At daybreak Bowdrie rolled out of his bunk and poured water from a wooden bucket into a basin and bathed his face and hands. He threw out the water and refilled the bucket at the well.

He wiped the dust from his boots and the silver spurs given him long ago by a Mexican he had befriended. He dug a fresh shirt from his pack and donned it, a black-and-white-checked shirt. He wore a black neckerchief and black pants. He checked his Colts, returned each to its holster, and taking up his Winchester, he went outside.

“Better have some breakfast,” Cassidy suggested as he walked past, headed for the corral.

Tom Katch was alone at the table when Bowdrie went inside. Katch was a big man, six-feet-four and weighing a good two hundred and thirty.

“If there’s anything we can do, let us know. Cassidy is a good man on a trail and he likes a fight, but all of us are ready to take a hand if we’re needed.”

Katch talked while Bowdrie ate, sitting with a cup of coffee over the remains of his breakfast. “That Mexican you spoke of? Did he have a name?”

“We didn’t have a name,” Bowdrie said, “just a description. He was a horse thief who got caught and killed a man.” He was making up the story as he went along, not wanting to tip his hand too much. “I can’t bother with him now. This ambush is the important thing.”
