Subject Matter
Character(s): Ex-sheriff Blake; head councilman; Sheriff Hawk Mason; Bull Barton; six gunmen
Synopsis: Blake complains he did his best, but he's no gun-hand, and that the only reason Mason could have courage against the lawless element is because he has two guns and is expert with both hands. Half the gunmen have left already. Mason arrives, ignores gunman Bull who awaits to face him. So unnerved by Mason's unconcern, Bull bolts, and the rest follow. Mason asks directions, reveals one gun is empty, and the other has temporarily blinded him when it misfired and broke. He rode in town, blinded, no bullets, knowing gunmen were looking to take him on. What courage!
