    About this ebook

    They were mean, all three of them. They had been travelling hard for four days and there hadn’t been much food or rest or water. The bay mare had a kick like a Colt .45, the big Kentucky mule had bitten man and horses from Missouri to the far west, and the man ... the man was the meanest of the lot. Sam Spur – his name meant death!
