"Father!" Paloma was deeply
shocked.
Complete isolation, of course, Alaire
had found to be impossible, even
though her ranch lay far from the trav-

were not encouraging to visitors. Bust
ness inevitably brought her into con-
tact with q considerable number of
people, and of these the one she saw
most frequently was Judge Ellsworth
Of Brownsville, her attorney.
It was perhaps a week after Ed had
left for San Antonio that Alaire felt
the need of Ellsworth's counsel, and
sent for him. Ellsworth was a kindly
man of fifty-fve, with a forceful chin
and dropping, heavy-lidded eye that
could either blaze or twinkle. Judge
Ellsworth knew more than any four
men in that part of Texas; information
had a way of seeking him out. He was
u good lawyer, too, and yet his knOWl-
edge of human nature he considered
far more important than law His
mind was like full granary, and every
grain lay where he could put his hand
upon it.
