It was all so real that Don expected to see the scoundrel step out into the open, followed by his two companions. And this did happen a few minutes later. Mike Bannock, armed with a heavy club, and followed by his two brothers in crime, crept out.
After another ineffectual shot at Buddy, he whipped his horse down the ridge, and made for Bannock creek. Buddy at thirteen knew more of the wiles of Indians than does the hardiest Indian fighter on the screen to-day. Father had warned him never to chase an Indian into cover, where others would probably be waiting for him.
"I begin to think we're going to have a good trip this time." "Grub pile!" sang out Moise about this time. A moment later they were all sitting on the ground at the side of the breakfast fire, eating of the fried bacon, bannock, and tea which Moise had prepared. "To-day, Moise, she'll get feesh," said Moise, after a time. "Also maybe the duck.
Breakfast followed; and such a breakfast! They both helped the one-armed cook. There was bannock light and snowy; bacon fried crisp "breakfast" bacon, very different in the North from plain "bacon"; and fried sardines delectable morsels! and coffee, and jam. All the delicious things Garth and Natalie had dreamed of paled beside this homely reality.
"Hullo, sawbones!" "What are you going to do this afternoon?" "Nothing." "Don't you want to ride with me?" "Maybe. Where?" "To Bannock Bars." "What for?" "To take some pills to Mrs. Richardson." "Not much. Mrs. Richardson is frabjous and a gossip." "What if she is? You needn't talk to her." But Allyn shook his head. "Not if I know myself.
At this time a stage ran from here to Bannock and from Bannock to Boise and from Boise to Salt Lake City, and the news was coming in every day of both stage and train robberies along this line, and it actually got so bad that it was not at all safe for a man to step outside of his own door after dark, if it was known that he had any money. These robbers were known in those days as "road agents."
Bridger produced a ham of venison, some beans, a bannock and some coffee not to mention his two bottles of fiery fluid before any word was passed regarding future plans or past events. "Come here, Jim," said Jackson after a time, tin cup in hand. The other followed him, likewise equipped. "Heft this pannier, Jim." "Uh-huh? Well, what of hit? What's inter hit?" "Not much, Jim.
King George and Frederick North might have learned some fundamental principles of government, had they been present. Like sitting in heavenly places were the mornings and evenings to Roger Stanley in the Walden home, where he passed the first and the last two weeks of the term. The food upon the table was appetizing; deft hands had prepared the bannock Rachel's hands.
"If Mike Bannock says they're fine spots, don't you believe him; they're bad 'uns." "Then let's go and select a place for ourselves," cried Don. "Lor! I do wonder at you, Mas' Don, wantin' to leave such a mother as you've got, and asking me to leave my wife. Why, what would they do?" "I don't know," said Don, sadly. "They care very little for us now. You can do as you like; I shall go."
Then he made the woods ring with a triumphant "Eureka!" for Bob lay safe upon the bridge! Bannock barked for joy also, and struggled up to scamper back to his master. "Just in the nick of time! You've saved my life!" muttered Bob gratefully, when he recovered a little of his strength after a short rest. Alf's reply was characteristic.
