The Ballad of the Cumberland Mountain Hero
Excerpt from a serialized novel featuring Samson South and Wilfred Horton. Mountain man Samson clashes with Horton at a Kenmore club dinner stirred by art patron Farbish. Accusations, jealousy, and a staged frame-up culminate in a violent table upheaval, a pistol, and a tense vow to settle affairs without feuding.
