  1. Begins: Gordon Lillie stood in the doorway of the restaurant, his gaze roving idly over one of the strangest medleys of humanity a man ever looked upon. It was Saturday afternoon in Caldwell. Bronzed, chap-clad cowboys, from nearby ranges or stopping enroute from their fatiguing herd riding, rubbed elbows with roughly dressed railroad laborers, for the Santa Fe extension was not yet finished and Caldwell was the haven of the thirsty souls who worked along the right of way.
