Della had walked onto the porch to water some plants. Nellie was in the kitchen finishing supper for the boarders. Della looked up and saw a buggy heading her way. She laughed that Jim had forgotten his usual supper from Nellie. She started down the steps, going toward the buggy, as Jim was turning the buggy to head out. Della came up to Jim and asked him what he had forgotten. When Della looked up and saw him, her face went ashen, and she turned to run, but it was too late! Della felt her body being pulled into the buggy, and it started to move. She tried to scream, but hands were covering her mouth. She fainted.

Book Description
An out-of-work lawman rides into the hills in search of a runaway killer Before he draws his gun, Tom Dyce waits for John Bass to shoot first. He plugs the killer in the stomach but doesn’t fire again. A marshal’s deputy, Tom has never killed a man in cold blood . . . at least, not yet. The confrontation with Bass sours Tom on working for the marshal. Needing a change, he decides to return home to Thibido and the woman he loved long ago, Aurora Tyne. Before he leaves Rincon, the marshal offers him one last assignment: tracking a fugitive bank robber who has fled into the hills outside of Tom’s hometown. Though he wants nothing to do with bounty hunting, the reward isn’t the only thing that draws him to the chase. Aurora’s life is in danger, and saving her may require murder.

The Spook
Author: Joel Carl
Publisher: Xlibris Corporation
ISBN: 1483694143
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 294
Book Description
The setting for my novel, The Spook, is Nebraska Territory in March May 1861, centered on Fort Laramie. The central character, J. D. Davis, is a guard for an inspector from the general land office who is investigating a fraudulent eighteen-township survey in the vicinity of the Niobrara River. A romance with and marriage to a widow with three children is weaved in the story. The inspector determines the fraud and undertakes to perform the contract and pursue the guilty party. The guilty fight back, attempting murder to stop the report. Davis kills the assassin among the defrauders, known as the Spook, and takes his horse. Davis possesses both a Spencer repeating rifle and a Whitworth sharpshooting rifle through the effort of his wealthy father. A dead shot from an early age with muzzle loaders, Davis has the first repeating rifle seen by the Brule Sioux Indians who are a threat to the surveying. A survivor of the destroyed defrauders sets the Brule Sioux Indians on the surveyors by shooting into the Brule village from a horse that is identified as the Spook horse. The Brule are divided partly because the Spook horse is seen in different places at the same times. A battle takes place in which Davis destroys an entire Brule force and has the army bury all the bodies in a mysterious place and way. The Sioux elders eventually confront Davis with their demand for the bodies, and an interesting finish to the novel takes place.

When Brer Rabbit Meets Coyote
Author: Jonathan Brennan
Publisher: University of Illinois Press
ISBN: 9780252028199
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
An exploration of the literature, history, and culture of people of mixed African American and Native American descent, When Brer Rabbit Meets Coyote is the first book to theorize an African-Native American literary tradition. In examining this overlooked tradition, the book prompts a reconsideration of interracial relations in American history and literature. Jonathan Brennan, in a sweeping historical and analytical introduction to this collection of essays, surveys several centuries of literature in the context of the historical and cultural exchange and development of distinct African-Native American traditions. Positing a new African-Native American literary theory, he illuminates the roles subjectivity, situational identities, and strategic discourse play in defining African-Native American literatures. Brennan provides a thorough background to the literary tradition and a valuable overview to topics discussed in the essays. He examines African-Native American political and historical texts, travel narratives, and the Mardi Gras Indian tradition, suggesting that this evolving oral tradition parallels the development of numerous Black Indian literary traditions in the United States and Latin America.
