When Jess rode into Stratton, Texas, he made sure that Black Raven’s blanket covered most of his face. He stopped by the jail and looked inside, but John Bodine wasn’t there. He was about to get off his horse when Bodine came walking out of the Stratton Hotel, carrying a sawed off across his arm.

“Who in the hell are you dragging in that sled?” he asked as took his hat off and smiled at Nancy. He frowned at Thorndike, knowing the man all too well. “And what in the hell are you doing working with this knucklehead?”

“It’s a long story and I’ll explain it all to you after we get him to the doctor,” replied Jess impatiently as he slid out of the saddle. Bodine caught the expression on Jess’s face and he frowned. He bent over and lifted the blanket to see an Apache dressed in Jess’s extra set of clothes and he grunted something unintelligible under his breath.

“Are you out of your damn mind bringing an Apache into town with everything that’s been going on around here lately?”

“Keep your voice down,” whispered Jess. “I need you to help me get him to the doctor’s office and then set up in the Stratton Hotel before anyone finds out about him.” Bodine stood up and shook his head back and forth, rolling his eyes up in the back of his head.

“Alright, but after this, we’re even; agreed?” demanded Bodine.

“Agreed,” replied Jess.

“I don’t know if the doctor will even work on him.”

“Maybe we should take him into the hotel first and then call for the doctor,” suggested Jess.
