Lansing never got to Grant's," he said. "I'll ride over at once." "Then I'm coming," Jake said shortly. "I'll bring the gun along." Grierson lifted a clenched brown hand. "So am I! If Mr. Lansing's hurt, somebody's got to pay!" Edgar was stirred by something in their looks and voices; George had gained a hold on these men's loyalty which the regular payment of wages could never have given him.
There are decisions to arrive at and arrangements to be made. Mrs. Armstrong has instructed me to question you in regard to these, as the one best acquainted with Mrs. Lansing's affairs and general tastes. We will not trouble Gilbertine.
