Excerpt: ...to the ground in the arroyo which had been the scene of the battle with the coyotes. The girl could not help giving an involuntary shudder as she thought of the narrow escape they had had on that occasion. But in the light of the other and more serious menace which now hung over them like a storm cloud, the adventure with the wild beasts faded into insignificance.

And then, like his senior, he, too, was struck by Peggy's anxious look. "What's the trouble, sis; bad news?" he asked. "Anything happened?" demanded Jimsy.
