I HOL4-YWpq) Lewis, overjoyed a5>oe was to see his brother, was supremely dismayed. The truth swept over him in an instant. Realizing they were being watcheii, that their pwsitions as spies was guessed by Arrelsford, Lewis felt the importance of immediate misquerading. Thus, when Henry stepped forward to clutch his brother in his arms, Lewis met him, but not in the spirit of a brother. Realizing that the onlookers must be deceived, he met Henry in a grapple, gun drawn. .\nd as he clutched him about the throat and swung him to and fro, he muttered the truth in the young man's ear. "Were trapped 1" he whispered. "They are watching us. Pretend to fight." Quick-witted, the younscr brother immediately realized the situation, the need lor deception. And while Arrelsford and Edith stood on the outside looking in, Henr>' whispered into the ear of his brother: "Shoot me, Lewis," he implored. "Shoot mc in the leg. Its the only way to throw them off the track. Shoot me!" LewB hesitated. The risk was great. But while he hesitated, Henry got his fingers on the hand that held the pistol, twisted it around and pressed the trigger. He collapsed to the floor, with Lewis swaying over him, dazed and bewildered, the smoking pistol in his tense fingers. For Henn.' had more than negotiated a wound in the leg. He was mortally wounded. Lewis decided. «-atching him writhine on the floor. In that instant, .Arrelsford and his men flung open ihc door and rushed in. .Arrelsford, rather puzzled by the sudden turn in events, now stared at the stiffening figure on the floor. "He escap>ed from Libby." he said lamely. "Were after him." "WeU," said Lewis grimly. "There he k." .\nd as Arrelsford's men lifted the dead Northerner, to carry him off. Lewis managed to press the cold hand once before he was gone forever. A few moments later, when the defeated Airebford and his men had gone. Lewis faced the girl he loved. .\t her side was the aide de camp, bearing his commission that was to place him at the head of the tcletrrapb office. Head bowed in sorrow. Lewis went grimly on to hb assignment, now to carr>' on. in bitter earnest, the work for which his brother had died. Once there, at the earliest opportunity be manaeed to clear the room, and prepared to compose the fake message for whose effect the atUcking forces were awaiting. Hastily writing down, in code, the message that was to cause the withdrawal of Confederate forces from Cemeter> Hill. Henr>' then clipped off of another message the original signature of the Secretary of War. This he pasted carefully on his forgery. Lewis did not realize that his attempts at pri\-acy had been fruitles. For. from a biddra point. Benton .Arrelsford, not yet con\Tnced that Lewis was not a spy, was watching his operation. .And when he observed his action, his smile widened and something more than mere official elation fiUcd hb dark heart. Lewis reached across the desk and laid hb hand on the s«ndint; key, ready to send off the fatal message that was holding back a great invadins army.
