Mission overview

Wanting the gang to lie low after the trouble in Valentine, Dutch asks Arthur and Charles to scout out a new camp location at Dewberry Creek.

Story

After getting involved in a shootout in Valentine, Arthur rides back to camp to find the gang packing up. Dutch tells Arthur that Micah told him of a new spot at Dewberry Creek, and ordered Arthur to take Charles with him to check it out.

Upon reaching the creek, the pair noted it was a poor spot, and found a man dead in the dried up lake. They found a small camp nearby, and found a small German family hiding under a wagon. The family could hardly speak any English. However, the daughter managed to communicate that the father had been kidnapped. Arthur doesn't want to look for him, but Charles convinces him, and the two ride off to search for the man.

They follow a horse trail, and reach an area by the lake. They find the man tied up, but it turns out to be a trap. Once the assault has been put down, Arthur unties the man and takes him back to his family. While riding back, he tells Arthur his family runs a gold mining business, and he was being held for ransom. Arthur doesn't understand what the man is saying, as he is speaking in German.
