Scores Dead in Blood Feud

Scores Dead in Blood Feud is one of the newspaper articles in Red Dead Redemption 2.

BRAITHWAITE MANOR BURNED TO GROUND.
SHERIFF GRAY KILLED.

MOST OF BOTH FAMILIES BELIEVED TO BE DEAD.

RHODES IN PIECES.

The feud between old plantation families, the Grays and the Braithwaites, began almost a century ago and has come to a head on the streets of Rhodes in a bloody shootout. Most of the Gray family, including Sheriff Leigh Gray, perished in the ambush as the streets pooled with blood. Witnesses at the scene of the battle say bodies littered the streets. Soon after, apparently in bitter reprisal, several men stormed Braithwaite Manor, executing everyone inside.

The historic plantation house was then burned to the ground. The fire could be seen for miles as locals rushed to the scene to find out what happened. Officials do not know how many perished and will need to spend several days searching the ruins to determine the exact number. Almost all of the Braithwaite family are believed dead, although some family members remain unaccounted for and some were believed out of town.

Telegraphic and telephone communication erupted in the hours afterwards as friends and loved ones reached out to find what transpired. Services for the dead will be held in the coming days.
