Stop, Mr. Wellesly! You can't go back over that desert alone in the night! Why, you couldn't follow the road two miles after dark! You know 'ow uncertain it is by day, and in the dark you simply can't see it at all. The desert is 'ell 'erself in the daytime, and it's worse at night.

Can we make Muletown to-night?

Didn't you hear me say I don't do no travelin' on this road at night? No, sir. I know a canyon up in the mountain a ways where there's sweet water and I'm goin' to camp there to-night. If you folks want to come with me and eat prospector's grub, all right, you're welcome.

Thank you, pard, said Haney.

For my part, I'll be glad to get it. You'd better come too, Mr. Wellesly. It will be sure death, of the sort we've been talking about this afternoon, for you to start back alone.
human
You're right, said Wellesly.

I'll go with you.
