Arkansas Manhunt — W.L. Cox

Hunt helps to get the next class started and decides to visit Centralia, North Dakota, and Butte, Montana to see how the new offices are coming together. Hunt receives a heated letter from Garrett Davis, the Senator from Kentucky expressing his distaste for his son's location and demands a reassignment in the East. Hunt rides with Bill and the men on a detail in the Dakota territory to a small community consisting of a Wells Fargo Stagecoach stop, and a small trading post, known as Aberdeen. A stagecoach had been stopped and was robbed. One man was dead, and the driver was wounded. Hunt continues to Butte to visit Zip Diamond and his men and finds one man had been seriously wounded by a drunken miner that thought the Deputy was spying on his mining claim. Hunt returns to the Academy and has to intervene when one of the boys has failed his written exam and refuses to accept the fact that he is being rejected by the U.S. Marshal Service. Hunt likes the boy's no-quit attitude and sets out to help him pass the written exam. Hunt travels to New Orleans to help his old friend, U.S. Marshal Troop Peterson when four of his men ride into an ambush and two are seriously hurt.
