Reckless Stage Driver Stopped by Westerner on Dead Man's Turn
A western traveler quiet and persistent, chewed squid and watched a reckless stage driver push horses along a perilous canyon road. When the coach neared Dead Man's turn a revolver compelled the driver to halt. The Westerner ordered the reins on the brake and forced the driver to back away from danger. He then ordered the driver to coax the team, while he clung to a tree branch to prevent a plunge.
