True to his word, when John Card-

his Squaw creek woods-gang and join
ed the crew already getting out logs
in the San Hedrin watershed. Not
until then did Bill Henderson realize
that John Cardigan had called his
bluff-whereat Ne cursed himself for
fool and poor judge of human ma

the next few weeks the Colonel, under
pretense of going hunting or fishing
on Squaw creek, managed to make
fairly accurate cursory cruise of the
Henderson timber--following which
he purchased 1t from the delighted
Bill for a dollar and quarter per
thousand feet stumpage.

year. however. the rainfall in the San
Hedrin country was fifty per cent
less than normal. and by the first of
May of the following year Cardigan's
woods-crew had succeeded in driving
slightly less than half of the cut of
the preceding year to the boom on
