Haunted Hills

This story deals with the efforts of a peaceful old man to get back his store of supplies that have been stolen from him by a man who uses the hills as a place of refuge. Unable to best the man by physical blows, the old man "haunts" him on his march through the sandy canyons and beautiful hills - that is, he follows him and plays constantly upon his nerves by throwing stones down the mountains, disarranging his pack when he isn't looking, until finally his nerves give way entirely and he falls terrified down the Sand Creek Canyon.
