Chapter 11 THE BLOCKADE RAHAME, bending over the pros- trate fiyer high up on the little shelving beach, saw Winslow’s eyes ypen. For an instant the eyes were blank; whereupon consciousness flooded them. He smiled ancertainly. “Spin Winslow,” he murmured, “once Consolidated’s stunt-man: now does bathing beauty bits. Thanks, Frank.” | “Sbut up, you idiot, and lie still.| Here—" But Winslow had rolled over on his chest, and drawing his knees under bim strove to rise. Encircling his waist with his arm, Frank pulled him to his feet. “I'm all right,” Spin gasped, “arm’s still on the fritz but [ can walk. Let's get up to the road.” Facing the sea, between them and the road-level above, was a short cliff. Grahame pushed his companion before him. They made slow prog- ress, Winslow hooking his sound el- bow and knees into crevices ir the | sandstone wall, and Frauk support- ing him with his shoulder from be- hind. Finally they sprawled over the lip of the cliff It was a scant two hundred yards to *he road. They stumbled over loose rock until they stood upon the stony and muddy unevenness that was called the road to Encinada. Winslow said, “Well, here we are. Once when the road was dry | made it from Caliente to Encinada—that's seventy miles—in two hours. But I nearly tore the tires off doing it. Our friends won’t go so fast. Even with their Lour's start, I think we're ahead of them.” “Hope s0,” commented Grahame briefly. He strode to the side of the high- way and began pulling rocks into the middle of the road. “That’s the stuff, Frank. Get a few of those babies festooned across and they'd stop a tractor.” Frank completed his barricade. It was not elaboiate but it would serve. There was the possibility that a car other than the one they awaited would come- first. In that case he would ¢ommandeer it—if he could— (to take them into the town ahead. Winslow’s arm—it was a break or a dislocation- -would need prompt attention. And doubtless it was more practical to await the arrival of Jan- dce Kent and he. abductors tlanked by local authority. It was the saner performance, and safer perhaps for Jani - There was always the possibility that be would fail 1o stop the car The car contained, he knew. three determined men. They would be armed, doubtlessly. Well, so would he, bat three against ope. with Janice’s presence jeopardizing his efficiencr, were odds that gave bim some little thought. E took out his army automatic, slipped out the clip and shook it free of water; he slid Lack thé cock- ing mechanism and with his hand- kerchief wiped the arm as free of moisture as he could. Winslow, watching from the roadside, whistled, “Haven't seen one of those for years,” he said. “If the cops back in town caught you with that they'd write y 1 a letter” Frank grinned. “Just an ounee of préventicn, Spin.

As he dragged off his goat, he glue. He brushed loose stones from spot on the ground and adjusted ot the other. ing head. The engine’s sound was louder; a beam .f swinging light glowed and vanished upon hillsides a quarter mile to the north. Frauk stepped behind his impro- vised barricade of stones and drew his weapon. The stones across the road would stop the car he was surd® —unless the driver elected to crash througn. It the driver suspected he was | being stopped he niight taake the attempt; it did not matter whether the car was the one he awaited or some stranger. The driver’s rea tion —seeing an armed map waiting on | the other side of the barricade— would be the came. He withdrew to the side and crouched behini a larger boulder. Headlights glared from behind the nearest turn. The engine roared spasmodically gs the car lurched over the une-en road-bed. Frank could not discover the car’s make or condition/ behind the daz- zling light. The automobile ap- proached the ro ks strung across the road; he heard the springs sjueak their protest at the jouncing. Brakes squealed. A ..ar within the car called something unintelligible. He heard the ratchet of the hand-brake click. As' the driver's door opened he saw suddenly that this was the tan car that had crashed Janice Keut's motor at the Hollywood intersection three nig' ¢ before. Now, however, the top was up and the side-curtains fastened. He arose from behind his boulder and leaped forward, MAN stepped out of the open door. Startled recognition leaped into his eyes as he saw Grahame Over his. shoulder Frank was con scious of a gleam of metal. Instine. tively he swerved. Flame staebbed from within the car—a gun crashed. Frank felt the tug of the passing bullet at the side of his coat. The driver’s hand was thrust within his coat lapel. Before he could withdraw it, Frank swung his pistol forward. The heavy barrel met the forehead The driver lurched backward against a fender. Grahame swung and dropped to his kuees. Again the gun from within the car roared. Frank threw up the muzzle of his weapon and fired at the flash. A man cried out; there was the clang of metal. A door struck tinnily ugainst the side of the car. Springing to his feet, Frank tore at the rear door of the ear. He jerked it open, twisted siceways and thrust his gun within. Instantly he saw that the two opposite doors were open. Through the other rear door he saw two men clawing up the short em bankment. The one to the left thrust up his hand gripping at a road post. It was black:spotted with blood. As he watched, the other, a smaller man, drew himself erect upon the top of the bank. His face was in profile. The mose was disproportionately large. s hooked beak of a nose, preda- tory and vulturine. Frank's gun lift- ed; his trigger finger contracted slightly. He did not fire, but shook his head to throw off the confusing mist the clash tad induced. He dropped his arm; he peered irto the dark recess of the tonneau. | Janice Kent was there. Her face was vague, her eyes round and star- ing. He saw that she was gagged. Fumblingly he worked at the gnot At the back of her neck. He was cop- scious of a curipus combination of odorsi~the acrid tanz of exploded gunpowder and a fragrance that was Janice Kent's hair. His hants shook B littles The cloth about her mouth dropped. He lowered his arms and encircled her. He lifted her from the | seat and backed thiough the door. Setting her upon the ground he saw that hor hands were tied. It took him but an instant to loosen the knots. She swayed coward him. For a dis- tressing instant he thought that she was about to faint. He put his arms about hir to hold her upright; euri- ously she did not fall, but pressed against him; her hands gripped the cloth of his eoit tightly. “Janice!” he muttered hoarseiy-“. . . you all right? , Her cheek geemed/to press his lapel. Sne murmured; “1 don't know. 1 think so. 1—" Nearby a masculine voice spoke anxiously. “She all right, Frank? They haven't—" Sharply Janice Kent withdrew from Frank’s support. They looked toward the volewu. Winslow stood in the light of the car’s headlights. little “Sorry, folks. ] just came to.
