a valley, and every time he brcathcd

And at last when he had run for many
days he stopped to rest, curling his hind

that he slept long time, and while he
was sleeping along came the greatest

banking hours two men, apparently
good old farmers, walked into the
Phoenix national bank, one of them car
rying the sack. They told Cashier Wal
Ter Rhodes that they wanted to make a
deposit, which he, knowing the men to
be citizens of the country, from near
Jacks Creek, accepted. They united
the bag and counted out sum which
looked to be about $1,000, every piece of
which was shining silver "plunll." p"
