He, who came of a race that held vengeance above most things, looked on, seemingly unmoved.
Followed busy days on the Star Circle, during which Walt Lampson probably forgot the existence of Whitey and Injun.

It was doubtful to the boys that he even noticed them when they rode back to the ranch house, after the funeral of Buck's friend Tom.

Whatever thoughts of revenge were cherished by Walt and Buck had to be held in check while the stampeded herds were rounded up from the many-mile radius of prairie over which they had strayed.
To do this the entire force of the Star Circle was needed.

Divided into parties the men rode north, east, south, and west for a distance of about twenty miles.

Then they trailed round and round, in a great, narrowing circle that took in that wide radius, and as the cattle were met, in bunches or small herds, they were gathered and driven into a common center until they formed one great herd.
Whitey and Injun managed to go with Buck Milton's men, as Whitey liked Buck better than any of the other punchers, but the death of Tom had left Buck in a gloomy mood, and he spoke but little, either to the men or to the boys.
