Louis recognized Herdiok Wilson, and
forgetting his own nnnrmed condition, ho

came the target for a dozen rifles and
scores of arrows. He did not heed tho
olubbed rifle or glittering knife of Wil
son, but like an enraged lion he dashed
both aside and closed at once with the
livid-faoed wretch.
Wilson became thoroughly alsrmad. and
tried to avoid him, while ha ahoutad to
Oakola for assistance.
Oskola heard Wilson, and sent him aid.
but not a warrior roached him, for they
fell midway before the terrible fire of Ma
son and his men.
Louis Macon was younger than his an
tagonist by ten or fifteen years, nnd
though taller and lighter, every muscle of
his splendid form was at his command,
and all his strength was summoned to his
aid, and as Fitz Jtimes met Roderick Dhn
when their blades wore dropped, so Louis

“I’ll do thut, Miss. All I want is to bo

Patsy complied, she turned to tho Indian
