16 **'Thank God!” came from the lips of Gerald ranger, as be saw father and daughter thus folded in each other’s arms. Then, at a yell from Big-Foot, he joined the remainder of the party; Warnona remaining with the old ranchb- ero and Gracie. ““Dang my dogs, an’ cuss my cats! Es Old Rocky °’u’d sling bit,” burst out the giant scout; “ther bull herd hey stampeded, an’ ther reds air flat-footed, fur from hum, an’ sufferin’ from billiousness! ‘“Thar’s no use ter foller’em. They’ve tuck ter ther bush, an’ air skutin’ towards ther Pecos et a cyclors stampede. ‘* Wonder who run ther critters off?” This last was said, as the whites, with the Waco chief, returned to the tree. ‘‘Warnonaand White Chief stampede. Horses stampede. Mulessiampece. Apache mustangs stampede, Waugh! It is good, ‘Apache squaws sit in ashes two moons, Many death-yells‘on Rio Medina.” Wild Wolf gazed with pride upon his squaw, as he spoke, and added: ‘*Waugb! Warnona, Waco squaw, Wild Wolf’s squaw. ee brave. Good on war- path. Heap good. Waugn!”’ Gerald sprung to the earth, and Gracie dis- engaged herself from her father, and torew her- self, sobbing, upon his breast.

Then, as several ran- cheros arrived, eager for revenge, the giant scout led them on the trail; succeedingin slay- ing Black Wolf and nearly all his remaining foilowers. Captain Greene, with his daughter and War- nona, returned to the devastated home on Cot- tonwood creek, and the bodies of their mur- dered ones reveived Christian burial. Upon the return of Gerald Granger from the war-trail, he invited the captain and Gracie to his father’s ranch; Wild Wolf and Warnona also accompanying the young scout to his home. The etd Spa met and rebuilt Greene’s Ranch soon efter, and, as the stolen berds were re- covered, the estate remained much as formerly. Put Captain Greene was henceforth a broken- down man; sitting most of bis time by the elus- ter of graves beneath the moss-draped branches of the timber. These hid forever from his view the wife and children who had been so brutally butchered before his eyes. Gerald and Gracie were wedded a year after tha startling events we have recorded—events whici are true in every particular; the writer having oft listened to the recital of the same from the lips of Gerald Granger, the young scout. And not only from him, but from Grace Granger, nee Greene; at whose pleasant ranch one might often meet the faithful red friends of a Grangers—\¥Varnona, and her warrior hus- and, WILD WOLF, THE Waco.
