Oh, why didn't I think of it before?" "But Mr. Collins wore a beard; the other man did not," objected Miss Elting. "I can't help it. They were one and the same. Does that help you any, Mr. Grubb?" The guide shook his head. "Tell them all about it when you get back, Jim. The sheriff'll run the fellow down. I shouldn't be surprised if the sheriff came out here. You tell him where we are going.
Sillett thrust his weapon into his pocket, and came close to the speaker, eyeing him attentively. An impartial observer might have pronounced the younger man to be the defaulter. "You'll help me eh? How?" "I can get you safe into Mexico." "Can you?" "At a word from me the sheriff'll be huntin' somewheres else. See?" "I see." "Don't think you'll squeeze through without me.
I figure we'd better send for the sheriff to come over from Woodville and take the prisoner back there. One of you gents can slide over there today, and the sheriff'll be here tomorrow, mostlike." "But who'll take charge of Gaspar?" "Who? Why me, of course! Unless somebody else would like the job more? I'll keep him right here in the Bent cabin."
"No use, boys," said he, "might as well go back, There ain't no fears but what the sheriff'll be smart enough to do 'em yet, if he's alive, an' if he's dead we can't help him any." "If he's dead," remarked Bill Braymer, "an' there's any pay due him, I hope part of it'll come for these horses. Mine's dead, an' Pete's might as well be." "Well," said Jim, "I'll go on to town.
Because he minded his own business and staid in the house when he heard shooting, he said. "Come on, boys!" shouted Bill Braymer, giving his panting horse a touch with his raw-hide whip; "perhaps, the sheriff's needin' help this minute. An' there's generally rewards when counterfeiters are captured mebbe sheriff'll give us a share." The whole quartet galloped rapidly off.
If you're innocent the sheriff'll let you off to-morrer; but, innocent or guilty, by Gosh, you're comin' with us to-night. Hold up yer hands! Quick!" Ransom and Smoky held up their hands. "Search 'em," commanded the 'Piker. This was done effectively. A Derringer doesn't take up much room in a man's pocket, but it has been known to turn the tables upon larger weapons.
