He
’
s
acting
for
some
Indian
Famine
Relief
Committee
—
lot
of
women
people
up
in
the
city
—
and
wanted
a
whole
cargo
.
I
made
a
deal
with
him
.
There
’
s
about
fifty
thousand
tons
of
disengaged
shipping
in
San
Francisco
Bay
right
now
,
and
ships
are
fighting
for
charters
.
I
wired
McKissick
and
got
a
long
distance
telephone
from
him
this
morning
.
He
got
me
a
barque
,
the
’
Swanhilda
.
’
She
’
ll
dock
day
after
to
-
morrow
,
and
begin
loading
.
”
“
Hadn
’
t
I
better
take
a
run
up
,
”
observed
the
superintendent
,
“
and
keep
an
eye
on
things
?
”
“
No
,
”
answered
S
.
Behrman
,
“
I
want
you
to
stop
down
here
,
and
see
that
those
carpenters
hustle
the
work
in
the
ranch
house
.
Derrick
will
be
out
by
then
.
You
see
this
deal
is
peculiar
.
I
’
m
not
selling
to
any
middle
-
man
—
not
to
Fallon
’
s
buyer
.
He
only
put
me
on
to
the
thing
.
I
’
m
acting
direct
with
these
women
people
,
and
I
’
ve
got
to
have
some
hand
in
shipping
this
stuff
myself
.
But
I
made
my
selling
figure
cover
the
price
of
a
charter
.
It
’
s
a
queer
,
mixed
-
up
deal
,
and
I
don
’
t
fancy
it
much
,
but
there
’
s
boodle
in
it
.
I
’
ll
go
to
Port
Costa
myself
.
”
A
little
later
on
in
the
day
,
when
S
.
Behrman
had
satisfied
himself
that
his
harvesting
was
going
forward
favourably
,
he
reentered
his
buggy
and
driving
to
the
County
Road
turned
southward
towards
the
Los
Muertos
ranch
house
.
He
had
not
gone
far
,
however
,
before
he
became
aware
of
a
familiar
figure
on
horse
-
back
,
jogging
slowly
along
ahead
of
him
.
He
recognised
Presley
;
he
shook
the
reins
over
his
horse
’
s
back
and
very
soon
ranging
up
by
the
side
of
the
young
man
passed
the
time
of
day
with
him
.
“
Well
,
what
brings
you
down
here
again
,
Mr
.
Presley
?
”
he
observed
.
“
I
thought
we
had
seen
the
last
of
you
.
”
“
I
came
down
to
say
good
-
bye
to
my
friends
,
”
answered
Presley
shortly
.
“
Going
away
?
”
“
Yes
—
to
India
.
”
“
Well
,
upon
my
word
.
For
your
health
,
hey
?
”
“
Yes
.
”
