Bart Dawson is a minor character in the Chick Tract entitled "Gun Slinger".

History

Gun Slinger

Set in the Wild Wild West for the story, Dawson was the owner of a local saloon and from it crafted a thriving business. That is until a preacher came to town three days before the story’s events and began preaching to his customers, converting them one by one to Christianity. Enraged at where his business was going, he hired the notorious assassin Terrible Tom to assassinate the Preacher. Terrible Tom accepted the mission and set out to go to his church that Sunday.

Unfortunately for Dawson, Terrible Tom did not try to kill the Preacher. In fact, he changed his ways due to the Preacher's influence. Terrible Tom is then arrested and sentenced to hang the next day. He died, and went to Heaven.

It is unknown what happened to Bart Dawson after his attempt to have the Preacher killed so that his business would thrive. He may have ended up losing his saloon, and his money, or, since he lives in this kind of world, he may quite well end up going to Hell because of his attempt to stifle God's voice.
