"I hope Abe Blower stopped for the day at Black Cat Camp," said Roger to his chums. "I'd like to meet him and confront Link Merwell and Job Haskers, too, if he is with them." "So would I," added Dave and Phil, in a breath. It was more agreeable riding, now that the heat of the day was over. At noon it had been very hot, but none of the boys had complained, although they had perspired freely.
I want to know what you did with my suit-case, and I want to know what you mean by impersonating me." "I I " began Merwell, and then stopped, not knowing how to proceed. "This is er very unfortunate," murmured Job Haskers. He would have retired had there been any place to retire to, which there was not. "Say, are you Roger Morr?" gasped Abe Blower, gazing fixedly at the senator's son. "I am.
"I am not coming I am here!" cried a voice, and Roger stepped from the shadow of a near-by rock. The senator's son faced Link Merwell and Job Haskers, and both stared at him as if they were looking at a ghost, and backed away. "Roger Morr!" faltered Merwell. "Yes, Link. You didn't expect I'd follow you so soon, did you?" cried Roger. "Now, I've got a nice account to settle with you.
"This is an affair between your father and myself," said Mr. Endicott, stiffly. "You will kindly keep out of it." "Huh! I guess I can have my say!" growled Link. "I shall hold you responsible for every head of cattle of mine that is missing," continued Mr. Merwell, with a dark look. "I am willing to pay for every head that Todd drove off that did not belong to us," answered Mr. Endicott.
I I didn't I say it was only done in fun?" "Fun? You won't think it's fun when I git through with you!" "I ahem! I think this whole matter can be settled amicably," put in Job Haskers, with an effort. "I am satisfied now that we made a er a mistake. But, as Merwell states, it was all done in a er a spirit of fun."
As he pointed them at the youth in the balcony, the latter looked down on Roger and those with him. He gave a start and then leaned forward. "It's Merwell, and he sees us!" cried Roger. "What's up?" asked Phil, who was some seats away. "Link Merwell, up in the balcony," answered Dave, and pointed with his finger.
"I have no desire to ruin your son's future. If you will pay for the horses, that is all I ask that and one thing more. I have no desire to live next door to a man who has a son who is a horse-thief. I understand that you have received a good offer for your ranch. My advice is that you sell out." "I will!" snapped Mr. Merwell. "I'll get out just as soon as the title can be passed!
"You tell Harrison that if you dare," answered the messenger, who had delivered the paper. Harrison was known to be a fair and square but high-tempered individual, and one who could shoot, and shoot straight. "Oh, I er I didn't mean er anything against Harrison," answered Felix Merwell, hastily. "I think Endicott is deceiving him, that's all. But it is not his fault.
I fell right over him while I was after a deer I had wounded some time before." "Oh, then you were the hunter we heard shoot," said Todd. "The deer got away, eh?" "Yes, I lost track of the deer when I hit the bear," answered the cowboy from the Merwell ranch. "I'm mighty glad you came up!" he added to Dave. "It's all right, I am glad I did too," answered the youth.
Of course he had on a slouch hat, drawn down over his eyes, and an unusual suit of clothing, but I am pretty certain it was Merwell." "Then Haskers must be here, too. They travel together." Dave heaved a sigh. "It's too bad! I wish they were in China, or at the North Pole!"
