Chapter 22 , COWARD'S SHOT 'URT saw a move or two yonder in the drift, but not an arrow came at him. Calling across to them Chinook jargon, he tried to work up a palaver. His party came as friends. He was not after furs or the yellow gold of the creek beds. He intended to stay only a short in the aoon in the Lilluar ranges. He had | ordered his men not to lift the shoot- stick against the Klosohees. Why then should the Klosohees try to kill tiem? Would they send a man across to talk with him and learn that the strangers brought harm? no The only answer he got was his WO hours north of the yase thed came to a place where the Lil- luar spread out into a big lakelike widening. Though the day was still young, Curt decided to camp a2t once. He stood up and looked the lake over. It was dotted with little islands, some wooded, some bare. With his glasses he studied two small ones that lay isolated out 1a the middle. One was a strip of mud | covered with red willows. The other, i| fifty yards to the east, was a mere half-acre of pea-gravel and boulders. It was free of timber, the Indian’s own element; be could build a bar- ricade of those rocks; and the thousand yards of open water all | around made a surprise attack im- possible. He led the way over, landed, and | set his party to work. a meal, repaired the canoes, brought | a small raft of fuel logs from a wooded island, pitched the tents, built a tiny fort of the boulders, and made sentry boxes on the north and west beaches. N the east shore of the lake a large tributary river ing in from the*mount; climbed on top of the ba out old John's chart, and identitie the river as the Iskitimwah.

Still no answer. Not a syllable. Piling up several flat rocks, he 1aid out an array of presents—to- hacco, six fine hunting knives which he had brought along for that pur- pose, and a big carton of sugar cubes, the best present of all, for most of the northern tribes he had ¥nown were badly sugar-starved. As he turned away, a little wisp of cloud-white puffed out from the drift; the sharp kri-ii-ng of a rifle smacked across the water; a mur- derous bullet burned through the leather of his jacket, mot three inches from his heart. He whirled around to run. Along the whole beach there was not a single boulder or drift-pile big enough to hide behind, and the near- est snag was more than two hun-} dred yards away. He made a dash for it, weaving as he ran. * He realized it was LeNoir, who had shot at him. The Klosohees had no rifies. Still in good range on the open beach, he expected every in- stant to hear that sharp-speaking rifte again. But nothing happened. ‘Why wasn't the breed trying to cut him down? To his own bewilderment he yeached the snag and leaped behind it without another bullet coming his way. As he crouched behind the snag and looked across at the«drift. he gradually saw through the queer in- cident. At so deadly a range LeNoir had felt sure of killing him with a single shot; and had whipped up his gun and fired. But his bullet had | * migsed its mark, and before he eouid shoot again the Indians had’ seized his rifie and stopped him In spite of that ugly hole thronzh his sleeve, the incident seemed good omen to Curt, and for the fit time he really believed thai he v going to win the Klosahees nvo ‘They were honest men. in thefi i« primitive way, as old Pasts l'ineclor Jamieson had s and patience he friends of them yet. stream back intc the ranges. At old John’s trapping lake, twenty-five miles east, he had a rendezvous to keep. On the chance that a plane in the Lilivar country might come in handy, he had instructed Smash to meet him there with the amphib- ian. The rendezvous was two days past already. “One devil of a chance I've got of ever meeting Smash,” he swore, “tied up as Iam. I can’tstir an inch away from this outfit.” The afternoon passed, twilight crept into the mountain valley. After supper he shoveled sand over the coals and gave his instructions: “No fires tonight, no matches struck, no talking above a low tone. Nobody is to go into those tents or anywhere near them. The farther away you stay, the better. If there’s any shooting done, Paul and I'll do it. “Francois, if you and Jocku get us into trouble with those ftchy trigger fingers, I'll set you off on a mosquito island in your bare skin. I want you to keep strictly out of this. Now understand me.” He let Paul have the west side, which faced the little willow island. Taking rifle and automatic, he him- self went up to the tip to watch the north and east. The peaks of the western range were still tinged with an orange glow, but the mountain valley wae filled with black shadow up to tim- berline. It was like a basin full of blackness, with a faint light around the rim. A bright moon overhead turned the waters to wavy silver. s thankful for that friendly sentry-go was infinitely sier than in darkness.
