"It's beyond her carry, Cap'n," said Lincoln, bringing the butt of his piece to the ground, with an expression of reluctant conviction. "Try one more shot. If it fail, we can reserve the other for closer work. Aim high!" This resulted as the two preceding ones; and a voice from the guerilleros was heard exclaiming: "Yankees bobos! mas adelante!"
The young girl appealingly persists, until at length the gallantry of the Kentuckian gives way, and he climbs reluctantly into the saddle. "Now, Lolita!" cries her mistress, "see that your step is sure, or you shan't have the pinons I promised you. Adelante! Nos vamos, senor!"
His stealthy tap at the door was replied to by an impatient "adelante," and he entered the room.

Then, determined to prove by a supreme effort that he was clear-headed and master of his motions, he suddenly drew his sword, hustled the Indians in a line by two and two, pointed out to Aragon his position as rear-guard, and cried with a voice of thunder, "Adelante!"
