That same afternoon he read the last chapter to Blix, and she helped him to prepare the manuscript for expressage.

Jack was a little worried about his father, and made an early start the next morning, carrying the mail and expressage. He made a quick trip and was relieved, on stopping off for a moment at the Watson cabin, to find that his father had passed a fairly comfortable night, and was considerably better.

"What are you going to do about it?" she asked him. "I don't know what can be done about it," he answered, referring himself to the man in the silk cap.
