"Throw your guns on the floor!" commanded Ted.
He was obeyed.
"Gather up those guns," said Ted. Bud and Clay stepped forward, and gathered in the rifles and revolvers.
Ted's eyes were running over the group of prisoners trying to pick out Mowbray, when suddenly there was a smashing of glass, and, as he turned in that direction, he saw a form taking a flying leap through the window to the ground, and, quick as a flash, he fired and rushed to the window.
But when he got there his only reward was the sight of a man on horseback headed for the hills, swaying dangerously in his saddle.
Mowbray had escaped, but he had taken with him an unpleasant reminder of Ted Strong.
