Prereading

Ruth opened her purse and pulled out a long, satin wallet. She took out her only twenty dollar bill and placed it in the bag that Bill held open. The train finally stopped and Bill tripped forward. He fell on her lap and she pushed him off in disgust. He stood up and held the bag open for Maggie. “Please, sir. This is all the money I have left in the world,” Maggie cried. Bill laughed and took her money without a second thought.

Bill moved on to the next train car while Maggie started crying. There was a large explosion from the front of the train and all of the passengers jumped up in fear. “That has to be the safe,” Ruth said softly. She set her head against the window and sighed. Suddenly, she sat up with excitement. “Look Maggie! Their horses. They are right outside our car waiting for them.”

Maggie looked out the window and saw the horses. “So what?” she said sadly. “If we take their horses, they can’t leave with the money,” Ruth said. “They’ll be stuck on the train. Maggie shook her head, “That’s too dangerous. What if they shoot us?” “I’m going to do it,” Ruth announced. “The horses are right there. I have to try.” She stood up and crept toward the back of the train car. She leaned out of the car and grabbed the reins of the nearest horse. The horse whinnied and took a step backward, but Ruth pulled it close to her. She swiftly jumped on its back and gave it a kick.

Maggie saw her friend get on the horse and jumped up to follow her. Her heart was beating wildly, but she was able to grab the horse and climb on its back. The horse whinnied loudly and stood up on two legs. Maggie almost fell off, but grabbed the horse’s mane in terror. She kicked the horse hard, and it took off at a gallop. She heard an angry voice behind her and then a pistol shot. She ducked her head and urged the horse to go faster. "Stop shooting!" Jesse yelled to his friend. "Our extra bullets are with the horses."

When she caught up with Ruth, Maggie turned around and saw both of the gunslingers on the last train car waving their fists in anger. The girls followed the train tracks back to the town they had just left and found the sheriff in the middle of his afternoon nap. After they told him the story, he jumped up and grabbed his deputy and the four of them rode back to the train. When they could see the train in the distance, they split up, so there were two of them on each side of the train.

Jesse saw Maggie and the sheriff coming toward the train and shot twice at them. Both shots missed, so Jesse jumped off the train and started to run. The sheriff caught him easily and tied his hands behind his back. Bill saw the deputy coming from the other side of the train and shot at him. He only had one bullet left, and it hit the deputy in the leg. Ruth watched the deputy fall out of his saddle and Bill grabbed his horse. He took off galloping toward the river. Ruth took off after him and fired the shotgun the sheriff gave her into the air. "Stop right there, you scoundral!" Bill stopped his horse and Ruth quickly grabbed the reins and led him back to the sheriff. She returned to the train and gave everyone their money back. The conductor started the train again and everyone cheered while the outlaws were taken away.
