You wasn't gettin' square with anybody, an' you wasn't doin' that girl right by takin' the word of Gomez." "I saw the two of them, her an' Doane, in Hope this morning, walkin' down the street, arm in arm, laughing probably over me," Rathburn replied bitterly. "I've got eyes, and I can put two an' two together. I'm only The Coyote with her, and I'll be The Coyote.
“I would have told you so, Gomez,” Stephen said, “but I thought it better that you should not know, so that if I were seized by the Spaniards you could declare that you were wholly ignorant of my being an Englishman, and believed that I was only a trader travelling on business.”
At any moment Ruy Gomez might open the door, and bid him part from her, and there would be small chance for him of seeing her again. He stood uncertain, with bent head and folded arms, and she watched him, trying to bring herself to touch his hand again and bear his kiss. His loyalty to the King, that was like a sort of madness, stood between him and the words he longed to say.
Sergeant Gomez was summoned, the cibolero sent for, and the revelry went on. But that revelry was soon after brought to a sudden termination, when Sergeant Gomez burst into the saloon, and announced in a loud voice that The prisoner had escaped! A shell dropping into the midst of that company could not have scattered it more completely.
Drawing himself up to his commanding height, he held up his white gloves at arm's length to attract the attention of the courtiers, and in a few moments there was silence. They seemed an hour of torture to Dolores. Ruy Gomez raised his voice. "Grandees! The daughter of Don Diego de Mendoza stands here at my side to prove to you that he is innocent of Don John of Austria's death!"
In one he saw Juanito Pelaez at the side of a woman dressed in white with a transparent veil, in whom he recognized Paulita Gomez. "Paulita!" he ejaculated in surprise, realizing that it was indeed she, in a bridal gown, along with Juanito Pelaez, as though they were just coming from the church. "Poor Isagani!" he murmured, "what can have become of him?"
That such, indeed, was the source from which the Verrazzano letter was derived is susceptible of demonstration; and for that purpose some account of the voyage and discoveries of Gomez and their publication becomes necessary.
He had pursued him so far, asking for it all the way. But the white man had taken no notice whatever of his just claim. Gomez satisfied the coolie with a few coppers, and then went to look for Jasper, whom he knew very well. He found him standing stiffly by a little round table. At the other end of the verandah a few men sitting there had stopped talking, and were looking at him in silence.
They had to remember me, an' I gave them something to remember me by!" "Who do you mean by 'they, Rathburn?" asked the miner. "Sheriff Long an' the others," said Rathburn quickly. "There wasn't a chance for me. Why, I was thinking of giving myself up only this morning. Joe, it ain't in the pictures not after I let Gomez have it.
Gomez, with two thousand men, was known to be in the vicinity, and scouts hurried into his lines. On Monday the old warrior appeared in person at Palo Alto. July 5. A steamer was sighted about midnight by the U. S. S. Hawk, formerly the yacht Hermione, off the north coast of Pinar del Rio, steaming eastward, close inshore.
