Sierra took off a rack of ribs while
Breck found cups and poured cof-
fee. They sat together on log.
Breck drank his first cupful,
poured another, suddenly aware of
nerves beginning to let down.
"Seen Jud and Hep?" Sierra
asked.
"They haven't been here all day."
''How do you figure that?"
az don't. Neither does Cook"
Sierra tore two ribs apart and
deftly secured the meat between his
teeth; that finished, he said gravely,
"What do you suppose Art was sash
ayin' around alone for-actin' plumb
loco that way?"
"He was loco" Breck answered,
"over a girl, and that explains a
| lot. He went out of his head over
this girl ! brought up. She made
a fool of him and he came back at
me-"
Sierra nodded. That's about what
! might a-knowed."
| Breck said nothing. Through the
pines he saw figures moving again
about the dance fire. Voices were
lifted to a higher pitch of excite
ment. His eyes went to the cabin
where light showed in one window.
Presently Sierra expressed Breck's
own thought. We'll anyway" he
drawled, cart won't cause US no
trouble for long time"
Breck nodded. But there were
still the other two.
A breeze stirred the Goals into
burst of flame Light added distance
to the circle of vision. Breck's gaze
moved up the slope behind him,
passing slowly through the black
| tree trunks. 1t halted upon one spot.
He stared, half-rising, then suddenly
caught Sierra's arm.
"Slim!"
Sierra looked. A figure was COM
| ing down toward them, stumbling,
one hand groping as if in blindness.
Though the face was smudged and
partly covered by long strings of
hair, Breck recognized the boy from
the Potholes.
"It's Jack Weller" he said quiet
ly to Sierra. Something's wrong.
I've seen that look-we mustn't
frighten him"
The boy approached with glazed
eyes staring at the fire. His jaw
hung slack. Bloody scratches
showed through torn clothing. One
hand outstretched in front of him
held what had once been barn
lantern. Now there was left only
| the wire bail.
Breck stood up slowly when the
boy came within a few feet, but he
| did not speak. The CLASSY eyes rest
ed upon him, moved off, strayed
back. A tight fist lifted the lantern
bail as if to cast its glow higher.

CHAPTER xxi

If Breck had not seen the fash,
he would have thought the report
came from Tillson's pistol. But the
flare was from one side Then he
saw Art grip his saddle horn with
both hands and slump forward.
"Grab that horser"
Breck leaped. obeving the voice.
He drew the animal down. Art was
falling. Then it was Sierra Sims
long arms that reached up. support
ing him before he struck the ground.
Mighty close, pardner." the slow
voice drawled. "You shouldn't a
come out like this"
"Sliml Where 2"
Cant say now. Here, help me
pack him."
Louise ran from the shadows.
sTake him to Dads cabin" she
cried. Quick"
With Art lying unconscious be-
tween them, Breck and Sierra
turned into the back trail. The gun
shot had either gone unheard or was
accepted without interest by the
dance crowd, for no one had moved
from the clearing. But before the
party reached Temples cabin, Cook
stepped from a fringe of trees.
whats up?" he began, then his
eyes fell upon the form they car
ried, and he strobe ahead with no
further question. As soon as they
had Tillson on a bunk, he closed
the door. saying, mo need to have
anyone find out if we can help it."
His thick brown fingers went with
unexpected skill over the boys
body, stripping off his shirt, expos
ing cash through his right arm
and across his chest. Abruptly he
turned to Louise. Go get Joe Scott.
He's horse doctor, but it's al the
same"
The girl ran out. Breck poured a
basin of water and gave it to Cook.
Behind him. Sierra rolled a ciga-
rette and looked on unperturbed.
IT been following Art since after
noon" he offered Found him bust
in around up on the ridge. ridin'
like he was loco. He'd come down
here, sit lookin' on for awhile, then
beat that poor critter Of his back
UP the slope. Drunk, sure. Then
about dark I saw him start spottin'
you. pardner Maybe you've got an
idea what bit him. !"
Breck shook his head, but he could
reconstruct what had happened. Art
getting drunk after Irene threw him
down; brooding over it, driven at
last to take it out on somebody.
Standing here in the cabin, he could
still see the distorted face thrust
