Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Tennessee's Partner" by Bret Harte is a short story first published in 1869. Set in an Old West mining town, it follows the unlikely friendship between two men with opposite personalities—reckless gambler Tennessee and his humorless, practical partner. Their bond endures even through betrayal and tragedy. When Tennessee faces the ultimate consequence for his crimes, his devoted partner's loyalty is tested in ways that reveal the profound depth of their connection. Described as one of America's earliest "buddy" stories, this tale explores male friendship with quiet, understated emotion.
