The men laughed as he said this, as if they thought it a very good joke; and Pedro and I sat up and rubbed our eyes.

"I killed him on the top of Point o' Rocks after an even break." "Duke has cashed in. Game to the last. Wouldn't say a word to implicate his pals. But Tom has confessed everything. The boys slipped a noose over his head, and he came through right away. "Says he and Duke and Irwin helped Healy rob the Noches Bank and do a lot of other deviltry. It was just like Keller figured.
