Doc Holliday page 2 by ric gustafson
John Holliday looked out the window of the lead passenger coach. It was late April. A mid day sun stood high in a cloudless sky. It had taken six days for the train to reach Dallas. The train approached the depot. Everyone on the train including John was eager to get off.
When the train stopped, John took down his carpet bag from an overhead luggage rack. He walked out onto the train platform. He nodded at the nearby conductor.
" I'm new to Dallas". John smiled. " Could you recommend a good hotel?".
" The Regent". The conductor scratched his chin." Best hotel in Dallas".
John watched as a porter put his steamer trunk and carpet bag onto a hand cart.
" Where to Sir?".
" The Regent Hotel".
