Fifty years ago a lone hunter sought deer on Peach Creek and found a cave hidden by bushes. He hid from a raiding party of Comanche Indians, shot one warrior, then endured a deadly battle as arrows pierced him until he died at sunset in the cave with his rifle, powder horn, knife, and ring nearby.
An elderly farmer, after a busy Christmas shopping in Shiner, is robbed on a dark wagon ride home. The attackers shoot him, overturn the wagon, and flee as his children discover his body amid spilled bundles and gifts for their Christmas. The note warns readers to leave money at the bank to deter robberies.
