Apache Gold, Part 1 of 3
by Kenneth Newton
Sgt. Sam Gage stopped his mount alongside Capt. Harlan Drake's horse. "Cap'n, you reckon we might git
lucky enough to find the gold and git gone without runnin' into that big injun?"
"That would be OK with me, Sam," Drake replied, studying his map. "But right now I'm more worried about yanks."

Deadeye Dick
by Russell Gayer
Horsehead was a sorry excuse for a town. Only a few people remained after the silver mine
petered out. One particular member of the populace was a lowlife by the name of Deadeye Dick.

Medicine Show

Marshal Cooper Smith stepped out onto the boardwalk in front of Della's Café. He'd just finished his
favorite breakfast of hotcakes, warm syrup and coffee. Only one thing could make it better.

The Old Ranger

"Now I'm gonna kill you, old man. Just like you killed my Pa", said the Kid. He was

Welcome!
It's winter. if you're like me, that means you can't get out and do as
much as you'd like. I know my iron horse (motorcycle, that is!) gets downright cranky
when I try to get it out of the barn when the temperature drops very far. Well, I
can't rightly blame it . . . I get kind of cranky, too.
So, for the sake of all concerned, I now officially title February as "Hunker Down Month."
Throw another log on the fire, grab yourself a mug of Irish coffee, wrap up in a blanket, and
enjoy this month's stories. Let them take your mind off the weather. We'll deal with it
later. Right now, we've got some good reading to do!
