He had not ridden into the town's stain street when suddenly out of the darkness a mounted ratan sprang into the road. He swung his horse across •the nar- row trail which led into the long street, blocking it, flat E1 Ciel( hnd been long and patiently trained for 51101 such an encounter as this. With amazing suddenness the mount reared. One of Valdez' arms went out, the hand holding something that for a mo- ment showed crimson in the faint moonlight -another great scarlet neckerchief, The neckerchief whipped about the pistol in the astounded guard's hand. It was tut'( front his grasp and, before lie knew what was happening, the barrel of the pistol that had jump- ed into the red-haired malls other hand crashed against the guard's head. He slumped crazily from his saddle into the dust of the trail. Valdez lifted his reins as he dropped -the handkerchief -covered gun of the outlaw guard into his pocket, and the blue roan spurted ahead. "Madre (le Dios!" gritted EI 1 ;did Ion, Rojo. "Strangers must certainly get a cordial greeting in this town!" * a * He swung into the street and noted that at the edge of the town were the inevitable 'dobe shacks that trimmed the outskirts of all such small Western towns. Most of the houses were dark, for the peons must he no and at work by daybreak, and usually sou11111 their beds early. Cautiously El Caballero slowed down before the white -plastered walla of the Garvin pace. Dis- mounting in the blackest shadows some distance from the sprawling, pretentious dwelling in the center of its patio, he trailed 1;1 Cielo's reins and stole toward the gate facing the street. Garvin's house and patio were completely enclosed by high walls,. to which only the big gate facing the street, and a smaller one in the rear, gave entry, And the four hlnrkhuuses Which Juanita had de- scribed gave the whole place the effect of a fortified castle. From one corner blockhouse carte sounds of raucous singing and the twanging of a guitar, punc- tuated by hoarse laughter. No one wag in sight. .o W. * It looked like a good chance to slip in through the gate, for El Caballero Rojo could make out in the dint light that it had not been locked, but stood ajar a few inches, But even as his eerie, glittering figure reached it, a man leaped out to block it. I,iice a silver -decorated v.ra.ith, the (tasked man dived at the guard. Instantly his stronger fin- gers found the fellow's throat and cut off his warning shout. Once more the red-headed avenger's pis- tol barrel cracked on bone, and once more a ratan sank to the ground and lay quiet, With noiseless footsteps til Ca- ballero slid into the patio. Across the courtyard was Gar - vin's two and a half story house. A swift glance told Michael Val- dez that the one-story addition at one end of the house was Gar - vin's office, or "bank" as the land hog preferred to call it, And a light fanning out frotn the one window facing the courtyard an- nounced Raymond Garvin's pres- ence there, The time had cosec( Michael Vadez faded into the first open doorway in sight with no more stir than would have been made by a breath of night He found himself itt a long corridor, and at its end saw a iight staining through a transom from the office door that opened into the con- (To Be Contlnucd) TABLET TALKS ...
