Dunke was at the head of the gang that held up that train. We got nabbed, me and Jim. Burch got shot in the Catalinas by one of the rangers, and Smith died of fever in Sonora. But Dunke, curse him, he sneaks out and buys the officers off with our plunder. That's what he done let his partners get railroaded through while he sails out slick and easy. But he made one mistake, Mr. Dunke did.
Want to know why it ain't going to do you any good to drop that right hand any closeter to your hip pocket?" Still Dunke said nothing, but the candle-glow that lit his face showed an ugly expression. "Don't you whip that gun out, Joe Dunke. Don't you! 'Cause why? If you do you're a goner." "What do you mean?"
The play with the revolver had hitherto been for the benefit of Johnson, but it now became very real. Dunke jammed the rim close to the other's temple. "I want that letter I wrote you. Quick, by Heaven! No fairy-tales, but the letter!" "I swear, Joe " "The letter, you villain! I know you never let it go out of your possession. Give it up! Quick!"
"The samples I've had were surely right exhilarating," he conceded. "I'm expecting enough difference of opinion to keep life interesting." "Well, then, if you won't be warned you'll just have to take me and risk it." And she slipped her arm into his and held up her lips for the kiss awaiting her. Dunke plowed back through the tunnel in a blind whirl of passion.
"What's that I hear about Struve and Dunke?" asked Neill at once. "Oh, you've heard it. Well, it's true. I judge Dunke was arranging to get him out of the country. Anyhow, Johnson says he took the fellow out to his surrey from the shaft-house of the Mal Pais under his gun. A moment later the engineer heard a shot and ran out. Dunke lay in the road dead, with a knife through his heart.
There was a slight smile on his face, which did not abate when he nodded to Dunke amiably. "You?" exclaimed the mine-owner angrily. "Why, yes me. Hope we didn't inconvenience you, seh, by postponing the coyote's journey to Kingdom Come. My friend had to take a hand because he is a ranger, and I sat in to oblige him. No hard feelings, I hope." "Did you Are you all safe?" Margaret asked.
