the letter inside her blouse and spoke
to her pony, which turned leisurely
down the road.

Spain, managing with his knee to keep
his own horse moving alongside Nan

Nan, without speaking, ruthlessly
widened the distance between the two.
De Spain unobtrusively spurred his
steed to greater activity. "You must
have great deal of game around you.
Do you hunt?" he asked.
He knew she was famed rs a hunt

and when at length she excused her

Sleepy Cat road into the Morgan gap

every attempt to arouse the slightest

All CGlabasas Knew that Elpaso, if
he had to, would fight, and that the &C.
centric guard was not actually to be
cOrnered with impunity. Even Logan,
who, like SanduSkV, was known to be
without fear and without mercy, felt
at least a respect for Elpaso's short
ened shotgun, and stopped this side
actual hostilities with him. Sassoon,
however, nOurished a particular griev-
ance against the meditative guard and
his was one not tempered either by
prudence OR calculation. His chance
came one night when Elpaso had I'M
wisely allowed himself to be drawn
into a card game at Calabasas inn. FL
paso was VIGOROUSLY a stickler for a
square deal at cards. A dispute found
him without friend in the room. Sas-
soon reached for him with a knife.
McAlpin was the first to get the
news at the barn. He gave first aid to
the helpless guard, and, without dream
ing he could be got to a surgeon alive,
rushed him in a light wagon to the
hospital at Sleepy Cat, where it was
said that he must have more lives than
a wildcat. Sassoon, not caring to brave
De SPANS anger in town, went tenn
porarily into hiding. Elpaso, in the
end, justified his old reputation by
making a CONTEMPLATING it is

It was while he still lay in the hos

Spain and Lefever rode, one hot morn

McAlpin that Sassoon had been seen
within five minutes at the inn. To Lee

spring to a thirsty man. His face
beamed, he frightened his belt, shook

The chief stage-guard, Bob Scott,
the Indian, was in the barn. He smiled
at Lefever's enthusiasm. "Sassoon,"
said he, ''is slippery"
