Excerpt from Troubled Waters
Flinging himself down beneath a tree, he drew a deep breath of content. Roving eyes swept the open pasture adjoining, the blue sky with its wester ing sun ready to sink behind a crotch of the hills. His blinking lids closed sleepily, and Opened again while he nestled closer to the ground and pillowed a dusky head'on an arm. He had slept only two hours the night before.
From the foliage above came a faint rustle followed by what might pass as a discreet little cough. The range rider sat up as though he were hinged at the hips, rose to his feet, and lifted the pinched-in felt hat to a glimpse of blue in the shower of blossoms.
