Following dinner back at the Circle J, Johnny grabs his father’s elbow and says, “We need to talk outside.” John Sr. looks at him suspiciously and says, “I’ll follow you.”
“In town Sam mentioned that the Reynolds’ rider is regaining his health. Jake told us that the council is writing the governor requesting a federal marshal until they can find a replacement for a sheriff.”
“That won’t happen right away if I know the governor. But it’s something we have to be concerned about. It’s almost seven months now that we hit the Martin’s place. With the Reynolds’ rider regaining his strength we need to move on them soon before he can be an asset to them. I want you to start scouting their place so we can hit them in a couple of weeks.”
“Are we going to use the same tactics as before?” “Yes!”
