AJOR CRANSTON was very 1], Heart disei nd Mrs. Cranston begged Lydia to yield to his will leat the shock of a quarrel should kill him. Gradually she was won around to a passive acceptance of Telfare, although all the time she hoped and prayed that something would happen that Would save her from her fate. George had much work to do one night. The safe was ni- ready closed and the front and rear doors of the building were locked and barred. Countrymen often came about the ‘warehouse early in tho evening, and, as he wished to be un- isturbod, he closed the door to keep them from knowing he owas there, Ho also closed the heavy wooden shutters of the front windows, that the light of his lamp might not show @hrough to the street. He worked on, unconscious of the passage of time, from 8 o'clock unth near midnight. Sud- denly he detected a sound Ifke the crunching of a grain ot wheat under foot, and, looking around, ho saw three men Btanding behind him with levelled revolvers, “We are mountain hooslers," said the leader of thé men, “put we hain't in fools by a long shot; we know our business as wel! as you know yore'n, an’ thar’s no need you ef you don't git a, move on yoreself an’ open that u'll never open It ag't it, then? , he sald, got to knucklé "said an let cay.
