The Floating Outfit 6: Set Texas Back On Her Feet

Colonel Charles Goodnight believed that cattle could be driven to the railroad in Kansas and sold for high prices to supply people in the East with beef.

Austin Viridian went to Fort Worth with the intention of preventing Goodnight’s ideas from being circulated. Soon after his arrival, he came upon a small, blond cowhand who was talking of driving herds to Kansas. Viridian had two hard cases with him when he went to silence the cowhand.
