....finishing the final chapter of out West with John Henry & Jack long...

              This will be the final Chapter in the life & times of John Henry and Jack long  of their adventures in the Wild West.

       After the devastating blow to him after coming back from hunting with Lilly, to find his family slaughtered at the hands of some renegade Comaches, it made John Henry that much more strong willed and defiant of any thing that may get in his way.
       He and lilly traveled for awhile together until it was evident that he had to go on his own so that she would not be harmed. He soon joined the Rough Riders as one of their youngest, albeit toughest, one to join.
      Then he moved on to be on his own, as he knew that was the only path for him, when so much was tormenting him. Going from one Town to the other, taking jobs where he could find them. One almost got him killed when he got tied up with a Gang lead by a young man, they called hm the 'Kid'...Billy the Kid...
     
      About this time Jack Long was riding the trails from East to West as a cow-hand and trail boss in charge of hundreds of cattle going to market in the Mid-West...
      Jack was well-seasoned with the Cattle and wild Horse drives, and was recommended through out the West. 
       Then one night he got into a fight with a local at one of the towns they had a stop over in, and, well it didn't go so well for the local...not knowing who he was up against, he got in a fight that brought them into the street for a show down. Jack was the fastest, and dropped that poor guy like a sack of potatoes. Even though it was a fair fight, Jack was asked to leave the Cattle Drive, since they need to keep up good relations with  all the towns they passed through.
      
       Jack, left up to his own means, began running wild Horses from Colorado to Texas and back. Also trips up North as far as Canada.
      
      That's when he meets up with John Henry and starts a long strained and tumultuous relationship that leaves us with them heading to California with another powder keg of a human...Grover...

      We shall pick up later and find out how far this strange trio will make it in their Quest to find fortune,since they already have the Fame.....

       
      Hope you all enjoyed our trip out West and will try to continue the Tale as soon as possible...thanks....
