He, too, watched the agitated pair “Why-—look here!” the secretary gasped, after & moment or two “This—this gives you control!" Bell Nelson raised a stricken face, “Control 7" he repeated, faintly Control " He strode to the end of the table, and with shaking hands he ran through the sheaf of neatly folded certificates. “Sold out, by God!" He fell to cursing certain men, the names of whom caused Bwope and Murphy and Gage to prick up their ears. Gray was still staring at the junior Neleon; it was to him more than to the father he spoke: “Sold out is right! It came high, but I think it was worth the price. We intend to wvote our stock."y, “By that I Infer that you're going to take the bank over—take its man- agement away from Bell and Henry?" Bennett Swope ventured, “Naturelly.” s The elder Nelson voiced an unin- telligible exclamation. “That's a pretty rough deal, Bell has put his lite into it. It is an— an institution, a credit to the com- munity. It would be a misfortune if it fell into the hands of—into the ocontrol of somehody who—" The ranchman hesitated, then blurted forth, angrily: “Well, T don’t like the look of this thing. I want to know what it means.” “I'll tell you,” Henry cried, uneven- ly. “I'Il tell you what it means. Persecution! Revenge! Hatred! 1 quarreled with this man, in France. He's vindictive; he followed me here ~—tried every way to ruin me—cost me thousands or dollars. Father and 1 were—we were pinched. We had {o realize some quick money to pro- tect our oil holdings—offsets and the like—and we sold a lot of our stick with the understanding that we could —+that we would buy it back at a higher figure. We only borrowed on it, you might say—hypothecated it. \We thought we were dealing with {riends, but—Friends! My God!" The speaker seized his head. “The stock was not hypothecated. You sold it.” Gray sald, quietly, “and we bought it in.” “It is all a personal grudge.” “Is that true, inquired. “Bubstantially. But I'm waiting for Colonel Nelson to tell you more; to tell you the whole story of our an- tagonism.” Martin Murphy, who had been a sllent onlooker up to this point, made himeself heard. “Mr. Gray, 1 don’t like the look of this any better than Swope does. You say you paid high for your stock; do you intend to wreck the institution, lose a for- tune—?" “I had ventured to hope that you three gentlemen would remain on the " matter, a Mr, Gray?" Swope “He doesn't want the bank,” Henry Nelson exclaimed, hoarsely, ‘“That's all a bluff. He wants his price. How much Gray? ‘What'll it cost us?”’ “Oh, there is a price for every- thing! Mine will surprise you, how- ever, it is so low, Can’t you guess what it is?" The speaker's intent gaze had never left Henry N son's face; it was fixed there now, as cold, as relentless as the stare of a python. Bell Nelson leaned forward, his lips parted, a new eagerness came into his purple countentnce. “Well, well! What is it?” he demanded, querously. “Vindication!"

Confusion followed, Tt was of short duration, Lowever, for Henry found himself locked in the arms of the Briskow giant. Gray continued. “I have some- thing to say to you gentlemen before we go on with the meeting, and T wish to say it in the presence of Colonel Nelson and his—" “Yon'll not keep me here, I refuse to stay,” Henry shouted, and he pushed past Swope toward the door. “Wait!"
