Williamson was thoughtful. Few ttimn in hi* c*r<-er h»<1 bp ever al-lowed motive, however worthy, to be excuse for breaking the law. Hut a* he glanced et Baker, wounded, maimed In one hand, still p. • from IOKH of blood, be thought what a heart-ies'! travesty of justice It would be 1? BakPr were fnprlsoned. Whatever the t ruth of his trouble with Haskell, the great fact remained that he had gone on a thankless and prodigious patrol and had run those criminals to earth.

" I l l do what I can for you both." he promised, with no reluctance "When I go back outside I'll talk to the Kd-nmnton officials and try to get those cLargea nol-prossed. But you and Featherof see to restoring that prop-erty."

Alan promised: "We won't fall you on that . I t ' s mighty fine and square of you." After a moment, he went on : "Considering all you've agreed to, I ha te to ask still another favor. But I 've got to. I've got to speak up for Hnrdsock and Pedneault. They have charges against them, serious and t rue charges. But there's this to be said, sir. Neither man deserted. They both Intended to return here the moment our patrol ended. They ren-dered a tremendous service to the Force. They were true to duty ln the highest sense of the word. Are yoa going to look at the good they did, or a t nothing but the bad?"

Williamson did not answer. He felt the human justice of Alan's appeal. It seemed to him that the matter went deeper than a question of Insubordina-tion. Those men had been under Ba-

One of Thsse Two Men Was an Out-and-Out Liar.

' I , r ® and he knew what a pow-erful Influence Baker had over his men.

Thinking deeply, he gazed through the window, down upon the dark river. In this tangled affair, it was a sore task to Judge wisely, to do iho right thing. Baker's long patrol, his indomitable courage in goinsr af ter these men. his relentless drive In ham-mering his daring plan through to success—the whole thing was a splen-did feat. In his forty years the old officer had never seen a mere mag-nificent piece of work. It was nice Baker, like the brilliant sergeant whom he once had trusted and fought for.

But the rest of that story, his trouble with Haskell—Williamson did not accept that as true. From . t a r t i ° J ^ h B f account was an s te in o n m Haskell 's; and to the ataa old officer. Judging with tmpar-

c r L Z , " ° r y seemed more credible. Quite plainly Baker har-

fitrroi with some fool orders. Af te r a thing like that, do we have to shut up and take It and not even be al-lowed t o — r

"Sit down!" Willi IOJSOD bade them. "I'm going to get to the bottom of this. When your time comes I'll hear what you've got to say. Now Baker, I want you »o answer some questions. What made you spilt ycur detail on that first patrol?"

"Haskell ordered me to, sir. He or-dered me to follow both branches. When I objected, he threatened to bust me and keep me h( -e at the post."

"That 's a lie!" Hnskeil challenged. "I allowed him to do aa he thought best. He purposely made a fai lure of that patrol. I don't s«k you to take my word. Corporal Whipple was here In the cabin, and heard our talk. And Baker, over his slgued statement, admitted to responsibility."

"What proof have you got. Baker?" Williamson demanded.

Alan kept silent, deliberately allow-ing his silence to damn Mm. William-son's probe waa leading in the right direction, leading toward that deadly trap.

To Alan's consternation Bill Hard-sock burst out : "Proof? H—l's blue blazes! Alan was naif alck. all the way up the Alooska, because of them or-ders. He felt he was being forced to take us men Into a terrible danger. We all knew It was crazy to split up—"

Williamson silenced him. "You're merely making an sssertloD, corporal. You have no proof. Baker, do you ad-mit responsibility for that patrol?"

Alan shook his head. "No, I—I don't." he stammered.

Haskell amtled. He had Baker oa the run.

Williamson reminded: "Baker, you signed a statement of reMpon*tblllty. Whipple was • witneaa."

"But sir," he led on. "when I came back from the Alooska patrol he wouldn't co-oiM?rate with me then He didn't seem much interested. I don't think, in getting those bandits."

"Not much Interested?" Haskell evhoed. with a great show Ishnient. " s i r a patrol to the Ineonnu river. Rut he was In a temper He wouldn't even listen to my suggestion."
