When Jim dryly remarked to the cowboys that he guessed he would not hunt with them any more, they looked nonplussed and then blank. And he realized that if Molly could live up to her part of the programme, he could crush the tricksters for ever.
That morning, too, Dunn showed a decided turn for the better, and Jim, losing all his misgivings, was happy for Molly. She loved this backwoods brother and had faith in him. Jim generously waived the ambush on the trail and the rooster trick to which Slinger had treated him, and vowed he would share Molly's faith. Long before that he had decided to reward Slinger for saving his life.
