And in these days King Don Alfonso fought at Consuegra with King Abenalfange of Denia, and in this battle the Christians were defeated, and Diego Rodriguez, the son of my Cid, was slain. Greatly was his death lamented by the Christians, for he was a youth of great hope, and one who was beginning to tread in the steps of his father.
That young engineer they've got down there has spudded in the Consuegra, that you passed up, and it's producing seven hundred and fifty barrels a day as a starter." Wiley thrust out his jaw. "That's all right. I know Larkin's man; Kearn Thode, his name is. I met him before out in Oklahoma, and I've no use for him.

We'll have to do some quick work " Wiley laughed again. "No fear of trouble from Thode. I beat him to it and spiked his guns at the same time.

And the Cid vowed anew to serve him, but his heart was heavy for the death of his only son in the siege of Consuegra.
