First sentence: It's bad enough to go down in history as an S.O.B., but even worse when your good name is damned by a combination horse thief and stage robber who attempted to cloak his thievery under the guise of being a Confederate raider.
Description: The crusty characters who prospected the gold streams, worked in the mines and in general pioneered the Rockies of Colorado are the unsung "heroes" of Fred Huston's "Tales of the Rockies." One group were summarily awarded – and probably earned – the somewhat notorious sobriquet of "Those S.O.B.'s at Tarryall."
