CHAPTER XI "It gets rue," the guide said, "that they didn't cover their tracks. Looks like they want to be followed—and that means an ambush." "Not this time " iim said. "Natchi is playing a shrewder game. He wants to hold Miss Ames to force the release of his son." "Lieutenant, you're not going to trust an Apache?" "I'm going to play the game Natchi's way." Jim said evenly, "I'm going to get Miss Ames no matter what the stakes." The trail led deep into the moun- tains. They followed it the Whole of the next day, until the light failed. Then, the third day, follow- ing it into a broad rock-strewn can- yon they came to an abrupt dead end. It vanished on the canyon's bed of loose shale and sun -bleached rocks. Scarlett scouted in a great circle. "They jumped off into thin air, lieutenant," he said at long last. Jinn's face was bleak. "*t'e'll push on," lie muttered. Two hours later, the column rode from a deep gorge into another canyon. Scarlett. riding ahead, made a sign. Jim gave Barrett quick orders, then left the detail and rode to join the guide.

"No stranger, Me Charley. Come from Natchi. Natchi say white sol- dier get back wife .when Natchi get back son from white soldier's fort. You savvy?" "I savvy." Jim said. "Natchi say, son no come back, white soldier's wife go to Mexico. No come back" Jinn eyed the half breed narrowly, thinking what a blackguard he looked. He said, "Tell Natchi his' son will be freed. But first I must see that he has not harmed—my wife. You savvy, Charley?" * * * CHAPTER XII Gunfire racketed against the mountain stillness. The sounds came front far off among the towering rock cliffs. Suddenly the Apache camp in the furnace - hot canyon was being deserted. The dosky- skinned women were frantically gathering up belongings, children and horses for an exodus. No men were in the camp; they had ridden away in early morning. Virginia drew away from the opening of her prison hut She had seen the half breed in ragged white man's clothes appear with her sad- dled horse. A moment later he stepped into the hut, - "Come," he ordered. "You go with camp." She shrank from him. But he leapt at her and seized her arm, "Natchi say you go to Mexico. White soldiers fight. No return Natchi's son. You come—" His voice broke in a throaty sound as a man loomed behind him and struck out with a gun, The half breed collapsed under the blow. The man—Steve Barron—stepped over the fallen Apache and took Virginias arm, "Come!" His voice was urgent. "There is no time to waste!" He hurried her from the jacal. She was dazed and frightened. She saw a mounted Mexican with a rifle in his hands, warily watching the Apache women who had gathered around. Steve Barron helped her mount her horse. He swung onto his own mount, and immediately led the way aoross the canyon. No one attempted to stop them. The atm was a great red ball at the desert's rim when the three rode from a deep narrow gorge into the lowlands. Steve swung east then, pushed the lathered horses harder. Then he halted abruptly. * * * "There are the soldiers," he said, pointing into the distance, "You will be safe now, Luis and I are riding west." She looked at him with eyes that ached from the sun, "I can find no words to say how I feel, Steve," she said. "I can only say—thanks." A queer glow was in his eyes. His voice sounded weary and he talked disjointedly. "Don't thank Inc, Vir- ginia. I was to blame for what happened to you. I-1 am to blame for much that Natchi has done in this country, 1 armed his band. 1 ata a renegade. Virginia looked shocked. "I don't understand." His smile was hard. "Ambition— or rather greed—drove me, I was mad in my desire to own all of this great valley. I wanted a great etnpire for myself. I wanted the Apaches to terrorize and drive out other white men, so that I could take over their lands. I did that to Phil Lawrence—and 1 think I drove him a little mad. Whatever he did; I ata to blame. Now the soldiers know. Lanya has told them—" Virginia said, "I—I pity you." "I was wrong, I saw that when you were seized. I knew the soldiers might fail to rescue you — so I came.". He looked wistfully at her. "You will go to Lawrence now, but I think you have lost him. As I have lost Lanya. We're both going to suffer, Virginia." He swung his horse about and rode away fol- lowed by the Mexican, Virginia rode on toward the dis- tant camp. She looked back once.
