====== 2022.10.30 ====== ++++ Lie In | I'm having my usual lie in while the others are being all productive. I get up, grab some grub. We are looking for this Lacy guy. ++++ ++++ Some Sort of Problem | Meanwhile, a asian comes in on a steam wagon. The Marshal takes a disliking to him (Snakeoil!). Smashing the stock. The deputies beat the man up. TheColonel asks a question but the Sheriff tells him to mind his own business. QuiLongWang Asks if there is a problem. Sheriff is belligerent. Small dicks are mentioned. ++++ ++++ Roll Cards | - Round - TheColonel ... - I turn invisible (horrible rolls) - QuiLongWang casts deflection - Gang (deputies) - Drop DoctorGao and cheer on the Marshal. - The Marshal tries to intimidate and attack QuiLongWang. - ... - Round - Exchange of blows (QuiLongWang getting beat up a bit). The Marshal is a rock. - Round - ... ? ++++ ++++ I Need a Drink | I get a drink. Asking around about Lacy. He normally stays across from the saloon, but he's late. Telegraph that he will be in tomorrow morning. EmmaSchneider gets a letter from SilasWanamaker (mayor of SundownTown). He wants our help. Want's to meet outside town. At the Wanamaker Mansion. ++++ ++++ The Mansion | We go to see the Mayor. He wants our help. Invites us to some gambling tonight. ++++ ++++ Asking Around | I do some gambling. Hear some rumors.

Runs/owns the SunsetArms hotel. ++++ ++++ Asking about Elias | From New York. Jewish. Gambler. Running from some legal trouble. He was always looking at a book, and keeping it hidden. My story: I owe Elias a debt and I need to go through his things to find the deed to settle the debt. PierreLaFontaine charges his remaining rent ($20) and gives me everything. We inspect his things in my room. * Clothes * Book (Hoyles Games) * Well worn deck of cards. * Derringer with 12 rounds ++++ ++++ The Mansion | We go to the Wanamaker Mansion. Refreshments.
