Maybe you'll tell me about 'em--now?

Maybe I won't be able to get to camp again, he said.

Maybe we'll need 'em for another reason.

What other?

The sheriff's comin'. That woman's sent for him. I've figgered out he can't get along till 'bout to-morrow night, or the next mornin'. Anyway it don't do to reckon close on how quick a sheriff can git doin'.

The sheriff's coming, eh? Then he went on after a pause.

They're for Joan, an' me--an' you. When the time comes guess we're going where no sheriff can follow us, if you don't make trouble. I don't guess you need tellin' of the valley below us. You know it, an' you know the steps. You know the canyon away on toward Devil's Hill. That's the way we're goin'--when the time comes. An' I'd say there ain't no sheriff or dep'ties'll care to follow us through that canyon. After that we cut away north. Ther's nobody can follow our trail that way.
