00:00At night, the wolves in the dark forests of the world below called to them as if they were friends to man,
00:08and Glanton's dog trotted, moaning, among the endlessly articulating legs of the horses.
00:16Nine days out of Chihuahua, they passed through a gap in the mountains,
00:21and began to descend by a trail that ran carved along the solid stone face of a bluff a thousand feet above the clouds.
00:28A great stone mammoth watched from the grey escarpment above them.
00:35They picked their way down, single file.
00:38They passed through a tunnel hewn in the rock, and on the other side, miles below them in a gorge, lay the roofs of a town.
00:48They descended by rock switchbacks, and across the beds of streams,
00:53where small trout stood on their pale fins, and studied the noses of the drinking horses.
01:01Sheets of mist that smelled and tasted of metal rose out of the gorge, and crossed over them, and moved on through the woods.
01:10They nudged the horses through the ford, and down the trace, and at three o'clock in the afternoon,
01:15in a thin and drizzling rain, they rode into the old stone town of Jesu Maria.
01:22They clattered over the rain-washed cobbles, stuck with leaves, and crossed a stone bridge,
01:28and rode up the street, under the dripping eaves of the galleried buildings,
01:33and along a mountain torrent that ran through the town.
01:37Small ore mills had been ground into the polished rocks in the river,
01:43and the hills above the town were everywhere tunneled and scaffolded and scarred with drifts and tailings.
01:52The raggle-tag advent of the riders was howled about by a few wet dogs crouched in doorways,
01:58and they turned into a narrow street, and halted, dripping before the door of an inn.
02:04Glanton pounded on the door, and it opened, and a young boy looked out.
02:11A woman appeared and looked at them, and went back in.
02:14Finally, a man came, and opened the gate.
02:18He was slightly drunk, and he held the gate while the horsemen rode through one by one
02:23into the little, flooded courtyard, and then he closed the gate behind them.
02:29In the morning, the rain had stopped, and they appeared in the streets,
02:35tattered, stinking, ornamented with human parts like cannibals.
02:41They carried the huge pistols stuck in their belts,
02:44and the vile skins they wore were deeply stained with blood and smoke and gun black.
02:50The sun was out, and the old women, on their knees with bucket and rag,
02:56washing the stones before the shop doors turned, and looked after them,
03:01and shopkeepers, setting out their wares, nodded them awari, good morning.
03:08They were a strange clientele among such commerce.
03:12They stood blinking before the doorways, where finches hung in small, withy cages,
03:20and green and brassy parrots that stood on one foot and croaked uneasily.
03:27There were hristras of dried fruit, and peppers and clusters of tinware that hung like chimes,
03:35and there were hogskins filled with pulque that swung from the beams like bloated swine in a knacker's yard.
03:41They sent for cups.
03:44A fiddler appeared, and crouched on a stone door sill,
03:48and began to saw out some Moorish folk tune,
03:51and none who passed on their morning errands could take their eyes from those pale and rancid giants.
03:58By noon, they'd found a bodega run by a man named Frank Carroll,
04:03a low doggery once a stable, whose shed doors stood open to the street to admit the only light.
04:12The fiddler had followed in what seemed a great sadness,
04:15and he took up his station just without the door,
04:18where he could watch the outlanders drink and clack their gold doubloons on the board.
04:22In the doorway there was an old man taking the sun,
04:29and he leaned with a goat horn ear-trumpet to the rising din within,
04:35and nodded in continual agreement,
04:38although no word was spoken in any language he had understanding of.
04:43The judge had spied the musician,
04:46and he called to him,
04:47and tossed a coin that clinked upon the stones.
04:50The fiddler held it briefly to the light as if it might not serve,
04:54and then slipped it away among his clothes,
04:56and fitted his instrument beneath his chin,
04:59and struck up an air that was old
05:01among the mountebanks of Spain two hundred years before.
05:05The judge stepped into the sunlit doorway
05:08and executed upon the stones
05:10a series of steps with a strange precision,
05:15and he and the fiddler
05:16seemed alien minstrels met by chance in this medieval town.
05:23The judge removed his hat
05:25and bowed to a pair of ladies detoured into the street
05:28to bypass the doggery,
05:31and he pirouetted hugely on his mincing feet
05:34and poured pulke from his cup
05:36into the old man's ear trumpet.
05:39The old man quickly stoppered the horn
05:41with the ball of his thumb,
05:43and he held the horn with care before him,
05:45while he augured his ear with one finger,
05:48and then he drank.
05:51By dark, the streets were filled
05:53with besotted bedlamites lurching and cursing
05:56and ringing the church bells with pistol balls
05:59in a godless charivari,
06:01until the priest emerged,
06:03bearing before him the crucified Christ
06:05and exhorting them with fragments of Latin
06:08in a sing-song chant.
06:10This man was drubbed in the street
06:12and prodded obscenely,
06:14and they flung gold coins at him
06:15as he lay clutching his image.
06:18When he rose,
06:19he disdained to take up the coins
06:21until some small boys ran out
06:23to gather them,
06:24and then he ordered them brought to him,
06:26while the barbarians whooped
06:28and drank him a toast.
06:31Spectators drifted away.
06:33The narrow street emptied.
06:36Some of the Americans had wandered
06:37into the cold waters of the stream
06:39and were splashing about,
06:41and they clambered dripping into the street
06:45and stood dark and smoking and apocalyptic
06:48in the dim lampfall.
06:51The night was cold,
06:53and they shambled steaming through the Kabul town
06:55like fairy book beasts,
06:57and it had begun to rain again.
07:01The date that followed
07:02was the Feast of Las Animas,
07:04and there was a parade through the streets
07:06in a horse-drawn carriage
07:07that bore a rude Christ
07:08in a stained and ancient caltafalque.
07:13Lay acolytes followed all in company,
07:16and the priests went
07:17before ringing a small bell.
07:20A barefoot brotherhood,
07:22clad in black,
07:23marched in the rear,
07:25bearing scepters of weeds.
07:26The Christ jostled past,
07:30a poor figure of straw
07:31with carven head and feet.
07:34He wore a crown of mountain briars,
07:36and on his brow were painted drops of blood,
07:40and on his old, dry, wooden cheeks
07:42blew tears.
07:44The villagers knelt and blessed themselves,
07:47and some stepped forward
07:48and touched the garment the figure wore
07:50and kissed their fingertips.
07:52The parade trundled past mournfully,
07:58and small children sat in the doorways,
08:01eating pastry skulls,
08:02and watching the parade and the rain
08:05in the streets.
08:06The judge sat alone in the cantina.
08:10He also watched the rain,
08:13his eyes small in his great naked face.
08:16He'd filled his pockets
08:17with little candy death's heads,
08:20and he sat by the door
08:21and offered these to children,
08:23passing on the walk under the eaves,
08:25but they shied away like little horses.
08:28In the evening, groups of townsfolk
08:32descended from the cemetery
08:33on the side of the hill,
08:36and later, in the dark,
08:38by candle or lamplight,
08:40they emerged again
08:42and made their way up to the church to pray.
08:46None but past clutches of Americans
08:48crazed with drink,
08:49and these grimy visitants
08:51would doff their hats oafishly
08:53and totter and grin
08:56and make obscene suggestions
08:58to the young girls.
09:00Carol had closed his qualified bistro at dusk,
09:03but opened it again
09:04to save the doors being stove.
09:07Sometime in the night,
09:08a party of horsemen
09:09bound for California arrived.
09:12Every man of them slumped in exhaustion,
09:14yet, within the hour,
09:16they'd written out again.
09:19By midnight,
09:20when the souls of the dead
09:21were rumored to be about,
09:23the scalp hunters were again
09:25howling in the streets
09:26and discharging their pistols,
09:28in spite of rain or death.
09:31And this continued sporadically
09:32until dawn.
09:35By noon,
09:36the day following,
09:37Glanton,
09:38in his drunkenness,
09:39was taken with a kind of fit,
09:41and he lurched,
09:42crazed and disheveled
09:43into the little courtyard
09:45and began to open fire
09:47with his pistols.
09:48In the afternoon,
09:49he lay bound to his bed
09:51like a madman,
09:51while the judge sat with him
09:54and cooled his brow
09:55with rags of water
09:56and spoke to him
09:57in a low voice.
10:00Outside voices called
10:01across the steep hills.
10:03A little girl was missing,
10:05and parties of citizens
10:06had turned out
10:07to search the mine shafts.
10:10After a while,
10:11Glanton slept,
10:12and the judge rose
10:14and went out.
10:15It was grey and raining,
10:18leaves were blowing down.
10:21A ragged stripling
10:22stepped from a doorway
10:23by a wooden rain spout
10:25and tugged
10:27at the judge's elbow.
10:29He had two pups
10:29in his shirt front,
10:30and these he offered for sale,
10:33dragging on forth
10:34by the neck.
10:35The judge was looking
10:36off up the street.
10:38When he looked down
10:39at the boy,
10:40the boy holed forth
10:41the other dog.
10:43They hung limply.
10:46Pero sabende,
10:48he said.
10:50¿Cuánto quieres?
10:52said the judge.
10:53The boy looked at one,
10:55and then the other
10:56of the animals,
10:57as if he'd picked one
10:59to suit the judge's character.
11:01Such dogs existing
11:02somewhere, perhaps.
11:04He thrust forth
11:05the left-handed animal.
11:06Cincuenta centavos,
11:11he said.
11:12The pup squirmed,
11:14and drew back in his fist
11:15like an animal
11:16backing down a hole,
11:18its pale blue eyes impartial,
11:20befrighted,
11:21alike of the cold,
11:23and the rain,
11:25and the judge.
11:28Ambos,
11:29said the judge.
11:31He sought in his pockets
11:32for coins.
11:33The dog vendor
11:34took this
11:35for a bargaining device
11:36and studied the dogs anew
11:37to better determine
11:39their worth,
11:40but the judge
11:40had dredged
11:41from his polluted clothes
11:42a small gold coin
11:44worth a bushel
11:46of such-priced dogs.
11:48He laid the coin
11:49in the palm of his hand,
11:50and he held it out,
11:51and with the other hand
11:53took the pups
11:54from their keeper,
11:55holding them
11:56in one fist
11:57like a pair of socks.
11:59He gestured
12:00with the gold.
12:01Andale,
12:03he said.
12:04The boy stared
12:05at the coin.
12:06The judge made a fist
12:08and opened it.
12:09The coin was gone.
12:11He wove his fingers
12:12in the empty air
12:13and reached
12:15behind the boy's ear
12:16and took the coin
12:17and handed it to him.
12:19The boy held the coin
12:20in both hands
12:21before him
12:22like a small cyborium,
12:25and he looked up
12:26at the judge,
12:27but the judge
12:28had set forth,
12:29dogs dangling.
12:30He crossed upon
12:31the stone bridge
12:32and he looked down
12:33into the swollen waters
12:35and raised the dogs
12:37and pitched them in.
12:39At the farther end,
12:41the bridge gave
12:41on to a small street
12:43that ran along the river.
12:47Here,
12:48the Vandermill lander
12:49stood urinating
12:50from a stone wall
12:51into the water.
12:53He saw the judge
12:54commit the dogs
12:55from the bridge.
12:56He drew his pistol
12:57and called out.
12:59The dogs disappeared
13:00in the foam.
13:02They swept one
13:03and the next
13:04down a broad green race
13:06over sheets
13:07of polished rock
13:08into the pool below.
13:11The Vandermill lander
13:12raised and cocked
13:13the pistol.
13:14In the clear waters
13:15of the pool,
13:17willow leaves
13:17turned like jade dice.
13:19The pistol bucked
13:22in his hand
13:23and one of the dogs
13:24leaped in the water
13:25and he cocked it
13:27again
13:28and fired again
13:30and a pink stain
13:32diffused.
13:33He cocked and fired
13:34the pistol
13:35a third time
13:36and the other dog
13:38also blossomed
13:39and sank.
13:41The judge
13:42continued on
13:43across the bridge.
13:45When the boy
13:45ran up
13:45and looked down
13:46into the water,
13:47he was still
13:48holding the coin.
13:49The Vandermill lander
13:50stood in the street
13:51opposite
13:52with his pistol
13:53in one hand
13:54and the revolver
13:55in the other.
13:56The smoke
13:57had drifted
13:58off downstream
13:58and there was
13:59nothing in the pool
14:00at all.
14:02Sometime
14:02in the late afternoon,
14:04Glanton woke
14:04and managed
14:05to struggle free
14:06of his bindings.
14:08The first news
14:08they had of him
14:09was in the front
14:10of the cuartel
14:10where he cut down
14:12the Mexican flag
14:13with his knife
14:13and tied it
14:15to the tail
14:15of a mule.
14:16Then he mounted
14:17the mule
14:18and goaded
14:18it through
14:19the square,
14:20dragging the sacred
14:21bandera in the mud
14:22behind him.
14:24He made a circuit
14:25of the streets
14:25and emerged
14:26in the plaza again,
14:28kicking the animal
14:28viciously in the flanks.
14:30As he turned,
14:32a shot rang out
14:34and the mule
14:35fell stone-dead
14:36under him
14:37with a musket ball
14:38lodged in its brain.
14:41Glanton rolled clear
14:42and scrambled
14:43to his feet,
14:44firing wildly.
14:46An old woman
14:47sank soundlessly
14:48to the stones.
14:50The judge
14:50and Tobin
14:51and Doc Irving
14:52came from Frank Carroll's
14:53on a dead run
14:54and knelt
14:55in the shadow
14:55of a wall
14:56and began to fire
14:58at the upper windows.
15:00Another half-dozen
15:01Americans
15:01came around
15:03the corner
15:04at the far side
15:05of the square
15:06and in a flurry
15:07of gunfire
15:08two of them fell.
15:09Slags of lead
15:10were winding
15:11off the stones
15:12and gun smoke
15:13hung over the streets
15:14in the damp air.
15:16Glanton and John Gunn
15:18had made their way
15:18along the walls
15:19to the shed
15:19behind the pousada
15:21where the horses
15:22were stabled
15:23and they began
15:24bringing the animals
15:25out.
15:26Three more
15:27of the company
15:27entered the yard
15:28at a run
15:29and commenced
15:30to tote gear
15:30out of the building
15:31and to saddle horses.
15:33Gunfire was now
15:34continual in the street
15:36and two Americans
15:37lay dead
15:38and others
15:38lay calling out.
15:40When the company
15:40rode out
15:41thirty minutes later
15:42they ran a gantlet
15:43of ragged fusel fire
15:45and rocks
15:46and bottles
15:46and they left
15:48six of their number
15:49behind.
15:49An hour later
15:51Carol
15:52and another American
15:53named Sanford
15:54who had been
15:55residing in the town
15:56caught them up.
15:58The citizens
15:58had torched the saloon.
16:00The priest
16:01had baptized
16:01the wounded Americans
16:02and then stood back
16:04while they were shot
16:05through the head.
16:06Before dark
16:07they encountered
16:09laboring up
16:10the western slope
16:11of the mountain
16:11a conducta
16:13of one hundred
16:14and twenty-two
16:15mules
16:16bearing flasks
16:18of quicksilver
16:19for the mines.
16:20They could hear
16:21the whip crack
16:22and cry
16:23of the arrieros
16:24on the switchbacks
16:25far below them
16:26and they could see
16:27the burdened animals
16:28plodding like goats
16:29along a fault line
16:30in the sheer rock wall.
16:32Bad luck.
16:33Twenty-six days
16:34from the sea
16:35and less than
16:36two hours
16:36out from the mines.
16:38The mules
16:39wheezed
16:40and scrabbled
16:40in the talus
16:41and the drivers
16:43in their ragged
16:43and colorful costumes
16:45harried them on.
