Chapter 36 Sharps found it interesting that the arrival and death of the two men from Willow Crick turned out to be nothing more than a nine days wonder in Woody Draw. Even after all the time since Sharps had shot Weatherford, Sheriff Cottyn still hadn’t come to pay them a visit, so Sharps hoped it was safe to assume the man wasn’t suspicious about the cause of Weatherford’s death. Although if anyone ever did ask him, he’d widen his eyes and let them fill with hurt that anyone could think such a thing of him. And if they pressed him, then he would flat-out deny it.
