SYNOPSIS.
II -

Tho time Of the story: about 1875. The
place: The Texas COW country. The chief
character: Buckley Duane, young man

suppresses. In self-defense he shoots dead
z drunken bully and is forced to flee to
the wild country where he joins Bland
outlaw band. Euchre, an amiable rascal,
tells him about Jennie, a young girl who
aas been abducted and sold to Bland for a
baa fate. They determine to rescue the
girl and restore her to civilization. Eu-
chre has. just reconnoitered. and is re-
porting the outlook to Buck. Euchre is
killed. Buck kills Bland and is danger
ously wounded by Mrs. Bland, but ,es-
capes with Jennie. Jennie is abducted.
Buck never sees her again. but kills her
abductor. Duane barely escapes death at
the hands of 1ynchers for a crime he new
sr committed; He goes to see Captain
MacNelly OF the Rangers, who hands him
q pardon on condition that he join the
Rangers and assist in breaking up the
outlaws. Duane accepts and goes to the
outlaw headquarters on secret mission.
He meets Colonel Longstreth, mayor Of
Fairdale. and Miss Ray Longstreth and
her cousin, Ruth. Buck arrests a robber
In Longstreth's home and announces that
he is Ranger. The colonel shows mark

was an event. Poor, starved little
beggars! The havoc was wrought in
that household. The needs now were
cheerfulness, kindness, help, action
and these the girls furnished with a
spirit that did Duane good.
Mrs. Laramie, who dressed this
baby?' presently asked Miss Long
streth. Duane peeped in to see a
dilapidated youngster on her knee.

over the goings-on among the
habitues of the resorts and cowboys
who came in to drink and gamble
were unusually mild in comparison
with former conduct. This lull, how
ever, did not deceive Duane. It could
not last. The wonder was that it
had lasted so long.
Duane went often to see Mrs. Lara
mic and her children. One afternoon
while he was there he saw Miss Long
streth and Ruth ride up to the door.
They carried a basket. Evidently
they had heard of Mrs. Laramie's
trouble. Duane felt strangely glad,
but he went into an adjoining room
rather than meet them.
"Mrs. Laramie, I've come to see
you," said Miss Longstreth, cheer
fully.
The little room was not very light,
there being only one window and the
doors, but Duane could see plainly
enough. Mrs. Laramie lay, hollow
checked and haggard, on bed. Once
she had evidently been a woman Of
some comeliness. The ravages of
trouble and grief were there to read
in her worn face; it had not, however,

had characterized her husbands.

Lawson spoke breathlessly, with
haggard face and Swallowed eyes. He
had no shame. He was simply in the
grip of passion.

look Duane saw a strong, unscrupu-

still man. It betrayed Lawson to
be the wild and passionate weakling.
Like the great majority of evil and

was his last stand. He looked desper-

to do was to kill Lawson.

had not been present. He was
