Hunt Angel! (A Frank Angel Western #5)
“(A Frank Angel Western #5) @page { margin-bottom: 5.000000pt; margin-top: 5.000000pt; } Chapter Five Ridlow hadn’t even been wearing a gun. He’d spent most of the late afternoon and early evening going from store to saloon to restaurant to livery stable to saloon, haranguing the citizens of Madison to support their marshal, completely ignoring the warning that Sheridan had served on him.
He’d been vituperative, scalding, merciless, calling Madison’s men folk spineless, spavined, swaybacked, and... possessed of less guts than a cooked rainbow trout, but all to no avail. When he had suggested a frontal attack on the Flying H riders, he had been gently reminded of the presence of such trigger-happy gunslingers as Danny Johnston and Willie Johns. When he had put up the idea of sending out riders in every direction under cover of darkness, it had taken only moments for someone to remind him that even if they escaped the town, the riders would still have to traverse Flying H range throughout the night, a range patrolled by heavily armed Hugess riders no doubt looking for just such riders, not to say hoping to encounter them.MoreLess

That is silly. The thing to do is to get one of the bandits to the jail and then shoot the prisoner in a kneecap, If the girl is not released than shoot him in the other. And progressively each elbow. By then The big Noise should be able to see more clearly what the next step will be. To show any feeling for the girl is a big mistake. But, I suppose it makes the story... Although the other would be far more interesting to read.Write Review:
