Just avoid him. Buck, I'm not afraid
Cal would get you. What I'm most
afraid Of is that you'll kill Bain."
Duane was silent, letting his uncle's
earnest words sink in, trying to realize
their significance.
"Buck," went on the uncle, you're
twenty-three now, an powerful sight
of fine fellow, barrin' your temper.

"Pm out of grub and pretty hungry

you hit tibet stretch of country"
He made wide sweep of his right
arm, indicating the southwest, and
there was that in his action which
seemed significant of a vast and bar
rem region.

fully.

way to Mercer. It's a little two-bit
town up the river ways. I'm goin'
to pack out some grub"
Stevens tone was inviting. Evident
ly he would welcome Duane's compan-
ionship, but he did not openly say so.
Duane kept silence, however, and then
Stevens went on.

not presumin' TO ask. But jest de-
clares myself sufficient"
"You mean you'd like me to go with
you?" asked Duane.
Stevens grinned. "Wal, I should
smile. I'd be particular proud to be
braced with man of your reputa-
ton"
"See here, my good fellow, that's all
nonsense" declared Duane, in some
haste.
"Shore I think modesty becomin' to

about you. But every man who's lived
along the Texas border remembers a

the fgger on the ace of spades would
cover your cluster of bullet holes.
Thet's the word thet's gone down the
border. Now, Buck, I'm not a spring
an I've been long on the
dodge. Mebbe a little of my society
won't hurt you none. You'll need to
learn the country"
There was something sincere and
ikable about this outlaw.
81 dare say you're right" replied
Duane, quietly. ''And I'll go to Mer-
GER with you"
Next moment he was riding down
the road with Stevens. Duane had

"Son, you killed him-then?" asked
the uncle, huskily.
"Yes. stood over him-watched
him die. l did as I would have been
done by"
II knew 1t. Long ago I saw it COM
in. But now we can't stop to cry
over split blood. You've got to leave
town an this part of the country"
"Mother!" exclaimed Duane.
"She's away from home. You can
wait. I'll break it to her-what she
always feared"
Suddenly Duane sat down and COW
cred his face with his hands.

His broad shoulders shook.

way, because maybe you'll never grow
hard an callous. You're not to blame
This is Texas. You're your fathers
son. These are wild times. The law
as the rangers are laying it down now
can't change life all in a minute
"Tm a murderer" said Duane, shud-
dering.
"No, son, you're not. An you never
will be. But you've got to be an out
law till time makes it safe for you to
come home"
"An outlaw"

an wherever you go an whatever you

When this thing is lived down, if that
time ever comes, I'll get word into the
unsettled country. It'll reach you
some day. That's all. Remember, be
a man. Good-by."
Duane, with blurred sight and con-
tracing throat, gripped his uncle's
hand and babe him a wordless fare
well. Then he leaped astride the black
and rode out of town.
AS swiftly as was consistent with a
care for his steed, Duane put dis
lance of fifteen or eighteen miles
behind him. He passed several
ranches, and was seen by men. This
did not suit him, and he took an old
trail across country. 1t was a fiat
region with poor growth of mesquite
and prickly-pear cactus. Occasionally
he caught a glimpse of low hills in the
distance. He had hunted often in that
section, and knew where to find grass
and water. When he reached this
higher ground he did not, however,
halt at the first favorable camping
spot, but went on and on.
At last he found secluded spot, I'M
der cover of thick mosquitoes and oaks, |
at goodly distance from the old trail. !
He took saddle and pack off the horse, |
made small fire, prepared and ate his |
supper. This done, ending the work
of that day, he sat down and filled his
pipe. When night set in and the
place seemed all the more isolated and
lonely for that Duane had sense of
relief.
1t dawned upon him all at once that
he was nervous, watchful, sleepless.
The fact caused him surprise, and he
began to think back, to take note of
MS late actions and their motives. The
change one day had wrought amazed
him. He who had always been free,
easy, happy, especially when out alone
n the open, had become in few short
tours bound, serious, preoccupied. He
elt tired, yet had no inclination to !

reading toward the southwest. Had !

nesquite and rock bordering the Rio

efuge. For he was fugitive from {

CHAPTER II.

When Duane came to the gate of
his home and saw his uncle there with
mettlesome horse, saddled, with can
teen, rope and bags all in place, a
subtle shock pervaded his spirit. 1t
had slipped his mind-the consequence
of his act. But sight of the horse ana
the look Of his uncle recalled the fact
that he must now become fugitive.
An unreasonable anger took hold of
him.

never been much of talkerr and now
he found speech difficult. But his
companion did not seem to mind that.
He was a jocose, yoluble fellow, prob
ably glad now to hear the sound of
his own voice. Duane listened, and
sometimes he thought with a pang
of the distinction of name and heritage
OF blood his father had left to him.

CHAPTER III.

Late that day, couple of hours be-
fore sunset, Duane and Stevens, hav-
ing rested their horses in the shade Of
some mesquites near the town of Mer-
Ger, saddled up and prepared to move.
