Pioneer Jacob Hurnap and Pollys lone frontier home
In a remote early settlement near Horsehead, hunter Jacob Hurnap lives with his wife Polly and their nine year old child. Their sparsely peopled frontier is tense as a lone horseman, Lans Morton, visits Polly at dusk and joins for supper while Jacob is away fourth day. Morton plans to stay twelve hours, sharing the neighborhood news and rumors of the Eastern valley. Polly, armed and capable, remains wary yet confident in their safety, while Morton’s presence highlights isolation and trust in this small frontier community.
