The Ysabel Kid
by J. T. Edson
Part 1 of the Floating Outfit series
His father was Sam Ysabel, a wild Irish Kentuckian who'd come to Texas in the early days and rode as scout to Jim Bowie. His mother was the daughter of Chief Longwalker and his French Creole squaw. That dangerous mixture of bloods produced a son who inherited the sighting eye of an eagle from the sure-shooting, rifle-toting Kentuckian stock. From the French Creole side he got a love of cold steel and the inborn knack of handling a knife. And from his Comanche grandfather he got his horse savvy and ability to read sign where a buck Apache might falter.His full name was Loncey Dalton Ysabel. Most men knew him as … the Ysabel Kid. J.T. Edson brings to life the fierce and often bloody struggles of untamed West. His colorful characters are linked together by the binding power of the spirit of adventure -- and hard work -- that eventually won the West. With more than 25 million copies of his novels in print, J.T. Edson has proven to be one of the finest craftsmen of Western storytelling in our time. J.T. Edson describes a Floating Outfit as a group of cowhands who travel the outer sections of ranchland dealing with problems that occur far from the main house. Dusty Fog, The Ysabel Kid and Mark Counter make up the Floating Outfit at the OD Connected Ranch, and they travel far and wide punching cows and righting wrongs in the old West.

A Horse Called Mogollon
by J. T. Edson
Part 3 of the Floating Outfit series
When Colin Farquharson refused to sell the horse called Mogollon to Beatrice, Vicomtesse de Brioude, her husband swore to make him change his mind. To help him enforce his will upon the Scot, the Vicomte had a bunch of hired killers and a dozen cavalrymen commanded by an ambitious lieutenant besotted by the voluptuous Vicomtesse. Against them, the Scot had ten Mexican mesteneros and three Texas cowhands not yet twenty years of age. They were Ole Devil Hardin's newly-formed floating outfit. Mark Counter, a handsome blond giant with the strength of a Hercules and a brace of real fast guns. The Ysabel Kid, baby-faced but deadly expert in the use of a Winchester rifle or a bowie knife. And their leader. Small, insignificant in appearance, he looked more like the horse-wrangler than the segundo of the biggest ranch in Texas. His name was Dusty Fog.Although the Vicomte did not know it, taking the horse called Mogollon would be far from as easy as he imagined. J.T.

The pattern was always the same when "the Bad Bunch" made their raids.

Then they'd start a fire in another part of town, so that all the local lawmen and officials would have their hands full with that. Then they'd move in on their chosen target.To catch them seemed easy enough for Dusty Fog, Mark Counter and the Ysabel Kid. All they had to do was wait for a county fair, watch out for a fire, and then make sure they were at the bank in time to stop the planned robbery.But even the floating outfit found the Bad Bunch a mite trickier than expected!

The citizens of Moondog, Texas, stood staring at the small, blond, insignificant cowhand-only he seemed to be the biggest man present, towering over his two companions, and neither of them lacked size. Cold fury worked on Dusty Fog's face as he pointed to the signboard announcing the name of the town."My brother came here because you begged for help," he told them. "Danny put his life on the line and you hadn't the guts to back him. So he died. The name of this town's all wrong and I aim to see it put right. You!" His finger stabbed at the Blue Bull Saloon's bartender. "Take your paint brush and cover over 'Moondog' on that sign. Put 'Yellowdog' in its place. Yellowdog, hombre. That's what your town is-it and everybody in it." Slowly, his head hanging in shame, the bartender obeyed; for he and every man in the crowd knew that Dusty spoke the bitter truth. J.T.
