Hunt-U.S. Marshal Vol 48 Wl Cox

Hunt's adventure finds Hunt and the men tracking a band of bandits that are the remnants of a band of cut-throats that have ravaged the ports of Seattle for years. With the law hot on their tails, they have crossed Washington, Idaho, Montana, Wyoming, and now Colorado. The gang has attracted other bandits that have joined them, and soon they are of formidable size, even for the Cavalry Fort Lewis unit stationed in Durango called upon to help Hunt and the men. Horse and his bride are expecting their first child, and they are fighting over the baby's name. Their fighting has bothered others in Denver, and has reached the point where Hunt has had to intervene to cease the public hostility and to calm Horse's Navaho wife, Nascha, down. Nascha's temper flares and begins carrying a hunting knife and is threatening Horse and any female that he talks to. Nascha has difficulty understanding what people are saying to her and it angers her more. Gray Wolf travels to the Navaho camp and asks, for her father, Chief Hok'ee, to come to Denver and have a talk with her to save Horse's marriage.
