Part Fifth: Captured by the Enemy
Martin and Solon blunder into the Invaders' camp near Casper. The two pretend to be supportive of the Invaders' mission and ride with them to the Tisdale ranch. Any travelers the met along the way were sworn to secrecy before being allowed to continue. Once at Tisdale's ranch to reconnoiter, Frank Canton, who still believes Martin and Solon are allies, returns their guns to join the attack for pay. Martin is assigned to remain guard with the teamsters while Solon is included with the group planning to dynamite the KC Ranch where several alleged cattle rustlers were staying.
