Excerpt: ...his work done, and turned toward the Temples. Good morning, he called cheerily, highly content with life just at this moment. Fine day, isn''t it? Terry looked at him coolly. Then she turned her back and went into the house. Iki, the new cook, looked at her wonderingly. To me it appears most probable certain, said the astute Oriental within his soul, that inhabitants of these wilderness places have much madness within their brains. Steve swung his horse back into the road and set his face toward his own ranch. Darn the girl, he muttered. CHAPTER XIV THE MAN-BREAKER AT HOME In a short time the cattle country had come to know a good deal of Steve Packard, son of the late Philip Packard, grandson of Old Man Packard, variously known. Red Creek gossiped within its limits and sent forth word of a quarrel of some sort with Blenham, a winning game of seven-and-a-half, a fight with big Joe Woods. Red Creek was inclined to set the seal of approval on this new Packard, for Red Creek, on both sides of its quarrelsome street, stood ready to say that a man was a man even when it might go gunning for him. As the days went by Packard''s fame grew. There were tales that in a savage mêlée with Blenham he had eliminated that capable individual''s right eye; and though there were those who had had it from some of the Ranch Number Ten boys that Blenham''s loss was the result of an accident, still it remained unquestioned that Blenham had suffered injury at Packard''s ranch and had been driven forth from it. Then, Packard had followed Blenham to the logging-camp; he had tackled the crowd headed by Joe Woods; he had come remarkably close to killing Woods; he had broken up the camp and sent the timberjacks on their way. He had had a horse killed under him; he had quarrelled with his grandfather; he was standing on his own feet.
