Ralph Compton Death Along the Cimarron
“Since he and Frisco had joined up, it seemed that all they’d done was ride from one robbery to the next. After the stagecoach, they’d robbed a relay station north of Santa Fe, then a band of settlers headed for California. But according to Frisco, every step they took was leading Dave that much closer to finding his wife. He had to go along with things. What else could he do? he asked himself. Another shot resounded from the shack.
Dave sat watching tensely for any sign of trouble. “Damn it, hurry up, Frisco,” he said to himself under his breath, seeing two miners step out of a toolshed a few yards away and look toward the office shack. Dave raised the rifle from across his lap and let the barrel loom menacingly toward them. “Get back inside, you peckerwoods! This doesn’t concern you!” he shouted through the bandanna he wore as a mask.
The two miners ducked back inside the toolshed, but only for a moment. By the time Frisco came running out of the office with a canvas moneybag in one ...hand and a smoking Colt in the other, the miners came out again.MoreLess
