that for bachelor Ward was very Or

hang down over the -four sacks in
way to whiten their hens. She hung
them in a different place.
But where was Ward? Billy Louise

leading in different directions, and the
soil was too dry to leave any distin-

She waited for an hour or two, sit

But Billy Louise felt as though some
thing precious had died. She should
have gone down and investigated and
turned those cattle loose-that is, II

fear that held her to the upper slopes.
She did not want to know what brand
they bore or whether an iron had scar

"Oh, Godp she said once aloud, and

So trouble-trouble that sickened her
very soul and choked her into dumb

dusk of the canyons and over the
brighter hilltops.
Billy Louise did not remember any

called ''parson."
"Come, parsOn, what brought you

"Out. with 1T. Shoot anybOdyT
asked one.
mo, didn't shoot anyone but since
you would like to know, I got time
because I didn't build a churchv'
Deep silence fell upon the group.
No such excuse for penal servitude
had ever been heard before, and the
"parson" was asked to explain.
"Well, you see, a congregation raised
several thousand dollars to build a
church, and handed it over to me to
build, and l didn't build 1t. That's
