We’re thieves… in a world that don’t want us no more.
Arthur Morgan to Dutch van der Linde

The New South is a mission in Red Dead Redemption 2.

Mission Overview[]

Arthur, Dutch and Hosea go out on a fishing trip.

Story[]

The three men ride out of camp with the intent on going on a fishing trip. Not long after leaving camp, the men encounter Archibald MacGregor and Leigh Gray - the town's deputy and sheriff respectively - transporting a wagon of captured criminals. Dutch spots Trelawny in the back small cell in the back of the wagon, and asks why he is there. Sheriff Gray tells Dutch that Trelawny was caught running an illegal gold prospecting operation, while Anders Anderson springs the lock and escapes with his henchmen.

The Anderson boys jump onto the back of a train speeding away, after which Dutch offers that Arthur will bring them back in exchange for Trelawny's release. The Sheriff agrees, so Archibald jumps aboard Arthur's horse and they give chase to the train. Realizing they cannot keep up with the speeding train, Archibald tells Arthur to jump aboard it, which he does. Arthur moves across the train, knocking out the Anderson boys until he at last comes to Anders, who is beaten unconscious after he attacks Morgan with a knife. After the train stops, Arthur and Archibald put Anders on the back of Arthur's horse and ride to Rhodes. The Sheriff keeps his promise and releases Trelawny, before asking the trio to come back and visit him sometime. Arthur then has the option of going fishing with Dutch and Hosea, or returning to camp.
