And Terry did not heed when he was shouldered by the growing crowd around the wheel. He only knew that other bets were being placed and that it was a nuisance, for the croupier took much longer in paying debts and collecting winnings, so that the wheel spun less often. Meantime he was by no means unnoticed. A little whisper had gone the rounds that a real plunger was in town. And when men came into the hall, their attention was directed automatically by the turn of other eyes toward six feet of muscular manhood, heavy-shouldered and erect, with a flare of a red silk bandanna around his throat and a heavy sombrero worn tilted a little to one side and back on his head. He''s playing a system, said someone. Been standing there all afternoon and making poor Pedro-the thief!-sweat and shake in his boots.

Black Jack Hollis had been killed as Elizabeth Cornish watched. Recklessly, joyously, his black hair flying, Jack had ridden into town to see his infant son. Then a shotgun, fired from a window, had blasted him from his horse and flung him to his death in the street. "I want his baby. Go out and get that baby for me, Vance," the spinster Elizabeth ordered. "My dear," her brother Vance declared, "before that baby is twenty-five-that was his father's age-he'll have shot a man.
