II MBALL had been riding since early
IN morning, and the rain was in his mar
row. He needed drink. He finished with
the hide trader and pocketed the green
backs. Then he rode down the street to the
Long Branch Saloon.
The bar was crowded. But three seconds
after he got there, he recognized Young.
IL comes pushing in, he thought. The big
geS country ever made, but not SO big that
the past can't find you.
He knew couple of men at the near end
of the bar and he joined them. The bottle
tipped, and there was talk about how the
herds were running and the price of buffalo
hides. Then one of the men, Burroughs,
asked him about his new Sharps rifle, and
Kimball was about to reply when a hand
tapped him.
Excuse my horning in," said Young,
''but aren't you Hugh kimball from the
BrakOS country"
And aren't you, thought Kimball, the
man / wish I had a right TO kill?
That's right. No sense stalling. You're
Young. Walter Young
Good to see YOU" said Young, putting
out his hand
There was nothing he could do but take
it, Likewise Have a drink?'
Be much obliged" said Young.
Kimball introduced the two other men,
then said, Young comes from my part Of
Texas. Leastways the part l came from
before | came from some other places"
Young laughed, and Kimball heard the
remembered pleasant sound, hating it, hat
ing everything that came back to him with it.
YES" said Young, caused consider
able talk, your lighting out SO quick. No
one understood why" He wasn't asking;
he was stating.

KimbaIl didn't pick it up. He said,
'How's everything down that way?'
Pretty good shape. Always will be for
the ranchers, long as beef prices hold up.
For myself - was married when you were
still there?"
Kimball's fingers frightened on his glass.
But it was straight question; the man
wasn't haunting. YES" he said. Eyes,
you were married" Why else am 1 here?
he thought.
well, had boy since then, said Young.
Were going to have another baby soon."
HE trick was to make believe you were
listening to two other people talk. That
way, you knew what to answer. That's
fine" said Kimball. Congratulations" He
had to get off that subject. Fast. what
brings you to Dodge City?''
well, I'm thinking of moving up here
where there's better schooling for the kids.
Besides, there's couple of new stores
opened in town, so trades fallen off in my
place.
why don't you stay and fight it out?''
said Kimball, hiding the sarcasm, he hoped.
WELL" Young smiled, that's one way.
But I'm on to something new. Fellow came
through while ago. Talking about buffalo
bones"
YES" Burroughs put in, heard about
that up north. Hear it's getting to be quite
business. Men gathering up the bones the
hunters leave and shipping them back east.
Hear they get two dollars ton. Price ris-
ing. And it's there just for the picking up
what do they do with bones?" asked
Kimball.
Grind 'em up into fertilizer" Young
replied, land use EN- to make bone china,

"l'll be going out again the end of the
week, said Kimball I'm at the Morrissey
House. Come by in couple of days.
"You bet will" said Young. ''Now let
me buy drink to celebrate

Talk about surprises. You had such a

The mirror in his room at the Morrissey
was blackened and untrue, but Kimball
could see clearly enough that he looked
older than his thirty years. A touch of gray.
And he'd squinted SO long into the sun that

blandly. Besides, there's all kinds of jobs
for all kinds Of men. l thought I'd look

How could she? Kimball was thinking.
How could she marry this man ? This excuse

so now I'm looking for someone who
knows buffalo to help me get look-see.'
You're playing in luck, Young" said
Burroughs. ''Kimball here is one of the
best hunters working out of Dodge"
I'll be switched. What do you know?
Well, say, Kimball, would you help me?'
What am supposed to do?"
would you let me 60 along with you
once? I'd make hand any way could
Washing dishes thought Kimball. 1--WE
got full crew - skinners and cook" But
he didn't want to refuse the man in front of
strangers. His hates were his own affair.
Besides, there might be some secret comfort
in enjoying this fools foolishness. But my
shell loader wants to go visit his folks. You
might make a trip with me in his job. and
helping the SINNERS"
''WHAT's shell loading?" Young asked.
81 use an extra charge in the shells for my
buffalo gun. All the hunters do. And like
the work to be done right along. To keep
an eye on it. Can you handle gunpowder?''

grinned, but guess Ill make out. Thanks
kindly
Il ought to warn you," said Kimball,
telling the truth but enjoying it, there's
always the chance of stampede. And
besides, the Indians where I'm going are
mite restless"
The Cheyennes," nodded Burroughs.
Hear they're jumpin' the reservation and
attackin' anything they see."
''Well," said Young, blinking at them in
friendly fashion, II wasn't counting on
that. But Ill join the crew if you'll let me"
