man caught her in a ruthless grip.
Fortunately she wore no trailing skirt
and her feet were out of the stirrups.
AS It was. the divided garment she
wore was torn into ribbons on the
horns and one boot was dragged off.
1t was well that she had fallen to

him to keep the saddle and drag the

CHAPTER Ill.


nIcHARD WILLIAMS, a young
man of twenty-four. gradu
A ate of the University of Tex
as, had spent the two years
since he had won his sheepskin on a
range of his own. which had come to
him through his mother. Foolish diff
ferences had arisen between him and
his father, In which the young man
was generally in the wrong. A recon-
Citation had been effected. however, a
short time before the arrival of Mr..
Renwyck. and Richard had combined
his cattle with some of his fathers.
1t was this joint herd which had near
ly ended the life of Miss Renwyck
The day after the departure of ia
cob Renwyck and the young lady Rich
ard Williams had saved in so daring
and romantic a manner the young man
was summoned to the ranch by a mes
sage from his father. Recognizing that
1t was war to the knife between him
and his former partner, the Texan laid
his plans to bring to his feet the
schemers of New York. 1t was the
west against the east. and no mercy
was TO be shown on either side.
Richards experience had been on the
practical side of the business. He was
his fathers son. however. and Bill Will
liams had every confidence that he
could be safely intrusted to look after
his fathers interests in New York. He
explained the details of his operations
carefully to the boy. provided him
told him to hustle east and get In com
munication with firm of brokers with
whom his father already had dealt,
who were to advise with Richard with
regard to whatever action was re-
quired.

man rides down an obstacle. but he
knew that such a step would be fatal.
The mill must be broken. 1t must be
unwound. The first man swung his
pony In toward the outer edge and
raced with it. seeking an opening near
the woman. to whom he cried words
of encouragement With the savage
quirt at his wrist he struck the cattle
ahead of him again and again. The
first blows had no effect. but the repe-
tition at last met with response. They
swerved slightly. and he forced his
horse into the outer edge. Having eff
fected this entrance, he knew that he
had made a sufficient beginning to en-
able him in the end to loosen the tight
ened ring. He was just a little III
front of the girl. and back of him the
other man was nobly seconding his eff
