Dillon, who had been guarding the mine en- trance, is missing, but Peterson, concludes Jerry killed himself. With a characteristic gesture, Peterson dynamites the mine entrance to seal Jerry in his tomb forever. As he flees over the mountains from Skull Val- ley, he decides to adopt the name of “Andrew Ogden,” and the career of Alex Peterson, gambler, ends.
