Lando (1962)
“and a few dozen other times along the trail.
We both just sat there and let whoever it was ride right up to the fire.
And when that slim-legged, long-bodied horse came into the firelight and I saw who it was, I couldn't believe it. Nor could Miguel.
If we'd seen the ghost I'd been expecting, we wouldn't have been more surprised.
It was Gin Locklear.
Chapter Six.
She rode side-saddle, of course, her skirt draped in graceful folds along the side of the horse, her gloved hand holding the bridl...e reins just as if she hadn't ridden miles through bandit-infested country to get here. She was just as lovely as when I last saw her.
She taken my breath. Coming up on us out of the night so unexpected-like, and after all the goings-on outside of camp ... I hadn't a thought in my head, I was that rattled.
It came on me that I'd best help her from the saddle and I crossed over and took her hand, but it was not until she was actually on the ground that I saw the dark shadows under her eyes and the weariness in her face.MoreLess

Jem Mace was NOT the first boxer who introduced skil into the sport. Lamour is wrong as usual. A 100 years before Mace there was aJewish fighter named Daniel Mezoda. %'7" weight 150-60 lbs. It was HE who introduced skill and footwork into boxing and was champion of England, beating men twice his size, until he fought "Gentleman" Jackson" who was NO gentleman He caught Mendoza by the hair, a blatant foul and held his beag under his arm and bet his face. Still Mendoza was not KO'd but was almost choked to death and had to concede.MENDOZA Brought skill and excellent footwork never seen before, into boxing.
