As the students rushed out of the barn for a late lunch, the upperclassman cornered the old herdsman.

“What did you think about that new kid?” one asked.

The herdsman’s face twisted. “I ain’t got a clue ‘bout what we saw in the killin’ room.”

“Is that how we are supposed to do it?” the other asked.

Hopkins rubbed his jaw and spat.

“I ain’t too sure ‘bout that.”

On the road to the lunch room, the three brothers talked idly.

“What did you think about Colt Hopkins?” Jake asked.

“I like him well enough,” Charlie answered. “I have a better question for you guys. What did you think about my crazy man act?”

“With the hog? That was an act?”

Charlie grinned.

“Yeah. I still feel bad for the hog. I don’t like to kill animals, and I don’t eat a lot of meat, but Mr. Hog was going to die no matter what, so I did it. I had to let people know I’m not a guy to mess with.”

Hiram smiled. “No one missed that message, brother.”
