 "'You heard what Lundy said?'
 "Its true, Alex Uncle Jerry groaned. ...
 Dad blew up, then. You damned fool.' he stormed. If you wanted more money why didn't you come to me?'
 Dad stood at the door of the tunnel, staring off across the des- ert. Lundy and his gang quiet and waiting. Dad was thinking: Jerry was his kid brother He shouldn't have brought the boy to this sink hole. Yes, it was his fault. "'Scared, son?' he asked gently, facing Uncle Jerry again. Lets hear about it.

 I'm not telling Uncle Jerry said stubbornly.
 Dad nodded. All right. l won't hold that against you. Here's one of my guns. Don't use it unless you have to. I'll do the best I can for you. I'll get you out somehow. I'm going to lock you up now and talk
