The Trail Horde

CHAPTER XXVI
4/7

I'd got 'em, an' started back with 'em--easin' 'em down that little gully near the river--an' bein' plumb out of sight from the shallow--when I seen a trail herd comin'-- _west_! "Lawler, I watched 'em.

I seen 'em cross the river, still headin' west, easin' off a little to the south.

They was above me, an' they was a glow in the north, behind 'em--an' they stood out plain an' clear.
