CHAPTER 1 UD LEE, horse foreman of the Blue Lake Ranch, sat upon the gate of the home corral, builded a cigarette with slow brown fingers, and stared across the broken flelds of the upper valley to the rosy gadilow above the pine-timbered ridge where the sun was coming up. His ecsoustomary gravity was unusually pronounced. eanc “It a man's got the hunch an ogg is bad,” he mused, “is that a real 3 good and sufficient reason why he should go poking his finger inside the “™ghell? “1 want to know!” Tommy Burkitt, the youngest wage-earner of the outfit and « profound #émirer of all that taclturnity, good-humor. and quick capability which ‘went into the make-up of Bud Lee, approached from the, ranch-house on » the knoll. “Hi, Bud!” he called. “Trevors wants you.
