Zane Grey

Betty Zane (RGV Old West Classic) Western Novel Zane Grey

Major McColloch was the eldest of the brothers of that name. As an Indian killer he ranked next to the intrepid Wetzel; but while Wetzel preferred to take his chances alone and track the Indians through the untrodden wilds, McColloch was a leader of expeditions against the savages. A giant in stature, massive in build, bronzed and bearded, he looked the typical frontiersman. His blue eyes were like those of his sister and his voice had the same pleasant ring."Major McColloch, do you remember me?" asked Betty."Indeed I do," he answered, with a smile. "You were a little girl, running wild, on the Potomac when I last saw you!""Do you remember when you used to lift me on your horse and give me lessons in riding?""I remember better than you. How you used to stick on the back of that horse was a mystery to me."
