The Spirit of Iron Eyes
“The ridge appeared to go on forever in either direction. The sight that greeted his eyes chilled him to the bone.
He had never imagined in his wildest dreams that he would see so many Apache Indians in one place at the same time. Luckily for him, they had not noticed the mounted law officer on the prairie behind them. He thanked the Lord that the soft sand had muffled the hoofs of his long-legged black mount.

Sweat trickled down from the hatband of his Stetson over his weathered features as he unwrapped the reins again and looped them around the spiky trunk of the Joshua tree.MoreLess
