Sheriff Eastman knocks on the mayors door and enters. "Mayor I have a request... this Rattlesnake and his gang are holed up in Lockjaw Canyon and they're getting bigger and sure to cause more trouble in the area. I dont think I can round up as many good men that I'd need from town or the ranchers. I'd like for the town to pay for ten Pinkertons to help me out and raid their camp. My apache scout is following one of their men now to see if he can find where they are. I'm sure whereever they are they'll be hard to root out. I need the experience of the Pinkertons, if we dont do something this gang will eventually run rough shod over the town." |

"I understand sheriff and agree, but the Pinkertons will be expensive and I know they're worth it. But our treasury cant handle that cost. If all the stores paid their taxes when due it would help. I suppose the town could take a loan from the bank if you can get the store owners to pay up what they owe." |

"Be damned mayor I'll get them to pay give me a list. I'll threaten them with heavy fines, I'm sure thats within your jurisdiction as mayor." |

"Yes it is according to the town charter, I just never enforced it. I'm sure the bank will give the town a loan under these conditions. I'll wire for the Pinkertons as soon as I see the banker." Mayor Ives stood putting on his jacket and hat ands left with the sheriff. ---> Sheriff to the Lucky 7 |
