Newspaper Spring

By: Jesse Storm

Narrated by: Virtual Voice

John Biles wakes in the back of a strange family’s wagon, and his whole life is in ruin.

John’s family is riding their way to El Paso to establish a newspaper. His father is a newspaper man, and the rest of the family works in the print shop. Descended upon by a group of Indians who talk like white men, John’s family wagon is besieged, leaving his parents and sister dead.

Wounded, John is found by the Jensen family whose wagon is on its way to a massive piece of land they’ve inherited on the outskirts of Whistle Springs.

The property inherited has a natural spring from which the town takes its name. The spring taps into a large underground water supply, potentially making the town a major stop in the region.

But as John is only just recovering with the Jensen family, they are attacked by the same band of Indians. The latest midnight assault sees the pacifist John taking up arms to defend his new family – especially the beautiful Helen who has been nursing him back to health.

Nothing yet makes sense to John.

The only thing clear is to him is that he will answer fire with fire.
