Coyote That Bites and a Pueblo of Shadows on the Rails
In a desert dawn a brutal Apache killer, “Coyote That Bites,” roams the Colorado wastes after slaughtering Jose Sanches, his wife, and their children, then drags away Mexican gold and a rifle. As he sleeps under hot noon wires, two children, Dubs and Gay, wander near the rails discovering the demijohn, the rifle, and a chance for homeward flight.

Desert misadventure and pursuit in Overland Monthly excerpt
A staged desert episode follows Dubs and Gay as they strip a Coyote-That-Bites of weapon and meat, sparking a chase when the native ally wakes. The scene shifts to a station where a wary mother comforts Gay as the landscape and culture loom, with reflections on dress and the Copts and a miscellany of notices and ads interwoven.
