"The Sheriff of Badger: A Tale of the Southwest Borderland" by George Pattullo is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story centers around Lafe Johnson, a cowboy who arrives in Badger and eventually navigates a series of complex relationships and conflicts. As he interacts with the local community, particularly with Mrs. Floyd and her husband, he becomes embroiled in developing tensions that lead him to a pivotal role as the town's sheriff. The opening of the novel introduces Lafe Johnson as he arrives at the Lazy L Ranch, showcasing his character through his interactions with the ranch crew and his previous acquaintance with Mrs. Floyd. There’s an atmosphere of camaraderie punctuated by humor and hints of underlying tensions as Lafe reflects on the nature of men and their actions. As he settles into the community, he finds himself pulled into complications involving jealousy, rumors, and confrontations with characters like Mrs. Tracey and Buffalo Jim. The narrative establishes Lafe’s position as a likable yet complex figure, setting the stage for his eventual election as sheriff and the challenges that lie ahead in this lawless borderland.
