TEAN noticed the bitterness in Woods voice,
and her own tones grew more tender,
when she asked, 'but it was accidental, of
course, Wood?"
Not accidental as far as the shooting was con-
cerned. However, l did not know at the time
it a woman | was shooting at. 1t has
always been a very bitter subject to me, Jean,
and one that | have always refused to discuss.
Perhaps it is just as well, however, to tell you
and your father of it, for you may at some time
hear a garbled untrue account of it. l

about two years. AS perhaps you know, ranch
men always refer to their ranch, not by the
owners name, but by his brand, and the brand
of this ranch was w. within a circle, and it
owned by native Kentuckian, named John
Wells. He had been unusually kind to me, prob
ably because l was also Kentuckan, and he

ranch at Wyoming as he had become very
much interested in the irrigation projects up
there. For some months previous to the shoot
ing both our ranch and the surrounding ranches
had suffered quite considerable losses through
cattle rustlers. The ranch owners determined
to put stop to the depreciation, and had secured
the services of a couple of men, famous for that
kind of work. After some little investigation
they concluded they had located the rustlers
in what was known Big Canyon about
twenty-five miles north of our ranch. A band
of cowboys consisting of three or four
men from each ranch was detailed to help them,
and | was among the number. The country
was very wild around Big Canyon, and in the
canyon itself were three four little valleys
with plenty of grass and water, thus making it
an ideal place for rustlers The canyon was
about twenty miles long, and the upper entrance
led to a very mountainous country, through which
they could easily make their escape, with their
cattle.
Several cross gullies intercepted the canyon,
and was detailed, with half dozen men to guard
these cross gullies and the upper end of the
canyon. l stationed a man at each little gully,
and reached the upper end of the canyon with
two men, both splendid shots, late in the after
noon. We had been instructed to camp here all
night as the attack at the lower end was to be
made in the morning. A little mountain stream
almost dry at that season of the year. ran

mounted there and were getting ready for camp,
when | heard Stone, of the with me,
calling to me. He had across freshly made
tracks leading into the canyon. We examined
them carefully, and concluded that they were
those of two ponies, and they bore every evil

determined to reconnoiter the canyon short
distance while it was still light, for had come
to the conclusion that whoever it was that had
entered the canyon probably part of the
rustler outfit, who had gotten wind of our move
ments and were endeavoring to warn their
rades.
About three quarters of mile from its en-
trance, the canyon on the side of the stream that
1 was on, widened out into little rock-strewn
plain. From this little plain the sides of the
canyon sloped gradually up to the top, broken
by occasional little terraces which furnished
ceent opportunities for ambuscades With this
thought in view l followed the trail very
tously across the plain | had almost reached
the other side when l heard someone say Hands
