Reckon it was sometime in June, ‘round ‘47, down near Eagle Pass. You know that ol' cowboy, James VanDerHorn? Well, he claims he was startled awake by a noise he couldn’t quite place.

James was as confused as a possum in a pear tree, so he made a beeline for the barn, figuring he’d better protect his livestock. Before he knew it, he was bein' pulled towards that glowing light, his horse getting dragged along with him, and he was certain this was the end.
