Klu Klinger: The Colorado Territory

By Bill Shuey

The Colorado Territory is the story of the Bar TC's move from No Man's Land in the Indian Territory to Las Animas County in the Colorado Territory.

Before the trail drive even starts, Klu saved a white girl from Indians, had a run-in with buffalo hunters, and fought off a group of Comanche. He buys land and files homestead claims for 160 acres for each of the Bar TC crew. While on the trip, he marries Melody Rose Goodwill, the girl he rescued from the Indians.

The trail drive from No Man's Land to Las Animas County is only about fifty-five miles. The problems they had with rustlers and Indians made the trip seem like 1,000 miles.

The remainder of the story centers around the building of the ranching operation and fighting to keep the land they have settled on.

The story illustrates the hardships, trials and tribulations of building a ranching operation in the Old West.
