SYNOPSIS.

The scene at the opening of the story I

laid In the library of an old wornou-eouthern plantation , known as the Barony. The place is to be sold , and Ithistory and that of the owners. tn-

Qulntards , is the subject of discussion b ;

Jonathan Crenshaw , a business man ,

stranger known as Bladen , and Bol-Yancy , a farmer , when Hannibal WayniHazard , a mysterious child of the ousouthern family , makes his appearanceYancy tells how he adopted the boy.

CHAPTER III. ( Continued ) .

The next day Yancy had occasloi-to visit Balaam's Cross Roads. Crenshaw gave him a disquieting opinioi-as to the probable contents of his let-

ter, for he himself had heard fron-Bladen that he had decided to as-

Bume the care of the boy-."I

.

reckon Bladen will have the lav-

on his side , Bob ! ""The law be damned 1 got what' !

fair on mine. I don't wish fo' betteithan that ," exclaimed Yancy , over hi !

Bhoulder. He strode from the stonand started down the sandy road at i

brisk run. Miserable forebodings o :

an impending tragedy leaped up with-In hira , and the miles were manjthat lay between him and the Hill.-

As.

he breasted the slope he came

within sight of a little group in hhown dooryard. Saving only UnchSammy Bellamy , the group resolvecitself Into the women and children ol

the Hill , but there was one smal.figure he missed. The patriarch hur-ried toward him , leaning on his cane

"They've took your nevvy , Bob ! " hcried , in a high , thin voice-

."Who's.

took him ?" asked Yancj-hoarsely. .

"Hit were Dave Blount. Get youigun , Bob , and go after him kill themiserable sneaking cuss ! " cried UncleSammy. "By the Fayetteville KoadBob, not ten minutes ago you cancut him off at Ox Road forks ! "

Yancy breathed a sigh of relief. A

rifle was placed In Yancy's hands-."Thank

.

you-all kindly ," said Yancy ,

and turning away he struck oH

through the pine woods. A brisk walb-

of twenty minutes brought him to theOx Road forks.-

He.

had not long to wait , for pres-ently the buggy hove in sight. As thebuggy came nearer he recognized hisancient enemy in the person of theman who sat at Hannibal's side , andstepping Into the road seized thehorses by their bits. At sight of himHannibal shrieked his name in de¬

light.-

"Uncle.

Bob Uncle Bob " he cried.-"Yes

.

, it's Uncle Bob. You can lightdown , Nevvy. "

"Leggo them horses ! " said Mr.Blount-

."Light.

down , Nevvy ," said Yancy ,

still pleasantly.Hannibal instantly availed himself

of the invitation. At the same mo-

ment¬

Blount struck at Yancy with hi8whip , and his horses reared wildly ,

thinking the blow meant for them.Seeing that the boy had reached theground in safety , Yancy relaxed hishold on the team , which instantlyplunged forward. Then as the buggyswept past him he made a grab at-

Blount and dragged him out over thewheels into the road , where he pro-

ceeded¬

to fetch Mr. Blount a smackin the jaw. Then with a final skiltulkick he sent Mr. Blount sprawlipg.-"Don't

.

let me catch you arour. - thesediggings again , Dave Blounv , or 1

swear to God I'll be the death ofyou ! "

Hannibal rode home through thepine woods in triumph on his UncleBob's mighty shoulders.

CHAPTER IV.

Law it Balaam's Cross Roads.But Mr. Yancy was only at the be-

ginning¬

of his trouble. Three dayslater there appeared on the bordersof Scratch Hill a gentleman armedwith a rifle. It was Charley Balaam ,

old Squire Balaam's nephew.-"Can

.

I see you friendly , BobYancy ?" Balaam demanded with thehangs of a stentor, sheltering himselfbehind the thick bole of a sweetgum ,

for he observed that Yancy held hisrifle in the crook of his arm.-

"I.

reckon you can , Charley Balaam ,

If you are friendly ," said Yancy-."I'm

.

a-going to trust you , Bob ," saidBalaam. And forsaking the shelterof the sweetgum he shuffled up theslope.-

"How.

are you , Charley ?" askedYancy , as they shook hands.-

"Only.

Just tolerable , Bob. You'vebeen warranted Dave Blount sworehit on to you. " He displayed a sheetof paper covered with much writingand decorated with a large seal-

."Read.

It ," he said mildly. Bala&mscratched his head.-

"I.

don't know that hit's my duty to-

io that , Bob. Hit's my duty to serveIt on to you. "

At this Juncture Uncle Sammy'sbent form emerged from the path thatled off through the woods In the di-

rection¬

of the Bellamy cabin. Withthe patriarch was a stranger.-

"Howdy.

