The Ballad of Cable Hogue Page #7
Synopsis: Double-crossed and left without water in the desert, Cable Hogue is saved when he finds a spring. It is in just the right spot for a much needed rest stop on the local stagecoach line, and Hogue uses this to his advantage. He builds a house and makes money off the stagecoach passengers. Hildy, a sex worker from the nearest town, moves in with him. Hogue has everything going his way until the advent of the automobile ends the era of the stagecoach.

He didn't need to.
The whole desert was his cathedral.
Hold up!
I'm coming in tonight.
Hogue loved the desert...
...Ioved it deeper than he'd ever say.
He built his empire...
...but was man enough to give it up
for love when the time came.
Lord, as the day draws toward evening,
this life grows to an end for us all.
We say adieu to our friend.
Take him, Lord.
But knowing Cable,
I suggest you do not take him lightly.
Amen.
