IN BRIEF: Riding the Alta Mesa stage, Hoppy befriends a young woman, Jessie Meredith, who plans to open a dress shop, and Ben Farley, who has just bought a ranch. A couple weeks later, Hoppy receives a letter saying that Ben is in trouble. He's refused to pay the $1 a head a month Bill McGrath, the "King of Cinnabar," is asking to board his cattle on range that has water. Instead, Ben is trying to convince the other ranchers to help dam Cash Creek for a new water source. McGrath has an engineer, Starbuck, killed and replaced with his own man. He plots to blow up the creek. California coerces a confession out of him by shooting into the boxes of dynamite. Later, Hoppy says he needs smelling salts to revive his pard, who fainted when he learned how dangerous his shooting was. (Swanton)
