summary:
  He could not bear the idea of spending something like a thousand dollars in taking himself, little Ned and Nellie, and their devoted old nurse, Irish Kate, by that long and expensive route. Pike moved out to the edge of the timber, where he could hear the last of it--a big anxiety welling up in his heart and a world of responsibility with it; but he clutched his carbine the more firmly and gave a backward glance, his face softening as his eyes fell upon the wagon where little Ned and Nell lay sleeping, and darkening with menace and suspicion as he took one swift look at Manuelito, cowering there over the fire.

  I feel sure that mother has been killed, for the valley was full of Indians, and I know that there were but few men at home. I thought you must be a stranger even before I observed your dress, for street frays are not uncommon in this town, whereas in other ports there are scores of men ready for any villany, and few of my people would care to interfere in a fray in which they have no interest.

summary:
  The chief object of the troops will be to capture or destroy any band of hostile Apache Indians found in this section of country, and to this end the most vigorous and persistent efforts will be required of all officers and soldiers until the object is accomplished. PREFACE The initial idea of the compilation of this work was to give the reading public an authentic record of the private life of the Apache Indians, and to extend to Geronimo as a prisoner of war the courtesy due any captive, _i. e._, the right to state the causes which impelled him in his opposition to our civilization and laws.

  The money with which the soldiers at Fort Havens and several other posts were paid came down by express from Sante Fe over this road, in charge of a proper escort, and the coach which started from that city with little Ned Chadmund carried also one hundred thousand dollars in crisp, crackling greenbacks stowed away in the bottom of the vehicle. Is there much show for ever saving the skulp of little Ned? His brother hunter looked into the fire for several minutes, with a very serious expression upon his countenance.

  At last Don Torribio answered in husky tones: You have given me twenty-four hours; I demand forty-eight to come to my determination. Don Fernando and his friend, as we have related, left the hacienda a little before Don Torribio.

summary:
  At such times the taunts and exultation of the victors would sometimes give rise to a quarrel; knives would be drawn and brandished, and a bloody fight seem imminent, but the Yau-pa-sai-na, or Indian policemen, would usually succeed in quelling the disturbance before much harm could be done. Being unskilled in the use of a hoe, I bruised myself severely, for, instead of breaking the soil, I came down with full force on my own limbs and feet; at such times a groan of agony would escape me, which, instead of eliciting sympathy, would only excite laughter.

  To do her justice, it should be said that Miss Wren had striven valiantly against the impulse,--had indeed mastered it for several hours,--but the sight of the vivid blush, the eager joy in the sweet young face when Blakely's new striker handed in a note addressed to Miss Angela Wren, proved far too potent a factor in the undoing of that magnanimous resolve. All Sandy knew that Punch had no other rider than pretty Angela Wren.

  On a day when the mercury registered 120 degrees, Felipa Landor drove into the camp. It had been when he had first learned that Felipa Landor had gone East for two years; and the Mexican had been very young and very pretty, also very bad.

  There, all alone, was Willett, writing, and to Willett Archer told the message of the feather, and of Harris's eagerness to find 'Tonio at once. This was why, within the week that followed their mission in quest of ice, three Indian scouts that were still casuals at Almy, set forth eastward, full panoplied for the field, with little Harris at their head.
