By VICTOR ROSSEAU CHAPTER 'XIII SYNOPSIS Dave Bruce, out of a Job, sr - rives at Wilbur Ferris' Cross - Bar ranch. Curran, the foreman, promises him a Job 1f he can break a horse called Black Dawn. When he succeeds, he discovers Curran expected the horse to kill him. A girl named -Lois rides up, angry with Dave for breaking "her" horse. She refuses to speak to Dave even when he uses his savings to pay off the mortgage on the small r'an'ch she shares with her foster father, a man named Hooker, When Hooker Is killed by a shot fired through the window, Lois has Dave arrested for murder. Encouraged by Cur- ran, the local people have broken Into the Jall and dragged Dave to a tree where they are going -to hang him. Among the crowd Dave Bees Lois. Disheveled, the clothes almost • tore from the upper part of his body, Dave was thrust forward. "Here y'are, Miss Lois," shout- ed Curren: exultantly.. "Here's the measly slunk who killed yore dad, 1MM Mab 44:1 A man leaped from a horse's back and led it forward. Dave knew the procedure. The horse would be driven from beneath him, and he would be left swing. Ing—the most painful form of hanging, since it took a man per- haps a full half -minute before he became unconscious. But Lois droveher horse for- ward. "Let Iglu ride Black Dawn," she cried. "He broke him, didn't he?" Curran burst into a roar of laughter. "That's sure smart of yuh, Miss Lois," he cried. "Yeah, he broke Black Dawn, and Black Dawn's goin' to break hiin—by the neck!" W 8 4 Lois bent forward and whispered in the stallion's ear, then- slipped to the ground. "Git hila up, fel- lers," chortled Curran. "Bruce, yore race is run, and yo're goin' to do some real fancy high-steppin' tangos. Say, ain't yule got no hal- ter on that hawse, Miss Lois?" he continued. "Ile 'doesi't need a halter. He'll stand till I give the word to go." Curran roared with glee. "That's "WI ain't got nothing to say?" sneered Curran. and yo're goin' to have the honor cf touchin' hint off, accordin' to custom." Dave straightened himself and looked straight into the girl's face. He didn't want to die, but he had fucell death too many times to flinch from it now that his time scented to have come. But through his mind old Hooker's 'words were netting: "You promised me you'll look out for Lois if anything happens to me." Those words, cut off by the roar of the explosion from the as- sassin's revolver, And, "She never had a chance, poor 1r10." Somehow it seemed to Dave that he could go more easily if Lois believed he was not old Hooker's murderer. The girl was looking straight back at 1117u. in the darkness Dave Could see the dark gray pools of her eyes, as if -lit by an inner fire. Someone produced a rope and flung it over the bough. Rough hands laid hold of Dave and fas- tened the other end about hie neck, fashioning a hangman's knot. Dave had ceased to struggle. He would go to his death at least with dignity. "Git one of them broncs!" shouted Curran. sure some hawse," he shouted, "Keep outer his way when he does pit to morin', fellers, because he'll move fast and quick. Fork this hombre accost him!" A little cautiously, for tate repu- tatiou.el the black stallion was known to all, the group that held Dave -dragged him to Black Dawn's side and raised him, forcing one leg across and thrusting the too of the boot into the stirrup. But Black Dawn stood like a graven image, utterly motionless, save for a trembling of his flanks. Dave wondered, incongruouely enough, why they hadn't hound his arms. Then ha renlelubered. A strangling elan claws instinc- tively at the rope by which he is suspended, prolonging tbo agonies of death and increasing the am- usement that his hanging offers. u M 0 Dave sat the black stallion dis- dainfully, making no attempt at resistance. But again he sought Lois' eyes, and again he saw the girl's eyes fixed of his. And all Of a sudden it seemed to him as if a triple understanding had been effected—between himself end the girl and the big horse. He felt that Black Dawn recognized his mus. tery of him, "We're just about ready, Miss Lois," shouted Curran.
