He had flared up because the girl could not let him alone about his friendship for Soapy Stone. In his heart the boy knew he was wrong, that he was moving fast in the wrong direction. But his pride would neither let him confess it or go back on his word to the men with whom he had been living. About noon the next day they reached Saguache.
I was awakened the next morning by the sound of a hammer. Carson was pulverizing the jug handle. After a hasty breakfast, he buckled on his cartridge belt with a Colt 44-six shooter in his holster, and was soon wading through the snow-drifts down the trail towards Saguache. I watched him through the window until he was lost to view.
He had seen the "personal" warning in both the morning and the afternoon papers. He guessed that the presence of the ranger Bucky O'Connor in Saguache was not a chance. The law was closing in on him. Somehow Cullison must be made to come through with a relinquishment and a pledge not to prosecute. The only other way out would be to let Blackwell wreak his hate on the former sheriff.
Beats all how far a little excitement goes in this town," he answered, embarrassed. Her father and Maloney entered the room. Cullison wrung his hand. "Glad to see you, boy. You're in luck that convict did not shoot you up while he had the chance. Saguache is sure buzzing this mo'ning with the way you stood up to him. That little play of yours will help with the jury in September."
This was what Maloney read: ........................................ .......................................... luck............................prisoner the notorious Jack Foster of Hermosilla ..............Jack........of.He.......a ........R.........t............s.now ................Saguache................. locked up pending a disposition of his case. .......succeeded in surprising him...... ............................................ .............................
He took the money to the Wells Fargo Express company's office and expressed it to his wife in Saguache. Rayder was sleeping when he returned. He placed the check book in its accustomed place in the desk, destroyed all evidence of the night's debauch and left a note on the desk saying: "My dear Rayder, I have been suddenly called home by the illness of my wife.
Will you come to the office for them?" Fifteen minutes later Curly knew that Mrs. Wylie was the divorced wife of Lute Blackwell. She had come to Saguache from the mountains several years before. Soon after there had been an inconspicuous notice in the Sentinel to the effect that Cora Blackwell was suing for divorce from Lute Blackwell, then a prisoner in the penitentiary at Yuma.
He can't stay in Saguache with that man threatening to kill him on sight." "Don't worry about me, Miss Kate;" and Curly looked at her and blushed. Her father smiled grimly. "No, I wouldn't, Kate. He isn't going to be troubled by that wolf just now." "Doesn't stand to reason he'd spoil all his plans just to bump me off." "But he might. He forgot all about his plans this morning.
Come to Saguache as soon as you can make it convenient. Amos." When Rayder awoke it was four o'clock in the afternoon. His head was in a whirl and every muscle was twitching. He called Charley and sent for a doctor. The doctor saw the trouble at a glance. He called a hack and accompanied Rayder to his home. "This will never do, Mr. Rayder.
"A pack of lees, lassie." His Scotch idiom and accent had succumbed to thirty years on the plains, but when he became excited it rose triumphant through the acquired speech of the Southwest. "Then is he there in Saguache, I mean." "No-o. He's not in town." "Where is he?" "Hoots! He'll just have gone somewhere on business." He did not bluff well.
