The Paxman Feud

by Dwight Bennett

Jim Branch was in sore need of a job. He'd been down on his luck the last few years and when young Wes Caufield hired him on to find out who was stealing his cattle he didn't say no-even though it meant he'd be little more than a hired gun. Branch didn't know the job would put him dead center of a crossfire between the Paxman brothers-and that he'd have to stay there as a handy target to solve the mystery of the missing cattle. But between outgunning Vern Paxman and his toughs and out-thinking Floyd Paxman, Branch figured out how the celebrated Paxman feud had benefited none other than the Paxman brothers themselves.
