f1uttering just ahead. and his leaders
stopped with their breasts against a rope
stretched across the road. A handker.
chief was futtering from the center Of the

then somebody standing By tree at the
side OF the road told him to throw down
the box He glanced toward the person
who spoke and saw a masked man point

the box, the masked man cut the rope and
told him to drive on. and the stage went
on its way The next day the officers
