At last, one Fitzgerald appeared, followed by Ivey, Sanson, Dennis, Bourke, two Macnamaras, and some others. These men were immediately sent over to England; and though they possessed neither character sufficient to gain belief even for truth, nor sense to invent a credible falsehood, they were caressed, rewarded, supported, and recommended by the earl of Shaftesbury.
"That's so, Isa; that's so," agreed Kiddie. "Say, Sheriff," interposed Rube; "have you gotten any news ter tell us about that Sanson T. Wrangler business that brought you t' our camp t' get Kiddie's advice?" "No." The sheriff shook his head. "No, it all turned out just as Kiddie said, in every particular." "And Nick Undrell had nothin' whatever to do with it?" questioned Kiddie.
"What makes ye think it was around here she done the deed?" the captain asked. "Because her folks have their summer house a short distance below the wharf, and the boat which was found drifting in South Bay belongs to Bill Sanson up on the hill. Aren't they reasons enough?" "It does look reasonable," the captain acknowledged. "I s'pose her pa an' ma are about crazy over her disappearance.
Have you arrested him?" "Nick's vamoosed," resumed the sheriff; "an' that goes against him. He was sure in Laramie Saturday night even in Brierley's saloon. He knew about Sanson T. Wrangler's pile o' money bein' fixed up in the safe. He wasn't anyways friendly disposed to Sanson T. neither. Thar's a heap of evidence pointin' straight to Nick Undrell.

Eric Sanson and Abel Behenna were face to face and none knew of the meeting save themselves; and God. On the instant a wave of passion swept through Eric's heart. All his hopes were shattered, and with the hatred of Cain his eyes looked out. He saw in the instant of recognition the joy in Abel's face that his was the hand to succour him, and this intensified his hate.
On such an occasion hours are centuries, and many things may happen in a century. Do not allow him to think he is reprieved; prepare the man for execution if necessary; and if nothing comes of that, give Sanson the warrant at half-past nine. Let him wait!"
Nick Undrell's different." "What about Nick Undrell?" Kiddie asked. "That fetches me up against the point," returned Isa. "That's the business brought me on your trail. But before we drag in Nick, I'll start at the beginnin'. I don't doubt you remember the name of Sanson T. Wrangler." "Yes," Kiddie affirmed, "he kept a prosperous general store in Laramie.
