Chapter 20: A HangingLorenz was on his haunches, slowly moving back and forth across the ground leading off the Rolfe ranch. Marty was a few feet behind him and leading Lorenz's gelding and his own horse. The rest of the men were mounted, but well behind them waiting for a signal to move forward. Finally Lorenz raised his arm and Marty approached and handed him the reins.
Lorenz took the reins, grateful to stand upright. He'd been on his haunches for an hour or more this morning, and a night of sleeping on Martin's sofa hadn't improved his disposition. When he, Marty, and Kendall arrived at Rolfe's headquarters, night was already falling and Martin and his men had managed to foul up the ground for yards around.
“Sorry it took so long, Martin. I'm not as good as Uncle Herman.”
