Summary | "Reputation" by W. C. Tuttle is a short story likely written in the early 20th century. This narrative unfolds in a small mission village called Santa Ynez, located near the Mexican border, where the villagers are gripped by fear and curiosity surrounding a notorious killer known as El Tigre, or the Tiger. The story explores themes of fear, reputation, and the nature of bravery as the characters face the looming threat of the infamous bandit. The plot centers around the villagers' conversations in a cantina as they speculate about the infamous Jeff Tigard, a figure known for his ruthless reputation. As a violent storm engulfed the village, the Tiger himself enters the cantina, demanding gold from the frightened locals and bullying Felipe, the bartender. Just as his intimidation seems to reach its peak, a mysterious stranger appears, who reveals the truth behind the Tiger’s identity and previous wrongdoings. In a twist of fate, the stranger triumphantly disarms the Tiger without a fight, exposing him for what he truly is—an unmasked coward—before riding off into the stormy night, leaving the villagers both relieved and bewildered.
