“Well, Halfaman’s. What’s to become of them?”
“Are they at Jeddo’s still?”
“Yes.”
“Was Halfaman there when he was arrested, do you suppose?”
“I think so. I went over to the Mangan-Hatton camp directly after you rode home to-day. I left Halfaman there trying to convince Wing o’ the Crow that he hadn’t stolen the outfit. I think he intended to drive later to Stlingbloke and try to get Jeddo the Crow to come back to camp and sober up.”
“Wing-o will take good care of the stock,” Manzanita observed after a thoughtful pause. “Halfaman would have had lots of time to explain everything before they arrested him. He’ll have told her what to do before they took him away.”
“But convincing her was one of Daisy’s problems. He was worrying——”
“He needn’t have worried.”
“Why?”
Manzanita laughed. “Because Wing o’ the Crow loves him,” she made answer.
