An’ mustangers ain’t above throwin’ a sticky loop when they see a hoss worth it. We ain’t blind on th’ Range." His head swung a little so he was looking at the girl. "You’d better hold that in mind, gal. Double R hosses have come up missin’ lately. It’s easy to run a few prime head south to do some moonlight tradin’ at th’ border. An’ we don’t take kindly to losin’ good stock!"
What the mustangers got to do with this?" "Nothing. Except they can show you the tracks, and with them you can cover a good part of the country in question. There’s been no Apache sign down there, and Running Fox will accompany you—only not so openly as to be noticed." "You think someone may be watchin’ the Stronghold?" Drew asked as he buckled his saddlebags. "I don’t know anything for sure.
This late the grass is beginning to brown, but there are still some sections where stock can be wintered. I want to know more about this. Since both of you are newcomers—" Rennie paused and then added: "Your riding away from here might appear to others that you had quit, were joining up with the mustangers on your own." "To hunt horses?" Drew asked. "Not wild ones." "Sounds like trouble."
Hilario got to his feet with a lurch that made his crippled state only too plain. "Señor, to hunt the wild ones is dangerous. You see me, twisted like a root, no? Not tall and straight as a man should be. This was done by the wild ones—in one small moment when I was not quick enough. Among us—the mustangers—it is often the daughters who are the best riders.
If the mustangers here pick up any branded ones, they’re returned to the owners, if possible, or sold at a yearly auction. By the old Mexican law the hunting season for horses runs from October to March. Foals are old enough then to be branded. Speaking of foals, you left your mare and the filly in town?" "Kells’ll give them stable room till next month. I can bring them out then."
