We asked him if he had any friends at this ranch whom he wished to see. This he denied. When we informed him that by special request a lady wished to bid him farewell, he lost some of his bluster and bravado.
We were willing to make any concession to get him, so this request was readily granted. "The deserted condition of the ranchito where the girl lived was to our advantage as well as his.

We reached a small ranchito, where we spent an hour changing horses, had coffee and a rather light lunch. "Before leaving I noticed a Pinto horse hitched to a tree some distance in the rear of the house, and as we were expecting to buy a number of horses, I walked back and looked this one carefully over. He was very peculiarly color-marked in the mane.
