n 1873, when Reuben Lee arrived in the Wyoming Territory by train
from Philadelphia, tired, hungry and virtually penniless, he had no
idea that in a few short weeks he would be called "The Gunfighter."
In his own mind, Reuben was a failure. While his brother lay a hero
on the field at Gettysburg, Reuben had spent the war years adding
endless columns of figures. The small amount he embezzled barely
bought him a coach class ticket to Morgan City WY. And in Morgan
City, Reuben found clean white shirts and high starched collars
were no substitute for calloused hands and a pair of sturdy work
boots. Ollie Swenson gave him a job, grudgingly. But then Ollie had
begrudged everyone and everything since his wife died. Selling
otherwise worthless land to Ollie and his group of Swedish
immigrants had seemed a good idea to Pontius Morgan at the time,
but now their fences were ruining "his" grazing land. He offered to
buy them out for ten cents on the dollar, and when they wouldn't
sell, he turned to other methods.
