When Wilbur unexpectedly arrives, he is confronted with the letter and immediately denies knowing anything of such a person as Lord Winston Radleigh. He becomes greatly alarmed, for he thinks that Monty has probably been murdered by the villain. Hearing that Monty had started toward the H. O. Ranch, they rush madly in the direction. They have discovered that Constance has also disappeared and believe she has been kidnapped.
Meanwhile, Monty is met at the ranch by several cowboys, with whom he fights, for he sees Constance seated in a chair with a revolver pointed at her head. Finally, after struggling {Continued on page 35)
