When Venters sees Oldring and the Masked Rider ride across the edge of Jane's land, it is ominous because Oldring is known as a dishonest cattle rustler. This gives the reader a sense of anticipation knowing that Oldring and his Masked Rider may be out causing trouble and are clearly going somewhere.
