When
they
reached
Hooven
’
s
again
,
they
found
that
the
Leaguers
had
already
taken
their
position
in
the
ditch
.
The
plank
bridge
across
it
had
been
torn
up
.
Magnus
,
two
long
revolvers
lying
on
the
embankment
in
front
of
him
,
was
in
the
middle
,
Harran
at
his
side
.
On
either
side
,
some
five
feet
intervening
between
each
man
,
stood
the
other
Leaguers
,
their
revolvers
ready
.
Dabney
,
the
silent
old
man
,
had
taken
off
his
coat
.
“
Take
your
places
between
Mr
.
Osterman
and
Mr
.
Broderson
,
”
said
Magnus
,
as
the
three
men
rode
up
.
“
Presley
,
”
he
added
,
“
I
forbid
you
to
take
any
part
in
this
affair
.
”
“
Yes
,
keep
him
out
of
it
,
”
cried
Annixter
from
his
position
at
the
extreme
end
of
the
line
.
“
Go
back
to
Hooven
’
s
house
,
Pres
,
and
look
after
the
horses
,
”
he
added
.
“
This
is
no
business
of
yours
.
And
keep
the
road
behind
us
clear
.
Don
’
t
let
ANY
ONE
come
near
,
not
ANY
ONE
,
understand
?
”
Presley
withdrew
,
leading
the
buckskin
and
the
horses
that
Gethings
and
Cutter
had
ridden
.
He
fastened
them
under
the
great
live
oak
and
then
came
out
and
stood
in
the
road
in
front
of
the
house
to
watch
what
was
going
on
.
In
the
ditch
,
shoulder
deep
,
the
Leaguers
,
ready
,
watchful
,
waited
in
silence
,
their
eyes
fixed
on
the
white
shimmer
of
the
road
leading
to
Guadalajara
.
“
Where
’
s
Hooven
?
”
enquired
Cutter
.
“
I
don
’
t
know
,
”
Osterman
replied
.
“
He
was
out
watching
the
Lower
Road
with
Harran
Derrick
.
Oh
,
Harran
,
”
he
called
,
“
isn
’
t
Hooven
coming
in
?
”
“
I
don
’
t
know
what
he
is
waiting
for
,
”
answered
Harran
.
“
He
was
to
have
come
in
just
after
me
.
He
thought
maybe
the
marshal
’
s
party
might
make
a
feint
in
this
direction
,
then
go
around
by
the
Upper
Road
,
after
all
.
He
wanted
to
watch
them
a
little
longer
.
But
he
ought
to
be
here
now
.
