There was an untamed grace about his movements, his gestures, which, together with his absolute unconsciousness of self, pleased and attracted her. "Yuma is a little wild, but she is a fine saddle-pony. I'm really jealous for Boyar's prestige." "I was afraid for you to ride her," said Collie. "She behaves beautifully." "Would you take her as a kind of present from me?" he asked. "Give Yuma to me?

Bedient was entirely unexpected at the hacienda, but a small caravan had come down to meet the steamer and carry back supplies. Coral City was feverish with excitement, although the revolutionists had not yet taken to gunning. This done, Bedient procured a saddle-pony, and started alone up the trails to the hacienda. He reached the great house in the early dusk.

They found Mr. Hardman just emerging from the stable with a saddle-pony when they rode into the corral. At a word from Collins, Hawkes took the precaution to close the corral gate. The fellow held a wary position on the farther side of his horse, the while he ripped out a raucous string of invectives.

Uncle Frank had the irrigation plant to look after; and Aunt Jane was immersed in the endless occupation of housekeeping. Little Jim had his regular light tasks to attend to, and that morning he made short work of them. It was not until noon that Aunt Jane missed him. He had disappeared completely, as had his saddle-pony.
