“From dawn to dusk, and often after dark as well if the trail was marked well enough, Dakota Charlie Payne kept the wagon and its outriders moving. From the few brief glimpses Luke got of the outside world, he thought they were heading in a generally southerly direction. Maybe a little southwest. He didn’t see much of the world, though. For the most part his entire universe was the inside of the jail wagon. His muscles grew so cramped and weak from being tied up that he wasn’t sure he would ever... be able to walk normally again. Payne and his other captors gave him barely enough food and water to subsist on, which contributed to his weakened condition. His beard and hair grew, and he supposed he was starting to look like a man who had been trapped on a deserted island. “Robinson Crusoe Jensen,” he muttered one day as he remembered the character from a novel he’d read. The heat during the day began to grow worse, which was another indication that they were heading south. It had been chilly in Wyoming, but nothing like it would be later in the autumn and winter.MoreLessRead More Read Less
