ped Healy rob the Noches Bank and do a
lot of other deviltry. It was just like Keller figured. The automobile
was waiting for the bunch with the showfer, and took them out the old
Fort Lincoln Road. Dixon knows where the gold is hidden, and is going to
show the boys."

"That clears up everything, then. I judge we've made a pretty thorough
gather."

Jim looked up and indistinctly saw the lovers coming slowly down through
the grove. Dusk had fallen and soon the cloak of night would be over the
mountains.

"Who is that?"

Buck did not look round. "I reckon it's Keller and his sweetheart. She
followed us here."

"I told her not to come."

"I expect she takes her telling from Mr. Keller." He changed the subject
abruptly. "We'll go on down to the boys and see what's doing. They'll be
some glad, I shouldn't wonder, at making a gather that cleans out the
worst bunch of cutthroats and rustlers in the Malpais. Don't you
reckon?"

"I reckon," answered Yeager briefly.
