Everything was still swathed in shadows as Demetrio Macias began his descent to the bottom of the ravine. Between rocks striped with huge eroded cracks, and a squarely cut wall, with the river flowing below, a narrow ledge along the steep incline served as a mountain trail.
"They'll surely find me now," he mused. "It's a good thing they know nothing about the trails and paths up here. . . . . But if they got someone from Moyahua to guide them . . . " He left the thought unfinished. "All the men from Limon or Santa Rosa or the other nearby ranches are on our side: they wouldn't try to trail us. That cacique who's chased and run me ragged over these hills, is at Mohayua now; he'd give his eyeteeth to capture me."
At dawn, he approached the pit of the canyon. Here, he lay on the rocks and fell asleep.
