Call of the Prairie Western Roundup And Shootout

Dave, a faulted cowboy with a haunted prairie conscience, heads to a Crossing saloon to face gambler Duncombe after a brutal round up. A midnight poker duel ends in murder and a deadly prairie chase as Dave seeks vengeance and peace, dying after confessing his fear and prayer.

The Australian Abroad by Albert Dorrington in Stratford

I return to Stratford on Avon to find a wild man named Bill captured near the meadows. The landlord of the King's Head describes Bill as a traveling bushman with a swag and a tent, who spooks locals by pitching a fire in Squire Thorton’s lodge yard and misbehaving with sheep dogs. Bill admits Australian birth and laments being misjudged, claiming freedom on the Avon and recalling sheep shearing scenes in Darling country.
