We continue with our hunt for location for “Shalako”. The
Countess Itina Lazaar and one of the guides have been surrounded after they
left the hunting party to hunt a pack of coyotes drawn to the kill of the
mountain lion. The guide has been tortured and left to die perched upon a
lance. The countess has run out of cartridges and is at the mercy of four
Indians who are attacking her. Suddenly a rider appears and kills one of the
attacking Indians. He jumps off his horse next to the countess and kills
another of the Indians while the countess, using the man’s six-gun shoots a
third attacker. The fourth Indian has had enough and is allowed to escape. The
man introduces himself as Shalako and escorts the countess back towards the
rest of the hunting party. Suddenly they are surrounded by the rest of the
braves. Shalako talks his way out of being killed by telling the chief and his
son Chato that he will escort the hunting party off the reservation in the
morning.
This area is still in the Grainfield area which is
surrounded by low hills.
