Apache Gold Joseph A Altsheler

Apache Gold, A Story of the Strange Southwest Charles Wayne yearned for life in the mountains but his prison was the little railroad station where he was agent and telegrapher for a small salary. Jefferson was not a large place, consisting of two buildings, the station and the water tank. So when Charles walked outside in search of distraction he was surprised to find plenty. First there was an elderly man with a large, red mustache accompanied by a slender boy. Then, an impoverished tramp by the name of Ananias Brown. Within the next few hours, Mr Brown would be dead and Charles would submit his resignation, more determined than ever to leave boredom behind to chase a life filled with rugged adventure.
