He wasreturning now to meet with his kid brother at a place they had agreed upon severalyears earlier; as to whether or not the boy would remember, he could onlyspeculate. But while riding a train, Jonas met up with a band of potentialtrain robbers with a near idiot in charge, and after thrashing one of their group for molesting a young woman, he had been chosen astheir new leader.
