FIFTY GUNS AGAINST HIM!
The first warning Bruce Powell got was a bullet screaming past his head from a high bank in the hills to his left.
āIāve got fifty guns covering you!ā roared Que Layton. āRide back!ā
Ride backāand leave Wirt Downer to drive his precious herd into this ambush? Ride backāwhen getting past these killers meant salvaging his dreams of owning a ranch? A sensible man would have turned tail and lived to fight another day. But Bruce Powell wasn't in the mood for senseāand all his time had run out. Heād get past Que Laytonās guns come hell or high water!
