"Daddy! Daddy!”
It might have been the tender
agony of the cry to which Patrick
Casey's dulling brain responded,”
sending the message of his wUl
along the nerves to transmit a
final summons. His body twitched,
he choked, swallowed, opened gray
eyes, filmy with death, brighten

his daughter bending over him, the
face of Sandy above her shoulder.

Then, while one hand groped wav-

of impatience, accepted the situation
philosophically as he listened to
sounds from the corral that told him
of horses being caught, and drooped
his head on the dirt, lying relaxed,
eyes closed, gaining strength against
the return trip.

As certain cattlemen mere not want
ing who had a knack of appropriating
calves and changing the brand* of
steers. Sandy had been glad enough.
In his capacity of business' manager,
to change the name of the ranch and
brand. Two-Bur-i* was too easily al
tered to H-B, U-P, U-B, O-P, or B;
a score of combinations hard to prove
as forgeries.
There had been lengthy argument
concerning the new name. Three Star,
so Soda-Water Sam—whose nicKname
was satirical—opined, smacked of the
saloon rather than the ranch, but it
was finally decided on and the brand
ing irons duly made.
Sandy Bourke had dark brown hair,
inclined to be curly, a tendency he
■offset by frequent clipping of his
thatch. The sobriquet of “Sandy” re
ferred to his grit. He was broad-
shouldered, tall and lean, weighing a
hundred and seventy pounds of well-
strung frame. His eye% were gray
and the lids sun-puckered; his deeply
tanned skin showed the freckles on
face and hands as faint inlays; his
long, limber legs were slightly bowed.
Not so the curve of Soda-Water
Sam’s legs. You could pass a small
keg between the latter’s knees with

whose last name was Manning, was
mainly distinguished by his enormous

Again It seized the tassel and
pulled, looking up Into Sandy's face
imploringly.
“Somethin’ wrong.” said the man
ager of the Three Star. “Tryln’ to
tell us about It. All right, ol’. feller,
you drink some more wateh. Let me
look at that paw.” He gently took the
foot that clawed at his chaps and ex
amined It. The paw was worn to the
quick, bleeding. “Come out of the
Bad lands,” he said, looking toward
the range. “Through Pyramid pass,
likely.”
Sandy rolled the dog on his side and
found the other pads in the same con
dition. Running his fingers beneath
the ruff, scratching gently In sign of
friendship, he discovered a leather
collar with a brass tag, rudely en
graved, the lettering worn but leg
ible.
“GRIT. Prop. P. Casey.”
“They sure named you right, son,”
he said. “We’ll ’tend to P. Casey,
soon’s we’ve 'tended to you. You

gaunt-hipped, high of riba It lay atlll,
but Its flanks heaved, catching a flush
of sun on Its dull hide.
Between the wheels of the wagon
knelt a girl In # gown of faded blue,
head hidden behind a sunbonnet. She
leaned forward in the shadow of the
wagon. Sandy caught a glimpse of
a huddled body beyond her. Grit sat
on .his haunches, head toward the
road, thrown back at each bark. Sandy
reached the ledge first. The girl did
not turn her head, though his descent
was noisy. He touched her gently on
the shoulder, telllpg himself that she
was "Just a kid."
She looked up, her face lined where
tears had laned down through the
mask of dust.' Now she was past cry
ing. Her eyes met Sandy’s pitifully;
holding neither surprise nor hope.
“He’s dead.” She seemed to be,
stating a fact long accepted. “He's
dead. An’ he made me Jtimp. You
come too late, mister.”

"Hope’s a good haws*, 4 said Sam.
“But it sure needs Luck fo’ a namin'
mate.”
“You said 1L” Sandy relapsed Into
silence.
At the fur end of the pass the dog
struggled to get down.
“I’ll let him give us a lead,’’ said
Sandy, “soon us we hit the lava. We
can fuller his’trail that fur. Sit tight,
son.” Grit whined but^subsided under
the restraining hands. . - '
Sandy took the lead, bending from
the saddle, reading the trail that Grit’s
paws had left In the alkali and sand.
Once the dog’s tracks led aside to a
scummy puddle, saucered by alkali,
dotted with the spoor of desert ani
mals that drank the hitter water in
extremity. Then it ran straight to a
wide reef of lava. .Sandy set down
the collie. Grit ran fast across the
pitted surface, ahead of the horses,
waiting for them to cross the lava.
They had hard work to get him to
come to hand again, but he gave In at
last to the knowledge that they would
not go on otherwise.
The two riders ivent silently on at
a steady walking gait.
