A sandy complex. foned young man with red eyelids and no lashes presently emerged from the stable and came toward him, his mouth sagging loosely open, his eyes vacuous. The youth's eyes became fixed upon the guitar and mandolin cases roped on top of Sunfish’s pack, and he pointed and gobbled someghing which had the sound of speech with out being intelligible. Bud made nothing of the jumble and rode off to the cabin, leading Sunfish after him. He heard sounds within the cabin, but no one appeared until he shouted “Hello? twice.
