The
mustanger
put
the
question
to
himself
.
He
grew
paler
,
as
the
reply
puzzled
him
.
On
alighting
from
the
leap
,
he
had
not
paused
for
a
second
,
but
gone
galloping
on
--
as
before
,
close
followed
by
his
fugitive
companion
.
His
pace
,
however
,
was
less
impetuous
.
He
seemed
to
ride
with
irresolution
,
or
as
if
some
half-formed
resolve
was
restraining
him
.
When
about
a
score
lengths
from
the
edge
of
the
arroyo
,
he
reined
up
and
wheeled
round
--
as
if
he
had
suddenly
formed
the
determination
to
ride
back
!
"
Miss
Poindexter
!
"
he
called
out
to
the
young
lady
,
at
that
moment
just
up
with
him
.
"
You
must
ride
on
alone
.
"
"
But
why
,
sir
?
"
asked
she
,
as
she
jerked
the
muzzle
of
the
mustang
close
up
to
its
counter
,
bringing
it
almost
instantaneously
to
a
stand
.
"
If
we
keep
together
we
shall
be
overtaken
.
I
must
do
something
to
stay
those
savage
brutes
.
Here
there
is
a
chance
--
nowhere
else
.
For
heaven
's
sake
do
n't
question
me
!
Ten
seconds
of
lost
time
,
and
'
twill
be
too
late
.
Look
ahead
yonder
.
You
perceive
the
sheen
of
water
.
'
Tis
a
prairie
pond
.
Ride
straight
towards
it
.
You
will
find
yourself
between
two
high
fences
.
They
come
together
at
the
pond
.
You
'll
see
a
gap
,
with
bars
.
If
I
'm
not
up
in
time
,
gallop
through
,
dismount
,
and
put
the
bars
up
behind
you
.
"
"
And
you
,
sir
?
You
are
going
to
undergo
some
great
danger
?
"
"
Have
no
fear
for
me
!
Alone
,
I
shall
run
but
little
risk
.
'
Tis
the
mustang
.
--
For
mercy
's
sake
,
gallop
forward
!
Keep
the
water
under
your
eyes
.
Let
it
guide
you
like
a
beacon
fire
.
Remember
to
close
the
gap
behind
you
.
Away
--
away
!
"
For
a
second
or
two
the
young
lady
appeared
irresolute
--
as
if
reluctant
to
part
company
with
the
man
who
was
making
such
efforts
to
ensure
her
safety
--
perhaps
at
the
peril
of
his
own
.
