Stagecoach Robbery Joke Ends in Bloodshed
The tale recalls a staged hold up near Hill Top where a red whiskered rider opened fire, killing Joe Harper after a supposed joke. The outsized gunfight left passengers terrified as the assault unraveled the ruse and ended with Harper dead and the joke backfiring. The narrative shifts to a Russo Turkish War episode and then ad copy about starch and real estate listings, concluding with a giraffe fact about birth.
