On the road, Rincon said to his new acquaintance, "Does your worship happen to be a Thief?" "Yes," replied the lad, "I have that honour, for the service of God and of all good people; but I cannot boast of being among the most distinguished, since I am as yet but in the year of my novitiate."

Dubrosc was carried back into the rancho, apparently lifeless. We were still wondering how our comrade had untied himself, when one of the guerilleros, lifting a piece of the thong, exclaimed: "Carajo! ha cortado el briboncito!" It was with us a moment of fearful suspense. We expected to see poor Jack sacrificed instantly. We watched the man with intense emotion, as he ran to and fro.
"Without doubt," admitted Cortado; "but now, since our fate has decided that we are to enter this brotherhood, will your worship be pleased to step out a little, for I am dying to behold this Señor Monipodio, of whose virtues you relate such fine things."
