For the first time since he had joined us, l
noticed that our guide was troubled lat the
absence of his son, and his anxiety was
shared by all his associates.
We had hardly completed our defence,

as yidettes, a hundred yards in front, dis
charged their carbines TO give the alarm, and
then came running in with anxiety in their
faces. In reply to a question, one Of them
gasped:
"The Apachos are close by, and the woods
are full Of themw
A chorus Of shrill yels, and the whiz Of
arrows lGlling into the stockade, convinced
Us the soldier was right.
Each man, rifle in hand, had taken the place
assigned to him, we heard Pedro calling from
the other side OF the canon which was about
two hundred feet across. and, as it seemed ~
us, entirely impossible for man orhorse.
The boy was right as to the place whore we
could be found, but knowing nothing about
the canon, he was not prepared for it,
THANK the saints :" cried the guide as he
piously crossed his breast, that the boy is
on the other side
