The lone
cowboy leaped from the saddle and took refuge behind the pile of rocks at the
edge of the trail. Already arrows were whistling around him, and the war
hoops of the Indians were loud in his ears.
It would take all of “Quick draw”
Thompson’s courage and determination to get him safely out of this peril. Not
only was his life at stake, but those of the settlers sleeping peacefully in
their log cabins in the lovely valley below. It was so long since there was
an Indian rising that the Palefaces had become careless. Their guns were
seldom to hand, and their look outs had begun to think that they were wasting
their time peering out across the prairie for an enemy that never came. The
Redman had chosen the time carefully. Lone Elk had seen to that!
