The Men from Poudre Canyon — Dave P. Fisher

The Men From Poudre Canyon - Atlanta carpetbagger Justin Hornsworth finds himself in Fort Collins and eyeing Jean Pelletier's home. Having successfully murdered and swindled his way to wealth in the war weary south he sees no reason why a backwoodsman like Pelletier would offer any resistance to his plan to take the ranch. He didn't know Jean Pelletier. When Jean and his sons put an end to Hornsworth's plan the carpetbagger takes a more vicious trail bent on destroying the man he has come to hate. In a vengeance ridden move his gang kidnaps four of the Pelletier women from Jean and Andre's families with the intention of selling them to a white slaver in New Orleans. Believing he has dealt a killing blow to Jean Pelletier he revels in his victory not realizing that when you take on one Pelletier you take them all on. Hornsworth's grave just needed to be filled in the day the men from Poudre Canyon took to his trail.
