Aas story.
"Aloag toward the LIST u last July.
I took . hike out into the Indian coun-
try to buy . fev hsed o cattle. 4
traAe considerable With ths half
breeds around Grow creek and Lower
Brule. They're always for sellia' and
II It comes to . sho~ down never haG-
gis much about the lucre-it all goes
ior saake juice anyway. Well, l landed
ct JoAa yellow Wolfs shanty along
about aooa and found there Vas 9th
ers ahead Of me. yellow Wolf always
Was . popular cuss There Was Char.
Ne Nishtbird. Pete Monroe, Jesse Big
Cloud and tWo or three others whose
mugs l did not happen to be onto,
After our feed. we all strolled out To
tAe corral. Yellow Wolf said he had
bought Q likely little bunch from some
EaSlisA Teller Who Vas skipping the
oouotry-starved out and honesick-
a.l hadn't put 'em - the range yet
Ne said J X vas the English Teller &
brad. l atAa't suspicion no under.

The chinks OF the two car loads he was
shippin', so I up and lets him have
'em. I showed him this here bill-o'
sale from Yellow Wolf anA made him
OHt one from me, and that was all
there Was to it. He rode to Velpen
and | turned on my trail"
II was . straight story. and appar
emily damaging for the prosecution. II
corrObOrated the attestations Of other
witnesses-many others. 1t had q
plausible ring to 1t. Two bills of sale
radiated atmospheric legality. II there
had been dirty work 1t must have orig
inted with that renegade half f-breed
Yellow Wolf And Yellow Wolf was
dead. He had died while serving q
term in the penitentiary for cattle
rustling. Uncle Sam himself had set
the seal upon him-and now he was
dead. This insinuated charge he
could not answer. The finality of IL
seemed to set its stamp upon the pco
pie gathered there-upon the IL good
men and true. as well as upon others
yellow Wolf was dead. George Viii
liston was dead. Their secrets had
died with them. An inscrutable fate
had lowered the veil. Who could
pierce it, One might believe, but who
could know? And the Law required
knowledge.
We will call Charlie Nightbird,'
said Small, complacently.
There was a little waiting silence
4 breathless, palpitating silence.

eyes over the packed. intent faces
