Lash La Rue Western #67
A protest over Lash La Rue's residency in the county leads to a wager: if Lash can be beaten in a fight, he must leave town. A week later, the challenge is accepted, but Lash emerges victorious, prompting his challenger to blame Luke Linsil, a gunslinger whom Lash has previously bested. In "Gun-Shy," people spread rumors that Lash cannot draw a gun due to glove damage, prompting the gunfighter Keno Riggs to challenge him to a duel and test whether Lash can truly handle a firearm.
