I informed him of what I had done and assured him that I would hold all the troops there that it was possible for me to hold, and that up to that time none had gone.

A dozen miles north of the Wekusko camp he swung at right angles to the west, traveled fifteen miles, then cut a straight course south. It was three days later before he showed up at Le Pas, and learned that no one had seen or heard of Thorpe and his wife. Two days later he walked into MacGregor's office. The inspector fairly leaped from his chair to greet him. "You got them, Steele!" he cried.
