Chapter Nine IN DANGER ae they drew near the landing Curt. looked down the shore. eeven hundred yards and saw four old stone houses in the middie of a second-growth clearing. He kcew what they were; at Tel- lacet_ he had heard stories abont those. ruins. An ancient Russian fur post, located: there when: Washing- ton wag.leading the new-born Amer- ican Republic, it was a relic of the days when Russia ruled western America. from Nome to northern California, and predatory Cossacks, with “musket, sword and the help of God,” gathered tribute for the Little White Father in faraway St. Petersburg. Except for inland stations in Alaska, it was one of the few. posts which the Cossack expedition had established at any distance from tidewater. The four stone structures, y above the second growth, balf-hidden by wood vines and wild ivy, much as their actual his- tory had, been overgrown with tale and superstition. The. canoe. nosed. in to the pier. Pani jumped ont and lapped the painter. around a cleat. As Curt tossed their duffle on the planking, be purposely made a display of their two, gold pans and short-handled shovels. Among the men watching them a.trapper nudged another and remarked, “Prospectors, John.” Heade nodded. It was as Curt had wished—let them draw their own conclusion and they. would believe it far more im- plicitly than if Paul and he should announce their business. He introdaced Paul and himself to the. old trapper called John, who then introduced them to the others. 4s Curt shook hands around, he sized up the men swiftly. Corporal Hodkins, the Mounted Policeman, was.a stolid negligible fellow who would be neither a help Bor hindrance. Missioner Lespér- ance, a youngish scholar with the eyes of a mystic, seemed to have stepped. right. out of some medieval _loister. Besides the Bay factor, Hig- Biol m, there were tliree young trapt ers, a prospector, a man called Ralph Nichols and a middle-aged elty sportsman with a brassy voice and know-everything manner. The Indian men, standing off by themselves, were a shabby vacant- faced lot. Under a fish scaffolding just ashore seven haif-breeds were smoking, drinking, quarreling. Hod- kins was a poor excuse of a Mounty, Curt thought, to let men drink open- ly in Indian territory. The man Nichols, quiet and unob- trusive, was the most interesting of the group. No outdoors person at all but plainly trom the city, ne ap- Deared to be some minor govern- ‘ment official or a teacher vacation- ing In the mountains. URT liked him from their first *bandelasp. And that liking never Grew less, in the days they were to spend together. He little knew that he was destined to travel a long path with Ralph Nichole and be with him, tis only friend. when Ralph tey ps le @ lonely campfire. ‘t | meet you over at Chipe wyfljonce?” he asked. to draw Nich ols out. AD “No, | never was there.” With his reticent smile, Nichols added, “I'm & prospector for bugs—an entomolo silat.” i,see,J don't suppose you've got much competition in this country.” He Invited, “Come down to our place later on and ha mug of tea with us. Nichols.” Picking up their duffle, he and Paul went down the shore to make camp. Before dark came they want ed to get squared around and also attend to a certain scouting job which they had mapped out as their first step there at Russian Lake. Midway between the modern post and the old ruins they found a suit- able spot close to the woods edgq and began pitching their tent, Nearer the old post now, Cart could see the narrow musket-slit windowa, the platforms for mounting small brass cannons, and all the fortlike arrangement of the ruins. It had deem more a garrison than a fur post, for the Cossacks had not been traders. but extorters of tribute, and thes had needed defense. The United States th Department announces that Hills. boro, Tampa Bay Lights wil! be removed temporarily comn: about December 5 to permit wi ing of the channel. It is stated that the lights will be replaced after the werk on channel has been completed. oe. enoee The main build to decay: briar and slave quarters ;the pi been struck by a blast No tepee or cabin stood m8 cient post; its very vicinl shunned like a haunted place, Paul started driving tent peg Curt stepped inside and began ex- amining their duffle, to make sure he had overlooked no label or initial- ing which might give them away to a suspicious prowler. While he was doing this, he heard Paul stop pound- ing and say “Bon soir” to someone, Glancing out the flap-front he saw a girl go past, carrying a fish rod, creel and canoe paddle. | He had only a fleeting glimpse ot | her, but that glimpse made him | straighten up and-stare, She was | wearing a blue corduroy dress, laced | moceasins, a tam, and a sweater | blouse with one elbow worn through, Her hair was a brownish golden; she walked along with a lancelike | erecthess of body; and her,face—he | saw it only in profile—was so beau- | tiful and so strange in its type of | beauty that he kept staring through | the flap-front for moments after she j{ had gone by. ' When he finished and went out- side she was already out upon the | lake in a birchbark canoe, skirling | toward a cluster of wooded islets | half a mile. offshore. Trouting, he | guessed. [f she was anything of a | fisherman she ought to snag some | big ones in the shallows ‘around | those islands; but from the awk: | ward way she handled the paddle | she was plainly a tenderfoot. He turned to Paul, who was, watch know?” “A stranger to me, to my regret.” Curt smiled at his rapt gaze. “You find her pretty, don’t you? Aa pretty as p’tite Régina Ducharme at Fort Chipewyan?” “Almost!” “Humph! That’: a big admission from you!” | i HE girl disappeared among the islands, Curt went on with the camp work. Bending down a near-by sapling, he tied their grub pack to the top of it and flipped the sapling up again, safely caching the supplies ' from stray huskies, | He stepped back into the timber to find a dead birch for fuel. The tropical luxuriance of the woods amazed him, even though he had made trips up Juneau way and knew the “drizzle country” well. DIAMONDBA) EVENING PARK HAD ISH; SCORE WA! (By O. L.
