Jed and Al discussed the problem of how they were going to trap Harrington and Smedly. The Rangers were sure that Smedly was planning to buy the H&T at a bankruptcy sale, but they did not know how Harrington figured into the deal. The conspirators didn't have a lot of wiggle room though, because the H&T should be able to get back on its feet within six months if the raids stopped. Shipping business was already starting to pick up even though it had only been a few days since Baker was thrown into jail. Word gets around fast when the pocketbook is involved.
Fortunately, some engineer had the foresight to set the track width on the H&T to standard guage so that "foreign" freight cars, such as from The Austin & El Paso RR could route their traffic over the H&T once they were convinced that the raids were over. They would certainly do it, since it would save over 100 miles of travel on the TG where the rates were astronomical.
In fact, the TG made so much more money when the H&T was not operating that the Rangers believed that the TG had something to do with the raids. That certainly would explain Harrington's connection to the scheme. They suspected that the plan was for Smedly to buy the H&T and sell it to the TG, making a nice profit from the deal. If the TG owned the H&T right-of-way, they could charge as much as they wanted to for freight to use the shortcut.
Smedly could claim to be innocent of any wrong doing in the H&T affair, since all he was doing was buying a defunct railroad and trying to sell it at a profit. That was something any businessman would do. It looked like the only way to nail Smedly was to find enough evidence against Harrington that he would implicate Smedly just to lift some of the pressure from himself.
Jed and Al spent a week trying to get some solid evidence against Harrington, but, still, all they had was Baker's word. Then, on a Wednesday, there was another attack on the H&T freight run from Hadleyville. This was a real amateurish thing with only four men in the raiding party. The only smart thing the raiders did was attack while the train was stopped to take on fuel and water. They were easily beaten off by the guards and crew, and the freight run continued to Templeton with no further delays.
There were two intermediate stops between Hadleyville and Templeton where there were small stations and a "team track" where cars could be dropped off for local deliveries and pickups could be made. Both of these were at small towns of little consequence, so nobody expected any trouble at either of them and, indeed, there had never been any. However, that was about to change.
There was no train running on Thursday, so everybody on the H&T relaxed. But Thursday, boxcars parked at each of the two intermediate stops were set on fire. Again, it was a very amateurish job. The outside of the car was scorched a bit, but neither one was really damaged. The two Rangers were back riding in the caboose on Friday and went with the conductor to inspect the damage to each boxcar. In both cases, the conductor snorted and ordered the boxcars coupled into the train and business continued.
I got dressed and walked down the street as Let had told me at the train station. I walked out of town until I came to the outskirts of the ranch. There was a wooden fence and a gate which read ‘Day-Sea ranch’. I needed to walk about a kilometer up a dirt road from the fence until I reached the farm’s buildings. As I approached, I saw a farmhouse. I noticed its age. It must have been built sometime during the 1800s. The farmhouse was on top of a hill, which made me a little tired after hauling...
I was laying on my bed listening to music when I looked out the window. Darkness had fallen over the ranch and I looked at the note Sybil had given me earlier. On it was an address she had written down for me. I remember her words: “Come to this address after dark.” I had been wondering what was waiting for me at this place. While I was examining the note I noticed a small marking on the bottom. It looked like a small scribble, it was a word: Ménage. I got out of bed and put my jacket on. I...
A few hours later I woke up. I could hear birds chirping and other animals from outside as a beautiful sunshine was shining into my small house. It was not the only beauty I could see. Jill’s head was lying on my chest and her arms across my stomach. She had a great smell and I brushed her hair with my hands. Last night was fantastic. First my visit to Ménage, then seeing Mrs. Day-Sea masturbate, and popping Jill’s cherry. I had her crying, moaning, grunting, screaming, and cumming in a...
Later that evening, around 23:30, I was lying in my bed. I was thinking about how I would decorate my cottage. The cottage was about 3×4 meters. It definitely needed a renovation. The first thing that came to mind was the lighting. It was worthless! I had a small and weak gas lamp on the ground next to the bed, which made it hard to see. I would have to think about decorating in the morning. As I thought about the light, I a shadow moved outside the window above my head. There was a light...
I opened the door to my cottage and took out the bundle of cash I had been given by Mr. Wayland. I rolled away the carpet on the floor and opened the hatch down to my personal safe. It was a brand new one that Mr. Wayland had given me as a present after I had finished the nursery. He claimed that he was forced to give me a place to protect my valuables and money that I had earned. I enjoyed the loud slam the safe made when I closed it shut. I sure did not want to get my toe stuck in-between...
Part 1: Moving Life in the city had never been great. I had always been a little bit of an outcast in school. I never made it into the social life there and most kids avoided me.

