It was mesquite-dotted, cactus-covered desert, but rich soil upon which water acted like magic. There was little grass to an acre, but there were millions of acres. The climate was wonderful. Cattle flourished and ranchers prospered.
Only one reason presented itself to Duane's conjecturing, and it was that with him headed straight on that road his pursuers were satisfied not to force the running. He began to hope and look for a trail or a road turning off to right or left. There was none. A rough, mesquite-dotted and yucca-spired country extended away on either side.
Duane hoped his good fortune would not desert him in this last service to Jennie. Next to the worry of that was realization of his condition. He had gotten up too soon; he had ridden too far and hard, and now he felt that any moment he might fall from his saddle. At last, far ahead over a barren mesquite-dotted stretch of dusty ground, he espied a patch of green and a little flat, red ranch-house.
At the crest of a mesquite-dotted swell of white sand, several hours later, The Kid paused to look over the situation that confronted him. Ahead of him, to the westward, were the buildings of the Goliday ranch. Strangely enough, there was no sign of life around it save for the horses in the large corral and the cattle meandering about the water hole. Was the entire ranch personnel in San Felipe?
