He had noticed that the Belknap A
Corbel man. who had rtddeu In the

limp, and as John and tha tender d art

“ Jim. ain’t they making a run from

"N o ; had trouble In the yards," the
tender said.

That was agreeable to the stranger.
A mile out of the crossing, as they
rolled through the twilight towards
timber on the horizon, his passenger
put a band on John’s shoulder and
asked;
"Would you shut her off s minute?
I got something to talk about.”
John threw off the switch; the mo

stop, there In the solitude of snow-
blanketed choppings.
"Mr. Steele.” the passenger said,
“ the sheriff told me about your Are. I
heard him talking to the train crew
about It and how he thinks that the

drunk and set the place off trying to

He paused.
“ I try to be ■ decent citizen. I try
to be loyal to the man that hires and
pays me. But I like horses. . . . I

Something dogged about him then.
“ What I've got to say Is this: that

deserve loyalty; he don't deserve
anything but the worst be can

what I know.

He ended with a grim nod.

"Thnt’s what they had!" the other
whispered.
John swore softly.
“ We knew R was set." he said.
"We're keeping s till: we're going to try

what you've told me. his Job would

The other hesltnted, then twisted Ids

“ I will," he promised. “ I don’t like

“ I understand.
