beneath his feet, knew that there was
but few inches slack in the rope, and
that false movement and slight
change in equilibrium meant strangula-
ton and death.
His card playing proclivities stood
him in good stead. He was a good
enough poker player to know that the
game consisted pure and simple of rela-
tive calculation of percentages and OPP
portunities. He who takes his money
upon the turn or chances of cards soon
learns one lessOn-to patiently hide his
time.
The last words of the leader of the
party kept constantly recurring to him.
1t was with no religious sentiment that
he thought of possible deliverance, but
with the conviction that he deserved
better than death like this.
Seemingly in sympathy with his situa-
ton and his mood, the twilight hours
now fast approaching brought warning
of storm. He noticed this with pleas
ure, for both hunger and thirst had as
serted themselves. He awaited the soft,
cooling rain which he saw approaching
up over the mountains with feeling of
relief. The leaves had fallen off the
tree, winter was so near at hand, and he
turned his face to the sky to catch the
fast falling drops upon his face and
tongue. The moisture refreshed him,
and he felt his courage revive and hope
once more spring up within his breast.
The long roll of distant thunder and the
vivid bursts of lightning did not even
awe him. 1t seemed like a great battle,
and he pictured himself in the thick of
the fight. If he only had that chance!
How welcome it would be, and how
happily he could await the bullet that
would send him into the great unknown,
and the news be flashed home by the
