    10 yo Girl explains Sheriff ran the Thortons out of Graves Hollow. Put her on a train back east.  Learn lay of the town from Maeve. Dirt Devil Gang easy mark. Set the plan in motion. Let it be known of a strongbox at the Thorton farm. Then Doc told the sheriff about the gang's plan to rob it. 

    The team staked out the Thorton farm. Marge was in the loft above in the barn. Doc was in a tree and McDuffy was in a copse of small bushy trees. The trap was set. The Dirt Devil Gang took the bait, and the Sheriff was on his way to arrest them. The target was the evil sheriff. All others were collateral damage.

    The Dirt Devil Gang showed up and spent fifteen minutes in the house. Then they started for the barn. One went inside.

    The sheriff’s crew came on scene, about 500 feet out. Marge took a shot and grazed the Sheriff. The fuse was lit. Now to sit back and watch them take each other out.

    Well, the gang started to get on their horses and escape. So, the team targeted their horses. Two horses were taken down. But, the gig was up. Cade yelled out, “It’s an ambush!” And started for McDuffy.

    When the Sheriff’s crew finally came around they took out one of the Gang Members and the sheriff yelled, “Snipers!” And started shooting at Doc. Doc hit the sheriff again. But, the posse shot Doc. He went down hard.

    Marge teleported out of the barn and got behind the sheriff’s riders, taking out two of them before they could get to McDuffy. That’s when McDuffy took a shot at the sheriff, blowing him out of his saddle.

    One last Dirt Devil Gang member high-tailed it out there. The one with the raven.

    They looted the bodies and wrangled a couple of horses. But left the scene pretty much the way it ended.

    They took the long way into town and picked up a Bigfoot body from the other day. They made a spectacle out of bringing into town. Look what we have been up to. It was a good cover story.

    Whispers started looking into what happened to the sheriff and crew. It didn’t take long for the bodies to be discovered and brought back. It was a busy day for the undertaker. He offered to taxidermy two Bigfoots.

    The deputy asked us to look into another gang matter, the McGrew Gang. They were hold up in a forest outside of town. The team came upon three tents, no guards. After some cut throating and shotgunning, there wasn’t much left of that gang.
