CHAPTER I Game but Nervous iAD MORGAN stood with his || J I shoulders against the top rail J of the corral fence, apparently asleep on his feet. The sun had a persuasive warmth, which was good for kinks in the system. He never*could decide whether it melted or Jfaked the twinges out of him: but he knew it for an emollient of power and virtue. His figure drooped somnolently. His pipe hung loosely from a comer of his mouth. His eye? were half closed. But Dad Morgan was not asleep, nor were his half-closed eyes idle. They were watting two riders descend the slope on the far side of the wide coulee in which the ranchbuildings sprawled. There was a piebald horse ridden by a girl and a sorrel ridden by a man. They were still somewhat distant for disclosure of these details, but Dad Morgan knew who was coming. The pace of the riders was a walk, and Dad understood the meaning of it. “L-expect he’s got himself all chafed' up,” he mused. "But he'll put it on his nerves; see If he don’t. Nothin* ever happens to him regular and natural, except maybe swearin',” The riders were out upon a green level, and the piebalds horse broke into an easy lope. The sorrel followed, then checked and settled down to a restless walk. The girl in front turned in her saddle, glanced backward, brought her mount to a stop and waited. When the sorrel had come abreast the two horses wallfed again in the direction of the ranch. Dad Morgan grinned, shifted his position against the fence and began filling his pipe. He was smoking lazily when the riders came to a pause at the corralgate. The girl swung off with an easy sweep ?md waved a gauntleted hand. “Hello, Dad.” "Howdy, Sally? Hqwdy, Wreck?” The man on the sorrel made no answer, for he was engaged in a ia.sk. With both hands gripping the pommel, he raised himself In the

stirrup. tightened, his lips and scowled. TTien. very slowly, he fetched his right leg across the sorrel’s back. As he did this he flattened himself forward until the pommel burrowed Into the pit of his stomach and his arms gripped the sorrel’s'neck in a tense embrace. Then he slid crabwise to the ground. He stood there for several seconds, looking at his legs, which had retained thei**po|ture necessary to enclose the barrel of a horse. Slowly he straightened them, ohe after the other. There was a groan in his look, but he did not give it speech. He turned a savage and challenging eye In the direction of Dad Morgan. “I’m fine,” he said. “You’re lookin’ real well,” observed Dad. “Had an idea you might of got lamed up some, but I can’t say as I see any signs of it.? The rider of the sorrel stumped stiffly forward half a dozen steps. “Who—ijie? Lame? What would I get lame for?” "Come to think of it, Wreck, I’m duraed if I know. I reckon anybody who can set on a flivver for fifteen hundred miles, maybe sixteen hundred, Is kind of acclimated. Anyhow, the sheriff says ” Dad Morgan broke off at a slight, but peremptory gesture from the girl, who had opened the corral gate and was accelerating the piebald horse throergh it with a gentle flick of her quirt. She was a free, loose-limbered girl, brown in the cheeks and neck, clear and serene of eye—a girl of the open spaces and the rolling range. The wide calm of the big country somehow found its expression in Sally Morgan. But the look that went with the gesture, while it never broke the ealm, checked Dad as surely as though It had been an order from Ma herself. The rider of the sorrel watched his mount follow the piebald into the corral, then straightgfned his shoulders, set his teeth and stepped off briskly in the direction of the house. He stumbl' and once, pulled himself to gether wit l a wince and hastened

his step. Dad watched him until his figure disappeared through the doorway. “Now, I'm wonderin’ which nerves—” Sally stopped him again. “Let him alone, Dad. He’s game, anyhow.’’ “I ain’t saying anything he can hear, Sally. I'm just wonderin' which nerves is responsible. We ain’t allowed to lay it on the sorrel, or on the saddle, or on any of the failin's of human flesh. It's got to be nerves or nothin’.” "HE DON’D MIND ME CALLIN’ HIM ‘WRECK.’ ” “Well, don’t plague him about it. If he wants to blame it on his nerves, why should we care? And I don’t think he likes to have you call him ‘Wreck.’ ” Dad viewed his daughter with a glance of surprise. "He ain’t ever said so,” he remarked. “And would you expect him to? He's a guest.” “He’s payin’ eight dollars a week to Ma. I ain’t sayin’ we asked him for it. Ma didn’t want to take nothin.’ But when a man’s -payin’ he’s got the rights of free and unlimited speech. And if he don't like —” "He’s a guest just the same,” repeated Sally. “And so long as he stays here we’re under an obligation to treat him right.” “I’m treatin’ him all right, ain’t I? There ain’t a single thing about life in these wild and irreverent parts I haven’t told him, any time he asked me. Why, all I been doin’ the past two weeks Is easiri’ education into him.” Sally smiled.

