Two bands of horsemen had traveled this way, one close on the UP HIU trail of the other, neither set of tracks over two or three hours old. ok down: Here we are, muttered Doane. Theres company rldin ahead. Lets go, old nag. Shortly after noon, on a trail that looked like a cross country stampede, he caught up with a band of six riders, headed by sheriff Sam Flick of San Loreto. Flick had come south following the mountains. Doane and the sheriff met without the formality of handshake, unconcealed enmity on Flicks face. al M mile-eatin- hard-ridde- Sheriff Flicks Posse Hunts Bank Robbers My God! What have I done?

Returning, he paused, listening once more to the irregular sound of her breathing. He bathed her face gently, washing the bleeding wound on her forehead. What a fool! he groaned to himself. What a fool Ive been. She , . . she might have been killed." He stared hard Into the still face for a long time. He bathed her face again, as he held her close. Suddenly he noticed that her breathing was stronger, more regular. The color was returning slowly to her cheeks. Dolores! And carried him through that day and night in the desert, his head bent slowly and he touched her lips. Touched them reverently, and long. Twice he kissed them, three times, four, in a frenzy of relief. For a split instant, he felt her free arm go up and around his shoulder, and he thought he felt just the slightest pressure of her hand upon his neck. In a wild burst of joy, he lifted his head and looked squarely down into those midnight eyes, while his arm tightened about her. To his utter amazement and confusion, he found himself looking into two pits of fire. Her face was flushed with anger, and her eyes were blazing, and she was pushing him away. Let me go. Let me go, I sayl Awkwardly, he helped her to her feet. She stood swaying, making him think of a reed swaying gently in the wind, her eyes locked upon his, her hand brushing at her lips, trying to rub away the kisses he had left there. You are indeed a fool, senor. You stop at nothing, like the men warn you of. It was not enough that I save your life that morning in the desert. And the story Monte told you, that meant nothing! Or perhaps you used that story to help yourself, eh? To buy de los Tres Hermanos next to nothing, for yourself. And now, just for more insult, you trick me again. You dare to kiss me!
