LeBlanc Station

Del Page isn't looking for trouble when he rides into LeBlanc Station, but he sure enough finds it. The road beyond the station is blocked by men who have a grudge against the crook who runs the station. Del needs to find a way out, and it won't be easy. A woman at the way station wants out, too. She's the widow of a man who used to run with this gang, and she's a little bit pregnant. Del doesn't turn his back on her, even though it means more trouble.
