註釋When young Eli Cantwell lost his wife and child during child birth, his world came apart. He left his cabin with all its sweet memories and took up a trek west to see if he could forget the bad memories and try to rebuild some good ones. He was a crack shot with a pistol or rifle as many of his adversaries found out most too late. His good looks attracted women of several races. His gun skills earned him a reputation and a nick name El Halcon, the Hawk. Two white streaks of hair over both ears across the side of his head virtually branded him with that name, although he answered to his given name, Eli without shame.His travels throughout the west in New Mexico and gold mining adventures provided him with enough gold to allow him to partner with two attractive sisters. His fortunate friendship with a skilled gunsmith led to the development of a superior rifle and shotgun. This modified Sharpes Buffalo rifle provided an unbeatable rifle, accurate up to a thousand yards, with an excellent telescope. A gold mining venture into the Superstition Mountains and the gold he found along with an old prospector and two of the women he rescued permitted him to become partners with the two women in a cattle ranch. The rescued women fell in love with him for a time, but all love does not last forever.
