MOUNTAIN MARCH-p\ON ALESSANDRO was silting on a

large chair on the veranda of his rancho.

The day was warm yet his keen eyes could

see the snow capped mountains in the dis-

tance. He was in a reflective mood and spokeslowly for the henefit of his son.

"I was born a citizen of Spain, then whenthe revolution took place, I became a Mexi-can. And now that California belongs to the

United States, I am an American. You wantto know a secret? After I had that talk with

Genera! Fremont, I bought governmentbonds. They are in Washington, the capital

of these United States. Shows you what a

far seeing man I am."-

Ferdinando, his son, stood quietly with his

back to the wall. From all appearances he

was listening to the reflections of his falher.

But Don Alessandro was not to be deceived.

"If t talked all day, you would stand there

and not say a word. But you would not fool

me. Your heart and your mind arc with the

beautiful Janice Boardman. And I can not

blame you for your choice. It is a shame that

the Senor Boardman, her father,* does notshare the way she feels towards you. But donot worry. Remember the old saying we hadin Mexico? That when two people truly are

in love with each, there can be nothing to

separate them. But what is that I see in the

distance? A horse with a rider. It is evidentthat somebody is in a great haste to comehere."

Within five minutes the great brown stal-

lion was at the rancho. Ferdinando ran

quickly to the beautiful girl who was in thesaddle. He helped her to the ground. Theykissed each other.

"There are those who say that Love is thegreatest adventure of all," reflected DonAlessandro to himself. "Something of onlythe greatest importance must have broughtthe daughter of Senor Boardman to ourrancho alone. I shall arise and greet her."

However, the girl with the flowing corncolored hair and eyes of the color of the clear

sky greeted the father of the man she loved.

Then she quickly explained her mission. Shepointed to the snow capped mountains.

"A wagon train is trapped on the otherside. They are unable to move. Twelvewagons with about seventy adults and ten

children. One man managed to climb down.Will you please come over to my father's

ranch at once. He asked me to come here to

get you. So there must be something on his

mind he did not tell me."

"Pedro," shouted Don Alessandro, "at onceyou must saddle our best horses! You,Manuel, and Moreno will come with us."

An hour's quick ride brought the group to

the Boardman Ranch. A middle-aged heavyset man was awaiting their arrival nervously.The riders dismounted and soon were inside

the large room of the main house. A thin

sickly looking man was on a bed. A doctorwas at his side.

"I need your help," pleaded Senor Board-man. "As my daughter has told you, a groanof emigrants from the states are trapped onthe other side of the mountains. The snowthere is more than ten feet deep. Their foodis running low. Their animals are gone. Un-less we can rescue them they will eitherstarve or freeze to death."

"We did not ask them to come here," re-plied Don Alessandro. "There is no dutyupon our shoulders to go and risk our lives

for the uninvited."

Senor Boardman bit his lower lip. Therewas something he had concealed. Now hewould have to tell it.

"My mother and father are among thatparty. They are old. I wrote to them last

year and asked them to come here and live

with me. I can't ask you to save them unlessI ask help for all. Please do not refuse me."

Ferdinando started to reply but his fatherheld up his hand as a signal of silence. Hehad something to say.

"It is sad but true, that in a moment whenyou find yourself weak you turn to us. Yourdaughter loves my son. Yet you opposedtheir marriage. I love Yny son very much.Perhaps we could trade. Give your consentto their marriage and I shall do everythingm my power to rescue them. But how didthey get trapped up there?"

"That scoundrel Hastings and his wrongmap," interrupted the weak voice of the manon the bed. "We bought a copy of his map.They warned us at Fort Benton'that the mapwas not very accurate. We took the southerncut-off to California. It was never made by

Page 21: Lash LaRue Comics · 2015. 7. 21. · lashlaruewestern whiletheentirevallevteetered ontheedgeofwar,/hisscora seemedonwconcernedwith theflowerselmodalleswas bringing.. ho*jthrilling

a man who had surveyed the route. We lost

three precious weeks of our time. Otherwise

with good weather we could have crossed the

mountains. My wii'e and child are up there.

