A Paymaster's Flight Across the Great Desert
In the Great American desert a sergeant guards Major B and a small safe on a buckboard. A raiding party of road agents and cowboys attacks. Major B deserts the wagon, and the paymaster escapes with the funds. The narrator laments choosing money over life as Major B continues paying troops. The paymaster is later seen safely at the post, boasting of gallantry as the bandits take nothing from the safe. Alexander Ely.
