THE FINAL TOUCH OF TRAGEDY On the day announced, at about eleven in the morning, two automobiles reached Don Luis's home.

Besides the mine owner the cars contained nine other travelers, all Americans.
These were the investors who were expected to buy _El Sombrero_ at a price of two and a half million dollars.
Over at the camp Tom and Harry saw the party arrive.

They could see the travelers being served with refreshments on the veranda.
"There's the crowd, Harry.

And here's a car, coming this way, undoubtedly for us.

Now, we've got to go over there for our first practice as bunco men." Harry Hazelton made an unpleasant grimace.
