shortly. He knew now—and cursed
himself for not having thought of it
before—why Burney had avoided
crossing into Mexico at a port of en-

gasoline and motored back toward El
Ranchito until he found the spot
where the motor convoy had left the
highway and started straight across
country in a southeasterly direction,
breaking trail through the low sage.
