CHAPTER XXI
The End of the Rope.

PrOnto had chosen. his own trail
and gait Oack to the Three Star. It
vas Goldie that Sandy rode under
the stars toward Nipple peaks. He
was alone, refusing any company of
Sam or the riders. Molly's last kiss
had been the key that turned in the
lock of his heart and opened up to
reality the garden of his dreams where
the W of them would walk together.
work together all their days. 1t could
have meant nothing else. And she
had been afraid-for him. PIimsoll
living was a blot upon the fair page
of happiness. Though Molly, thank
God, had come through unframed, to
Sandy the touch of Plimsoll was a
deflement that could only be wiped
out by his death.
As he rode over the finny ridge of
Elk mountain and saw the Nipple
peaks cleaning above the black pines
across the valley, with Elk river
cleaning in the middle, he realized
that he had said nothing TO Molly of
Keith, of the shutting down of the
mine and his own action In her name.
While she had asked nothing of young
Donald. For the time ii had been as
II the rest of the world had been
fenced off from them and their own
intimate affairs.
He compressed his knees and the
mare answered in a lope that
stretched into a garlop, fast and fast
er as she reached the levels and sped
toward Elk river. Sandy was not go
ing to waste time looking for a ford.
The mare could swim. He scanned
the mountain toward the peaks, passed
over the dark impenetrable pines,
surveyed the stretch OF gently rising
ground between the Elk and the trees
and shifted his guns in their scab-
bards. His rifle he had left with
Sam. Either Plimsoll had not passed
the peaks. was In the woods, or he
had come and gene. Something told
Sandy this last had not occurred.
Travel beyond the peaks must have
been hard and slow and roundabout
for Pllmsoll while he had tangented
fast for the cutoff.
