A truck in a convoy of archaeological artifacts breaks down just
outside of Knotty Pine. The big truck is carrying a valuable mummy from Egypt. Bill and
his rangers are in charge of guarding the mummy until the truck is repaired.
Stumpy is leery of watching this “old pile of bandages”. Mr. Peabody, the
convoy director, is not happy about leaving the valuable mummy in Knotty Pine.
for the week of June 21, 2014 and the first week of summer is
The Whispering Cave
Bill and Gray Wolf help an Indian
brave, Running Fox, share Christ with his dying father, Chief White Feather, and
with his tribe. He is the only Christian in his tribe. His brother Arrow Hand is opposed to any mention of Jesus around their dying father.
Stumpy’s horse,
Matilda, breaks a leg while out on the trail. Bill doesn’t think they can get
her to a vet safely. She saved Stumpy’s life, but he may not be able to save
hers.
It is harvest time in
the wheat fields around Central City. But a bad flu epidemic has kept many of
the farmers out of the fields at this critical time. Ranger Bill sends 3 of his
rangers to help with the harvest. One of those rangers considers a career
change as he does the harvesting work.
