Wyatt Earp, Frontier Marshal #36
"Massacre At Red Rock" depicts Wyatt Earp's intervention during tensions between the U.S. military and Cheyenne Indians over land possession near Dodge City. A prisoner named Hollis, released from jail by Deputy Feller, attempts to start a confrontation that would ignite conflict on the frontier. Earp discovers Hollis's treachery, captures him, and pursues him across the desert; after a struggle, Hollis falls into a ravine. Earp then ensures peace by reaching the town before further violence can occur.
