"He's lying in his house a few miles out of Morgantown. As he died he told me that he wanted to be buried in a corner plot in the Morgantown graveyard. He'd seen the place and counted it for his a good many years because he said the grass grew quicker there than any other place, after the snow went." "A damned good reason," said Garry Patterson.
What set men first on fire was the way Pierre le Rouge buried his father "at the point of the gun" in Morgantown. That day Boone's men galloped out of the higher mountains down the trail toward Morgantown. They stole a wagon out of a ranch stable on the way and tied two lariats to the tongue. So they towed it, bounding and rattling, over the rough trail to the house where Martin Ryder lay dead.
He thought of the long miles back to Morgantown; no human being could walk that distance against this wind; not even a strong horse could make its way through the storm. If he went on with the wind, how long would it be before he reached a house? Before him, over range after range of hills, he saw no single sign of a building.
So he came at last to a gap in the hills and looked down on Morgantown in the hollow, twoscore unpainted houses sprawling along a single street. The snow was everywhere white and pure, and the town was like a stain on the landscape with wisps of smoke rising and trailing across the hilltops.
A hillside caught the sound and echoed it back to him with a wonderful clearness, and up and down the long ravine beat the clatter of the flying hoofs. The whole world shouted and laughed and rode with him on Morgantown. If the people in the houses that he passed had known they would have started up from their chairs and taken rifle and horse and chased after him on the trail.
Oddly enough, the tradition of Red Pierre did not begin with his ride from the school of Father Victor to Morgantown, distant many days of difficult and dangerous travel. Neither did tradition seize on the gunfight that crippled Hurley and "put out" wizard Diaz. These things were unquestionably known to many, but they did not strike the popular imagination.
"Here's the first: I want to bury a man in Morgantown and I need help to do it." Black Gandil snarled: "You heard me, boys; blood to start with. Who's the man you want us to put out?" "He's dead my father." They came up straight in their chairs like trained actors rising to a stage crisis. The snarl straightened on the lips of Black Morgan Gandil.
There were times when not even Boone would cross Wilbur, and this was one of them. Pierre went on: "The reason I can't go to Morgantown is that I'm not very well liked by some of the men there." "Why not?" "When my father died there was no money to pay for his burial. I had only a half-dollar piece. I went to the town and gambled and won a great deal.
