L. S. Lucas Scythe? It was her uncle’s brand. Her throat tightened. Elmer’s horse had once belonged to Lucas, just as she’d thought.

A taste of fear rose in her throat as she kept looking at the mare that Lucas had called Lady. She took a deep breath. How had Elmer gotten the mare? Gaping at the horse, memories of Lucas riding the animal filled her mind, and all her old terrors returned like a flood. Honor gazed back at the boardinghouse. She’d tried to put Lucas out of her mind, but no matter what she did or how brave she pretended to be, her uncle was always just a thought or a bad dream away.

Honor wanted to go to Elmer’s room without delay, to find out how and where he’d gotten the mare, to see if he could tell her something about Lucas.

She glanced at the tray on the barrel. First, she would need to take Jeth’s lunch to him. Then she would go to Elmer’s room and find out what he knew.

Beyond the wooden gate, Jeth was repairing fences in the pasture. The ground looked hard and unyielding, still half frozen from the recent snow, as Honor unfastened the hook and opened the gate. Jeth, working in the far corner of the property, turned, waved and started toward her. Honor waved in return and carried the lunch tray to a level spot under a big oak tree. She spread out the checkered cloth on the cold ground and began unpacking the food.

“Well, hello,” Jeth panted, towering over her, his face shining with perspiration. “Is that fried chicken I smell?”

She nodded. “Your mother told me you like it. But I can’t understand why you like picnics on a cold day like this.”
