noon
He is inside the Cache this minute . You know every curve and canyon and pocket and washout in it , and every cut-throat and jail-bird in it , and they pay you blood-money and hush-money every month ; and when I ask you not to give up a dozen men the company is entitled to , but merely to send this pink-eyed lobster out with his guns to talk with me , you wash your hands of the job , do you ? Now listen . If you do n't send Du Sang into the open before noon to-morrow , I 'll run every living steer and every living man out of Williams Cache before I cross the Crawling Stone again , so help me God ! And I 'll send for cowboys within thirty minutes to begin the job . I 'll scrape your Deep Creek canyons till the rattlesnakes squeal . I 'll make Williams Cache so wild that a timber-wolf ca n't follow his own trail through it .
