“Where’s your friend?”

There was apprehension in the question of the trapper, or he would not have called Nat, as he had never called him before. The question was asked, too, the instant I appeared.

“I cannot tell,” I answered, seating myself gloomily.

“Was it he who shot?”

“It sounded like his gun, although I am not positive that it really was.”
