Old Timers Recall Budody Battle With Murders and Shootings
Fragmentary recollection recounts a 19th century gunfight described by old timers. The narrative follows Sheriff Townsend and Constable Heartt as they pursue Braddock and Moore, misidentifications, a fatal volley, and the discovery of dummy bodies. Townspeople and lawmen move from the scene to the store, with Moore later dying at Eagle Lake and Braddock at Flatonia.
