Three men were on foot because the horse could not climb the side of the hill.
From the cave , the men looked like Little people.
Two of the trackers moved about on the small beach, near the pool.
The man with the rifle sat down and rested.
The other two men sat down, too.
Kino could see the men eating and he could hear their voices.
Night came to the valley.
The animals that drank from the pool came near.

Kino Heard a sound behind him.
Juana was telling the baby to be quiet.
Kino saw Juana cover Coyotito head with her shawl.
Kino saw that the other two men were sleeping.

Kino moved quickly back into the cave...
