thousand men under Rochamneaa ar-
rived at Newport July tenth and
were Immediately blockaded by the
British as was a like expedition fitting
out at Brest Washington could only
hold to his plan of prudent waiting
On s dear warm day late In Jsly
I7S0 a handsome coach drawn hy four
horses crossed King’s Ferry and tolled
op the Highland road It carried Ben
edict Arnold and hla wife and their
baggage Jack nnd Solomon passed
and recognized them
"What does that moan I wonder?"
Jack queried
"Dun know" Solomon answered
“I’m scared about It" said the young-
er scout ”1 am afraid that this
money seeker has the confidence of
Washington He has been a good
fighting man That goes a long way
with the chief"
Colonel Irons stopped bis horse "I
sm of half a mind to go back" h de-
clared “Why?"
"I didn’t tell the general half that
Reed said to me It was ao bitter and
yet I believe It was true I ought to
have told him Perhaps I ought now
to go and tell hlin"
"There’s time ’nough" said Solomon
-Walt till we git back Sometimes I’ve
thought the chief needed advice but
It’a alius turned out that I was th
one that needed It"
The two horsemen rode on In al
lence It was the middle of the after-
noon ' of that memorable July day
They were hound for the neutral tew
rltnry between the American and Brit-
ish lines Infested hy ’’cowboys’’ from
the South and "skinners" from the
North who were raiding the farms of
the settlers and driving sway their
cattle to be sold to the opposing
armies The two scouts were sent to
learn the farts and report upon them
They parted at a cross-road It was
near sundown when at a beautiful
brook bord-red with apearmrnt and
wild Iris Jack watered and fed Ids
horse nnd sat dow to ent Ms lunch-
eon He was thinking of Arnold and
the new dunger when he dlvtovered
that a man stood Bear him The young
icout tmd failed to hear hts approach
—a circumstance In no way remark-
able since the road was little traveled
snd covered with moss and creeping
herbage He thought not of this how-
erer but only of the fuee and form
of n mnn of mldd’e age The young
man wrote In a letter:
"It was a singularly handsome face
nnoth-shvn and well shaped with
large dark eyes imd a skin very cleao
snd perfect— I had almost said It was

followed
“I renched the Corlles farm far down
In the neutral territory nt ten o'clock
and a little before dawn was with
Corlles and his neighbors In a rough
fight with a band of enttle thieves
In the course of which three men and
a boy were seriously disubled by uiy
pistols We had aalted a herd and
concealed ourselvea In the midst of
It and so were able to shoot from good
cover when the thieves arrived Solo-
mon and I spent four days In the neu
tral territory When we left It a dor
en cattle thieves were In need of re-
pair and three had moved to parts un-
known Save In the southern limit
their courage had been broken
"I had often thought of Nancy the

friendly words saying:
"I hope to know you better for I

On the third of August— the precise
date named by Henry Thornhill Ar-
nold took command of the camp snd
Irons assumed hla new duties The
major general rode with Washington

September the latter t out with

ished him My own horse was worn
by overw-ork snd so I proposed a trude
and offered a sura to boot which he
promptly accepted I came back up

high-headed mare under my saddle
The next night I stopped with one
Reuben Smith near the northern limit
f the neutral territory below Stony
Point Smith hnd prospered by ell

had heard that he was a Tory and
so I wished to know him I found
him a rugged Jovial long haired man
of middle age with a ready ringing
laugh Ills Jokes were spoken In
low tone and followed by quick ster-
torous breathing and roars and ges-
tures of appreciation
"He looked my mare over carefully
before be led her to the stable
Next morning as he stood by her
bead he asked If I would sell her
You couldn't afford to own that
mare’ I said
"I had touched his vanity In fact
I did not realize how much he had
made by Ms overcharging n way
better nbte to own her than I snd
that he proposed to show me
"He offered for her another horse
snd a aum which caused me to tnke
account of Yny situation The money
would be S help to me However I
shook my head He Increased hi of-
