I promised her my protection, and asked of her to keep quiet until I reconnoitred the party whom I had seen on horseback. This she promised to do ; but I had not to leave the cave to observe our pursuers, (for such they were, ) they being now in the ravine directly below us. They halted around the dead and mangled body of the negro, and after a few curses against him, departed, one of them, on picking up the piece of rope he had carried with him in his dreadful fall, observing, that he had doub...tless tried to lower himself from the brink of the precipice to the valley, and the rope breaking, caused him to fall. We continued in the cave until evening, fasting the while, for we found no provisions, as Bill had informed me we would. Just before dark, I persuaded the lady to ascend. She went up with great agility, and I followed. Making for the highway, we soon espied the mail stage, and in it she took passage for the town from which I had taken my departure the night previous. I had so stated the case to the young lady as to gain her favor, and she assured me she would keep a profound, secret the part I had taken in the matter, only mentioning the fact that I, hearing her screams, had rescued her.
