| 520 | _aMountain men by Eugene Cunningham is a Western short story written in the early 20th century. It focuses on a poaching incident that tangles with a simmering ranch feud in the New Mexico mountains, setting rough frontier justice and local loyalties against the pressure of outside money and authority. Bud Ranger and his younger brother slip onto Ben Lingo’s range at dawn to take a deer; Bud drops a buck, but Brother’s leg wedges between boulders. While trying to hide the kill, Bud is disarmed and arrested by Hawkins, a cool ex–Texas Ranger deputy, and brought before Lingo’s makeshift court, where an overbearing Easterner, Carter, demands harsh punishment. Though at odds with Bud’s father, Lingo fines Bud but offers him the chance to work off the debt and even a foreman’s job, revealing a steadier sense of mountain justice than his bluster suggests. Stung by a glimpse of Sudie May riding off with a man he assumes is the dismissed foreman, Bud broods, only to learn Lingo actually sent her with Rod Kendall to check a suspected trespass. Urged to ride at once, Bud heads upriver to free his trapped brother and sort the tangle of pride, feud, and affection, as Lingo quietly turns punishment into a test and a second chance.
