September 26

Dust swirled behind the dark-suited parson in the wide-brimmed black hat. A handful of headstones, plain wooden crosses and crudely lettered memorials marked the graves of those buried in the overgrown cemetery north of town. Longstreet stood at the graveside flanked by the bartender and two black-clad whores from the Rusty Spike.

The parson murmured a familiar passage reading from a well-worn bible. “The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want…”

Longstreet’s mind drifted away. She saved his life. He’d enjoyed her company, connected with her in a way he didn’t understand and couldn’t explain. He’d treated her in a way most men wouldn’t. No more than he might have done for any decent woman. Maybe that was it. He’d seen decency where most never bothered to look. In that he may have given her something of value. Something she thought she might never have. She’d saved his life for it. He’d never forget her. It might not be much, but it was more than she had before they met.
