Tisco came out, bowing most affably to the young Americans. "You look as though you had been walking, too," suggested Tom, noting Tisco's high-topped shoes. "I went with Don Luis," replied the secretary. "Oh, by the way, Senor Hazelton, I believe some of your property has come into my possession. This is yours, is it not?"
Tisco's purpose in being present was to use his keen, snapping eyes in covertly studying the faces of the two Americans. "I have called to say," declared Don Luis, coming promptly to the point, "that within three days a party of American visitors will be here. They come with a view to buying the mine, and I shall sell it to them at a very handsome profit.
Don Luis gave another shrug of his shoulders. "You would be held incommunicado, Senor Reade, until the judges were ready to try you." "And that might be years off," Tom muttered. Don Luis beamed delightedly, while a thin smile curled on Dr. Tisco's lips. "You are beginning, senor, to get some grasp of Mexican law," laughed Montez.
Don Luis glanced covertly at his secretary, with a look that conveyed: "If these young Gringos have all the money they want, and more, then we may find it difficult to appeal to their avarice." Dr. Tisco's return glance as much as said: "I am all the more certain that we shall find them difficult." Don Luis commented to the two young men on the country through which they were passing.
