Chapter Seven An Unexpected Blow Fp spite of her exhaustion and loss, Kay slept well. As she met Ted Gaynor at the corral the next morning, life seemed vaguely ex- citing and full of promise. Ted had Flicker saddled and waiting for her, and a few min- utes later they were pounding across the open bench cf the mesa toward Red River. “Was Seth pe when you turned up last night?” Kay glanced bver at Ted with that strange feel- that she had never seen him before. It seemed incredible that he was the desperate man she had encountered yesterday. His whole bearing had changed, and . he seemed years younger. “He certainly - was,” Ted-an- swered with a laugh, “but eaadle the best of it.” ae “IT fixed things up this mornin so that he'll know what to say i Tom Runyon shov:s up.” “Did you think Runyon. sus- pected anything?” Ted asked after a pause. “He did at first,” Kay answered frankly, “but I think he got over it.” ““To think you'd do that for me, and then come home to find your renew it?” ‘Dart Steéle looked trom Kay's bright face ‘to'the icy, and his eyes clouded.

And the rani is mor for $20,000.” “But we've always met the in- terest,” Kay protested. “Why can’t it stay just ‘way, it is?” “With present twenty thousand is a A bigger mortgai an the rei Patent he anewe “So the bi will insist on thateten thousand being used to red nit” “PUT that’s plain robbery!
