When the last of the herd had sidled, under protest, down the long hill to the flat, dusk was pushing the horizon closer upon them, mile by mile. When they crawled sinuously out upon the welcome level, the hill loomed ghostly and black behind them. A mile out, Wooden Shoes rode out of the gloom and met the point. He turned and rode beside Pink. "Yuh'll have t' swing 'em north," he greeted.
"Out here," Gentleman John leered, "the Colt is power. I've got ranches, cattle. I've managed to do well. I need gunmen men who can shoot fast and obey orders. I can see that yo're a better man than Blacksnake. I'm payin' him fifty a day. Take his job, and yuh'll get a hundred."
A dozen of the travelers left their wagons and came forward. This time they seemed glad to see Kid Wolf. "Yuh was right, after all!" one of them cried. "Modoc led us out of the way. We're lost!" "I meant all right," Modoc grumbled. "I did my best must have made a mistake somewhere. I'll find the trail, never worry. And if yuh take my advice, yuh'll drive this four-flusher away from here!
"I'm goin' to try and pick Hardy out o' that gang o' killers, and if I do, I don't care much then what happens." The prisoners had been herded within the corral, and their feet were lashed together. "Yuh'll soon be listenin' to bullets," Caldwell told them. "Yuh'd better pray that yore pals shoot straight and don't hit you by mistake." The Hardy gang had seen them!
There's only one law in this country, and that's six-gun law yuh'll feel it within forty-eight hours!" "Is that so?" said The Kid contemptuously. "I have a couple of lawyahs heah that can talk as fast as any in San Felipe County. The S Bar accepts yo' challenge. Come on, boys. Let's don't waste any mo' time with this."
Eagle Creek rode up and stopped within ten feet of the line-backed cow; she seemed hurt at being held up in this manner, Pink thought. "Yuh'll have t' turn this herd back," Eagle Creek announced bluntly. "Where to?" Pink asked, too stunned to take in the meaning of it. "T' hell, I guess. It's the only place I know of where everybody's welcome." Eagle Creek's tone was not pleasant.
Weary's in Dry Lake. He is drunk. And he is shootin' up the town. If yuh don't want t' believe it, I guess they's no law t' make yuh but if yuh got any sense, and are any friends uh Weary's, yuh'll mosey in and fetch him out here if yuh have t' bring him the way he brung ole Dock that time Patsy took cramps. Go on in and see fer yourselves, darn yuh!
Yuh'll be framed the same as if yuh was a greengoods man or a gopher or a porch-climber. He's a revingeful inemy if ever there was wan." "You mean that Durand " "I'm not namin' names," the officer interrupted doggedly. "I'm tellin' yuh somethin' for your good. Take it or leave it." "Thanks, I'll leave it. This is a free country, and no man livin' can drive me away," answered Clay promptly.
But Torrance's likewise were the wrong size, and the Indian disappeared into Tressa's room. The brakesman entrusted with a rifle in that room paid no attention until a strong hand wrenched it from him. "Yuh'll hurt yerself, sonny, playin' with a real gun. Yuh can have all I shoot to eat." When he returned to the living room, Mahon laid a hand on his shoulder. "My God, who are you?"
"Uh course, if Jack's got some new kind of half-hitch he can put on the river and hold it back yuh'll be all right," fleered Park, with the freedom of an old friend. He had known Mona when she wore dresses to her shoe-tops and her hair in long, brown curls down her back. She wrinkled her nose at him also with the freedom of an old friend and Thurston stirred restlessly in his chair.
