WYATT EARP
by Oren Arnold
In a Western boom town one
day, Marshal Wyatt Earp was guard-
ing a prisoner. Down the street coame
a mob of 400 armed men bent on
hanging the outlaw. Wyatt stepped
out with a shotgun.
"Stop where you are!" he roared,
and the crowd halted. "I've got two
loaded barrels, and I'll kill the first two men
that take another step toward me!"
Seconds passed, then minutes. Finally
the angry mob backed away. The prisoner
was not lynched; dignity of the law had
been upheld by a courageous man.
Many such true stories are known about
Wyatt Earp, whose famous guns left trails of
smoke and danger in Dodge City, Tomb-
stone, Nome, Colton and many another
Western town. His pistols and his deadly
aim, it is said, upheld law and order more
than any other single
force in our frontier

era. And yet Wyatt
Earp is remembered
as a soft spoken, quiet
mannered man.
