006 - Chapter Vi The Orphan Obeys An Impulse

In a rugged world where danger lurks at every turn, many have condemned The Orphan, a man notorious for his ruthless ways. While the majority express their disdain with mere words, a few have dared to take action, proving their folly in the face of his menace. Sheriff Jim Shields is on a relentless quest to bring this notorious outlaw to justice, a man accused of the brutal murder of sheepherders. Although often considered the second installment in Clarence Mulford’s Hopalong Cassidy series, this thrilling tale does not feature Hoppy, but it promises to deliver an exhilarating ride through the Wild West. - Summary by sjmarky