! “And I’ve picked up considerable about nerves, which sort of makes it an even split,” added Dad. “He don’t mind my callin' him ‘Wreck.’ If he was goin’ to squeal about it, why would he lay claim to bein’ such? You heard him say it. ’l'm a nervous wreck,' he says, sort of/proud.” “Oh, well, don't rub it in. Dad.” “Ain't rubbin’ it in. Ain't goin’ to.” Dad looked up suddenly. “Did you say something about )|is bein’ game?’ Sally smiled again and her glance wandered to the crest of the grassy slope and seemed to go beyond it. “It sees awfully funny,” she said, “but I was scared for a minute. W T e rode over as far as the second rijlge; I wanted him to see a real piece of range country. He wouldn't admit he’d never been on a horse before. But he did pretty well, although the sorrel was getting nervous from the way his mouth was pulled.” “It’s catchin’, maybe.” “Perhaps. At any rate, we were standing there, right close to the edge, when a bee lit—on- the sorrel. You know what happened. The way he went over that horse's nead you’d have thought he’d learned to fly. If carried him oVer the edge, too, and he went down about twenty feet be fore he grabbed hold of a hush and Stopped hin’self. I thought he was going all the way.” ”1 expect you roped him?” observed Dad. “He wouldn’t let me. He got mad as fury when he saw I was going to. He said he guessed he could climb hack without any help, and he did. And he wouldn’t let me catch the sorrel, either. It must have taken him twenty minutes at least. And then it took him anothep five minutes tq get on. I can’t describe exactly the way he did it. It was like shinning up. Os course, he was pretty well scratched and mussed, and his temper was in a frightful state.” “Any language?” asked Dad. “No; he was too busy, I think. Coming home he nearly fell off twice, trying to ease himself in the saddle. But he never squealed. And he says he’s going out riding tomorrow morning. He won’t make it, though; he’ll be too lame to move.” Dad nodded with understanding. Any dude would be too lame to move under equal circumstances. Yet he was not entirely certain that the Wreck would fail to move, even though too lame; for he had a way of playing the game according to his own rules. Yl’ll put on a house dress, I believe,” said Sally. “Sure,” agreed Dad. “Bob’s here.” She pa-used for an Instant, a look

of surprise In her eyes. , “When did he come? I didn’t expect film until tomorrow morning.” ‘‘He came a whileback. He ain’t goin’ to be able to go with you tomorrow. as near as'l can make out.” Sally frowned involuntarily, then shrugged and continued her march toward the house. Dad settled back against the fence and resumed his musing. Sally would be mighty disappointed if she did not get to the train tomorrow; she was all packed and expectant. But he knew that she would not' say very much; she war not much of a hand at complaining Still, It seemed, even to Dad, that it was too bad to postpone evrything right at the last minute. H would not mind riding over with her h inself, but it was too long a trail for people with twinges and kinks, fiometimes he wished the ranch was a little mite nearer the railroad. But Sally never even complained abqpt that. There hdft been no railroad at all when Dad Morgan cagne into the range country; at least, none within a couple of hundred miles or more. Now there was a main line north of them, only about thirty-five miles on a goc * trail. It seemed very near to Dad when it first came; but when Sally began going to school In the East, and there were seasonal go-

lngs and comings, with the neoesslty of maintaining communications between city and ranch, Dad realized that it was not very close, after all. So far as he and Ma were concerned, that made no difference. But Sally had grown up, and she had an education, and she knew the ways of places far beyond the range, and -“—well. Dad understood. Still, even Sally was quite satisfied with the range country, provided she wa* not quarantined there. It was not a very lrage ranch that Dad Morgan surveyed through half-squinted *.yes, nor was it a busy one. The air of idleness was every* whehe about It; Idleness, but not cay. It was simply a -an oh taking a long and honorable rest. The busy years were behind It.
