The other the one up at my place is Collins, your top Hayhook hand, Barnes." "I'll still hear what Collins has to say," Barnes answered. "We'll take the sheriff up to Lost Canyon, identify the calves," the Colonel broke in. "Then come by and talk to Collins. Dont say anything about having Collins. I dont want the sheriff to know It yet We'll let on like Collins escaped, help the sheriff hunt around the river for him. "We'U be over at midnight to get him. There are trees on the Hayhook that have been decorated before. Guess they grew there Just for hanging cow thieves." The old rancher stalked out, followed by his foreman. Bentley hesitated, as if he intended to speak to Monnle, then walked through the door. A hundred thoughts raced through the girl's mind. She ran after Bentley. "Wait Mike! ITl go with you."
