There were six troopers and six of us so it was a close thing, but we emptied four of their saddles at the first volley. Three of our boys were kflled, however, before we got the swag.

up, for he soon saw I was more afraid of her knowing my past than ot the police. Whatever he wanted he must have and whatever it was I gave him without question, land, money, houses, until at last he asked a thing which I could not give. He asked for Alice. "His son, you see, had grown up, and so had my girl, and as I was known to be in weak health, it seemed a fine stroke to him that his lad should step into the whole property. But there I was firm. I would not have his cursed stock mixed with mine; not that I had any dislike to the lad, but his blood was in him, and that was enough. I stood firm. McCarthy threatened. I braved him to do his worst. We were to meet at the Pool midway between our houses to talk it over. v "When I went down there I found

"Your own deathbeds, when they come will be the easier for the thought of the peace which you have given to mine." Tottering and shaking in all his giant frame, he stumbled slowly from the room.
