Phil unhitched and staked the
horses. • The blackhaired man
gathered dry wood and 1't a, fire.
Anne strolled up' the. creek. When
she returned twenty minrites later,
Rufe ' was busy with. the •coffee
and the ..flapjacks
"Come and get it, Miss Anne,"
he called presently.
Perhaps it •was because the
:Tong drivein the sunand the wind
had' sharpened ' Anne's appetite
!that the food tasted .so good. She
thought she had never; enjoyed a
meal more, and she ' said so more
than once.
Though she did not talk much
herself,• she drew out the men to
keep up a lively conversation,
most of it contributed, by Rufe.
He told. •of roundups, of night

ing in cold drizzling rain on wet
and soggy ground. Jelks had the
gift of making his story vivid,
and ranch dances, .battles . with.,
rustlers, herds crossing bank full
rivers, -rose to life at the call of
her imagination. Silcott's name
cameinto .one of his stories.
"Yes, ma'am. A&Las Vega.
