| 520 | _a"The Long Arm of the Mounted" by James French Dorrance is a novel written in the early 20th century. The story revolves around Sergeant John Childress of the Royal Canadian Mounted Police, who is drawn into a conflict involving stock theft across the border, particularly with a strong-willed young woman named Bernice Gallegher, who is determined to protect her family's ranch. As Childress navigates the dangers of his mission under the guise of a cowboy, he encounters various characters and challenges that reveal both the rugged life of the Canadian West and the complexities of personal relationships. The opening of the novel introduces Sergeant Childress as he makes a night ride across the "Medicine Line" into Canada’s West. He is apprehensive but determined, gearing up for a secret mission to address the issue of cattle rustling affecting his community. His path crosses with Bernice Gallegher, who is being pursued by a group that accuses her of horse theft. The two quickly form an alliance as they face off against the attackers, showcasing their bravery and resilience in a tension-filled showdown. Through dynamic character interactions, particularly the assertiveness of Bernice and the duty-driven mindset of Childress, the opening sets the stage for a narrative rich in action and developing relationships against the backdrop of early 20th-century Canada.
