he began to stammer apologies.

boy replied with pride. "See !" and
he showed the gun to us. But my
orders are to shoot If anybody tries
to run away, and I'd have to do 1t

He gave the girl, whose wrist he
held look meant to be loftily de-
termined, but looking closely I saw
that the boy was actually shaking. I
guessed it was his very first assign
ment, and that he was drunk with
excitement and an exaggerated sense
of power and responsibility.
1t is from his type before season.

innocent bystanders, and ! knew that

older companion of his arrived to
