Beadle's New York Dime Library No. 938

1896 · 32 pages

This issue of the Cheadle & Adams pulp weekly contains the opening chapters of "Posy Pete, the Sunflower Sport," a Western adventure serial by William R. Eyster, known for tales like "The Tie-to Sport" and "Faro Frank." Chapter I, "Neck or Nothing," introduces Poker Paul Wayland pursuing Faro Fantine (a faro dealer) along a river trail near Right Bower. When Paul threatens to control her through force, Fantine whips her mustang, which bolts uncontrollably toward a cliff edge. A young mine worker named Thomas Gregory catches her as she leaps from the runaway horse. Paul arrives, dismisses Gregory rudely, and the young man challenges him when Paul speaks disrespectfully to Fantine. She intervenes, warning Paul she'll shoot him if he harms Gregory. The narrative emphasizes action, romantic tension, and frontier conflict, with detailed descriptions of horsemanship, danger, and character confrontation typical of period Western pulp fiction.
