“Then I’ll come around to Allan’s to-night and hear what’s happened.”
“Maybe I won’t tell Allan,” answered Pete. “Anyhow, not unless I have to. I’ll see what the coyote has to say for himself.”
“Rindgely? Oh, he’ll have plenty to say, all right. He’ll talk himself blue in the face if you let him.”
“Maybe I won’t let him,” answered Pete, grimly.
