gSIf The FEUD SINGLE SHOTJ - By Luke Short—j=| 19th INSTALLMENT "He's dead," Rosy said. "Trials are expensive, the sheriff thinks." "I'm talkin' to you now Crow (11," Rosy said. "I was under the when you were talkin' to Mrs. Winters and her husband. 1 heard the conversation you and Winters had when Mrs. Winters •.vent out of the room. Dave over heard from Sayres that you or dered the kidnaping of Dorsey Lammond, and the deed signed v. as in your favor. More than that, you left orders before Hank arrested you to burn the D Bar T, so as to make Mary sign away her half the spread. What've you got to say?" "Prove it," Crowell said calmly. "I demand to be placed in Jail and have this go through the regular channels!" Rosy sighed and turned to the sheriff. "Hear that, Hank? He demands a trial." "Yeah, I heard it," the sheriff said. "Better let me take him to jail." Rosy shrugged. "All right. Dave'll go with you. I'll talk to Pearson." "I can handle him alone," the sheriff said. There was menace in his speech. "Gimme them keys," he said to Quinn. Suddenly, Mary cried out. She took three swift steps and faced Rosy. "Rosy, don't do it! Don't do! You know what will hap pen!" The room was deathly still. &osy shrugged, avoiding her eye. "I ain't the sheriff, ma'am," he muttered. Mary wheeled to face Dave. "Dave, are you going to let him? Are you—are you that callous?" She sank into a chair, sobbing quietly. "You better be careful, Hank," Hammond said cautiously. "Yeah, I will," the sheriff grunted. "Come on," he said to Crowell. No one spoke as they heard the lront door shut. Rosy watched Pearson's face. The banker sag ged. Two muffled shots from some distance came to them, and they looked at each other. "Mr. Pearson," Dorsey broke in from Hammond's side, "if you know anything, tell it! It's—it's awful!" "For God's sake, yes, Everett!" Hammond broke in gruffly. Pearson hung his head. The outer door opened and heavy footsteps trailed through the house. The porch door open ed to let the sheriff in again. "A quick trip," Laredo said quietly. "Uh-huh." The sheriff rolled a cigarette and lighted it, then looked at Rosy. "Well?" "No go." The sheriff walked over to Rosy's side and stood looking down at Pearson. There was a faint smell of gunpowder on his clothes. "Better come along, Pearson," he growled. Mattie Mae Powell NOTARY PUBLIC Building & Loan Office Main Street FOR COUNTY COMMISSIONER I —■ k | A, 4 Dave (H. D.) Woodruff of Elkin is a native of Surry County, and has always been a loyal and sub stantial citizen. He is a candidate for County Commissioner on the Republican ticket, and has hun dreds of friends and supporters throughout the County who pre dict his election by a substantial majority. Mr. Woodruff has been all his life intensely interested In the welfare and upbuilding of his County and Community and will appreciate the loyal support of his many friends in the coming election. —Political Advertisement— "One's enough, Hank," Ham mond put in curtly. "It might be for you, but it ain't for me. I got elected on a oath that I'd do my best to pre vent crime. If you think I'm go ing to let him go and have this to go through all over again, you better take a longer guess." "How you goin' to cover it up?" "Crowell's over at Pearson's place now, lyin' on the floor with a gun in his hand," the sheriff said brutally. "Pearson can be across the room with a gun in his hand when I come in with my deputy in the mornin' after the bank asts me to find him. Just a plain case of two men shootin' each other." He turned to face Pearson, but the banker had crumbled. "Oh, God, get him away!" Pearson moaned through hi s hands. He crawled down the bed against the wall, where he hud dled like a small boy fearing punishment. "I did it! I did it! Get him away!" - "I reckon it begins with the train hold-up, dont it, Pearson?" Dave asked. Pearson nodded. "How did you know that?" "That ranny by the name of Chinch out at Sayres' place," Dave said. Quinn frowned, then turned to Pearson. "The money in the baggage car was go in' to your bank, was it?" Pearson nodded. "Crowell gave Sayres the order to stick up the train. Part of the money would be given to Sayres, and the rest turned over to me. You see that money was insured. I would get that same amount back from the insurance company—" "And about three-quarters of what was stolen back from Sayres through Crowell, is that it?" Quinn said. "That's it," Pearson said. The porch door opened and Crowell stepped into the room, prodded by the sheriff's gun. Pearson's Jaw slacked and he stared at Crowell. Rosy grinned at Pearson. Crowell walked to his seat by Pearson, glaring at the sheriff. "Want to go on?" Rosy said to Pearson. The banker shook his head. Rosy grinned. "It's a little too late to stop, now, I reckon. You've confessed to robbin' a train and falsifyin" reports to the insurance company. That ought to be worth about twenty years apiece in the pen." Still Pearson said nothing. "Maybe it's that you don't want to mix Crowell in this? Is that it?" Rosy asked. He laughed softly. "I reckon you will, though, Pearson. To begin with, you couldn't stand to see Crowell turned loose, freed, while you were servin' a life term in the pen, could you? He did all the dirty work, was responsible for all the crimes and he goes free. It isn't fair, is it?" "Maybe he'll send you some to bacco around (Christmas time," Rosy taunted. "He will not!" Pearson sudden ly snarled. "He'll go with me!" Crowell's fist drove into Pear son's face and Rosy leaped on the two figures. Crowell struggled as if insane, clawing Pearson's face in a maniacal rage, kicking, bit ing and cursing impotently. Lar edo stepped in to help Rosy and after a mild clubbing with gun barrels, Crowell gave up. Rosy and Laredo sat down STATEMENT EQUITABLE LIFE ASBUR. SOCIETY (ACCI. DEPT.)

