OBERTA came to in Don Jaime's arms beside the water hole. o “Well, Jimmy,” she murmured back in the sheep " he assured her soi- : “Any casualties, “Yes. ‘Three dead horses and two ‘wounded. Hobart’s pinked, but nothing worse than what he's been used to. Adolfo de Haro, one of my riders, is dead, and Lambert, O'Grady and Mar- tinez Trujillo are badly hurt, but I do not think they will die. Julio Ortiz has lost a little finger. Dingle and nine of his men are dead to date and the final returns from the river should make the affair unanimous . Fraser, Juan Espinosa and Julio Ortiz are fol- lowing them. They took our mounts. And now I'll have to get busy, load our ‘wounded on Dingle's chuck wagon and g0 _home.” | " that his chuck wagon in the be your Uncle Tom's, 50 I presume it’s yours now.

Then when the firing started out on the sheep, Dingle got cold feet. You rode through quite a bar- rage, sweetheart, but once you'd topped the corral they figured I had reinforce- ments, 80 they ran for their horses and rode south—that is, some of them did. I climbed upon the wagon seat and fanned their rear. As they fled down the south side of the valley they bump- ed into Ken and Jullo, who emptied two saddles each. Do you know, dar- ling, that you have a pistol bullet through the muscles of your back, rather well on the right side? Nothing fatal, but you'll sleep on your left side for a month!” Roberta murmured “I'm & fool,” weakly. “Yes, but a gallant little fool.” “Are you hurt, Jimmy?" “Not a scratch.” She raised her left arm and curled 4t around his neck; he lowered his face until his cheek touched hers. “You're " she whispered. “But you love me, just the same?” “Yes, but I wouldn’t have told yeu— T'd have died first. It's all due to Ken Hobart. He told me—" “Hush, sweetheart. He's confessed. He told you a few of the most won- derful lies on record, and when he found you'd been hit he cried like a THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, “Giddap,” yelled Don Jaime, and the wagon rolled away up the valley into a long draw that wound between the hills and eventually led them out to | where the car waited, Here he trans- | ferred his wounded—Lambert, O'Grady and Martinez Trujillo—on the rear seat, with Ken Hobart on the front | seat.
