Old gorilla interrupted my chain of thoughts, by reappearing from wherever hed departed to on our first arrival, and invited me to accompany him on a tour of the rancho. On the inspection tour I marveled at the cut of such a mastermind. Everything was built to resemble those huge rocks, right down to their horse corral. I had to give them credit for being so shrewd in concealing such a large establishment from prying eyes in the air. Inspection finished, we returned to the parlor, as old gorilla called it. Wed been seated only about ten minutes when he announced the presence of La Capitania. I arose to my full six feet, three inches and slowly turned to face the lady who had just entered. There was no mistaking it was Dorotea. She was a hell of a lot more beautiful than her photo showed. She was wearing a dark blue flared skirt, a white lace blouse that proudly showed the shape of her heavy breasts that reminded yours truly of the Twin Sister Mountains. Those mammoth mounts looked as though they were straining with all their might to bust out of the half bra that held them imprisoned. Any man would be a fool if hed. refuse to set her up on a mantle to just look at every day of the year, for she was a doll. There is just no way I can think of to express her beauty. He smile gave a glow to her face and caused pretty doll-lik- e those two little dimples to stand out like diamonds. I should say She advanced waltzed forward, extending her dainty, hand. as herself She introduced Dorotea a la Vargas, saying, Welcome Amigo, to Ranch de Bouldiers. Taking her hand gently and bowing in the best Spanish style, I replied, 'ns the gift of God for one so humble to meet a lady so beautiful. I treasure it as a pleasure to call my own. Mi n ombre, Kedrick Kolt, I lied. She lead the way to the dinner, where she introduced her five gun men. Old gorilla was called Arturo, the two brothers were Edmundo and Edwardo, the cook was Ricardo. The youngest one, only eighteen I figured, was Enrique. The meal was delicious, the wine excellent. It was a relief to learn that I had only five gun men to deal with, if it came to a gunfight. By counting her it added to six. It was hellve odds. I figured Id have just about the chance of getting put alive as a well-manicur- ed snowball the size of a marble dropped into a pot of boiling water. During the meal there was a good flow of conversation. When asked what line of business I was in, I said I was an agent for a leading insurance company, another lie. I was beginning to enjoy myself. Around a warm comfortable fire in the mountains when the sun goes down, so does the mercury and my Rapido. Enrique got his guitar and sang a few numbers, then asked if Id care to do the honor. It was written all over him that he was dying to throw slurring remarks about the tall blond stupid American who couldnt serenade his charming hostess, but I fooled him by not allowing him that opportunity.

My dear,J long for you at the close of a live long day. I hold you in my arms, and croon the words of an old song of love to you. I sang many other love songs, then finished with a new one, titled La Paloma. Senor, you sing so beautiful. Some of your songs Ive not heard since I was a Nirta, she said. I guess, senor, you are wondering why I seht you an invitation to be my guest. Yes, I said, but Ive enjoyed it to the highest, every minute. Senor, ive got to visit Mexico City on important matters. I wish to hire you to fly me there, say for the sum of three hundred pesos. Now are you available? Well, 111 be damned, I thought; it seemed impossible to be true. I had racked my brains for at least thirty hours trying to figure a way to get her from under the noses of her hired guns. Now here she was with a wonderful excuse, deliberately asking me to deliver her to prison and offering to pay me to do roused by the feeling I wasnt alone. I wrapped my hand around the carved ivory grips of Judge Colt that always slept between my knees. It was a very helpful little trick Id learned from an old renegade of Villas days.
