 The stage was driven by Tom Smith, a young man about twenty years of age. Tom was a man of strength. ne was dark complexioned and had brown eyes, clean white teeth. and black hair. He had a dimple on either cheek. As the stage rattled along over the stones, Tom whistled "Home Sweet Home." AS the stage drew near Death Curve Tom imagined that he smelled trouble in the air. so he drew out both of his six-shooters and kept watch on the road in front of him.
 As the stage was crossing Snake creek, Tom saw something dark be- hind tree. As he drew nearer to the spot, he was confronted by six masked bandits, who were called the Spooks. The Spooks were wanted by the sheriff of Yuma county, who had offered a re- ward of five hundred dollars for the capture of the band.
 Tom was confused at first but at last he got his wits. He hid the six-shooters behind him.
 The Spooks told him to throw out the money, and while they were picking it up he held them up. He took their guns and made them put the money back in the wagon. He made them march in front of him to the next stop. Here he turned them over to the sheriff and received his reward.
