“Flood?”
Flood looked up from his seat in the saloon. Since Clint left he had slowly worked on the bottle until it was almost gone. He frowned now, trying to see who was standing over him.
“What? Who’s that?”
“Spud, sir,” Spud Johnson said. “Are you all right?”
“Me? Sure, sure, I’m fine, just fine,” Flood said. “Spud, did you say?”
“Yes, sir,” Spud said. “You hired me to be the cook.”
“Right, right,” Flood said. “I, um, remember that.” Although he wasn’t really sure he did.
“Mr. Flood, can I hel...p you get back to camp?” Spud asked.
“Um, yeah, that would be . . . um, good . . . Do you have a horse?”
“Uh, no, sir.”
“Well, that’s okay,” Flood said. “I got one for you. Used to belong to a friend of mine. His name was Jack Trevor. Did you know Jack?”
“No, sir, I didn’t.”
“Well, actually,” Flood said, “the horse belongs to me. Jack was just ridin’ it. Okay, come on.”
Flood got to his feet, swayed, and would have fallen if Spud hadn’t grabbed him.MoreLess Read More Read Less
