The Pre emption Right Or Dicks Signature To A Land Claim

A chaotic tale unfolds around Dick Melsey and Kelsey as a courtly card game determines life or death for a stranger accused of theft. The group binds the stranger and plans a midnight execution, but mercy almost spares him until a final gunshot ends the confrontation. Dick, winning the land claim, gains control while the doomed outsider dies.
