system, arrived in La Junta he was
weak appearing, inoffensive, quiet and
short-spoken young man who walked
with slight stoop, spoke with drawl
and acted like living apology for him
self. The first trip out. however, when
a train load of bad men" thought they
would take free ride just because it
looked SO easy, Avery inaugurated
novel method of collecting fares. Hav-
ing renewed friendship with Billy the
Kid" the terror of all western terrors,
he employed him as an assistant con-
ductor. The method was this: Billy
and Avery would step into the front and
rear door Of coach simultaneously,
lock the doors and, with rifles leveled,
would shout: Hands up, every moth
er's son of you" Up would go the hands
and then, while Billy kept them COW
cred, Avery would proceed to collect the
fares.
In this manner passenger receipts in
creased amazingly on the Mountain d.
vision, and so did the respect which the
bad men" had for Avery Turner. It
finally got SO he rarely had trouble, and
would always accept an l. o. U. for a
fare with certainty that it would be
made good.
Not long after Turner had established
his standing in the community the bar
tender of the toughest Joint" in Trim
idad came to him for advice.
I'm going to hitch up and drive dou-
ble," said the bartender, "and want to
do the job up in AL style. Now, being
as you're a married man, thought I'd
ask you how much such job ought to
cost"
"Gie some idea of the blowout" re-
piled Turner
well, we're going to Dodge City, go
ing to stop at the SWEETEST joint there for
about two weeks, have all the fun there
Is going and then come home with you -
Turner made a hurried mental call
culation. and then advised his friend
that he believed $500 would do the trick.
