    About this ebook

    ...But a stranger finally did come into town after dusk the third day. He was tall, young, slim, knew how to ride a horse and wore his six-gun in a knowing manner. His jaw looked lean and tough, and his eyes were gray and hard as steel. The Deadly-Hand Kid, latest regular citizen of Rock Castle, had arrived in his adopted home town!

      A Stranger With Six-Guns - Will T. Earp

      IN THE little town of Rock Castle, at the edge of the desert country, the recognized social center was known as Hank’s Place, though it was as much Ike’s as Hank’s, since Ike Cumway and Hank Redlan were partners.

Citizens of Rock Castle thought that it was a weakness to pay taxes unless the sheriff came in person to collect them.

      Rock Castle had a half dozen small buildings that housed business enterprises—a small bank, a blacksmith shop, a livery stable and corral, a restaurant operated by a Chinaman, and a cobbler’s shop. And then there was Hank’s Place.

      The Place was a big frame building with a false second story front. A partition clove the building into two long rooms. There was a wide open doorway in this partition. On one side was a general store and postoffice, presided over by Ike. On the other side was the bar, gambling room and dance hall combined, under the supervision of Hank.

      Inside Hank’s Place, a dozen men loafed against the bar. On the other side
