It stood motionless, blinking its eyes, the very mark I desired. I pointed to it with my right hand, flung forward my pistol, and fired. It rolled over as dead as stone, and Faulkner walked to pick it up. He put back my pistols in the box, and we turned to seek the horses.... Then Grey came up to me.
