Published by Arrangement with First, National Pictures, Inc., and Frank Lloyd Productions, Inc. THE STORY THUS FAR Pierce Phillips, at Sheep Camp, in the Yukon country, where he had gone to join the mad rush of miners in quest of gold, has been wrongly accused of stealing provisions. At a mob meeting of miners he is brought to trial along with Jim and Joe Mc- Caskey. The McCaskey brothers shift the guilt to him and despite all that his friends, ’Poleon Doret and Countess Courtean, can do the mob fs bent on hanging him. In a fight with Jim McCaskey, who has insulted the Countess with whom Phillips has formed a fond attach- ment, it is discovered that the NMec- ‘askeys are the guilty ones. At the pitch of excitement Jim Mecaitey escapes and someone in the mo shoots him dead. CHAPTER V. (Continted) , At the first stroke of the descend- ing whip a howl went up—a merci- less howl, a how! of fierce exulta- tion. Joe McCaskey rocked forward upon the balls of his feet; his frame was racked by a spasm of agony; he strained at his thongs until his shoulder muscles swelled. | The flesh of his back knotted and writhed; livid streaks leaped out} upon it, then turned crimson and began to trickle blood. “One!” roared the mob. The wielder of the scourge swung, his weapon again; again the leather strips. wrapped around the victim's ribs and laid open their defenseless covering. McCaskey lunged forward, then strained backward; the tent-frame creaked as he pulled at it. His head was drawn far bgck between his shoulders, his face was convulsed, and his gums were bared in a sky- ward grin. If he uttered any sound it was lost in the uproar. “Three!” the nervous shock he had undergone, and yet he was not: paralyzed, for | his eyes were intensely alive, They were wild, baleful; his roving glance was like poison to the men it f upon. “You're due to leave camp,” he was told, “and you're going to take | the first boat from Dyea Is there anything you want to say, anything you want to do, before you go Pit * nomet “Tra. hi wes arsely,. “‘I'ra These were the fitst words he had uttered; they met with astonishmeat; nevertheless he was led to the est ‘restaurant, Surrounded Silent, curiqus grotip, he ct over the counter and, wolfed a ravenous meal. When he had fin- ished he rose, turned, and stared guestioningly at the circle of hostile faces; his eyes still glittering with that basilisk glare of ratred and de. fiance. There was something huge, disconcerting, about the man. Not once had he appealed for mercy, not once had he complained, not once had he asked about his brother; he! showed neither curiosity nor concern | over Jim's fate, and now he bes trayed the utmost indifference to hie own. He merely shifted that ven« omous stare from one face to any other as if indelibly to photograph} each and every one of them upon hid mind. But the citizens of Sheep Camp were not done with him yet. Hid hands were again bound, this. tim behind him; a blanket roll was upon his shoulders, upon his bre: was hung a staring placard whi read: “I am a thief! Spit on me and send me along.” Thus decorated, he met his crown- ing indignity. Extending from the steps of the restaurant far down the street twin rows of men had formed, and this gauntlet Joe McCaskey was, e bare this ordeal forced to run. as he had borne the other. Men jeered at him, they flung handfuls of wet mogs and mud at him, they spat upon him, some even struck him, bound as he was. _ Sickened at the sight, Pierce Phil- liga witnessed the final chapter of this tragedy of chance had blown him. For one instant only did his eyes meet those of his former tentmate, but during that brief glance the latter made lain his undying hatred. Mc- E pike Laan his upper rew & grimace similar to that which he had lifted to the when agony ran through his j| velns like fire; he seemed to con- was a frightful punishment, 's flesh was being stripped from his bones. “Four!” The count went on monotonously, for the fellow with the whip swung slowly, putting his whole strength centrate the last ounce of his soul’s energy in the. sending of some word- less message. Hiellish fury, a threat tdo baneful; too ominous, for ‘ex- pression dwelt in that stare; then! a splatter of mire struck him in the face and blotted it out. When the last jeer had died away, when the figure of Joe McCaskey had disappeared into the misty twi- ght, Phillips drew a, decp breath. hat a day this had been, what a tumult he had lived through, what sp. experience he had undergone! This was an adventure! He had lived, he had made an enemy.
