FIFTEEN WESTERN TALES TITHOUT thinking, like a man gripped in the icy clytch of a horrible nightmare, the Judge kept shooting. Vaguely he felt the heavy thud of bullets hitting him. There was blood. A man doubling up there on the floor, twisting. Pete Enright on, his feet, his big hands smashing down two blood-spattered men, kicking guns from their hands. Then the There was a smear of red that turned to black- ness. , When he os he was laid out on a card table. Big Péte Enright was work- ing over him with a basin of water and a bar towel. Other men stood around. “Bring him a drink, one of you,” called Pete, who was battered and_ bleeding. “Whiskey !” The Judge shook his head. Pete En- right followed the dying man’s gaze to that Injun List. Then he knew. All of a sud- den he knew. Without being told he knew the thing he had done to this little old swamper who had saved his life. Pete Enright walked behind the bar and took down the Injun List. He went back to the table where the Judge lay. With his blood-smeared hands he marked off that name, ‘““The Judge,” from the head of the list. The Judge smiled and nodded. The look of despair was gone from his eves now. In the lamplight the lines on his face softened. Happiness was written there. Then the weary lids closed. The Judge was off the Tnjun List for keeps. . oo & INVEST IN * BU us x SECURITY Ccomicbooks.com
