Besides
,
they
had
seen
the
great
dog
,
which
Diaz
remembered
to
be
his
.
The
staghound
had
sprung
forward
in
the
midst
of
the
struggle
,
and
with
a
fierce
growl
attacked
the
assailant
--
though
it
had
not
needed
this
to
accelerate
their
retreat
.
Fast
as
their
horses
could
carry
them
,
they
rode
through
the
bottom
timber
;
and
,
ascending
the
bluff
by
one
of
its
ravines
--
not
that
where
they
had
meant
to
commit
murder
--
they
reached
the
level
of
the
upper
plateau
.
Nor
did
they
halt
there
for
a
single
second
;
but
,
galloping
across
the
plain
,
re-entered
the
chapparal
,
and
spurred
on
to
the
place
where
they
had
so
skilfully
transformed
themselves
into
Comanches
.
The
reverse
metamorphosis
,
if
not
so
carefully
,
was
more
quickly
accomplished
.
In
haste
they
washed
the
war-paint
from
their
skins
--
availing
themselves
of
some
water
carried
in
their
canteens
;
--
in
haste
they
dragged
their
civilised
habiliments
from
the
hollow
tree
,
in
which
they
had
hidden
them
;
and
,
putting
them
on
in
like
haste
,
they
once
more
mounted
their
horses
,
and
rode
towards
the
Leona
.
On
their
homeward
way
they
conversed
only
of
the
headless
horseman
:
but
,
with
their
thoughts
under
the
influence
of
a
supernatural
terror
,
they
could
not
satisfactorily
account
for
an
appearance
so
unprecedented
;
and
they
were
still
undecided
as
they
parted
company
on
the
outskirts
of
the
village
--
each
going
to
his
own
jacalé
.
"
Carrai
!
"
exclaimed
the
Coyote
,
as
he
stepped
across
the
threshold
of
his
,
and
dropped
down
upon
his
cane
couch
.
"
Not
much
chance
of
sleeping
after
that
.
Santos
Dios
!
such
a
sight
!
It
has
chilled
the
blood
to
the
very
bottom
of
my
veins
.
And
nothing
here
to
warm
me
.
The
canteen
empty
;
the
posada
shut
up
;
everybody
in
bed
!
"
Madre
de
Dios
!
what
can
it
have
been
?
Ghost
it
could
not
be
;
flesh
and
bones
I
grasped
myself
;
so
did
Vicente
on
the
other
side
?
I
felt
that
,
or
something
very
like
it
,
under
the
tiger-skin
.
Santissima
!
it
could
not
be
a
cheat
!
"
If
a
contrivance
,
why
and
to
what
end
?
Who
cares
to
play
carnival
on
the
prairies
--
except
myself
,
and
my
camarados
?
Mil
demonios
!
what
a
grim
masquerader
!
"
Carajo
!
am
I
forestalled
?
Has
some
other
had
the
offer
,
and
earned
the
thousand
dollars
?
Was
it
the
Irlandes
himself
,
dead
,
decapitated
,
carrying
his
head
in
his
hand
?
