Description
Excerpt from Gems of Promise: A Western Story IT was just over the Mexican border that Morgan Tuttle, saddle tramp, found the skeleton. He had grown tired of Mexico and riding for the Rancho Oso. Six months in one place was about all that his wandering spirit could stand, and, be sides, he was the owner oi one thousand pesos, which, were he in the United States, would be the equivalent of about five hundred dollars. He had drawn his pay and started northward to ward the border, riding his snip-nosed bay, Lucifer, and driving ahead of him his pack burro, Mono. And within twelve hours' ride from the line he found the gruesome thing which was destined to Change the wandering current of his life. A great mound of rocks had lured him during the noon rest. Ever a lover of nature in all of her many aspects, he decided during his after-dinner smoke that the view of the wide, wild country through which he was traveling would be unsurpassed if one could climb to the top of the rock fiheap. Hence, while his animals rested, he had begun to climb. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
