I gen'ally dress thisaway 'cept when we expect to go nigh the settlements or a ranch where we aim to visit. We was makin' for the Two-Bar-P outfit, where Grit came from when he was a bit of a pup. I expected that's where he was headin' for when I sent him off after help, but you come instead.

I was wonderin' how he come to make the ranch, said Sandy.

You see we-all bought the Two-Bar-P, though I never figgered old Samson 'ud ever own a sheepdawg. He might give one away fast enough.

Grit was sent him for a present by a man who summered at the ranch an' heerd Samson say he wanted a dawg, said the girl.
