Wild Texas Rose
“The wild boar must have settled down after he ate any food in the compartment. August Myers was nowhere in sight. Stitch figured he was locked in the tiny water cooler or he’d swung up in one of the luggage racks. Stitch didn’t really care as long as the man wasn’t following Killian and Victoria.
A night watchman passed by about one. He waved his lantern once toward Stitch, then shouted. “You’re a little early to hire out. The next train won’t be here until five.”
“I didn’t want to miss... a fare,” Stitch answered. “Thought I’d sleep here. The yard is always quiet this time a night.”
The watchman agreed. “It may be pretty quiet come morning. Word is we got a break somewhere down the line. Last train out is stopped a little over an hour out and is waiting for an okay to move on. Don’t look like it’ll happen before daylight. Workmen can’t seem to find anything.”
Stitch waited for the watchman to move along, then silently crossed over to Myers’s car.MoreLess
