Waking Up The Wrong Man At Ophir Works
A drunken employee at the Ophir Company near the works is seized by coworkers after dark. They threaten to shoot him if he returns, drag him toward the Masonic Cemetery, and nearly blow off his head with a gun after a heated exchange. He pleads for mercy as gunmen mock his dying wish and reveal the pistol. The encounter ends with the party scattering amid cannon and tombstones.
