From the writer and producer of “A Sportsman’s Paradise” brings you the story of “Bartholomew and the Fair Maiden.” Part one is the introduction of three-part series into the real and tragic love story between William Masterson and Mollie Brennan. The story narrated by Brad Smalley tells how William Masterson after leaving the buffalo hunting fields takes a job as a teamster hauling supplies between Fort Dodge and Fort Supply. It is at Fort Supply where Masterson first meets his nemeses a Corporal Melvin King. King is chased out of Fort Supply while William Masterson and 106 freighters lead by Billy Dixon move provisions to the new fort cantonment located along Sweetwater Creek. During their travel on the Jones and Plummer trail, Masterson ruminates the “Battle of Buffalo Wallow.” Masterson’s story is interrupted by the fierce winter storm of December 16, 1874. Only a few freighters make it through the storm, forcing Masterson to spend the remainder of the winter at Fort Elliot where he meets Ben Thompson. Purchase the book A Man in a Black Derby Hat at Amazon.
