On occasion even the big-wigs have to travel, and the best way to breach the long distances is by rail. In the late 1800s there weren’t practical alternatives, so the well-to-do sometimes endured the not-so-well-to-do while riding. This time, Ernest J. Puffinstuff is on his way to inspect his claim at the Lost Wanderer silver mine in Denver when outlaws, no doubt tipped off to Mr. Puffinstuff/s presence, pursue, penetrate and (predictably) parley for Puffinstuff’s cash. Save the train, and Mr. Puffinstuff, because friends are good to have. Ones in high places- so much the better.
Your favorite mare has bolted through a broken fence and as you catch up to her, you see several armed men ahead on the trail, waiting for the poor creature to come and be captured. Save your horse, and then yourself, because they decided not to wait- here they come!

It seems it’s been months since you have seen the sun, and when you did it felt as cold as the wintry wind running across the plains. The going’s been long, rough and taxing on your supplies, so it’s with great relief that spring finally arrives. Spring brings forth flowers, leaves, and other signs that the great pattern of life has begun to repeat once again. But the spring also awakens a herd of hungry hounds, all hankering for a hearty helping of your potable provisions.
