Bill BoydMidnite (horse)Crowbait (peddler)Leary (robber)

When two armed robbers force Crowbait to hide them in his wagon and later coerce him into retrieving stolen loot from a well, the clever peddler must outwit his captors using nothing but his wits and whatever's at hand.

When young Oswald won't stop hollering through a screen door, his uncle Brainy Buster decides it's time for a lesson in why all that yelling isn't good for the boy's voice.

Windy spins an outrageous yarn about an extraordinarily powerful fish he supposedly caught in the Gulf—one so strong it could haul an anchor back onto his boat, so brilliant he taught it to talk, and so devoted it kept returning to him no matter what. As his tall tale grows wilder and more absurd with each detail, the skeptical fellas listening grow increasingly exasperated, until Windy gets exactly what he was after all along.
