CHAPTER VII, When Jim saw that his prisoner had sobered, he called a halt and they swung from the wagon road into the shade of a clump of cotton- woods. He eyes Pete Saba grimly. "All right, Saba--talk." "I got nothing to say, soldier." "You're going to prison for a lon time, Saba, You'll get off light i you talk. "We know you didn't plan the holdup--or the ones before it " "There weren't any before ft," Saba broke in. "This was the first." "For you maybe. But not for the masked man who led you. Who la he, Saba?" The outlaw didn't answer. 8o Jim said, "You better save yourself a couple of years. It'll be long enough." Saba's mouth worked. His eyes were scared." He said finally, his voice thick, "The other hombre is named Hank Muldane, The mask- ed man is named Phil Lawrence." Jim gave a start. "Are you sure?" Saba nodded. "I rode up to Lawrence's cattle spread some Ly 4 weeks back and -asked for a job £3 33 punching cows. But he cut me in on this holdup. He made it plain vi that he was out to get money from Sat X Steve Barron, the gambler over at Li fi .

"Give me the eameo pin you took off the woman passenger." "lI haven't got it now, soldier," Baba said. He looked uneasy. "Law- cence didn't know I had it until he caught me looking at it back in the Sarracca brakes when we made the split. He was plenty sore when he saw it, and he made me hand it over." 2 "That's the truth?" "I swear it, soldier. He to you about that." Jim nodded. He raised his arm and pointed along the south trall. "See that bayonet cactus? When you reach that I'm going to start shooting. You're an escaped' pris- oner, see?" : Saba swalloyed and nodded. * * * I wéuldn't . "You've got a fast horse," Jim told him. "Head for Mexico, and don't ever let me catch you in the Territory." Saba swung his horse about, and galloped away. Dust swirled up behind him. He reached the distant stalk of Spanish bayonet then put his nimble-footed pony into a zig- zag lope that bounded him off and on the trail dizzily. 'Jim drew his gun and opened fire. The blasts of his gun rolled away across the des- ert, but Pete Saba rode on. When Jim's gun was silent, Saba lifted his arm in farewell. Shortly, he was hidden behind a cloud of dust. Jim's face was frowning as he thrust fresh loads into his gun. He sighed heavily. He felt Mel Scar- --Jett's old eyes on him. "Curious, Scarlett?" "I didn't ask any questions, lieu- tenant." They rode on for a full five miles. Jim reined in again, and faced the scout. "I'm not telling you not to talk, Mel." "You don't need to, Jim," said the old man. "I guess we understand one an- other," Jim said. He laughed bit- terly. "A man sure makes a fool ~ of himself over a woman." Virginia had already spent four days in Santa Bonita. At first she had been eager but patient, expect- ing Phil Lawrence to appear at any time. But now, on the morning of the fifth day, she was gradually 0 headed south, He regarded Pete losing hope.
