A QUESTION OF POSSESSION by ANDY ADAMS

A QUESTION OF POSSESSION by ANDY ADAMS

Another great western short story by cowboy author Andy Adams telling of a rancher who had worked for years to build a good ranch with his own brand of horses- who suddenly has an old judgement come up against him- forcing the local sheriff to take horses as collateral.

 In Texas, where this story happens, justice often triumphed over the law- and this was a good example.  Lawmen had to know when to work by the letter of the law and when not to.
