by W. C. Tuttle
When brooding cowhand Slim Hawkins lets slip that he stands to inherit a fortune—provided he marries and invests ten thousand dollars by month's end—his four Cross J bunkmates take it upon themselves to fix things, sight unseen and sense unsound. W. C. Tuttle's comic romp follows the well-meaning chaos that erupts across Yaller Rock County as the boys buy saloons, cattle, and automobiles on Slim's behalf, only to discover the whole scheme was built on a misread magazine story.
