Western Adventures #5

This anthology issue features "Sheriff Sal," in which a lawman must convince his reluctant love interest to give up her independent ways and marry him, though she resists settling down to domestic life. The issue also prominently advertises "The Cross-Draw Kid" as a featured rip-roaring adventure, along with other exciting stories. A secondary story depicts a romantic entanglement involving characters named Jan and Mary, with complications arising from Jan's past as a reformed gambler, before shifting to action sequences involving a runaway woman on horseback being pursued across desert terrain.
