Bandit Sheriff Henry Plummer Recalls Vivid Frontier Era

Virginia City Mont Sept 19 The tale of Henry Plummer the sheriff who led a vast bandit gang in the 1860s is recounted from interviews with survivors and mining town records. The article describes his double life, alleged murders, vigilante justice, and his eventual hanging along with several followers. It notes a 100-man gang, 102 murders linked to the gang, and the Alder Gulch gold boom that drew many westward to Montana. Sheriff Plummer used charm to bolster his cover and directed road agents and informants until his downfall sparked the Vigilantes. The piece also lists a series of financial amounts recorded, followed by minutes of a local board meeting.
