Nights Of Terror

“Nights of Terror”
A woman of Hugoton, a one horse town, on the Kansas plains tried to help two small Indian children. They died of lung fever in her home. Several months went by and a prominent citizen was found dead on the plains near town. Then the nights of terror started. After dark the town was afraid to go out at night for when someone did, they died. The sheriff was the only man to stop the killing and burning of his town.

The towns and places named in these books are all real. As the Indian Territory came closer to becoming the State of Oklahoma, a lot of the town names changed or simply no longer existed. Towns such as America, Moon, Ida (Battiest), Dookesville, Punkabua (Broken Bow), Bismarck (Wright City), Chance, and Scullyville (Bartlesville), wouldn’t make it after the Indian Territory was awarded statehood, some became ghost towns, or just places with some reminisce of where they was.
This novel in no way reflects on the living or dead when using names. Even if the names might refer to some of your kinfolks or mine.
Towns and places named in Welton Novels were all there at one time. Now they might have the names changed or only be the remembrance of some of the old folks like me. A lot of the towns are underwater, some towns moved to the lakes shore, from the numerous lakes the Corps of Engineers has created in the state of Oklahoma
This is novel and others that follow of stories told from over fifty years ago. One of the men who told some of the stories fought under the only Indian General, Stan Waite of the Cherokee in the Civil War between the States. Other members of the family have delivered food and supplies to Robbers Cave in Oklahoma, as late as 1915 until the Officers of the Law knew about the cave. In addition, they delivered to other places near the cave until the 1930s to what people of the time called the modern day outlaws.
