aim. He had not even tried to hit
the men who were shooting at him.
1t must be some ghastly joke.
1t remained with him, in the back
ground Of his mind, up TO and
through his trial What shook his
nerve was the fact that he had taken
life, not the certainty OF the pun

It did not take the lawyer whom
West engaged long to decide on the

The day before the trial Dave was
sitting in his cell cheerlessly reading
newspaper when visitors were an

Crawford and Bob Hart he choked
in his throat. Tears brimmed in his
eyes. Nobody had been kinder TO

ashamed Of his emotion.

They did. BY the time Crawford,
Hart, and a pair Of victims who had
been trapped by the sharpers had
testified about Miller and Doble,
these worthless had no shred of repu-

shown that they had robbed the de-
fendant OF the horse he had trained
and that he had gone to lawyer
and found no legal redress within
his means.
But Dave was unable to prove
self-defense. Miller stuck doggediy

rose and dried the moisture. Dave
looked down on a town scattered up

CHAPTER XIV
The warden handed him a ticket
back to Denver. and with it a
stereotyped little lecture of plati-
tudes.
Sanders walked slowly out OF the
Office and through the door in the
wall that led back to life He was
free. Tomorrow was his. All the
tomorrows Of all the years Of his
life we're waiting for him. But the
fact stirred in him no emotion. As
he stood in the dry Colorado sun
shine his heart was quite dead.
From one job to another Dave
drifted. His stubborn pride. due in
part TO a native honesty that would
not let him live under false pre-
lenses. in part TO a bitterness thai

At the junction he took the stage
for Malapi. Already no could see
that he was going into a new world
one altogether different from that
he had last seen here. These men
were not cattlemen. They talked
the vocabulary CT oil. They had
the shrewd. keen look OF the drillei
and the wildcatter.
At Malapi Dave descended from

fused, according to the police, who add
cd that he told them that when he saw
the "robber' at the dining room door
Saturday he Immediately recalled the
request upon him and realized that
the hold-uD was fake. He was in
