"Mescalero Ted, Ell? That was the

and there were deep lines of anxiety
craven about his eyes, bloodshot from
the endless glare of the bare hills.
"Our best card is this NOVEL; girl.

right partial to Mescalero Ted"
"Ain't no one told her bout Ted's

ten on Ken's bronzed features.
Appealingly, Cassidy laid hand on
Ken's arm. "No-she's not the kind
to listen to gossip, besides there's plen

Later, hell" Ken was amazed at
his own vehemence. "What if she
goes off with him before them"
"She WON'T" FELTON, said with dub
ious sureness. "But we've got to let
things go-for while"
lingering his wide jaw, Ken said,
"What is this franchise that's locoing
you hombres?"
AS they turned into the single-rut
ted road which divided double line
of one-story frame shacks, Felton's
dusky shoulders again rose in an elo-
quent shrug of disgust.

Ken nodded. He knew of Felton's
fragile, anxious wife, his growing
family of six.
