In the meantime, however, a telegram was sent to Charley and he sent one in return, stating he would be glad to meet his parent. "Dave, you can go with me to the Merwell house," said Mr. Endicott the next day. "And you can go, too, Snogger." The three set out, and when within sight of the other ranch home they caught sight of Link Merwell, riding slowly along on his pony.
"But I am sure Dave and his chums are not to blame, Mr. Endicott," said Laura, hastily. "Oh, I am sure of that myself for I know something of Link Merwell and his headstrong temper, a temper he gets largely from his father. If it were not for that temper, I think Mr. Merwell and myself might be on better terms." "We have had trouble over one of the hired men, Hank Snogger," explained Belle.
The youth's aim was good, and the missile landed on bruin's head, all but stunning him. "That's it! Gi give him ano another!" gasped Hank Snogger. He had raised himself up on one elbow and was looking at Dave pleadingly. He was too weak to get to his feet, for his fight with the bear had lasted for some time before Dave had put in an appearance.
There were a number of letters for those at Star Ranch, including two for Dave, from his father and from Ben Basswood. With the epistles in their pockets, Dave and Sid Todd started on the return to the Endicott place. They had to follow, for some distance, the trail taken by Link and Snogger, their road branching off after the bridge over the river was crossed.
