Atttefc*
"Cecil Atterson, I've got you!"
»eu«*e of track? tunkes ir clear that At-j
terson cannot have handed the loot I
over to a confederate in the canoe '
Isn't that right''"
"Looks that way." admitted .loe.
"Then the canoe can be only a coin-!
cidence."
November shook his head. "I >
wouldn't ko (|uite so far as to say!
that. Mr. Quariteh."
Once again he rapidly went over the!
ground near the river, then returned i
to the spot where Atterson had slept. \
following a slightly different track loi
that by which we had come. Then!
taking the hatchet from his belt, he'
split a dead log or two for a fire and I
hunc up the kettle once more. 11
guessed from this that he had seen at
least some daylight in a matter that j
was still obscure and inexplicable 10
me.
"I wonder if Atterson has confessed
to Hobson yet," 1 sitid. meaning to
draw Joe.
"He may confess about the robbery,
but he can't tell any one where the
bank property is, because he's been
robbed in his turn."
"Robbed!" I exclaimed.
Joe nodded.
"And the robber?"
"'Bout five foot six. light weight,
very handsome, lias black hair. is. I
think, tin.ler twenty-five years old and
lives in Lendeville or near it."
"Joe, you've nothing to go on." I I
cried. "Are you sure of this? How
can you know?"
"I'll tell you when I've got those t
bank bills back."
CHAPTER XI.
Phedre Pointarre.
IT was still early afternoon when
we arrived in Leudeville. a few
scattered farms and a single gen
eral store. Outside one of the
farmhouses .loe paused.
"I know the cbap that lives In here."
he said. "He's a pretty mean kind of
a man. Mr. Quariteh. I may find a
way to make him talk, though if he
thought I wunted information he'd not
part with it." »
"Say. McAndrew," began Joe. "what's
your price for hiring two strong horses
and a good buebboard to take us and
our outfit on from here to the Burnt
Lands by Sandy pond?"
"Twenty dollars."
"Huh!" said Joe. "we don't want to
buy the old horses!"
The Scotchman's shaven lips (he
wore h chin beard and whiskers! opeu- !
ed. "It would na' pay to do it for
less."
"Then there's others as will."
"And what might their names be?"
inquired McAndrew ironically. *
"Them as look up Bank Clerk At- ]
terson when he was here six weeks
back."
"Weel, you're wrang!" cried McAn- j
drew, "far Bank Clerk Atterson juist :
walked in with young Simon Pointarre !
and lived with the family at their
new mill. So the price is twenty or I'll
nae hearness a horse for ye."
"Theu I'll have to go on to Simon
Pointarre. I've heard him well spoken
of."
"Have ye now? That's queer, for
w !
I be"—
j "Maybe, then. It was his brother,"
I said Joe quickly,
j "Which?"
"The other one that was with An '
! derson at Ked river."
J "There was nae one. only the old
muu. Simon and the two girrls."
i "Well, anyway. I'll ask the Poin
tarre's price before I close with
yours.'* v
| "I'll make a reduce to sl7 if ye agree j
here and now."
November said something further of
Atterson's high regard for Simon Poin
i tarre. which goaded old McAndrew to
fury.
"And I suppose it was love of Simon
that made him employ that family."
he snarled. "Oh. yes. that's comic,
j Twas Simon and no that grinding las
sie they call Pbedre! Atterson? Tush!
J I tell ye. if ever a man made a fule o'
i himself"—
But here, despite MeAndrew's pro- !
tests. Joe left the farm
At the store which was next visited ,
we learned the position of the Poin- I
tarre steading and the fact that old J
Pointarre, the daughters. Phedre and
j Claire, and one sou. Simon, were at j
home.
The door was opened by a girl of ]
j about twenty years of age. Her bright
| brown eyes and hair roa(3e her very j
good looking. Joe gave her a quick j
glance.
"I came to see your sister." said he. '
j "Simon." called (he girl, "here's a ]
man to see Phedre."
"What's your business?" growled a
man's voice from the inner room, j
"Why sent you?"
"Can't tell that, but I guess Miss
1 Pointarre will know when I give her
the message."
"Well. I suppose you'd best see her.
