"The gallows," laconically answered Stebbins. "Devils an' damnation!" This emphatic rejoinder was accompanied with a furious grinding of teeth, but with a certain recoiling as if the angry spirit of the giant could still be stayed by such a menace. "It's no use swearing about it, Holt," continued the Mormon, after a certain time had passed in silence. "My mind's made up the girl must go with me.

From the creation of his mind's eye, as he doubtlessly, half-conscious of his weakness, designated the familiar form, he glanced at the sentinel and shook as though abruptly conscious of his situation. Across the valley the soldiers showed signs of bestirring themselves, the smoke of many fires hovering earthward beneath the mist.

He is well served by his mind and ear if he can win past all such traps and ambuscades, robbed of only a little of his treasure, indemnified by the careless generosity of his spoilers, and still singing.
