He stared into my face like a man looking for something he’s dropped and has got to find. ” the devil cried. We stood there in the sun, me and Ezekiel, and then something went out of his eyes, and he let go and walked back across the ditch and trudged after the mule without a word. I caught up to the Terraplane just in time for it to roll off again. I saw how it was, all right.
