CHAPTER XXVI. 

WILD TURKEYS AND ANOTHER TRAIL. 

One day, early in February, Amos Radbury came riding back from a trip to Gonzales with news that he had heard from Carlos Martine. 

"The man has been at San Felipe," he declared, "and I have it on good authority that he intends to claim my land." 

"Well, what are ye going to do?" queried Poke Stover, who was still at the ranch. 

"I hardly know. But I wish I could have a talk with Martine. It might be the means of saving a good deal of trouble." 

"Is Martine still at San Felipe?" 

"No, Gusher told me that he had gone to San Antonio." 

"Then why not take a trip to San Antonio and find him?" suggested the old frontiersman. "I reckon that is what I would do." 

"I think you are right, Poke, and I'll start tomorrow," answered the planter. 

He went in to talk the matter over with his sons, and the land claim was the chief topic of conversation for the balance of the evening. 

"I now wish I had kept Hank Stiger here," said Mr. Radbury. The half-breed had left the ranch but three days before, apparently very grateful for the manner in which he had been treated. 

"Well, one thing is certain," declared Dan, "I don't stand for giving up the claim. I'll fight first. Those Mexican officials can do as they please, but they can't budge me." 

"Good fer Dan!" shouted Stover. "He's the kind the State o' Texas will want in days to come."  QUESTIONS:
