From his vantage point Edge watched the onrush, but was unable to see if any more men went down in its path as they were swallowed up by the darkness. He gazed down with a hard grin narrowing his eyes and splitting his mouth over the whiteness of his teeth, and did not come up from off his belly until the final maddened beast had passed and the sound of hoofbeats was swallowed up by distance.
Then he moved off the shelf and went carefully down the slope to amble over to where the battered body of Layton was crumpled. Imbedded in the blood and bone was something that shone faintly of silver and he stooped down and dug it free. He grimaced when he saw it was a five pointed star set in a circle. He dropped the badge back on to the body and grinned as he looked along the ravine, now filled with a solid silence.
"Now that the buffalo's gone, thanks fellers," he muttered. "And it weren't even your beef."
