True Spit...The Western (10 Min)

by Kris Thompson

Black Bart is in jail having robbed the bank with an unknown partner, the money is still missing, and the Sheriff is killed by an unknown masked gunslinger when Constant Delight appears on the scene masquerading as the new Schoolmarm. There's a contest to see who will be the new Sheriff. Sharp shooting, horseback riding, and chaw spitting. Constant Delight participates, but not because she wants to be Sheriff!
