One of their mounts had the extra burden of carrying Joy. It would low their pace. He quirted his tiring buckskin for better than a mile and the swath of trampled grass ran on vacantly ahead. He gave in then to hit knowledge of their swifter ponies. His own had already given its best. To crosscut between one bend and another he swung up the channel bank. He looked south and suddenly pulled hi horse in and rod in short, fast circles. At the same and time he drew his forty-fou- r shot it into the air. The far-of- f spot of blue was plain now Joe Wheat bringing the cavalry troop. Yet at more than two miles they couldnt hear hit gun and gave no sign of recognizing his riding signal. They kept on toward the stalled herd. Back there, equally two miles way, he could see the little darting figures of men spreading out to catch the horses. While almost out of sight beyond them the split-of- f bunch of cattle were vanishing to the west The channel wandered back and forth, the banks gently sloping, Its bottom smooth and green. The short cuts let him gain a lot. They'd keep under cover themselves, following down the crooked way. He watched backward, hoping any moment that some of the outfit would show up. But they might be riding directly along the Indians trail. Each time he plunged into the winding course there was only the empty trampled grass. Those devils could move! His run brought the black V.'ichi-ta- s looming up Into the fog that had held low overhead all day. Light around him began to fade. The channel straightened. He saw water of North Fork Creek beyond the narrow mouth. He loped on for half a mile and the hunch that had pulled him this far became like a magnet losing its force. The wash lay empty on ahead. A sense of every moment taking her farther from him with those brown devils made his skin crawL No use going on this way any more. He pulled to a stop and sat listening. Any sound from the canyon mouths would carry far in the still air. Not even a blue Jays warning chatter broke the His heart Wichita's dead hush. went cold. He was turning to head back down the stream when there came a coyote's quavering bark. It held him rigid. Too early in the evening for those animals to be on the prowl. He pulled his rifle from its scabbard and saw his ears buckskins little black-tippeswing and point. There was danger here. But he could locate nothing up where they directed. Slowly he moved the horse again. "Hold on, son! Old Willy Nickle stepped from the willow fringe. he said and rode toward Willy! him. You old coon! "Been seein you, said Willy. That was all just then. He turned his gentle changeless face and stared off blankly. But he might be learning things; you never could tell. Lew waited, keeping down his sudden impatience.

He moved his Which way? horse. Willy stood there calmly looking Now you hold on. Dont you up. never go trailing Indians up too close. It was Crazy Bear had her on his pony. Him and six of his bucks.

They'll wait for that, said WilTake a white man now and ly. hed risk his hide to stop. But Crazy Bear, hell want to parade her in camp first and maybe get some buck to fight him for her. Seems like an Indian has always got to mix it up with fighting. Well, this nigger dont know why. He looked north up the creek, nodding. You ride on now, easy. He stepped back and was gone. This was no time to doubt old Willy Nickle. Yet it wasnt the way hed get on the hunt himself. Hed find the trail and ride it. But he knew that Willy was half Indian in most things by now, wise to all their tricks and able to understand the language of any plains tribe. In a little while a canyon stream came down to join North Fork. He was standing on its bank. They turned up here, he said and pointed. See, theyre leaving sign.
