DeVere himself, sank back on his pillows. His hand went under the mass of feathers and brought out a packet of papers. At this point a close-up view was taken, showing on the screen the papers in magnified shape, so that the audience could note that they were Civil War documents. It was these that the officer was afraid would fall into the hands of the Confederates, so he kept them ever near him.
"I wish Mr. Pertell would come and bring the camera," said Russ. "He could get a good moving picture of the rescue." "Maybe he will," suggested Paul. There was a little silence, and then Mr. DeVere called, from outside the cave; "Here they come! Now you will soon be rescued! There's help enough to chop away the whole cave!"
"It's of no use, boys!" cried Mr. DeVere. "We must plow a bare strip." "Bring up the horses and plows!" ordered Baldy. A number of these had been held in reserve, out of sight of the camera, and they now came up on the rush. The idea was that neighboring settlers, having sighted the prairie fire, had come to the aid of their friends in the slab cabin.
Three days later the moving picture company returned to New York. "And what are the next plans I mean what sort of pictures are you going to make next?" asked Mr. DeVere of Mr. Pertell. "I haven't quite made up my mind. I'll let you all know a little later," the manager answered. "I hope it isn't any more snow and ice," remarked Mr. Bunn. Mr. Pertell only smiled. Mr.

The only members of the film company who did not present themselves at the breakfast table were Miss Pennington and Miss Dixon.
The officers of the Guard have agreed to that." Considerable preparation was necessary before the big film of the battle could be taken, and to this end it was necessary to have several conferences among the officers and Mr. Pertell and his camera men and assistants, including Mr. DeVere.

DeVere, I think that will be all we will require of you to-day. But come into the office. I have a new play I'm thinking of filming, and I'd like your advice on some of the scenes. Miss Dixon, shall I send for a doctor?" "Oh, no, indeed, I'll be all right!" was her hasty answer. "If you're not, don't be afraid to say so," spoke Mr. Pertell. "I can understudy you "
The girl in the bed raised herself to a sitting position. She looked at the DeVere sisters at the trained nurse. In her eyes now there was not so much brightness as there was weariness and pain.
