"Mr.Sheriff," she said, evenly; "if you will stand aside, I shall be glad to leave you." Moreton grinned, admiringly. "You've sure got a heap of nerve, ma'am," he complimented; "I'll say that for you! I don't know what your game is, but you're mighty clever--though you're wastin' your time out here in the sagebrush. You ought to stay East--where there's a lot more rummies than there is out here!" He opened the door, and bowed her out with extravagant politeness. Then, when she had gone, he motioned Lawler toward the door. |
