IN BRIEF: Riding near Lone Tree Springs, Hoppy misses the trail and has to circle back. California is excited to see wild pigeons, and wishes he'd brought his shotgun. Someone is following the pair; it turns out to be Zeb Parker, marshal of Argonaut, looking for road agents who've robbed a gold shipment from the stage. Hoppy is looking for a former Bar-20 hand, Red Abbott, who has taken up gold panning. Abbott, says the marshal, is wanted as head of the gang. Wint Huntoon, express agent, agrees to Hoppy's idea of sending out a quick shipment of gold. He's later furious when it's held up, but Hoppy lets him in on a secret: it was really nuts and bolts which Hoppy and California substituted. Hoppy's puzzled; only he and California, the agent and the marshal and his wife Myra knew of the shipment. At night, Red shows up at Hoppy's room and claims he's being framed. His horse was stolen weeks ago. Someone's dyed his hair to look like Abbott, Hoppy speculates. How did word get out? No one was seen leaving town. "Want me to answer it right off, or give it a first class think?" asks California. A later complaint from the old hand spurs Hoppy to see the solution. He sets a new trap, and catches Zeb and Myra, who've used pigeons to send word to cohorts about shipments. (Swanton)
