Frontier Telegraph Adventure Ends in Narrow Escape

After overhearing imminent danger, he escapes through a roof trap, sabotages a wire to warn the dispatcher, and helps thwart the bandits with a posse while the train proceeds. No injuries or damage reported. he soon leaves the post, rewarded but dismissed for a signal error.
