Joy in Work

Is there not rather tendency as
we grow older to lose our enthusiasm,
to get a little dull, little blunted,
and to say that we have sobered

a man on! 1t drives him forward in

CHAPTER XIV
Homeward Bound

Wilson Mccain knew that with the
coming of dawn the storm would break
upon him. The escape of Phil would
drive the rustlers across the border.
But there was no immediate haste.
They would have thirty-six hours prob
ably before posse could arrive, and
meanwhile they would take pains to
destroy the man who had spoiled their
plans.
It was not possible to find an ideal
location for defense, but he chose
sand pit surrounded by boulders. With
out fire the night was chill. There
were pinon knots near he could have
lit, but he did not intend to start
smoke signal for his enemies.
The hours wore away slowly. He
catnapped a little, but he dared not
let himself get sound asleep for fear
they might creep on him in the dark
ness.
Gray light sifted into the sky. A
meadow lark piped up it's gay chirrupy
challenge. The jig-saw top of white
range showed above the opposite cliff.
An agitated patch of greasewood
brought him to a focused attention
until a coyote trotted out from it's
cover and ambled away on search for
breakfast.
Dawn was at hand. He ate sand
witch and drank from the canteen he
had replenished at spring.
In {o1I aims
He saw signs of life about the house.
Smoke rose from the chimney. A man
came out and went to the spring for
water. Through his field glasses he
presently saw others emerge. All car
ried rifles. They trooped to the corral,
saddled horses, and rode cautiously
into the pine grove. Evidently they
wanted to make sure he was not hid
den there. After a consultation they
rode down the hillside and disappeared
into dip of the valley floor.
They came out of the shadowy dawn
like wraiths of evil not boldly riding
grouped together but Sinking, coyote
fashion, through the mesquite that
fringed the park walls. He counted
them-one, two, three, four.
He watched them dismount and take
their horses back Of clump of small
pines. One by one they came out and
disappeared into the chaparral. They
had guessed he was in the boulder
field and were creeping forward on a
still hunt to find exactly where
The net was Tightening. Wilson
knew the enemy was drawing closer.
| Once or twice he observed slight
rustling Of greasewood or manzanita.
But those stalking him kept we'll hid
| den.
Cool though he was, his pulses
pounded. Injured to danger from early
youth, he knew he had never been in
as tight place as this. The meadow
lark flung out again it's gay love song.
He wondered if he would be alive to-
morrow to hear that rising Tilt and
cadence.
The ping of q bullet whistled past.
He ducked instinctively. From q
clump of bushes three hundred yards
away a puff of smoke thinned into the
clear air. He watched that brush
screen, but not steadily, since his
glance had to sweep the whole field OF
vision in front and discover any sus-
picious object or any slightest unusual
motion of vegetation.
Those surrounding him were all old
timers except Jasper Stark and he had
been brought up on the frontier. Will
son understood what that implied

They would take no unnecessary
chances, would make use OF their
knowledge of the terrain to get him
at disadvantage If possible. The
business of exterminating him might
take many hours, but they were pre-
