<div align="center"><span class="bbc_size" style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>Doomtown Spoiler Alert:</strong></span></div><br/><strong>The Hunters</strong><br/><br/>Those who follow Nathan Hunter and the creature's tracks will fin them ending at the bridge to Deadman's Rest.  A creature runs across the bridge on all fours, well ahead of its pursuers.  For a moment there's a decent look at it in the moonlight - nine feet tall, several hundred pounds.  Bullets that strike it don't slow it, until it springs, jumps well over twenty feet, and lands on Deadman's rest.  It's jump severs the ropes that hold the bridge, and it tumbles against the side of the cliff.  Dramatic rescues can follow, or a painfuf climb up the remains of the bridge that hang down the side of the mesa.  Nathan Hunter will spill into the water and crawl out.  Rescue will take most of the evening - the beast disappears, but Deadman's Rest is cut off from the main Mesa.<br/><br/><strong>The Crime Scene</strong><br/><br/>The only new situation the develops at the crime scene is Nash Bilton arriving and taking control.  He does an adequate job taking control, and seems undisturbed by the gore and violence of the scene.  He manages to identify the body of the second victim, as Thommy Jones, owner of J's Mercantile and Trade, and a long time resident of Gomorra.  Thommy was well liked by the miners, and sent off every spare penny he made to his wife and daughter in Lost Angels.  The first victim will likely be identified by someone who remains on site and is familiar with him - Edward Baldrick.     On scene, a bounty hunter will identify himself as in pursuit of Edward Baldrick - he was a CSA deserter, a crime taken more seriously because of his status as an officer.  Bilton will order him off the scene, and the bounty hunter will remain insistent - he requires something to identify the man to return to receive his bounty.    Harsh words are exchanged, and the bounty hunter draws on Bilton.  Bilton is a) clearly still drunk b) taken by surprise, and still outdraws the bounty hunter and shoots him dead.<br/><br/><strong>The Doctor</strong><br/><br/>Despite the admonition from Hunter to get her to a priest, the Good Doctor insists on keeping her overnight.  He is concerned about internal injuries, but unwilling to operate or perform surgery until he is certain her life is in danger from them.  (Modern medical practice being what it is, it's actually a wise option.)  He (and whoever chooses to stay) will keep a vigil throughout the night.  Elisabeth will survive, her wounds treated, and will awake in the morning.  Any application of potions and poultices will not be approved by the Doctor, who won't take kindly to any attempts to apply them in secret, either.<br/><br/>(If someone present with Elisabeth does try to apply them, PM me and we'll figure out the results.<br/><hr/><br/>Let me know if there are any additional questions about the events that transpire.<br/>
