"The Wide World Magazine, Vol. 22, No. 130, January 1909" by Various is a collection of adventure narratives and illustrated articles penned in the early 20th century. This volume highlights captivating tales, with particular attention to frontier life, exploration, and action-packed accounts that reflect the spirit of the time. A standout piece describes the story of Jim Cutler, a gambler in Three Corners, Montana, whose chivalrous actions to defend a schoolmistress embroil him in a tumultuous "war" against local malefactors. The opening of this volume introduces Jim Cutler, a wary but well-regarded gambler, who finds himself drawn into conflict when he protects a local schoolmistress named Miss Thurloe from the unwanted advances of a draper named Goldman. After Cutler bravely intervenes in an attack, he becomes an outlaw when Goldman retaliates with a gunshot aimed at Cutler. The narrative escalates into a wild pursuit as Cutler defies the law, leading to a manhunt characterized by gunfights and tactical evasion. His plight showcases themes of honor, justice, and bravery, set against the backdrop of the rugged American frontier. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