, Charley. Here , Bob Yancy ,

F<MI hak* bands wltb Bruce Carrlnjf-

ton ," commanded Uncle Sammy. A

the name both Yancy and Balaarmanifested interest. They saw a main the early twenties , clean-limbeiand broad-shouldered , with a hancsome face and shapely head. "Yessir , hit's a grandson of Tom Carrington that used to own the grist-mildown at the Forks. "

"Where you located at , Mr. Cai-

rington ?" asked Yancy. But Cai-

rington was not given a chance t-

reply.. Uncle Sammy saved him thtrouble.-

"Back.

In Kentucky. He takes raitdown the river to New Orleans , thei-

he comes back on ships to Balti-more , or else he hoofs it no'th overland. He wants to visit the Forks , '

he added.-"I'm

.

shortly goin' that way myselfMr. Carrington , and I'll be pleased oyour company but first I got to gethrough with Bob Yancy ," said Ba-

laam , and again he produced the warrant. "If agreeable to you , Bob , i'iask Uncle Sammy to read this her <

warrant. "

"Who's been a-warrantin' Bol-

Yancy ?" cried Uncle Sammy.-

"Dave.

Blount has.""I knowed hit I knowed he'd tr :

to get even ! What's the charge agiiyou , Bob ?"

"Read hit," said Balaam. "Why-

sho' can't you read plain writin'Uncle Sammy ?" for the patriarch wasshowing signs of embarrassment.-

"If.

you gentlemen will let me '

said Carrington pleasantly. Alter i-

moment's scrutiny of the paper thaiBalaam had thrust in his hand , Carrington began :

"To the Sheriff of the County of Cum-

berland : Greetings :

"Whereas , It is alleged that a mur-

derous assault has been committed orone David Blount , of Fayetteville , bjRobert Yancy , of Scratch Hill , saidBlount sustaining numerous bruisesand contusions , to his great injury ol

body and mind ; and , whereas , it is

further alleged that said murderousassault was wholly unprovoked andwithout cause , you will forthwith takeinto custody the person of said Yancy-of Scratch Hill , charged with havinginflicted the bruises and contusionsherein set forth In the complaint ol

said Blount , and instantly bring himinto our presence to answer to theseand several crimes and misdemean-ors. . You are empowered to seize saidYancy wherever he may be at ; wheth-er on the hillside or in the valley ,

eating or sleeping , or at rest.-

"DE.

LANCY BALAAM , Magistrate-."Fourth

.

District , County of Cum-

berland , State of North Carolina. Donethis twenty-fourth day of May , 1835.-

"P.

.

. S. Dear Bob : Dave Blount sayshe ain't able to chew his meat , l

thought you'd be glad to know. "

Smilingly Carrington folded thewarrant and handed it to Yancy-

."Well.

, what are you goin' to do

about hit , Bob ?" inquired Balaam.-"Maybe

.

I'd ought to go. I'd liketo oblige the squire ," said Yancy-

."Suppose.

I come to the Cross-

Roads this evening ?"

"That's agreeable , " said the deputy ,

who presently departed in company

with Carrington.Some hours later the male popula-

tion

¬

of Scratch Hill , with a gravitybefitting the occasion , prepared itselfto descend on the Cross Roads andgive its support to Mr. Yancy in hishour of need. Even Uncle Sammy ,

who had not been off the Hill inyears , announced that no considera-tion

¬

of fatigue would keep him away

from the scene of action , and Yancyloaned him his mule and cart for theoccasion. Yancy led the stragglingprocession , with the boy trotting by

his side , his little sunburned listclasped in the man's great hand.

The squire's court held its infre-quent

¬

sittings in the best room of theBalaam homestead , a double cabin ofhewn logs. Here Scratch Hill wasgratified with a view of Mr. Blount'sbattered visage-

."What's.

all this here fuss betweenyou and Bob Yancy ?" demanded thesquire when he had administered theoath to Blount. Mr. Blount's state-ment

¬

was brief and very much to thepoint-

."He.

done give me the order fromthe judge of the co't I was to showit to Bob Yancy "

"Got that order ?" demanded thesquire sharply. With a smile , dam-

aged

¬

, but clearjy a smile , Blount pro-

duced

¬

the order. "Hmm app'lnted-guardeen of the boy " the squire'waspresently heard to murmur. Thecrowded room was very still now , andmore than one pair of eyes wereturned pityingly in Yancy's direction.When the long arm of the lawreached out from Fayetteville , wherethere was a real judge and a realsheriff , It clothed itself with terrors.-

"Well.

, Mr. Blount , what did you dowith this here order?" asked thesquire.-

"I.

showed Yancy the order "

"You lie, Dave Blount ; you didn't ! "

said Yancy. "But I can't say as itwould have made no difference.

squire. He'd have taken his lickingjust the same and I'd have had my-

nevvy out of that buggy ! ""Didn't he say nothing about this

here order from the co't , Bob ?"

"There wa'n't much conversation ,

squire. I invited my nevvy to lightdown , and then I snaked Dave Blountout over the wheel."

"Who struck the first blow ?"

