A cold fog swept iu over, the
Mission Hills, Tint darkness was
deep, scarcely permitting; us to
make out tin* road. Nevertheless
we dashed recklessly along, out
Mrumiam street and over the San
Bruno road. Il was scarcely day
break when we arrived at the
Point, our horses <juile blown and
covered with mud and foam. Not
a soul was on the ground. A
cold mist hung over the bay, and
now ami then a drizzling shower
came sweeping down from the
hills. We tied our horses to a
si tinted oak si mi walked tilling 1 lie
sand, ten minutes, perhaps, in
one direction, and then returned.
There had been.meantime, anofli

little better than a murder, f in
ipliled, however, what were the
Weapons and fife distance. His
answer horrified me.
Well, stranger, it's pretty

i his arrangement, though,' point

the left baud, shoot at the word

‘Sail iu ! Stop il if you can ! Ye
don’t know Bed Kill and Yank as

that way,’ replied the second
I immediately advanced and
addresssed the tall stranger.
‘I trust, sir,' I said, ‘that you
■will not persist in the terms of
theduel. Il is murder, it Hither
falls you cannot lie regarded
guiltless of a terrible sin.’

shook liis head. j olt are was!

lie had a line face, a fair brow
with delicate lips, but eyes that
laid a strange, almost unearthly
glitter.
‘Can nothing move you ' Think

mother ’, consider their terrible
grief when they hear ol this fear

He shook his head and coolly
smiled ‘I have no friends,,was his
only answer.' ‘You waste time.'
I returned to Garland. The
second of Roil Kill again advaitc
ed, conversed with him a short
time and then joined In.* prinei
pal. Red Kill made a gesture ot
assent, and the two duelists ad
vanced toward each oHiur. I'lie
seconds look two pistols from the
coach; the to.(ding took place in
the presence of the witnesses; a
coin was tossed for choice of
weapons. Red Kill won. they
took their position-. The-perta

menting on the appearance of t tie
men. and giving opinion- a- to
the result.

tall stranger had met h>' death
without a pang, the ball from liis
treacherous foe penetrating and
passing ll|rot|gli liis brains.
Red Bill bad fired before iln*

terrible, followed.
The pistol of liis adversary had
exploded in time to send a ball
crushing through his lower jaw,
inflicting a most terrible wound.
The surgeon pronounced it fatal.
Bed Bill was placed it| the car

which was driven rapidly stwa.v.

A SHGRIFF ON DUTY.
The preparation of llio Territo

Slate called for a thorough revis
