HE did. He struck at me with his

Squire Balaam removed his spec

Its the opinion OF this here cot
that the whole question OF assault
rests on whether Bob Yaney saw the
order. Bob Yancy swears he didn't
see 1t, while Dave BIount swears he
showed it to him. If Bob Yancy didn't
know OF the existence OF the order ne
was clearly actin on the idea that
Blount was stealth his nevvy, and he
done what any one would have done
under the circumstances. II, on the
other hand, he knowed OF this order

OF assault, but he was guilty OF re-

and started down the sandy road at q

an impending tragedy leaped up with
Ia him, and the miles were many
that lay between him and the Hin.
As he breasted the slope he came
within sight OF a little group in his

itself into the women and children OF

cut him OF at Or Road forks!"
Yancy breathed a sigh OF relief. A
rifle was placed in Yancy's hands,.

and turning away he struck OH

of twenty minutes brought him to the

He had not long to wait, for pres

Hannibal instantly avaiNga himself
OF the invitation. At tbs same mo

Seeing that the boy had reached the
