“I have been wounded,” was the reply.

“When?”

“The night you boys visited me.”

“By whom?”

“I am not sure, but I think it was Don Rafael Solis.”

“That must have been the shot we heard as we were leaving that night!”

“Yes!”

“How are you now?”

“I was going to leave here tomorrow. I am afraid there is going to be an uprising against President Madero very soon.”

“What!” asked Billie. “Didn’t you know it had already broken out? Why, they are fighting all around here right now.”
