pack the unconscious Felix into
town AMI Jail him for the stage
coach robbery. It was a bold plan,
but Billy always rather favored the
bold plan. With Craft in Jail and
wearing the clothing worn by the
robber, to which clothing the COM
PLEASANT Jerry Fern and his passen-
gers would undoubtedly be prepared
to swear, it would be hard indeed. If
xRiIl could not fasten the robbery on
pm, Craft.
It must have been his good angel
who cauhed him to look through the
front window. He looked and saw a
cloud Of horsemen securing toward
the ranch house. He Immediately
recognized, to his great disgust half
a dozen Of Sam Larder's punchers.
He abandoned the plan Of taking
Felix Craft to town. He would be
hard put to escape himself.
Billy topped his mount. struck in
spurts and fled. The other horse
he perforce left standing.
