4 4 Kee and Bud Lane entered an
arroyo to rest their mounts and hold
council as to their future movements.
During the flight both had been silent.
Mckee was busy revolving plans for
escape in his mind, and Bud was
brooding over the tragic ending of the
lawless adventure into which he had
been led by his companion.
When Mckee callously Informed him
that the agent had been killed in the
encounter Bud was too Mortified to
speak. A dry sob arose in his throat
at the thought of his old friend lying
dead all alone in the station. His
first impulse was to turn back to Flor
ence and surrender himself to the
sheriff. Had this entailed the pun
ishment of himself alone he would
have done so, but he still retained q
blind loyalty in his associate and prin-
cipal in the crime Murder it seemed,

such actions. 1t appeared to be en-
tirely justified in his code. So Bud
followed in dull silence the masterful
man who had involved him in the fear

When they dismounted, however,
his pent-up emotion burst forth.
''You said there would be no killing

across his forehead as if to wipe out
the memory of the t.N.le.

gun fer?" grumbled Mckee petulant.

Bud threw himself YEARLY on the
ground.
I'D give the rest of my life to undo
today's work." he groaned, speaking
more to himself than to his compan-
ion.
Mckee heard him. His anger began
to rise If Bud weakened detection
was certain. Flight back to Texas
must be started without delay. If he
could strengthen the will of the boy
