He stopped and turned to the row
of mshogsny drswers beside him.
“Now. my boy.” he said. "can you
tell me why the one who ransacked
this room. in opening and tumbling
the contents of all the drawers
about. did not open tho two at the
bottom of tho row where I stood?“
"Because there wss nothing in
them of value. sir," replied the lad.
"What is in them?" sold my
father.
"Only old letters. sir. written to
my father, when I was in Peris—
nothing else."
“And who would know that?" said
my father.
The boy went suddenly white. ‘
"i’reclsely1” said my fsziler. "You

lie paused. his eyes on the led. his
voice doep ond gentle.
"Where is the will?" he said.
The white in the boy’s face
changed to scarlet. He looked s
moment about him in s sort of ten-
ror: then he lifted his head and put
back his shoulders. He crossed the
room to s bookcase. took down s
volume, opened it and brought out a
sheot of folded foolscnp. ‘Ile stood
up and faced my father and the men
about the room.
"This man." he said. indicating
Gosford, "has no right to take all
my father had. lie persuaded my
father and was trusted by him. But
I did not. trust him. My father saw
this plan in a. light that I did not see
it. but I did not oppose him. If he
wished to use his fortune to help
our country in the thing which he
thought he foresaw. I was willing
for him to do it.
"But." he cried. "somebody de-
ceived me. and I will not believe
that it was my father. He told me
all about this thing. I had not the

My tether bonded tumour: to
Lewis. who unfolded it and read it:
sloud. It directed digest-its of Pey-
ton Mmlmll to be sold. tho. lull of
fifty thousand dollars paid to Am
thony Goslord end tho remainder to
the son.
“But there will be no remainder."
omto is worth precisely that sum.
Ho vslued it very csrefuliy. item by.

it came to." , ; . ,.
“Nevertheless." said Lewis. "the

men? There ssh" be no question of
the writing or‘ the signature."
My father took tho new and read
it‘slowly._ and old Gaeki nosed it
over my ifsther's‘ srm.- his eyes
scorching the structure of. each
word. while Mr. Gosford sat back
comfortably in his chair like one ele
voted to nzvictory. .
"It is in Marshall's bend and sig-
nsturo." sold my father. and old
pseki nodded. wrinkling his face
under his shaggy. eyebrows. He
went sway still wagging his grizzled
head. wrote I. memorandum on all
envelope front his pocket. and one
down in his chair. _
My father turned now to young-
Marshall.
"My boy," he said, “why do you
say that someone has deceived you?"
“Because, sir." replied the lad.
“my father was to lenve me twenty
thousand dollars. That was his plan.
Thirty thousand dollars should be
set aside for Mr. Gosford. and the
remainder turned over to me."
"That would be thirty thousand
dollars to Mr. Gosford. instead of
fifty." said my father.
"Yes. sir," replied the boy: "that
is the way my father said he would
write his will. But it no not writ-
ten that way. It is fifty thousand.
dollars to Mr. Gosford. and the re-
msuider to me. If it were thirty
thousand dollars to Mr. Gosford. u
my mther said his will would be.
that would have left me twenty
thousand dollars from the estate:
but giving Mr. Gosford fifty thou-
sand dollars leaves me nothing."
“And so you edventured on e little
larceny," sneered the Englishman.
The boy stood very stnuht end;
white. . ' ‘ M .,
“I do not. understand thisthingl’»
he sold. “but I do not believe“ thst
my father would deceive me. He
never did deceive me to his life. I
may have been a dissppointment‘to
him. but my fathr was A
man." His voice went up
and clear. "And I refuseto believe-
'that he would tell me one thing sud
do another!"
One could not fail to be impresed,
or to believe that the boy spoke the
truth. . »
"We are sorry," said Lewis, “but
the will is vsiid and we cannot go
behind it." ' .
My father walked about the room.
his face in reflection. Gosford out st
his use, tmnscriblng I. note on his
portfolio. Old Gneki had gone back
to his chair and to his little case of
bottles: he got them up on his
knees, as though he would be divert-
ed by fingering the tools of his pro-
fession. Lewis was in plain distrus.
for he held the law and Rs disposi-
tion to be lnviolsble; the boy stood
with a fine defiance. ennohled by the
trust in his father's honor. One
could not tske his strstsgcln for e
criminal act: he won only 3 child.
for all his twenty years of life. And
yet Lewis saw the elements on crime.
and he knew that Gosford was writ-
ing down the evidence. . .

worked so fast end
srd so they’
could, towing or pushing logs and. -
bunches from the’hpper end of their
pond down to the new dam. Every
time they got down there they looked
eagerly to the piece where, they must
drag their logo ocross the dam to get
them in tho laughing firook below
and every :tlme theyssw that which
filled them with disappointment’ and
angry thoughts. '
What they saw was Prickly Porky
the Porcupine. "be who carries the
thousand'little spears hidden in I'll!
coat. sitting exsctly where they
wanted to cross and contentedly
gnswlng‘bnrk from a stick.
n to look so i! he intended tospend
e rest of the night there. Prickly
Porky was in no hurry. For that
matter he never is. He knew that
cover wanted. him‘ to
move, and or that yery reason he
didn’t want to move. ,Be is just as
obstinate and pig-heeded so that. _
After awhile be finished the bsrk
on that. stick. It. wss'n't. ,3 very big
stick out! his stomach wasn’t half
filled. He wonted more bark. He
wanted fresh bark. Down below him
in the wster were floating logs and
branches which Paddy and ' Mrs.
Psddy bod brought down and left
there to drag over the dam when he
should at out of the way. As he
looked own at them ‘s spark of in-
terest glowed in Prickly Pork '3 dull,
little eyes. There was the ’ srk he
wanted. If he could drag one of those
brsnches or logs up on the darn he
would have enough to keep him busy
for the rest of t e night. '
So Prickly Porky crept to the
edge of the webs: end tried to reach
one of those logs. He couldn’t quite
do it. “Oh. well, it doesn't matter."
sold he to hims f. “I've got all the
time there is. f I wait long enough
one of those logs or branches will
host within reach." So Prickly Porky
settled himself to wait. . _
Now, he could hove gone into the
Weber and pulled one of those logs
out just so well ss not. for Prickly
Porky can swim. In fact. in summer
time he often goes ‘in the voter. But
it won no longer summer. It was al-
most the ed of winter and that
