Extended description

This here's the story of Jack Schidtt and how he come to be sheriff. Growing up with a name like that, Jack's learned a few things about what's worth fighting for. He's just 17 years old when Nicholas' gang, they's out of Oregon, start terrorizing Pergamos. It starts with a murder up at the Platte place. Later on, Mr. Smythe starts missing cattle. Then there's what they did to Luther, Smythe's freed man. When they ride to town cause of the bad weather, Jack's just sure the men are finally going to run 'em out. But it don't happen. Even after they steal the town's safe, and kill Terrance Daniels for no good reason, nobody seems in a hurry to set things right. Jack finally decides to take matters in his own hands after Nicholas shoot's Jack's father, right there in the church building. And if that means he's going to do it by hisself, then so be it.
