Both were bearded.

"Who are you?" she flung at him, as if she had not already heard his name. "Why are you here? What business have you going up there to the Nest?" "I don't like that bear," said David dubiously, as the grizzly made a slow movement toward him. "Tara won't hurt you," she said. "Not unless you put your hands on me, and I scream. I've had him ever since he was a baby and he has never hurt any one yet.

Quest drew a sigh of relief. "That's mine, right enough," he declared. "Now for the men." "Say, I want to tell you something," the Sheriff began dubiously. "These two are real thugs.
