es quickly away,
leading the second horse, while Jess watches him for a
moment, and then starts toward house.

12--Foothill trail--

Steve riding up trail, disappearing round bend of hill.

13--Rocky portion of hillside showing entrance to sort of cave in side
of cliff--

Steve dismounts, ties both horses, takes pick and shovel
from second horse, then goes forward and enters cave.

14--Interior of cave--

Steve kneeling and removing large rocks from floor of cave.
Rises, takes pick and makes good-sized hole in rocky
ground, using both pick and shovel. Suddenly stops, kneels,
works with hands a moment, rises, takes up pick and drives
it into bottom of hole he has made. Throws pick down,
kneels, holds up fair-sized piece of ice. Rises, runs out of
cave. Back almost immediately with saddle-bags. Throws them
down, takes up pick and starts to get out the ice.

15--Entrance to cave, same as 13--

Steve just finishing loading horse with saddle-bags filled
with ice. Secures pick and shovel across bags, mounts own
horse and starts to ride away, leading second horse as
before.

16--Ranch house, same as 5--

Jess standing in doorway, great anxiety in face. Expression

dismounts in front of door, takes saddle-bags from horse
and, with Jess leading, goes into house.

17--Bedroom, same as 4--

Steve is just making an ice-pack with a piece of flannel.
Places it on child's head. He stands watching the child
intently for a moment, then looks at the girl. Jess shows
her gratitude very plainly. She holds out her hand. Steve
starts to take it, then draws back sharply. Jess astonished,
not understanding his reluctance. He hangs his head, but
remains silent. Jess watches him for a moment and then turns
away. She is standing by table which is close to the bed.
As she turns she knocks over the bottle of medicine with one
hand. It falls to floor and breaks, spilling on carpet. Jess
shows utter consternation. Steve also distressed. Jess
points to alarm clock standing on table, speaking to Steve
excitedly. He greatly impressed by the gravity of the
situation. She indicates that the doctor lives in the
distant town. He nods, evidently trying to make up his mind
what to do. Suddenly turns to Jess,
