Here I am going to stay for the present. FatherSalvierderra wishes it." "Oh, if the Father wishes it, that is different." "Ah, that alters thecase!" "Alessandro is right!" came up in confused murmur fromthe appeased crowd. They were all good Catholics, every one ofthe Temecula men, and would never think of going against theFather's orders. But when they understood that Alessandro'sintention was to remain until Juan Canito's leg should be wellenough for him to go about again, fresh grumblings began. Thatwould not do. It would be all summer. Alessandro must be at homefor the Saint Juan's Day fete, in midsummer,-- no doing anythingwithout Alessandro then. What was he thinking of? Not of themidsummer fete, that was certain, when he promised to stay aslong as the Senorita Ramona should need him. Alessandro hadremembered nothing except the Senorita's voice, while she wasspeaking to him. If he had had a hundred engagements for thesummer, he would have incest gallery them all. Now that he wasreminded of the midsummer fete, it must be confessed he was fora moment dismayed at the recollection; for that was a time, when,as he well knew. his father could not do without his help. Therewere sometimes a thousand Indians at this fete, and disorderlywhites took advantage of the occasion to sell whisky andencourage all sorts of license and disturbance. Yes, Alessandro'sclear path of duty lay incest gallery Temecula when that fete came off. Thatwas certain. "I will manage to be at home then," he said. "If I am not throughhere by that time, I will at least come for the fete. That you maydepend on." The voting incest gallery the new captain did not take long. There was, infact, but one man in the band fit for the office. That was Fernando,the only old man in the band; all the rest were young men underthirty, or boys. Fernando had been captain for several years, buthad himself begged, two years ago, that the band would electAlessandro in his place. He was getting old, and he did not like tohave to sit up and walk about the first half of every night, to seethat.
The shearers were not gambling away incest gallery their money at cards;he preferred to roll himself up in his blanket at sunset and sleep tilldawn the next morning. But just for these few remaining weeks hehad no objection to taking the office again. And Alessandro wasright, entirely right, in remaining; they ought all to see that,Fernando said; and his word had great weight with the men. The Senora Moreno, he reminded them, had always been a goodfriend of theirs, and had said that so incest gallery as she had sheep to shear,the Temecula shearers should do it; and it would be veryungrateful now if they did not do all they could to help her in herneed. The blankets were rolled up, the saddles collected, the poniescaught and driven up to the shed, when Ramona and Margaritawere seen coming at full speed from the house. "Alessandro! Alessandro!" cried Ramona, out of breath, "I haveonly just now heard that the men have had no dinner to-day. I amashamed; but you know it would not have happened except for thesickness in the house. Everybody thought they were going awaythis morning. Now they must have a good supper before they go. Itis already cooking. Tell them to wait." Those of the men who understood the S.
Panish language, in whichRamona spoke, translated it to those who did not, and there was acordial outburst of thanks to the Senorita from all lips. All wereonly too ready to wait for the supper. Their haste to begin on theOrtega sheep-shearing had suddenly faded from their minds. OnlyAlessandro hesitated. "It is a good six hours' ride to Ortega's," he said to the men. "You'llbe late in, if you do not start now." "Supper will be ready in an hour," said Ramona. "Please let themstay; one hour can't make any difference." Alessandro smiled. "It will take nearer two, Senorita, before theyare off," he said; "but it shall be as you wish, and many thanks toyou, Senorita, for thinking of it." "Oh, I did not think of it myself," said Ramona. "It was Margarita,here, who came and told me. She knew we would be ashamed tohave the shearers go away hungry. I am afraid they are very hungryindeed," she added ruefully. "It must be dreadful to go a whole daywithout anything to eat; they had their breakfast soon after sunrise,did they not?" "Yes, Senorita," answered Alessandro, "but that is not long; onecan do without food very well for one day. I often do." "Often." exclaimed Ramona; "but why should you do that?" Thensuddenly bethinking herself, she said in her heart, "Oh, what athoughtless question! Can it be they are so poor as that?" And tosave Alessandro from replying, she set off on a run for the house,saying, "Come, come, Margarita, we must go and help at thesupper." "Will the Senorita let me help, too," asked Alessandro, wonderingat his own boldness,-- "if there is anything I can do?" "Oh, no," she cried, "there is not. Yes, there is, too. You can helpcarry the things down to the booth; for we are short o.
