All night long, at intervals, he tended the sick man, and Grant's eyes followed him with an expression that brought a fierce pain to Cantwell's throat. "You're mighty good after the rotten way I acted," the former whispered once. And Johnny's big hand trembled so that he spilled the broth. His voice was low and tender as he inquired, "Are you resting easier now?" The other nodded.
Of course the older man objected, and for a time they had a good-natured rivalry as to who should work and who should rest only it was not quite so good-natured on Cantwell's part as he made it appear. Mort broke out in friendly irritation one day: "Don't try to do everything, Johnny. Remember I'm no cripple." "Humph! You proved that. I guess it's up to me to do your work."
