The Bride Comes To Yellow Sky — Stephen Crane

On board a train steaming toward the Texas town of Yellow Sky are the marshal of Yellow Sky, Jack Potter, and his bride. Meanwhile, the town villain, Scratchy Wilson, is on the prowl. He's drunk and belligerent, with a revolver in each hand, and when none of the townspeople accepts his offer to fight, goes to Potter's home to await the marshal's return.
