darkness, he instantly sought his pis-
tol. "Do not shoot, it is Sheilah.
You must leave here, do not betray

chanically.
He was soon out of the prairie, amid
the darkness and drizzling cold rain,
filled with such sensations as he had
never experienced before, and the
words, "do not forget me-" ringing in