During the days after my arrival, I got better acquainted with my new household, learning about the Day-Sea’s routines and getting used to the farm. The girls took very good care of me and helped me with anything I needed or wondered about. The girls found a way for me to repay them too, which I thought was more of a treat than a debt. After they returned from their long working hours I would find them at their usual resting areas. The first one who had free time was Jill. All of the girls...
the wife,karen, and i were hiking into a dead end canyon a few years back. it was a warm day and she wore a halter top and tiny shorts on her tiny little body although her boobs really pushed out that halter top. we had hiked this canyon many times before and knew there was only one way in and one way out. we had seen a car parked in the parking lot when we came in so we knew someone else was also hiking the canyon. about an hour into the canyon we came to little rise where you could see...

Straight SexAfter Jessie’s and Jill’s request to be more open with the family I began to notice a few chances around the farm. I noticed how lightly the girls had begun to dress. They would walk around the house in light clothing which revealed a lot of their beautiful skin. Obviously trying to catch my attention, I think it excited them to prance around the house trying to impress a boy, and it certainly excited me! Those occasions usually turned out to them unzipping my pants and playing with me. They...

The girls loved it and I felt great to be able to make them happy in another way, other than tantalizing them with my cock. I stepped out and walked to the kitchen for breakfast. Jill was standing by the stove preparing tea and I...

There’s nothing hotter than banging your 40-year-old schoolteacher as a high school student, or knocking up your neighbors hot MILF wife. It’s way more exciting to fuck an older woman than one that’s near your age range, but there’s one...

They had both managed successful careers and the demands of being both wives and mothers. When Doris's marriage had ended in divorce...

PART ONE Jennifer started as she turned to look at the alarm clock. It was 8:30 am and she was going to be late for work. “Shit” she muttered to herself, knowing how much her boss hated latecomers. Normally she was on time, but after waking up earlier that morning she’d got caught up in daydreaming about her boyfriend Brett. She’d imagined him in bed with her, sucking her hard, quarter-sized nipples and fingering her pussy and clit. She lay there pinching her nipples and rubbing her little pink...

The long night of sex with the four younger studs, in front of her son, had been a terrific and exhausting experience: she had been drained of all her energies like never before in her life. The woman raised herself from the bed and took few steps in the room to the mirror; bags around her eyes and some love bites on her breast sides proved the heavy treatment from her captors, but her appearance, on the whole, still looked great; and this was certainly due to her resilient and well exercised...

Danielle's hormones began having their effect on her at an early age so that by the time she was 14 her budding tits swelled to fit into a 34C bra. The natural shape of her chest made them form into round tea cup perfect tits with soft, pointy light pink nipples protruding slightly upward. Further down her torso was a flawless flat stomach, pinched by a tight waist that lead in contrast to sharply swung hips that in turn curved around to two full ass cheeks that sweetly pushed out about any...

I walked over to Sonia and helped her pick up her papers. "You guys get to work or I'll put you all in detention!" I demanded my students then asked Sonia, "Are you ok, dear?" She nodded nervously then went to her seat. I watched Sonia as she did her math problems. The girl was a high school misfit. She was always very isolated and closed...
LesbianI had just started my current vacation of three weeks in total, when I traveled to Sweden to visit my parents for a few days, staying in the guest bedroom of their small but comfy house, located in the outskirts of the harbor town Gothenburg.

The woman was breathing deeply, still passed out from the long wild fucking. Her swollen breasts were ondulating on her chest; her left arm was stretched out over her head, showing the delicious curve of one ivory-white armpit. The boy tore off his shorts and briefs and stood naked in front of her sleepy mom: his shaft was jutting up, in all its hardness, from his hairy crotch. He was still aroused from the vision of the torrid sex-session between his mother and the two big black guys....
