Shut up"
So Bull shut up while we dashed him,
likewise young Ginger and the greaser.
Seeing the fellow I'd killed might want
an inquest, we laid him straight in the
ruined shack, and then marched our
prisoners off to South Cave, where
they'll wait until We get our constable

there's our cave full of captured BAN

Ginger, and the dago. Down on the
bench in front of the cave is our
guard-camp with Iron Dale in com.

supper. Right home at the ranch
house is me finishing my chores, and

of bringing me some message from