Both men began to babble at once. "Pearson, let's hear you first. No. Wait." Rosy's eyes sought Dave, and hp leaned over to him. "What about it?" he asked soft ly, motioning to Mary. "Is it about Ted?" Mary asked calmly. Dave nodded. "I'd rather hear it now," Mary said. Pearson drew a long breath and began. "It starts when I offered to buy the Draw Three, Buck," he said to Hammond. "You re member when I had the expert come look at it? He told me there was gold there, lots of it, but that you were missing most of it. He said it would be over to the north more, in the quartz. 8o I tried to loan you enough money so that the control of the mine would be in my hnads. It didn't work " "And there's gold there now?" Hammond asked incredulously. "Enough to make you rich," Pearson said. He addressed Rosy again. "Then I got hold of Win ters. He tried to forge a check once and I caught him." Rosy looked at Mary. Her eyes were moist but her chin was up. "Was that before he was mar ried?" he asked. "Yes." "Why didn't you prosecute him?" * . "I can always use men that have brains but no courage," Pearson said. "I was repaid, all right. A little while after he had been married, he came to me with the story of gold on the Turner place. He wanted me to buy the place from his wife and Turner, and then we'd work it together. That was when I con ceived my plan. I wanted a man with brains, with courage, with resourcefulness and who was poor. Crowell fitted that order. He was out to get rich, and when I found him in Walpais, I knew my scheme would work. Crowell was a gambler—and a poor one." "A fool, you mean," Crowell said. "So I was careful to work it all out," Pearson said. "I knew that Sayres was a blackguard, and that he could be bought. So I put Crowell up as my front, for I was to remain unknown. Crow ell tried to buy the D Bar T from Mrs. Winters. She wouldn't sell. He tried to buy the Draw Three. Hammond wouldn't sell. I knew of the quarrel over the lake, and that fitted into my scheme to perfection. I thought if the lake was blown out, both the ranch and the mine would be ruined, and that Turner and Hammond would both sell to Crowell. Win ters was to persuade Mrs. Win ters." "And he was cheating you all the time," Quinn put in quietly. "He was mining that gold on the sly and selling it, and gambling the money away." He told them of his discovery of the room Win ters kept in the barber shop and the source of his money. "That's why I went to see you this af ternoon, Pearson. And" he smiled slightly "that's what's goin' to get you hung." "Why?" Rosy cut in. "Because Pearson told Winters I was snooping around and Win ters decided to kill me before I found out too much and told Pearson." He told them of the note and the killing in the hotel room. The sheriff listened in ently, nodding his satisfaction. "And when I caught this jasper hat was with Winters down in he alley," Quinn finished, "we nad it out. I downed him. Then [ knew Winters could have learn ed about me from only two peo ple—Sam, the barber, and Pear on. And Sam was too scared to alk. So I headed for Pearson's." Rosy looked at him for a long moment, then turned to Pearson. "Go on," "I'll go on," Crowell rapped out, sneering at Pearson. "Let me tell about this Eastern genius. The lake was ready to blow when Dave got home. When Pearson heard about Turner coming home he lost his nerve. He hired Freeman to bushwhack Dave, and make it look like Hammond did it. Then he had Sayres blow the lake out. When Hammond wouldn't sell, even then, he or dered Dorsey Hammond kid naped. Hammond would have to sell the mine to get the money to ransom her, and of course, Pearson's money that I would give Hammond for the mine would go to Sayres and back to me and then to Pearson again." Crowell sneered and smiled evilly at Pearson. "He even ordered the D Bar T spread burned so Mrs. Winters would be frighten ed into selling her half the place." "And I was to be murdered," Dave put in quietly. "Murdered by those whippoorwills of Sayres' after they tortured me into sign ing away my half." "C'mon," the sheriff said stol idly to the two of them.

With the swiftness of a striking snake, Crowell whipped one of Laredo's guns out of the sheriff's belt and pointed it at the sheriff. Crowell backed away a few feet across the bed, his gun nosing steadily at his captors. He was laughing quietly, a lit tle insanely, in the still room. "You'll never make it, Crowell," Rosy said softly. "You'll only get 'one of us before we cut down on ! you." (Concluded Next Week) Efficient Brakeman A green brakeman on the Col orado Midland was making his first trip up Ute Pass. They were going up a very steep grade, and with unusual difficulty the en gineer succeeded in reaching the top. At the station, looking out of his cab, the engineer saw the new brakeman and said with a sigh of relief: "I tell you what, my lad, we had a Job to get up there, didn't we?" "We certainly did," said the brakeman, "and if I hadn't put on the brakes we'd have slipped back." NOTICE __________ 0 By virtue of the power contain ed in a deed of trust executed by C. H.
