Johnny Blossom bowed himself out and Madame Bakke watched him as long as he was in sight. With that he disappeared into the house. When he reported to the Chief he found that all danger was past and the gang at work making a permanent repair of the damage..

“I know,” put in Bob. “I didn’t have a mother either. At least, it was so long ago I can hardly remember her.” “A whole heap. It seems that the talk was in town that the lid was going to blow off down at the border and that if they could get the Greasers riled up on the dam, the trouble would not be laid to them but simply on the general[170] bad blood between the Mexicans and Americans.
