Ruby's Letters - January 1876 (Arrival of Marshal Johnson)

   Dear Margo

     Howdy Sis. Hope all is well in the Big City. Hope them youngins ain't drove ya too crazy yet! Now you tell em that their Aunt Ruby says hi. Lord I do miss ya'll somethin fierce, that's the truth. Well now things out here have sure gone to hell. The Sheriff was murdered right in the street a few weeks back. Sad sad thing. The low life dog that done it spent a few nights here at my place just before. I had a bad feelin about him from the start. He was a creepy son-of-a-bitch. Should have had Guss toss him out on his ass. But apparently he's some kinda hot shot gunslinger, and well, Gus is handy with the usual roughneck cowboys we get in here, I don't think he would fare none too well 'gainst a real killer. Poor Sheriff had a right nice family. It's a damn shame.
    Now this new Marshal done come to town huntin this outlaw. Wooo-Weee gal, you should see this hombre! Now I have seen my share of lookers, but, damn. This boy would make even that stuck up school teacher we got here warm up a might! (NOTE- This is priceless!!!! - Barry) And he looks like a man that can certainly handle his self in a scrap. Plus, and this is good news for me, he seems to be a fan of whores! Or "Sportin' Women" as he calls them. I done set him up with one of my girls last night. Margo, it has been a spell, but I just might have to come out of retirement for this one!!! Lord help me!
   Well speak of the devil! Here he is now awalkin in the front door. Uh oh, looks like somethin done upset his wagon. I better go see what I can do to make it all better! Haha!

   Anyway, love you girl and I will write again soon.

  Your sis forever,
  Ruby
