The Indians send signals from the rocks above the pass


The cowboys take position in the bushes and the grass


The squaw is with the corporal, she is tied against the tree


She doesn't mind the language, it's the beating she don't need

She lets loose all the horses when the corporal is asleep


And he wakes to find the fire's dead and arrows in his hats


Or something like that

Started off with the two bags of Native mounted figures. Over 200 of them!
