"Most of the first an' some of the last have struck the Tonto. The sheepmen have now got distributin' points for wool an' sheep at Maricopa an' Phoenix. They're shore waxin' strong an' bold." "Ahuh! ... An' what's likely to come of this mess?" queried Jean. "Ask your dad," replied Blaisdell. "I will. But I reckon I'd be obliged for your opinion."
"But tell me," said I, addressing Seguin, "who is the Indian? he who performed the wild feat of shooting the " "Ah! El Sol; he is a Coco." "A Coco?" "Yes; of the Maricopa tribe." "But that makes me no wiser than before. I knew that much already." "You knew it? Who told you?" "I heard old Rube mention the fact to his comrade Garey." "Ay, true; he should know him." Seguin remained silent.
"Let us first take it out," replied the Maricopa, coming up; "we shall lose no time by that." The arrow was sticking through my forearm. The barb had pierced through the flesh, until about half of the shaft appeared on the opposite side. El Sol caught the feather end in both his hands, and snapped it at the lapping. He then took hold of the barb and drew it gently out of the wound.
Presently Saint Vrain joined me, and I was assured that the wound was not mortal. The Maricopa would live. The battle was now ended. The warriors who survived had fled to the forest. Shots were heard only at intervals; an occasional shout, the shriek of some savage discovered lurking among the walls.
"No, we make for the pass first; that's the quickest way to reach the signal-station, then we learn where to strike for the Indians.

Upon a high roof two men were engaged in combat fierce and deadly. Their brilliant dresses had attracted me, and I soon recognised the combatants. They were Dacoma and the Maricopa! The Navajo fought with a spear, and I saw that the other held his rifle clubbed and empty. When my eye first rested upon them, the latter had just parried a thrust, and was aiming a blow at his antagonist.
Send those men up here, and let's see what they want." The two mates stood back, and the disfigured Sheriff of Maricopa and the almost unrecognizable mounted policeman climbed the poop steps and faced the Captain in the weather alley. They were game still full of fight, and in no way abashed by the autocrat of the ship.
Leaving El Tovar, the road quickly ascends El Tovar Hill, giving a view of the San Francisco Peaks and neighboring mountains standing high above the Tusayan Forest, and purple colored with the haze of seventy-five miles of distance. Then, down into Coconino Wash, up Tusayan Hill, past Maricopa Point, and Hopi Point, long noted for its unrivaled sunset view, is reached.
