Summary "Santa Fé's Partner" by Thomas A. Janvier is a work of fiction written in the early 20th century. The story is set in the rugged landscapes of New Mexico, primarily focusing on the rough town of Palomitas during the expansion of the railroad. The tale revolves around colorful characters such as the witty Sage-Brush Hen and the cunning Santa Fé Charley, who engage in various antics amid the lawlessness and disorder that characterize life in this frontier town. At the start of the novel, the narrator shares observations about the people of the Western territories, asserting that they are not as noble as the story-books depict. He describes Palomitas, a makeshift town on the verge of Americanization, populated mainly by Mexicans and a few white settlers, and filled with saloons and dance halls. The narrator's account introduces key figures, such as Santa Fé Charley, a smooth-talking card shark in preacher's clothes, and the Sage-Brush Hen, a lively woman known for her mischief. The opening sets a humorous and chaotic tone, hinting at the comedic schemes and colorful escapades that will unfold in Palomitas. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
