at www.1stWorldLibrary.ORG - - It may seem strange to you that out
of all the stories I heard on the Rio Grande I should choose as
first that of Buck Duane - outlaw and gunman. But, indeed, Ranger
Coffee's story of the last of the Duanes has haunted me, and I have
given full rein to imagination and have retold it in my own way. It
deals with the old law - the old border days-therefore it is better
first. Soon, perchance, I shall have the pleasure of writing of the
border of to-day, which in Joe Sitter's laconic speech, "Shore is
'most as bad an' wild as ever " In the North and East there is a
popular idea that the frontier of the West is a thing long past,
and rememb-ered now only in stories. As I think of this I remember
Ranger Sitter when he made that remark, while he grimly stroked an
unhealed bullet wound. And I remember the giant Vaughn, that
typical son of stalwart Texas, sitting there quietly with bandaged
head, his thoughtful eye boding ill to the outlaw who had ambushed
him. Only a few months have passed since then - when I had my
memorable sojourn with you - and yet, in that short time, Russell
and Moore have crossed the Divide, like Rangers.