Please, I beg of you, save them."

"If you try to s.ave them," ;igrced Senor

Boardman, "I give my permission lor mydaughter to marry the brave sun of a.brave

man."

"You have been here two years, Senor

Boardman," explained Don Alessandro. "You

know that in that time no man has been able

to go up the mountains to the other side. The

reason is that we do not have' true footed

animals to carry the needed supplies. There

is only one way we can do it. We need about

a hundred men. Each will carry a bag of

supplies consisting; of dried meat, fruits, and

corn. The supplies will be dropped at inter-

vals and then lifted' again. Now see if you

can get your men to volunteer to climb with

us. But they must know the truth. One

misstep and there will be certain death."

Senor Boardman culled the men of his

ranch together. He explained the situation

to them. To his surprise, they were reluctant

to go up and try to rescue the stranded

people. Don Alessandro smiled.

"Get me some wood ancl a blanket," he

ordered. "1 shall send up smeke signals to

my old friend, Chief White Hai>. He will

not fail me."

Two hours after the smoke signals had

been sent up into the sky, a band of mounted

Indians from further down the valley came.

The situation was quickly explained to tl>em.

"It is enough that my friend Don Alessaii-

dro needs our help. We are ready to leave,"

said the Indian chief.

Suddenly one of the men on the ranch

turned to his companions and berated them.

"What's the matter with us? Are we like

children who are scared? Here are redskins

who don't even care that they might never

return. It is enough that a friend of theirs

has asked for help. Can we do less? I don't

want to carry the brand of coward the rest

of my life."

Throughout the night, the men worked

gathering the needed supplies. At daybreak

they were ready to leave. Senor Boardmanand Ferdihando insisted on going with the

rescue party. They knew exactly from the

words of the man who had managed to climb

down, where the wagon train was stranded.

Janice Boardman bade farewell to the man

she loved and to her father. She watched the

rescue party walk away until they seemed

like dots on the horizon. When they came to

the base of the mountain they rested.

"Take the long rope and attach it to your

body, my son, and then to the body of Senor

Boardman. We shall lead the party."

The going up was tough. Once Senor

Boardman slipped and only the rope around

his body saved him from utter destruction.

It was necessary to rest at intervals of two

hours. Climbing was impossible during the

night and fires were lighted to keep the men

warm. It was something of an endless chain.

A man would deposit his bundle of supplies

and then go back for another bundle. All in

all, one hundred and thirty-five men went up

the mountain. However only twenty-five, in-

cluding the leaders arrived on the other side.

It was a sad sight that greeted their eyes.

The members of the wagon train were too

weak to rise. Fires were soon kindled and

warm food prepared.

"My father and mother are alive," shouted

Senor Boardman. Then he realized the prob-

lem. "How can we ever get them down?"

"We can't do it now," replied Don Ales-

sandro. "That is why we brought so much

food. We can stay here three weeks and feed

everybody. Then the men, women, and chil-

dren will have renewed energy. Also the

snow level will be down. Thus they will all

be able to descend to the valley on foot. The

valuables in the wagons can be covered witn

extra canvas. Later, when spring comes, ^e

can all return and bring the property b:(.k."

There was great rejoicing at the Boj r(jmanranch. lV.verybody had been . Uvi'ted to the

wedding of j'anice and Ferdirando. The hour

was late and Senor Boardman had something

to ask of Don Alessan'dw.

"Where did you ever get the idea of or-

ganizing the rescue party that way?"

"Because I was very proficicient in higher

mathematics," smiled Don Alessandro. "I

won honors at the University of Madrid. For

this my parents gave me a vacation and

sent me to Switzerland where I did some

mountain climbing and also one rescue

mission."
