"I never thought of that," she admitted. "But there must be some honest men in the bunch." "It takes a whole lot to convince an honest man when he's part of a posse," Racey declared, reaching for the bran sack.
"Be careful, you know, about the ropes after the fourth Well, and what do you want, I wonder!"
