Traveling salesmen are accused of murder in a small town, but are released if they agree to care for the murdered man's widow. But the Widow Hawkins and her large brood of children may work the duo to death instead. From Riches to Rags; The Wistful Widow of Wagon Gap. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
