removed the scarlet handkerchief, •
revealing his face.
The than before hint did not ex-

Never would he forget that ca-

pale brown lines over discolored
vulpine teeth, the ratan the youth
of eighteen had instantly pictured
when he had heard his father whis-

of continued brutality had not
dealt lightly with this ruthless

But one thing had not changed
--leis love of gold. Even believ-.
ing himself alone, his movements
were quick and furtive as he fin-

Once his clumsy trick at trying
to outwit El Caballero Rojo had
backfired, Raymond Garvin had no
choice. It was obey or be killed.
The muzzle of the gun that bored
into Garvin's back sent shivers
down. Itis spine,
Trembling iu every limb, a ruth-
less mail gone cowardly when his
own skin was menaced, he brought
out what he was ordered to produce,
under the watchful eyes behind the
steady gull. A heavy bag of coins
was plopped on the floor, then
stacks of currency, 'then the long
reaching arnl, exploring the safe,
brought out a stack of folded papers

in fury as he threw the last of the

Valdez snapped. "Now dig out that

Garvin reluctantly did 15 he was
ordered, and the titan holding the
t;un on hint took one hand to pick
till the box and lay it on the desk
beside the other loot. Garvin got
waveringly to his feet and turned
to face the red-headed menace,
"You don't think you're going to

burst out furiously, "You won't!
