Hamer decided to answerthreats to his authority by calling theturn on both the dog and its master.He stomped into the lobby, two handspoised on two Colt .38's. The dog snarledand began edging toward him when he entered.The hotel man's fingers strayed towarda Smith & Wesson Terrier concealedin his pocket."'One more move toward your gun," Hamerwarned, "and you'll make a move for thebuzzards." His left hand lunged over thedesk and grabbed the Terrier in a quickfrisk of the braggart.The dog leaped forward. "Sic 'em, Tige!"the hotel man screamed.Fangs sank into Hamer's boot. Raisingthe Terrier, the marshal pulled on the trigger.The bullet crashed into the dog's brain.Hamer kicked aside the bloody shell."Better bury your dog," he drawled. "Andif you raise any more ruckus in this town, I'llbe measurin' you for the graveyard."For two years and a half, Frank Hamer'sColts kept pacifying and purifying Navasota.They were drawn as marching orders for thedealers of crooked cards.

Afterwardshe served as a special deputy sheriff routinggangs of brand burners and fence cutters inthe hill country of his boyhood.Other commissions followed in other areasof the Lone Star State.

He expected to continue at freelancelawing as a career.Then a man he'd never seen changed hismind. The man was a strutting, illiterateAztec peasant with a grandiose dream ofbuilding an empire stretching across bothhanks of the Rio Grande.
