Billy the Kid page 2 by ric gustafson
Billy stumbled through the door and did not see Deputy Olinger. He noticed the Winchester, .50 caliber Sharp and then saw the Whitneyville. He saw Olinger enter the room. " Hello Bob" he said as he pointed the shotgun at his chest. He shot and killed him instantly. Billy hobbled out the front door and down the steps to where Godfrey held the reins to a pony. " Godfrey, help me with these shackles". The old man picked up an ax and broke open the chains.
" Thank you" Billy said as he swung up into the saddle and turned the pony into a trot. " I won't forget it".
Deputy Bell walked out and took a shot with the Winchester. It missed.
Billy rode off in a gallop toward Las Tablas and the Capitans.
