Eli has been summoned to Washington D.C.
for his special service commendation with the
United States Marshal's Service.
He's met and made friends with a lot of folks
along the way and has even made business
deals that will help his family, his businesses,
and Indian Territory.
His preliminary interviews start out well, before
he's confronted with a few articles in his file at
the U.S. Marshal's Office, that he'd just as soon
they hadn't mentioned. Eli wasn't even aware
they'd been keeping a file on him!
Things do get a little too personal for Eli and he's
real close to telling them to keep their special
service commendation. Luckily things get settled
down again after Eli states his feelings, in a way
that leaves no doubt about where he stands.

'The Legend of Eli Crow - The Young Bucks'
After their harrowing experience with dangerous
predators, the Young Bucks remove the carcasses
from the campsite and dispose of them on the
burning beaver dam.
Before they leave at daylight the next morning,
they set charges of dynamite along the remainder
of the old beaver dam.
Close to midday they arrive at the Barkley
brothers ranch where they warm by the fire,
feed and water their animals, and eat a hot
meal themselves before heading out toward
Crow Ridge.
Their arrival at Crow Ridge was met by all
the family members as they celebrated the
homecoming of the young hunters.
Life on Crow Ridge would almost return
to normal!
I have corrected the corrupted chapter 50
and submitted the complete chapter for re-
posting as soon as possible.
I apologize for the mix up, whatever it was
that happened!

'The Legend of Eli Crow-The Young Bucks' has been

The Young Bucks face even more danger on the
frozen, snow covered plains as they make their way
home from their first deer hunt.
Having encountered a horde of starving predators,
the six boys prepare for a night like none they've
endured in their young lives.
Though danger lurks all round them in the dark,
they have no choice but to rest their horses and
mules.
The decision to stay where there is wood to
build a fire for warmth and for protection, will
prove to be a true test of the skills and wiles
taught them by their dads.
