Lion of the Lavabeds — Walker A. Tompkins

The Indian Kintupash was a foe worthy of Bob Pryor, the Rio Kid. This savage warrior combined subtle cunning with lion-like courage as he led his marauding band against the white settlers. Pryor grudgingly admired the enemy who was leading him deeper and deeper into danger - while a white traitor waited for a clear shot at the Rio Kid's back.
