THE OUTLAW AND BRIDE PART 10

The new gang of bank robbers are filled with confidence and begin to plan another bank job using the same method that was successful during the first job. Wayne begins to think a few more jobs and I will be able to return home and pay off the ranch. His thoughts when alone are about Carlitia. They say, abstinence makes the heart grow fonder and in his case this is true. Wayne begins to thinks about caring around all this gold is a bad idea. After all he might be a little dumb but he's not stupid!! The safest place to put his money is in a bank which they haven't robbed. He will keep some out and open an account and put all his future funds in that bank. Wise move?????
The gang began a string of robberies across Kansas. They hit banks in Topeka, Lawrence, Winchester, Emporia, Wichita and Salina. The Kansas lawmen are close behind the gang. Wayne's bank account in St. Joesph is soaring. Things are way too hot in Kansas for the gang so they ride back into Missouri and plan to lay low for a while. They enter a little town called King City and split up and rent rooms at different boarding houses with plans to meet outside of town in a few days to decide what to do next.
One more bank job Wayne is thinking and I'm going home. Plans to hit a bank in Richmond are drawn up. The gang rides off and into the town late one night. Most banks in the territory have wised up to their methods and have placed a GUARD INSIDE THE BANK AT NIGHT. BEWARE WAYNE!!! All looks well at the bank and the men break in, Ned and Brad are first to enter, SHOTS RING OUT!!! Wayne can see Ned is down and Brad is injured, Wayne runs out the front door to where Fred is waiting with the horses and they high tail it out of town. After about an hours ride they stop. Wayne tells Fred I'm going home. Fred tells him he plans on returning to town in the morning to see if Ned and Brad are alive.Good bye my friend and good luck and Wayne rides off on his trip back home.
STORY ENDS TOMORROW!! BRING TISSUES !!