16:45When the first of them
16:47saw the riders
16:48above them
16:48he stood in the stirrups
16:50and looked back.
16:52The column of mules
16:53wound down the trail
16:54for a half mile
16:55or more
16:56and as they bunched
16:58and halted
16:58there were sections
17:00of the train
17:01visible
17:01on the separate
17:03switchbacks
17:03far below
17:04eight and ten mules
17:06facing now this way
17:08now that
17:09the tails of the animals
17:10picked clean as bones
17:11by those behind
17:13and the mercury
17:14within the gutta percha
17:16flasks
17:16pulsing heavily
17:17as if they carried
17:19secret beasts
17:20things in pairs
17:22that stirred
17:23and breathed
17:24uneasily
17:25within those
17:27bloated satchels.
17:29The muleteer
17:30turned and looked
17:30up the trail.
17:32Already
17:32Glanton
17:33was upon him.
17:35He greeted
17:36the American
17:36cordially.
17:38Glanton rose past
17:39without speaking.
17:40taking the upper
17:42side in that
17:43rocky strait
17:44and shouldering
17:45the drover's
17:46mule dangerously
17:47among the loose
17:48shales.
17:50The man's face
17:51clouded
17:51and he turned
17:52and called back
17:53down the trail.
17:55The other riders
17:55were now pushing
17:56past him
17:57their eyes narrow
17:59and their faces
18:00black as stokers
18:01with gun suit.
18:04He stood down
18:05off his mule
18:06and drew his
18:06escopeta
18:07from under
18:08the fender
18:09of the saddle.
18:10David Brown
18:11was opposite
18:12him at this
18:12point
18:13and his pistol
18:14already in his
18:14hand at the
18:15off side
18:16of his horse.
18:17He swung it
18:18over the pommel
18:19and shot the man
18:20squarely in the
18:20chest.
18:21The man sat
18:22down heavily
18:23and Brown
18:24shot him
18:24again
18:25and he pitched
18:26off down the
18:27rocks into
18:28the abyss
18:28below.
18:30The others
18:31of the company
18:31hardly turned
18:32to advise
18:32themselves
18:33of what had
18:33occurred.
18:34Every man
18:35of them
18:35was firing
18:36point-blank
18:36at the
18:37muleteers.
18:37They fell
18:39from their
18:39mouths
18:40and lay
18:40in the
18:40trail
18:41or slid
18:42from the
18:43escarpment
18:43and vanished.
18:46The drivers
18:46below got
18:47their animals
18:47turned
18:48and were
18:48attempting
18:48to flee
18:49back down
18:50the trail
18:51and the
18:52laden
18:52pack-mules
18:53were beginning
18:54to clamber
18:55white-eyed
18:56at the sheer
18:57wall of the
18:58bluff
18:58like enormous
18:59rats.
19:01The riders
19:02pushed between
19:02them and the
19:03rock and
19:03methodically
19:04rode them
19:04from the
19:05escarpment,
19:06the animals
19:07dropping silently
19:08as martyrs,
19:10turning sedately
19:11in the empty
19:12air and
19:13exploding on
19:14the rocks
19:14below in
19:15startling bursts
19:16of blood
19:16and silver
19:17as the
19:18flasks
19:19broke open
19:20and the
19:21mercury
19:21loomed,
19:23wobbling in
19:23the air in
19:24great sheets
19:25and lobes
19:26and small
19:27trembling
19:28satellites,
19:30and all
19:30its forms
19:30grouping below
19:31and racing
19:32in the
19:32stone
19:32arroyos
19:33like the
19:34embrachment
19:35of some
19:35ultimate
19:36alchemic
19:37work
19:38decocted
19:40from out
19:41the secret

20:04benched
20:06out
20:07in a
20:07swag
20:08on the

20:08where the
20:10precipice
20:10was almost
20:11negotiable
20:12and they
20:13rode and
20:13fell crashing
20:14down through
20:14the scrub

20:16in a
20:17confusion
20:18of cries
