<p>I hear theres one of Uncle Sams grayhounds going through you, and that means that well catch him inside of a couple of hours, maybe. Now, I want you to do something for me. Weve got just $2,200 in the bank, and the law requires that we have $20,000. I let Ross and Fisher have $18,000 late yesterday afternoon to buy up that Gibson bunch of cattle. Theyll realise $40,000 in less than thirty days on the transaction, but that wont make my cash on hand look any prettier to that bank examiner. Now, I cant show him those notes, for theyre just plain notes of hand without any security in sight, but you know very well that Pink Ross and Jim Fisher are two of the finest white men God ever made, and theyll do the square thing. You remember Jim Fisher—he was the one who shot that faro dealer in El Paso. I wired Sam Bradshaws bank to send me $20,000, and it will get in on the narrow-gauge at 10.35. You cant let a bank examiner in to count $2,200 and close your doors. Tom, you hold that examiner. Hold him. Hold him if you have to rope him and sit on his head. Watch our front window after the narrow-gauge gets in, and when weve got the cash inside well pull down the shade for a signal. Dont turn him loose till then. Im counting on you, Tom.</p>

<p>The major began to tear the note into small pieces and throw them into his waste basket. He gave a satisfied little chuckle as he did so.</p>
