Synopsis
Little Beaver is fascinated by and wants to buy the carnival monkey that shoots the pop gun. The carny offers the sick monkey. Little Beaver snatches it up, and Red fronts him the $25. After Aunty Duchess's medicine and a week recuperating, Bargum is well, and playing with unloaded guns. At dinner a desperado breaks in, and binds Aunty and Little Beaver so he can sleep, warning them to send away any posse. Bargum takes his gun as he sleeps, and shoot it, hitting his leg. Possemen enter, bind the outlaw, untie the prisoners. Bargum gets a $500 reward.
