interviewed him through the window with regard
to two toughs that had come into town from Ell
Paso on an occasion when all our best men was
away at Sweetwater for trial that was on there.
And Green let on that he reckOned 1t would do the
town good to be shook out of its calm a bit and
that he would attend to the matter in the
ing. And next morning he triumphed over my
mournful prognostiCations because the two tOughS
dead, havin come to words as to whether
Painted Rock was poorer town IN spirit than
some other towns they'd been playin up IN, which
was very trying to hear, but | was disabled with
stab in my right arm. And they actu'lly shot each
other and the argument undecided.
But, as l was sayn, Green nominated Ginger
as his successor, and there a party for him,
the women ben keen on him, | must say. But
his rival who was named Keeley had large fol-
own likewise, and if it had come to votes it would
have been squeak to which out
top. However, there real vOtin on 1t,
and it through there wasn't For when
poor old Green done up at San Anton by Ben
Thompson, that met his fate in 81 at the hands
of King Fisher and Mccoy, me and Ginger pooled
brains, to speak, and it that got him
in You Ginger was from M1zzOura, and keeey
Texas to the finger-tips, and that ag'in'
Ginger. And the women made the jealous
mebbe. Anyhow, | said to Ginger 1T
matter that shouldn't come to vOtin'.
How'll we avoid it?' asked Ginger.
'Easv' said |; for YOU see | knew the town and
its nature better than he did And in the silent
hours of the early mOrnin I'd evolved plan to
get him in. l wanted him. for keelev was too
much in with the deadly new respectable element
that down gamblers. The Gospel sharp
for him, and out of four law-sharps three said
keeley every time
"And therefore | elaborated nv scheme to Gin
ger, and he said whatever happened he'd stand by
as long | played a straight game. He knew
me. And | arranged little private gatherin' of
them that favored Ginger in place of Green and |
put the cards face up on the table that would win
the game. And then started payin'. Did we

a fine man, and a real son o. Texas and as hard as

The responsibility lies on young Gedge and Ginger.
Il think | was tellin' you day two back how
Ginger came here and in what dramatic sort he lit
among us like hawk on a June-bug.''
You We're" | said And | went to say that
there two rocking chairs vacant the veranda,
and that | trusted he would drink John Collins
with and go with the tale then and there.
''Well don't mind if | do" said Pillsbury.
He took drink and resumed the history. "As
| let on he fair bust up, that first appearance
of his and it took him sometime knit up his
arm and get strong again. And all that time he
STAYED in old Green's house; and Green loved him,
fairly loved him. in spite of the glass in him which
worked out for weeks afterward. 1t appeared,
so Green said, that Ginger he'd he'd severe trouble
girl Al1ZZOura who loved some other chap
better and whether Ginger killed him not L
can't say. Green didn't know but he Opned that
the intrusive lover not calculated to shine
professional beauty after Ginger had got through
with him, and he said Ginger should be a son him.
which curious, for Green he'd a son, and by
means much of father to him save in the
matter of cOwhdin' the boy, which led to young
Green shiftin' camp and goin to Arizona.
And when Ginger fit he around with
old Green and jned in his business, and grew very
popular by reason of his ways. | reckon he
squashed the melancholy that rose up in him at
the thought of the MizzOura GAL for you may hev

Now the truth is and would have stated it TO
Green himself, that he was not the highest and
most shining sort of marshal himself. He was too
easy with everybody, and he loved sleep. \ city
marshal in Texas should be awake eighteen hours
out of twenty-four, and often twenty-four, takn'
what rest he when peace blooms rarely But
Green liked the blankets, and it took powerful
deputatlon to get him out of EN-. | went around
to his shack one night no later than o'clock and