1 She's down bringing in the cows, j
! You'll find her below there in the j
i meadow."
| Joe thanked him and we set off. A ,
' twig broke .under my foot, and the 1
j girl swung round at the noise.
"What do you want?" she asked,
j She was tall and really gloriously ;
j handsome.
"I've come from Atterson I've just j
! seen him.'' said November.
"There are many people who see him |
! every day. What of that?"
"Hub! Don't they read the newspa- ■
per in Lendevill?? There's something
| about him going round. I came think- |
1 ing you'd sure want to benr." said No- {
vein be r.
The color rose in Phedre's beautiful I
i face.
"They're saying." went on Joe. "that I
I he robbed the bank where he is em- |
ployed of SIOO,OOO, and instead of try
ing to gel away on the train or by one
of the steamers be made for the
woods."
Phedre turned away as if bored.
"What interest have 1 in this? It en- j
l nuies me to listen."
"Wait!" replied November. "With
the police I went and soon struck At*
1 terson's trail on the old colonial post
road and in time come up with Atter- ;
, son himself nigh Red river. The po
lice takes Atterson prisoner, but they
found nothing. Though they searched
hini and all round about the camp, |
i they found nothing."
I "He had hidden it. I suppose."
"So the police thought And T !
thought t.he same till"—November's j
j gaze never left her face—"till I see his J
eyes. The pupils were like pin points j
In his head." He paused nnd added:
"I srot the bottle of whisky that was in
ilia pack. Tt.'ll go in as evidence."
"Of what?" she cried impatiently.
"That Atterson was drugged and the
Bank property stole from him. You i
see." continued Joe. "this robbery j
wasn't altogether Atterson'sown idea.'' ,
"Ah!"
"No. 1 goess he had the first notion I
of it. when he was on his vacation six j
weeks back. He was in love with a
wonderful handsome girl. Blue eye* !
she had and black hair, and her teeth |
was as good as yours. She pretended j
to be in love with him. but all along
she was in love with—well. I can't
say who Ae was iu love with—herself
likely. Anyway. I expect she used all
her iufiuence to uiakc Atterson rob the
| bank and then light out for the woods
with the stuff. He does all she wants, j
On his way to the woods she meets
i him with a pack of food and neces
saries. in that pack was a bottle of
j drugged whisky. She asks hint where j
he's going to camp that night, be sus- j
pei'ts nothing and tells her. and off
' she goes in a canoe up Ked river till
i she comes to opposite where he's lying
j drugged. She lands and robs him, but
i she don't want him to know who done
j that, so she plays an old game to con
ceal her tracks. She's a rare active
j young woman, so she carries out her
j plan, gets back to her carioe and home
: to I>eudeville. Need I tell any more
i about her?"
Durlug Joe's story Phedre's color had
j tlowly died away.
; "You are very clerer!" she said bit
terly. "But why sbtiuld you tell me
! I
| all this?"
"Because I'm going to advise you to !
| hand over the SIOO,OOO you took from
■ Atterson. I'm tn this case for the i
I bank."
"I?" she exclaimed violently. "Do
I you dare to say that I had anything i
| whatever to do with this robbery, that '
j I have the $100,000? Bah! 1 know |
! nothing about it. How should I?" I
! Joe shrugged his shoulders. "Then
' I beg your pardon. Miss Pointarre, and |
! 1 say good bye. 1 must go and make
i my report to the police and let them
j act their own way." He turned, but ,
j before he had gone more than a step
j or two she called to hira.
! "There Is one point: you have missed i
i for all your cleverness," she said, j
I "Suppose what you have said in true. :
may it not be that the girl who robbed ;
Atterson took the mopey just to return
it to the bank?"
"Don't seem to be that way, for she 1
; has just denied all knowledge of the
i property and denied she had it before
j two witnesses. Besides, when Atter
! son comes to know that he's been
j made a catspaw of he'll be liable to
| turn kiug's evidence. No. miss, your
1 only chance la t to hand over the stuff
j —here and now."
"To you'." she scoffed, "And who
j are you? What right have you"—
j "I'm in this case for the bank. Old
| McAndrew knows me well and can
| tell you my name."
"What is it?"
"People mostly call me November
j Joe."
! She threw back "her head—every at
titude. every movement of hers was
wonderful.
