"Outlaw Jack; or, the Mountain Devil" by Jos. E. Badger is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story centers around a group of emigrants traveling toward California during the height of the gold rush in 1850. The narrative introduces several key characters, including Burr Wythe, Paley Duplin, and Jack Tyrrel, who become embroiled in a quest for gold while facing various challenges, including the tragic death of one of their companions and the lurking threat of violence and betrayal. The opening of the novel sets a dramatic tone, beginning with a somber scene of mourning for Mrs. Mitchell, who has died after a tragic accident. As the group of emigrants navigates their grief, two young men, Wythe and Duplin, discuss their ambitions and the potential for wealth. They soon uncover a nugget of gold, igniting their desire to explore further. The tension escalates with the introduction of Nate Upshur, whose suspicious behavior hints at treachery among the group. As the characters grapple with themes of greed, loss, and survival, the stage is set for a thrilling adventure marked by moral dilemmas and the chilling specter of the "Mountain Devil."
