munity with so great an emphasis that
there was no man he could ask to ride
BY his side. Bob Mitchell, whose duty
it would have been, was gone; John
: Hough was the only other man he felt
he could trust. and he would not con-
front his good friend with choice.
In the moment when he ran toward
his horse, leaving Ruth Mitchell be-
hind him. he thought he might ask any
OF a hundred men to 60 with him on
this errand; but when it came to NAM
ing one-he found himself lost. Most
Of them suspected him of evasion, de-
ception, and until he cleared himself
in their eyes he could ask no aid.
Then he had asked himself: But
why another? Why not alOne?'
And he had filled his lungs with air,
feeling strong. filled with vigor. He
knew Sears fear was not in his heart.
Needless of the outlaws warning he
went, considering no danger, con.
sumed only with his purpose.
The flashlike meeting with Kennedy
seemed, after it was over, a piece OF
absurd unrealty. He still felt the
place in his side against which the
heavy weapon had been thrust. he
knew that delay Of split instant in
striking down that hand would have
meant one thing-death. And yet he
could not make himself understand
that he had grazed disaster by such
scant margin.
