The Case Of The Petrified Man (2013) - Plot & Excerpts
Pinkerton and the Petrified Man Ledger Sheet 28 I RAN BACK DOWN the steep mountainside between buildings, the way I had come. When I got to the manure pile behind the Flora Temple Livery Stable I saw that Martha was still safe in her barley sack. But smoke was pouring up & flames were licking at the roof of the stable & I could hear horses whinny inside. Those two pretty white mares were in danger. And that buckskin mustang, too. Without pausing for thought, I ran to the little back door o f the stable, the one I had left unbolted. I opened it & a blast of heat nearly knocked me back. But the flames had not quite reached the rear stalls. I saw Sissy & Sassy rearing up and pawing the air in terror. I ran to them & undid the latch on their stall door & opened it & stood back. They thundered past me through the narrow door into the scent of fresh night air. I heard shouting and saw figures through the smoke, leading horses out through the front. Only one other horse remained in the stables.
