Bill pe£to 119 hundred miles under his guidance. Bill is very quiet incivilisation, but becomes more communicative aroundan evening camp-fire, when he delights to tell hisadventures. His has been a roving life. The story ofhis battle with the world, his escapades and suffer-ings of hunger and exposure, not to mention thedreams and ambitions of a keen imagination withtheir consequent disappointments, has served toentertain many an evening hour. Peyto assumes awild and picturesque though somewhat tattered at-tire. A sombrero, with a rakish tilt to one side, ablue shirt set off by a white kerchief (which mayhave served civilisation for a napkin), and a buck-skin coat with fringed border, add to his cowboyappearance. A heavy belt containing a row of cart-ridges, hunting-knife and six-shooter, as well as therestless activity of his wicked blue eyes, give him anair of bravado. He usually wears two pairs of trou-sers, one over the other, the outer pair about sixmonths older. This was shown
