Next to him was a woman dressed in White Oaks gold-mining-ghost­ town-brothel-garb wearing a sash reading "Madame Varnish." ,• Across the bow of the dull white truck stretched a banner reading "Grand Marshall." • The wind whipped camper-sized American flags from the stirrup mounts ,I , of maidens. Smokey Bear waved from another pick-up beyond the , r horsebacked Border Patrol. The Sheriff's Posse was guarding the flank. , It had been a rainy night in the mountains northeast of Carrizozo, and r ,I there was adebate as to whether the number of people .actually in the Miner's , Day Parade might outnumbered those preparing to watch it. , , Richard and Madam Farnsworth waved to a small group in front of the r "No Scum Allowed" White Oaks Saloon. ~ , Agenuine grin consumed his comfortable, familiar face: r You see, the Grey Fox was home in Lincoln County. He was among his f people. And life was, indeed, good.