"He did. He struck at me with hisbuggy whip. "

Squire Balaam removed his spec-

tacles¬

and leaned back in his chair-."It's

.

the opinion of this here co'tthat the whole question ot assaultrests on whether Bob Yancy saw theorder. Bob Yancy swears he didn'tsee it, while Dave Blount swears heshowed it to him. If Bob Yancy didn'tknow of the existence of the order hewas clearly actin' on the idea thatBlount was stealin' his nevvy , and hedone what any one would have doneunder the circumstances. If , on theother hand , he knowed of this orderfrom the co't , he was not only guiltyof assault , but he was guilty of re-

sistin'-

an officer of the co't. " Thesquire paused impressively. His audi-ence

¬

drew a long breath.-"Can

.

a body drap a word here ?"

It was Uncle Sammy's thin voice thatcut into the silence-

."Certainly.

, Uncle Sammy. Thishere co't will always admire to listento you. "

"Well , I'd like to say that I con-

sider¬

that Fayetteville co't mighty of-

ficious¬

with its orders. This part ofthe county won't take nothln' offFayetteville ! We don't interfere withFayetteville , and blamed if we'll letFayetteville interfere with us ! "

There was a murmur of approval.Scratch Hill remembered the rifles inits hands and took comfort.-

"The.

Fayetteville co't air a higherco't than this , Uncle Sammy ," ex-

plained¬

the squire indulgently.-"I'm

.

aweer of that ," snapped thepatriarch. "I've seen hit's steeple. "

"AJr you finished , Uncle Sammy ?"

asked the squire deferentially.-"I

.

'low I am. But I 'low that ifthis here case Is goin' again BobYancy I'd recommend him to go homeand not listen to no mo' foolishness. "

"Mr. Yancy will oblige this co't bysetting still while I finish this case ,"said the squire with dignity. "Mr-.Yancy

.

has sworn to one thing , Mr-

.Blount.

to another. Now the Yancysair an old family in these parts ; Mr-

.Blount's.

folks air strangers. Conse-quently

¬

, " pursued the squire , some-what

¬

vindictively , "we ain't had any-

time*

In which to/form an opinion of

the Blounts ; but for myself , I'm sus-

picious

¬

folks that keep movin'about and who don't seem able to getlocated permanent nowheres , who airhere today and away tomorrow. Butyou can't say that the Yancys.

*

They air an old family In the countryand naturally co't feels obligedto accept a Yancy's word before theword of a stranger. And , In view ofthe fact that the defendant did notseek litigation , but was perfectly sat-

isfied

¬

to Jet matters rest where theywas , it is right and just that all costsshould fall on the plaintiff."

CHAPTER V.

The Encounter.Betty Malroy had ridden into the

squire's yard during the progress olthe trial and when Yancy and Han-nibal

¬

came from the house she beck-oned

¬

the Scratch Hiller to her.-

"You.

are not going to lose yournephew , are you , Mr. Yancy ?" sheasked eagerly , when Yancy stood ather side.-

"No.

, ma'am." But his sense of ela-

tion¬

was plainly tempered.-"I

.

am very glad. I rode out to theHill to say good-by to Hannibal andto you , but they said you were hereand that the trial was today."

Captain Murrell , with Crenshaw andthe squire , came from the house , andMurrell's swarthy face lit up at sightof the girl. Yancy would have yield-

ed

¬

his place , but Betty detained him-

."Are.

you going away , ma'am ?" heasked with concern.-

"Yes.

my home In west Tennes-see

¬

," and a cloud crossed her smoothbrow-

."But.

ain't you ever coming back,

Miss Betty ?" asked Hannibal rath ifearfully.-

"Oh.

, I hope so , dear." She turnedto Yancy. "I wonder you don't leavethe Hill , Mr. Yancy. You could soeasily go where Mr. Bladen wouldnever find you. Haven't you thoughtof this ?"

"That are a p'int ," agreed Yanc-slowly.

>

. "Might I ask you what partsyou'd specially recommend ?" liltinghis grave eyes to hers.-

"It.

would really be the sensible *

thing to do ! " said Betty. "I am sureyou would like west Tennessee theysay you are a great hunter. " Yancysmiled almost guiltily.-

"Mr..

. Yancy, if you should cross themountains , remember I live nearMemphis. Belle Plain is the name ofthe plantation it's not hard to find ;

just don't forget Belle Plain. "

"I won't forget , and mebby yo i willsee us there one of these days. Sho' ,

I've seen mighty little of the worldabout as far as a dog can trot in acouple hours ! "

Betty glanced toward the squireand Mr. Crenshaw. They stand-ing

¬

near the bars that gave entranceto the lane. Murrell had lett themand was walking briskly dcwn theroad toward Crenshaw's store , wherehis horse was tied. She bent downand gave Yancy her slim white hand

"Good-by , Mr. Yancy lift Hanniba )
