News Print Delay

I would like to take a moment and express my sincerest apology for the delay in this week’s edition of the paper. I seemed to have had a small problem with the print wheel and also ran out of ink in my supply cabinet. We are back up and running now and our printing schedule is back on track. (In other words, my DSL had major problems last Friday and is now fixed.)

Regards,
Whitney Clymer,

———————————-The bad Beats the Good——————————–
(by Killa Evans)

November 21, 1989 at approximatley 4:43 the Good held a women captive and was sentenced to the gallows. Just then a swarm of the Bad raided the city, many died but one was left alive. His name was Nightwolf, a former Navaho Indian whose home was burned to ashes by the bluecoats. His wife and daughter were both killed and his tribe sent to flames. He noticed the smoke in the air after his hunting and ran as quickly as he could to help but it was to late. He traveled many places and ended up here in search of a home. That man alone was the last of the Bad and killed 5 of the Good. He saved the women and left town.

The Obituary of Joel Stindberg

I regret to announce the unpleasant death of Joel Stindberg, who on the 19th of November of this year, hung himself on the hangman’s noose. Many townsfolk tried to talk Mr Stindberg down from the rope, but to no avail. Right at the moment of intervention he managed to kick the lever and fell to his untimely doom. The memory of Joel Stindberg is survived by his friends and associates at the sheriff’s office. May we all heal from the shock of this sudden departure.

Written by Bobby Troughton, Town Undertaker.

The death of Killa ‘Cursed Blood’
(by Max Delacroix)

On the 27th of september, the outlaw known as Killa ‘Cursed blood’ was shot to death in side the town by an Indian cheif of his old tribe. After a gunfight with the 10th Us Calvery under Lt. Col. An which involved the indians at the old gold mines, The outlaw fled toward Sigil with the hopes of hiding in town. After a breif interlude in which the 10th Calvery tended to its wounded, The outlaw struck again, attempting to monopolize their losses and wipe the detachment out. However, Eyewitnesses saw the Indian cheif enter town and attack the outlaw, which fled again, and in attempt to strike back at the indians, shot at a woman of their village. The woman was unharmed but the gunfire alerted the Calvery and the Indian, whom chased again. After a breif, frantic gunfight, The Indian and the outlaw faced off in a gunfight that could be called titantic, with the number of shots heard in the range of 20 to 50. The outlaw, injured, was finaly guned down after words none heard clearly. The Indian was reported wounded, but no medical records of treatment were found.
