He lifted the old man's hand and placed therein a buckskin bag, heavy and musical with the dull clink of gold. “Take it he faid, it is yours." But IPather Hillaire shuddered and his fingers slipped loose from the other's pressure, so that the bag fell back upon the table “I—can't,” he said sadly tanted gold.” “True,” said Velantrie, gaily, "I took it from a mine-owner who owns a thousand peons, soul and body, who drives them through hunger and op- pression down into the darkness of death with never a hope or a com- fort." His soft voice had become suddenly hard and bitter:. Father Hillaire caught breath in a sigh. “Oh, my son, I cannot vision such a thing! It cuts me to tHe heart! Give it up—give up this life. Start over—go away—into the north— | somewhere—and forget these rides, | these desperate risks, this dashing against the law of God and man!" With a quick spring Velantrie was on his feet, He swept the bag of gold into his hand and held it out. “Will you take it?” he asked evenly, *“to buy food for your poor, your | aged, your sick and your littie ones that swarm here in our blessed gar- den? Or shall I ride south again and squander it on the gaming tables . of Cejon and Caremente, on the girls of the dance halls?” He was steady, cool, ready to do | what he promised.

In the great room of the deep adobe house there were no candles lighted, for though Fanita had come soft-footed to do that service, master had waved her away. Hannon sat in one of the big chairs with the cushions and smoked the short pipe that always rode in his in- side pocket or between his lips, and listened in ineffable content to the gentle airs that came softly from the ancient keys under Belle Hannon's fingers. Stretched on a couch in the farthest corner, her glim length well nigh ompassing it from end to end, her in-browned hands beneath her head. Val lay and listened, too, though her | thoughts were not in the past but the it in the deep pocket of his cassock. | Velantrie smiled, that brilliant| lighting of his lean face that shone with the gay bunch of riders from | like a fire behind a curtain, and put-| ting a hand on the other's shoulder shook it gently. Then he whirled and put his fingers to his lips. The | whistle that startled the quiet gar-| den was enough to split the eardrums. | Instantly from the distant of the enclosure where the st stood | there came an answer, a wild, shrill, | heavy scream, the piercing neigh of a stallion, and a huge dark bulk came trotting swiftly down the walks be- neath the trees, its reign, jerked from the hands of Bonifacio, dangling at its feet. The Comet came to his master. Velantrie put his palm to the horse's lip, their secret sign of greeting. “Goodby, father,” sald Velantrie, gravely, “bucnas noches. Vale!” he added gracefully, giving the farewell in three tongues. Then he gripped the other's hand . hard, caught the pommel and Ieap_ed into the saddle without a foot to stir- rup, though the great horse stood seventeen hands to his bare shoulder. There was a sudden leap, a thun- der of hoofs on the hard-beaten earth, and they were gone, & wind and a ‘polt of speed, out through the gate ! which Boniface had opened. For a long moment Father Hil- “jafre stood in the dim light by the ‘parrow door of the church and lis- future—they had to do with the com- ing dance at Hunnewell's store, and the outlying ranches who would be there in all their gala attire. 1t would be Fourth of July and every cowpuncher who could straddle a cayuse would attend, There would be races, and, as always, the Red Brood would be there, too.
