In 1877, they become embroiled in a deadly feud with the Higgins clan until Major John B. Jones dreams up a creative solution. Meanwhile, during the early stages of the problems with the Horrell brothers, a former captain of the State Police, Leander McNelly, creates a militia unit to try to stop the notoriously bloody Sutton-Taylor feud in South Texas.\n \nSELECTED BIBLIOGRAPHY\n“The Texas Rangers: Wearing the Cinco Peso, 1821-1900” by Mike Cox\n“The Ranger Ideal, Vol. 1&2” by Darren L.
