soon broad-breasted, well-set-up

hide" 1t was a Mexican who spoke.
The bargain was quickly clinched, as
money in cattle town runs freer
than water. by the cashing OF twenty
five shining silver dollars in the hand
of a stakeholder.
The Mexican secured his saddle and
drew the cinch up without the slight

like a panther sprung at the Mexican

He was in the act Of repeating hi
deadly work when shot rang ou
and the infuriated beast dropped lik'
