Vengeance was near and he hastened to it A mile below the rock he left his and walked rapidly toward his prey approached the crag his step became heavy, though by no means less certain He nioved stealthily up its base to the steep | incline to the lodge. His instinct had not | been false. When within a fow feet of his victims the smoldering embers of a dying fire assured him they were there. He crept | softly to the entrance of the lodge. The | moon was now high and its pale hght flooded | the primitive abode. He peered in. They { were sleeping ealmly, quictly, unconsclous | of the danger menacing them Presently Clear Eyes moved and stirved as | though disturbed by a dveam.
