“Rufus Tinker nodded at the ground before them as if that were sufficient to explain his reasoning to his weary sons. They all could see the tracks in places as plain as day, though they meant little to them. No one had ever taught them to track anything more than a deer, and even when they had to do that, they followed animals they had plainly seen, then had shot and followed the blood trail. But rarely did they have to rely on reading sign. Peter spoke up. “Papa, we have walked through the... night and could all use a rest. We could fill our canteens at that stream, maybe nap for a spell. We are all tuckered out.” He gestured at the other three men walking behind him. The brothers looked at the old man, then looked away, slight nods showing their agreement. Tinker halted the mule and glared at each of his sons in turn. That they were exhausted was obvious, but he also didn’t want to lose even more time. If they each had a mount, they could have all been on horseback, riding day and night.MoreLessRead More Read Less
