The Port of Missing Men

CHAPTER XXIII
3/13

How did you get here, and what do you propose doing, now that you are here?
I am in a hurry and have no time to waste.

If I can't get anything satisfactory out of you within two minutes I'm going to chuck you back into the sack." "I came up here in the hills to look for you--you--you--! Do you understand ?" began Claiborne angrily.

"And as I was riding along the road about two miles from here I ran into three men on horseback.

When I stopped to parley with them and find out what they were doing, they crept up on me and grabbed my horse and put that sack over my head.

They had mistaken me for you; and they brought me here, into your house, and pulled the sack off and were decidedly disagreeable at finding they had made a mistake.
