The court then explained to the
Jurors that. the law OF Arizona
prohibits motorists from approach
ing sharp curve greater
rate of speed tina. ,e mile per
15 minutes, and I, . it permits
a rate of speed in "open coun-
try highway up to 35 miles an

Judge O'Connor defined an ac-
cident for which no one is to
blame as a "misadventure," and
declared that it was not punish
able as crime.
He then gave the jurors the two
forms of verdicts, and, in closing.
adjured them to be guided by the
law and the evidence, according
TO their oaths, and not be swayed
by sentiment for either side.
Yesterday morning, as the zero
hour for her young husbands
freedom drew near, Mrs.. Madele-
inc Huston Spraggins Duffey, the
beautiful bride of the defendant,
moved her seat from the section of
the courtroom occupied by Duff
fey's parents and aunts, and sat
by the defendant, inside the rail-
ing. She wore a black dress
trimmed with white lace, and a
close-fitting black hat trimmed
with wshite flowers.
Duffey's mother and three
aunts, all raf them youthful and
attractive in appearance, have
been in constant attendance at the
trial, as has the defendants fa-
ther, G. o. Duffey, Sr.
The jury had been Instructed
to report at II o'clock yesterday
morning. When that hour ar
rived, however, Judge W.A.O'-
Connor, who is presiding over the
case, announced that he was not as
yet ready to deliver his instruc-
tions, and ordered the twelve good
men and true to report again at
2 o'clock in the afternoon.
The entire forenoon was taken
up with informal arguments for
requested instructions, in which
all the attorneys in the case par
ticipated. Bonsa'l Noen, coun-

state, and Leslie C. Hardy and

Archie R. Conner. of Campbell

the interests Of the defendant.
The six attorneys were clust-
cred around Judge O'Connor's
desk for several hours, earnestly
maintaining that their respective
views Of the law should be adopt
ed by the court in his instructions.
Occasionally the LAWYERS voices
rose high in forensic debate, while
the law SPECTATORS in the court

about.

famous outlaw developed by these wild
years had suffered more or less from
this natural exaggeration and misrep-
resentation. But no outlaw before
him had ever had such host of ad-
mirers and partisans who freely gave
the lie to any accusation of robbery or
crime attributed to him.
1t was widely known that he had
never earned dollar in his out
law career 1t was sworn by many
and reputable men that he had never
stolen one Few towns or villages on
that border had no storekeeper who
had not tale to tell about Duane,
the Lone; Wolf.
One afternoon, from the top of a
long hill, Duane saw the green fields
and trees and shining roofs of a town
he considered must be Shirley; and at
the bottom of the hill he came upon an
intersecting road. There was a pla-
card nailed on the cross-r road sign-post.
Duane drew rein near it and leaned
close to read the faded print:
$1,000 REWARD FOR BUCK
DUANE DEAD OR ALIVE.
Peering closer to read the finer,
more faded print, Duane learned that
he was wanted for the murder of Mrs.
Jeff Aiken at her ranch near Shirley.
The month of September was named,
but the date was illegible. The reward
was offered by the woman's husband,
whose name appeared, with that of
sheriff's, at the bottom of the pla-
card :
Duane read the thing twice. When
he Strengthened he was sick with the
horror Of his fate, wild with passion
at those misguided fools who could
believe that he had harmed woman.
When Duane reached the crossing OF
the roads the name Fairfield on the
sign-post seemed to be the thing that
tipped the oscillating balance of decis-
ion i'll favor OF that direction. He an
swered here to unfathomable impulse.
In Duane's state of mind clear rea-
Soning, common sense, or keenness
were out of the question. He went be-
cause he felt that he was compelled.
Dusk had fallen when he rode into
town which inquiry discovered to be
Fairfield. Captain MacNelly's camp
was stationed just out of the village
limits on the other side.
No one except the boy Duane ques-
toned appeared to notice his arrival.
Like Shirley, the town of Fairfield was
large and prosperous, compared to the
innumerable hamlets dotting the vast
extent of southwestern Texas. AS
Duane rode through, being careful to
get off the main street. he heard the
tolling of a church bell that was mel
ancholy reminder of his old home.
There did not appear to be any camp
on the outskirts of the town. But as
Duane sat his horse, peering around
and undecided what further move to
make, he caught the CLINT of Pickering
lights through the darkness.
