NINETEEN

"Don't you think we should drive a little farther?" Harriet asked. "If that doctor should get suspicious . . ."

Stone wheeled the car into the drive.

"Why should he get suspicious?"

"He'll get to thinking. He's puzzled by what happened to Shep and he'll get to wondering. After all, our story had a lot of holes in it."

"For one thought up on the moment, I thought we did real well."

"But we're only ten miles out of town."

"I'll want to go back tonight. I have to do some checking on what became of Riley's truck."

He braked the car to a halt in front of the unit marked "Office."

"Run your head into a noose, you mean," said Harriet. The man who had been sweeping off the steps walked over to the car.

"Welcome, folks," he said, heartily. "What can the Plainsman do for you?"

"Have you two connecting?"

"It just so happens," said the man, "we have. Nice weather we been having."

"Yes, very splendid weather."
