spoils,' said one of the men.
Cheney and Lonergan were not say |
ing anything but they were doing a
heap Of thinking.
Where was Guthrie all this time. |
why hadn't he been taken with them? |
The mob made them put on their /.
clothes and marched them down
stairs and out ON the street Quickly, |
Cheney glanced over the mob which /.
numbered about 200 lie saw Guthrie, /
and unobseryed by any one sign |
passed between them. II meant one |
word, "soldiers!" The sign consisted /.
merely Of a badly made right hand |
salute. Guthrie understood Cheney
wanted soldiers and there was no time
20 lose Guthrie knew Camp Mac
Pherson was seven miles tu the north
ward Cheney had told him that last
evening But seven miles is long
distance afoot
Tied TO a tree a short distance down
the street was a COW pony saddled and
bridled Guthrie watched his chance
and when the time was opportune nm
hitched the cayusc. vaulted into the
saddle and was gone The mob were
too much occupied with their prisoners
to pay any attention to this one rider.
As soon as Guthrie was out of sight
around the hill he dug spurs into the
pony's nanks and rode like the wind
Never had that pony been so ridden
even In the widest stampede The
seven miles were covered in record
time. and Guthrie dashed into Camp
MACPHERSON hatless and his pony COW
cred with foam. Capt Benson. COM
manding troop NJ. Ninth (coloredD
cavalry. was just at his breakfast. but
when Guthrie was brought to him and
had told his story he yelled:
"Orderly. have the trumpeter sound
Boots and Saddles and be damned
quick about H."
The stirring notes OF the trumpet
rang out full aud clear I'm the morning
air. and in very few minutes some 80
brunette troopers were In line waiting
the word Of command Guthrie had
been given new mount and rode
with Capt Benson.
"Fours right. trot. march'" and
then "Gallop, march!" and away they
went.
Meanwhile. down in Smcdburg Judge
Lynch was holding court In those
