THE ROBBER OF THE WABASH.
A THRILLING ADVENTURE.
ICONC .13DED.]
Thus he opened his affairs to me, and I was
fool enough to be equal! y frank, I- admitted
that I had some money, and told him'my bus
iness, and by a most unpresuming course of
rethark, he drew from me the fact that I had
money enough to purchase forty full lots.
Finally the conversation lagged, and I be,
gan to give my companion a closer scrutiny.
I sat in. the stern of the canoe, and he was
about midships, and facing me. • His hair was
of a light, flaxen hue, and hung in long curls
about his neck ; his eatures were regular and
handsome ; and his complexion very light.—
But the color of his face was not wha - one
could call fair. It was a cold, bloodless color,
like pale marble. And for-the first time, too,
I now looked particularly at his eyes. They
were grey in color, and had the brilliancy of
glaring ice. Their light was intense, but cold
and glittering like a snake's. When I Ithought
of his age I set him down for not much over
thirty.
Suddenly a sharp, cold shudder ran throng:li
my frame and my heart leaped with a wild
thrill. his sure as fate—li , knew it—there
could bo no doubt—l had taken into my canoe,
and into my confidence, Gustus Karl, the Was
bash Robber. For a few moments I feared
my emotions would betray me. I looked
carefully over his person again, and I knew I
was not mistaken. I could look back now and
see how cunningly he had led me on to a con
fession of my•. circumstances—how he had
made me tell my affairs, and reveal the state of
my finances. What a fool I Ind been ! But
it was too late to think of the past. I had
enough to do to look out for what, was evident
ly- to come.
I at length managed to overcome all my out
ward emotions, and then I began to watch
my companion more sharply and closely.—
My pistols Were both handy. and I knew hey
were in order, for I had examined both in the
foornoon, when I thought of firing at some
game.
They were in the breast pockets of my.coat,
which pockets had been made on purpose for
them, and I could reach them at any instant.
Another hour gassed away, and by that time I
had become assured that the robber would
make no =cull', upon me until 'after night
fall. He sa:d that it would be convenient that
we were together,. for we could run all night,
as one could steer the canoe while the other
slept.
"Ay," I added, with a smile ; ," that is
good' for me, for every hour is valuable. I
would not miss meeting my friend for the
world."
"Oh, you'll meal him never fear," said my,
companion.
Ah ! he spoke that with a meaning. I un-,
derstood it well. I knew what that sly tone,
and that strange gleaming of the eye meant.
He meant that he would put me on the - road to
meet poor Kemp in the other world ! 1 won
der only now that I had not detected the rob
ber when I first saw him, for the expression 6f
his face was so heartless, so icy—and then his
eyes had such a wicked look,--that the most
unpracticed physiognomist could not' have
failed to detect the villain at once.
During the rest of the afternoon we con
versed, some, but not so freely as before. I
could see that the villain's oyes were• not so
frankly . bent upon mine as he spoke. and then
he seemed inclined to avoid my dircctglances.
These movements on his part were not studied,
or even intentional ; but they were instinctive,
as though his very nature led him - thus. At
length night came on. We ate our supper,
and then smokedt our pipes, and finally my
companion proposed that I should sleep be
fore he did. At first I thought of objecting,
but a few minutes reflection told me that I had
better. as though he were an honest man ; so I
agreed to his proposition. • lie took my seat
at the stern, and I moved further forward and
having removed the thwart upon which my
companion lidd been sitting, I spread my cloak
in the bottchn of the canoe, and then having
placed my valise for a pillow, I lay down.—
As soon as possible I drew out one of my
pistols, and under the cover of a cough, I
cocked it. Then I moved my body so that
my right arm would be at liberty, and grasp
ing my weapon firmly, with my finger on
the guard, I drew up my mantle, slouch
ed my hat, and then settled down for my
watch.
Fortunately for me the moon was up, and
though the forest threw a shadow upon me,
yet the beams fell upon Karl, and I could see
his every movement. We were well into
the Wabash, having entered it about three
o'clock. •
" You will call me at midnight," I said
drowsily.
"Yes," he returned.
"Good night."
"Good - night—and pleasant dreams. = I'll
have you further on your way than you think
ere you wake up again."
"Perhaps so," thought I to myself, as 1
lowered my head, and pretended to lower my
self to slelp.
For half an hour my companion steered the
canoe very well, and seemed to take but little
notice of me , but at the end of that time I
couid see that he. became more uneasy. I
commenced to snore with a long, regularly.,
drawn breath, and on the instant the villain
started as starts the banter when he hears tho
tread of game in the woods.
But hark ! Aha—there was before one
fingering fear in my mind that I might shoot
the wrong uan ; but it was gone now. As
the fellow stopped the grunion of the .paddle,
I distinctly heard him mutter :
"0-ho, my dear sheep—you little dreamed
that Gus Karl was your companion. But he'll
do you a good turn. if your friend is dead,
you shall follow him, and take your traps to
pay your passage to heaven !"
I think these were the very words.
—At any rate, they were their drift. As be
thus spoke he noiselessly drew in the paddle.
and rose to his feet. I saw him teach up over
his left shoulder, and when he brought back
his hand he had a huge bowie knife in it. I
could see the blade gleam in the pale moon
light, and I saw Karl rua his thumb along the
edge, and then feel the point ! My heart beat
fearfully, and my breathing was hard. It
was with the utmost exertions that I could
continue my snoring, but I managed to do it
without interruption. slowly and noiselessly .
the foul wretchproceeded to approach me.
Oh I bis step would not have awakened a
hound—and his long, gleaming knife was
half raised. I could hear the grating of, his
teeth as he nerved himself for the stroke.
jThe villain was by my side, and measured
the distance from his hand to my heart with
his eye. In his left hand he held a thick
handkerchief all wadded up. That was to
stop my mouth with. Every nerve in my
body was now struck, and my heart still as
death. Of course my snoring ceased ; and at
that instant the huge knife was raised above
my bosom l Quick as thought I brought my
pistol up—the muzzle was within a foot of
the robber's heart-he uttered a quick cry—l
saw the bright blade quiver in the moonlight,
but it came not upon me. I pulled the tri.e
ger, and the last fear was past. 1 had thought
that the weapon might miss fire. but it did
not. There was a sharp report, and as I
sprang np and backed, I heard a fierce yell,
and at the same time the robber fell forward,
his bead striking my knee as it came down.
Weak and faint I sank back, but a sudden
tip of the canoe brought me to my senses, and
I went aft sad took the paddle. As soon as
the boat's head was once more right I turned
my eyes upon the form in the bottom of the
canoe, and then I saw it quiver—only a
aright spasmodic movement—and then all was
still.
gll tlasitaight i sat there at my watch anti
