This issue features a mix of frontier and adventure fiction. The lead story, "The Spirits of Spirit Lake" by Kathrene and Robert Pinkerton, follows Jimmie Wells, who travels alone by canoe to a Hudson's Bay Company post after his guide refuses to proceed due to Indian superstitions about supernatural spirits inhabiting the lake. "Lure of the Lode" by Stephen Chalmers concerns seven fugitives from justice—"seven breeds"—bound by shared desire for buried diamonds in the desert. "On One Wave" by Hugh S. Fullerton depicts Great Lakes steamboat pilots facing storms. W.C. Tuttle contributes "The Color of His Boots," a lighter tale involving boot polish and prairie misadventure. Other offerings include "Back to the dim blue ranges" by Hapsbnrg Liebe; "One Lone Man" featuring Tom Reagle; and the conclusion of Gordon Young's two-part "From Behind Masks," concerning a conspirator's identity.
