"sure. Stud poker. Well

yearly at the little army post,
had always marked a time of
welcome fiesta for Verde and
the desert country.
All that morning from dis
tant outlying ranches herders
and cowboys came loping into

shirts and white, wide-brimmed
stetsons, riding their best
mounts, eagerly looking for

return to their long, lonely vigil
among the herds. From far
beyond the border. Mexican Ud-
QueroS rode, very gorgeously
adorned after the fashion of
their conquering ancestors,
from spangled sombrero to the
polished tip of each tapadera,
their saddles heavy with intri-
cate silver chasing. In twos
and fours they rode, singing in
nSping Spanish those lifting,
deathlesS songs of the open

BY noon time, work on the
dam beyond the Barrier had
stopped, and all Sari's hench-

had carried off the coveted

had phoned Nora only to learn
that she was riding with

Disappointed, he spent the
rest of the morning riding in
search of a Strayed thorough
bred bull, and in spite of the
sharp winter air and cloudless
sky, he could not shake off a
vague feeling of uneasiness-a
feeling of foreboding, too form
less for him to analyze but too
persistent to be denied. He rode
hard, Sparing neither himself
nor his rorse, and returning for
q late lunch, hurried to make
ready for the fiesta. Stub had
already saddled two horses, and
now, to Dicks surprise, held out
an automatic and cartridge belt,
filled with extra clips.

"It amt that, Boss. The boys

Impatiently Dick shook his
head. "These days, Stub, we've

THIS surname is derived from the
= Office of forest keeper, "one who
walked with a forest-bill and took
cognizance Of all offenses commit
ted" The first mention of the fam
lily name appears in the Hundred Rolls
of England, in 1878, where we find the
name of La Woodward.
The coat of arms here displayed
is accredited to the colonist William
Woodward. who settled in Maryland
about the middle of the eighteenth
century. William Woodward had been
goldsmith, member of the Guild
Of London, 1700-1774. He was the
son of Henry woodward of Newing-
ton, County Surrey, England. Ar
irving in the Maryland Colony, he
established his home in Baltimore and
it is recorded that the inherited large
estates in Anne Arundel County, un-
der the will of his uncle. Amos Gar
rett, q wealthy merchant.
In the New England Colony, es-
pecially In Massachusetts,, we find q
number of early arrivals bearing the
name Woodward. Perhaps the first
of them was Henry Woodward, who
came in 1885 and settled in Dorches-
ter, Mass. Peter Woodward was a
freeman In Dedham IN l642. Ralph
came from Dublin, Ireland, and set
tied In bingham In 1887 Richard.

and settled In Watertown in 1885.
Descendants Of these early found
ers are now living In practically every
