I got home about an hour after dark and after Anna fed me I told her our worries over what Mattson might do were over. When she asked me how that could be possible I told her someone had killed him.

"With him dead and no one being able to pay his boys we should be okay."

And we were.

Over the years Anna gave me two sons and a daughter and we led a pretty happy life.

Cute story, but I'd imagine that poor Anna had a whole passel of sti's and likely syphilis to boot.

Nice Western tale. A couple of minor mispellings, grammar & history mistakes that do not distract from the story line.

In response to katib: the .22 caliber was introduced by Frenchman Nicolas Flobert in 1845 as the ".22 BBC" (Bulleted Ball Cap), intended for indoor parlor shooting - popular at the time. It was the first self-contained metallic cartridge and featured a .22 caliber, 20-grain lead ball seated in a chlorate primed percussion cap with folded rim. There was no other propellant, and cartridge had no sporting use other than a pasttime for the gentry.

In 1857, Smith & Wesson increased the length of Flobert's case by one-third, added 4 grains of FFFFg black powder and seated a 29-grain conical lead bullet on top of it. In 1859, Christian Sharps introduced the 4-barrel Pepperbox (Patent number 22753) in .22 caliber as a self-defense pocket pistol; some 85,000 were made between 1859-1868.

What we today call the .22 Long RIfle was introduced in 1887.

This one had a bit more resolution than the typical JPB story, and the story was better for it.
