Carley saw the blue and yellow smoke from burning brush, and the fragrant odor thrilled her.
Mexicans were chopping the cleared cedars into firewood for winter use.
The day was spent before she realized it.

At sunset the carpenters and mechanics left in two old Ford cars for town.

The Mexicans had a camp in the cedars, and the Hoyles had theirs at the spring under the knoll where Carley had camped with Glenn and the Hutters.

Carley watched the golden rosy sunset, and as the day ended she breathed deeply as if in unutterable relief.

Supper found her with appetite she had long since lost.
