No Jerry was in sight. Evidently as soon as real trouble started the men had decided it was better for Jerry to keep out of it.,Half paralyzed with astonishment Billy went with the Doctor to the Sheriff’s office; but he was out and the deputy didn’t know when he would return; thought it might be within an hour or so.
