			The party rode to a spot Samantha knew where there was a landmark stone atop a slope down to the rails below. There they met [[Bearded Tom]] and his men, chew-spittin' Jack and lazy guy. Harland had shot a rattler under the giant stone and drew the attention of the three men below in an aspen grove. The two parties convened and Sam took a few men to pile rocks and the wagon on the rails below the landmark stone. Having done so, the party camped in the aspens through the night with the plan to wait for the train in the long grass while Dan and Belle pretended to have their wagon stuck on the tracks in front of, and hopefully hiding, the stones.

			Sure enough, shortly after Tom went back to the aspens to get some lunch the train came to a screeching halt and as the coal man went to see how he could help, he noticed Jack laying in the grass. The coalman exclaimed "we got trouble!" and ran back into the engine pursued by Jack, firing his pistol at the man. The train was rushed and Samantha found the judge and pulled him from a passenger car as she noticed riders approaching and sent Belle to intercept with her shotgun on her unsaddled horse. Harlan and Jack had a shootout with three other riders on the opposite side of the train while Dan escorted the engineer and coalman away from the train.

			One of the riders approaching Belle recognized her as he worked with Stan, a Pinkerton agent, and they conversed momentarily before all riding together on Sam, chasing her under the train after she shot and pistol-whipped Judge Iggy to the ground after shooting his wife and a fat man who may have been attempting to rescue Iggy.

			Belle told Harlan that Samantha had turned on them and ushered him to the side of the train where Samantha had just shot Jack, affirming Belle's claim. Harlan was torn and Samantha was on the run. She gathered one of the shot riders horses and began riding off toward the aspens where she encountered [[Dunn]] who shot her horse out from under her and told her she shouldn't shoot. When she raised her gun to him, he shot it out of her hand. She ran up to him and tried pulling him from the saddle where he cold-cocked her and drug her across the back of his horse and rode out of sight.

			Harlan proceeded to rob the front train car despite Belle's warnings not to. Then they and Dan found Tom knocked unconscious in the trees and split. Harlan decided to ride on to Las Vegas Territory and leave the others to their own business.

			=== The shooting of a Deputy ===
			Most of the party did their best to lie fairly low the following day with only Dan and Sam leaving the rooms to get food and supplies. Samantha had another run-in with [[Boris VanCleef]] who told her that her and her men weren't welcome in [[Stanville]] after the shooting the previous night. She argued with him and he warned her to be out of town by high-noon. Dan traded his fur coat for supplies and tried again to chat with his brother who did not respond through the jail bars. Riding around the jail, Dan believed he saw movement within as well as Sheriff Oakes sitting outside. Belle attempted to sing Harlan lullabies while they sat in the room.

			Samantha returned and told Harlan about the confrontation while Belle read the bible across the hall. When Dan returned he dumped the feces-filled spitoon out the window and ordered a bath for Harlan.

			Samantha went out and wandered the streets in her new yellow duster looking for VanCleef and trouble as the noon-bell tolled. Belle attempted to shadow her but blatantly followed. VanCleef was not to be found.

			Later that afternoon when Dan was returning from riding about town, having procured some ether from Doc Smythe's, VanCleef entered the hotel. Dan waited outside, eating a handkerchief-wrapped sandwich while the Deputy and his teenage goon went up the stairs within. Having searched the ladies' room and come up empty, the lawmen went to the stable. Sam snuck down behind them and motioned Dan into the hotel. He tried to get Samantha to come out when she heard VanCleef behind her, prompting her to run back up the stairs. Moments later, the lawmen kicked in the door to stare down the barrels of Harlan and Samantha's shootin' irons.

			After a brief discussion and stand-off, Harlan was sent to jail with the teenager while Dan sneaked in the back door of the hotel and conspired with Dawson, the hotel owner. Dawson supplied Dan with a .22 revolver which he trained on the boy from beneath the stairs as he lead Harlan down.
			Dan told Harlan to gag the boy. He punched him out.
			VanCleef followed shortly after as Harlan finished tying up the boy beneath the stairs. Dan and VanCleef had a momentary stand-off before Dan disarmed him.
			While Harlan began untying the boy in order to tie the more dangerous deputy, VanCleef took the opportunity do dive for cover behind Dawson's counter, taking Dawson down with him.
			Scrambling out from behind the counter towards the door, VanCleef was stopped by a bullet put into the floorboards inches from his face. Dan warned him.

			The partially untied boy, coming to his senses, attacked the unsuspecting Harlan. That giving VanCleef another distraction he got do the front door handle as Dan attempted to pistol-whip the deputy into submission. Failing that, Dan shot the large man in the back as he crossed the threshold onto the boardwalk and shouted for help.

			After spending some time finding Samantha's contact, Floyd Garvin, in [[Rangeland]], to trade one of the stolen horses for a saddle and some supplies, the Samantha and Harlan met up with "Belle" who was waiting north of town. Around midnight after Dan gambled some, he joined the group and they began their journey north under the starlight. Shortly after dawn, they approached a ranch were the nearly deaf proprietor gave them lodging in trade for a couple of dollars and a can of Dan' secret recipe beans.

			That night, the group rode the rest of the way into [[Stanville]], arriving at dawn. Samantha took the group to Dawson's hotel where she new the Qwade gang would get a discounted rate. Dan went to socialize and eat at a nearby bakery, while the other three slept. In the late afternoon the entire party was roused. Harlan and Belle went to a nearby restaurant to eat, Samantha found a saloon where she waited to talk to [[Bearded Tom]], another gang member and Dan won the earnings of some disgruntled card-players.

			At some point during the evening the fellow Dan tried to purchase a bedroll from on the road between Rangeland and Barret, introduced himself as [[Dunn]] to Samantha stating, "''The cowpoke I was riding with told me you're Samantha, the Qwade's whore. That true?
			I don't want not trouble in this here fine city. As I understand it, you folks have brought them plenty already. I just want your men. Tell me where they are and we part amiably.''" He stated he knew who Samantha was and that he only wanted the Qwades and no trouble.

			Eventually, Dan left to wander town and find the jail containing his brother Beau as well as to get a lay of Stanville. Harlan and went to the saloon to get drunk and keep an eye on Samantha who was talking with a bearded man and some others. Harlan bullied some elder brits out of the bar by eating their biscuits and being a belligerent jerk. Dan chatted with Beau through the jail bars about the judge currently being gone, sheriff Oakes being paranoid and that Beau fears Iggy to be a hanging judge. They both warn each other not to do anything stupid.

			With the girls back in their hotel room for the night and Dan playing cards, Harlan decided to go get more drunk and pick a fight with a large fellow at the bar. When Harlan knocked the drunk man down, he pulled a knife and stabbed Harlan before Harlan put bullet in him and left the bar to be escorted to Samantha and Belle's hotel room by Dan.
