It waa not yet 8 o'clock, and he had ample time to reach tbe village before tbs appointed hour. The most direct way was down the railroad track, and he hurriedly tripped over the tics, aa happy aa a b6y could well be. Within a mile of the village tbe track mad* a sharp turn to the right and entered what was known as lleuway's cut. where tbe roadbed bad Iweu blasted through solid rock for a number of rods.

There was not time enough to go on to tbe village and hare some one scut to flag least it would he a tremendous risk to do so. The first bouse t«ck. up the track, waa a full mile away, and to go lltrre aud leave word to stop the train would also make him late at the store. For a moment be hesitated.
