triumphed gloriously over his enemy,
the lawyer leaned over the aide of the
cab, to see if he might get a parting
look at Mr. Sheedy. One taunting smile
or mocking laugh would repay him
twice over for the time and money ex
pended In the trip. All at once bullets
began whizzing about his ears.
"Get down inside, you fool!" said the
engineer.
It needed no words of caution to ef
fect that, for the lawyer was already
acting promptly along the same line.
With his left hand the master of the
iron horse pulled the throttle valve till
the old engine fairly jumped. At the
same time, with his right he thrust a
Colt's revolver over the side of the en
gine, calmly remarking, "Get right
down off tnls engine, John Sheedy."
Without hesitation the gambler climbed
down and Jumped to the ground, and the
lawyer, quickly out of reach, made the
return trip without further Incident.
Weeks passed by. and the lawyer had
begun to tell the incidents of his cap
ture of the stolen teams, as a matter of
the remote past, when one day a fellow
townsman came with some excitement
Into his law office with the news: "John
Sheedy has just got off the train, and
he's looking for you." The lawyer gave
his office toy Instructions to show into
his private office anyone who should call
and retired therein. Shortly Mr. Sheedy
presented himself at the door and the
boy, as directed, showed him to the door
of the lawyer's private sanctum.
As the gambler entered the room, his
Intended victim leveled a revolver at
htm, from behind the door, saying-wlth
decision, '"Throw up your hands!"
With great reluctance Mr. Sheedy
slowly elevated his hands above his
head. He was completely taken by sur
prise; for he had not expected any such
prompt measures. After contemplat
ing him coolly for a moment, the law
yer remarked: "Well, I think I hav:
you. What are you going to do. about
it?"
The hard face of the frontiersman was
marked by some degree of mental activ
ity behind it. After a bit he said: "I'll
give it up. You've got me. If you'll let
me off this time, I'll not go gunning for
you again."
"Very well," said the lawyer, "so be
It," and he tossed his weapon to the
other side of the table. "Have a chair,
Mr. Sheedy." The gambler sat down
and the two men chatted awhile. At
length Mr. Sheedy alleged that other
pressing engagements called him away,
and shaking hands they parted.
Mr. Sheedy never again crossed the
path of the young lawyer, who outgrew
the opportunities of the small Missouri
hamlet and not many years afterwards
sought the wider field at the national
capitol. In this place he still practices, a
member of one of the foremost law firms
of Washington.
