STORY #61

The Capture of The Yellowstone Kid

Rancher Joe Davis took a newlywed couple on a ride in the brand new Yellowstone National Park. They rounded a bend, only to be faced by a shotgun-wielding outlaw. “Up with your hands!” Commanded the masked man.

The men submitted meekly--something about staring at a double-barreled shotgun will make you do that. While the outlaw relieved the men of their cash and watches, the bride pulled a derringer from her purse--meaningfully pointing it, at a certain part of the robber’s lower anatomy. He had no choice but to disarm and surrender--either that, or learn to sing soprano.
