Night Ride to Deadwood Tracks Cattle Rustlers
A cattle raid prompts a late night stagecoach chase from Canon Springs to Deadwood. The narrator partners with a drunken fellow passenger to sing Sunday hymns during the brutal deep freeze journey. After two days and nights, the rustlers are traced to Whitewood Gulch and Deadwood, with the narrator recouping losses and noting eventual fates of the culprits.
