At last he left them, and was making straight across to a small field where Conan Mail's horses were Digitized by VjOOQ IC THE PURSUIT OF THE GILLA BACKER. 233 grazing by themselves, intending to play the same tricks among them. But Conan, seeing this, shouted in great alarm to the Gilla Dacker, to bring away his horse, and not let him work any more mischief; and threatening, if he did not do so at once, to go himself and knock the brains out of the vicious old brute on the spot. But the Gilla ...Dacker took the matter quite cool ; and he told Conan that he saw no way of preventing his horse from joining the others, except some one put the halter on him and held him, which would, of course, he said, prevent the poor animal from grazing, and would leave him with a hungry belly at the end of the day. He said, moreover, that as he had no horse-boy, and must needs do everything for himself, he thought it quite time enough to look after his horse when he had to make ready for a journey. " But," said he to Conan, " there is the halter ; and if you are in any fear for your own animals, you may go yourself and bring him away from the field." Conan was in a mighty rage when he heard this ; and as he saw the big horse just about to cross the fence, he snatched up the halter, and running forward, with long strides, he threw it over the animal's head and thought to lead him back.
