"You're right," shouted Ted. "Into your saddles, boys; we're off to the
Hole in the Wall at once."
CHAPTER XXXV.
"HOLE IN THE WALL."
"Kit, you will stay and take care of the herd," said Ted, just before
the boys galloped off.
"All right, but I'd mighty well like to go with you," said Kit, who,
although he was eager to be in the fight that he knew would come off if
Ted found that Shan Rhue had anything to do with the abduction of
Stella, was not one to get disgruntled.
Ted would have been well pleased to have Kit with him, but Kit's arm was
not yet well enough to risk in a possible rough-and-tumble adventure.
"Say, Ted," Kit called after the leader of the broncho boys.
"What?" asked Ted, riding back.
"Don't you think you better take Stella's pony, Magpie, along with you?
She'll have to have something to ride coming back."
He did not say "if you find her," for he knew that if she was anywhere
in the Wichita Mountains Ted would find her.
"Glad you spoke of it," said Ted.
It did not take long to rope the magpie pony and throw Stella's saddle
on it.
