During the early 1800s, young Tom Hurley lived with his parents in a well-fortified shack near an Indian hunting-trail, a short distance from the Indians encampment. Toms mother contracted a serious chest ailment, and died during Toms infancy. When his father died from a gangrenous thigh wound, fifteen-year-old Tom was left to provide for himself. He experienced many exciting and hindering incidences during his lifetime, and occasionally became the victim of unscrupulous intimidators or the pawn of unethical swindlers. He became involved in many controversies, and was shot by an unknown assailant during his sleep. A long time elapsed before he could discover his assailants identity, and reclaim his most valuable possession. He developed an insatiable desire for companionship and affection, but this desire was not readily fulfilled. He gradually became accustomed to his unsatisfying lifestyle, but he did not abandon his hopes for improving it. Toms many disappointments and hindrances, however, did not deprive him of his desire to achieve his goals. His unrewarding persistence to succeed, and his dependency on his faithful burro and a rebellious goat contributed to his dilemmas. He eventually attained his evaluation of worthiness, through the encouragement and care of an old Indian squaw.
