Two banditos started out front of the Bank, while two more are inside helping themselves to loot. The Sheriff started in his office and two townsfolk are in Herman's feed and seed, one in the Post office next to the bank, one in the Shinbone Gazette across from the bank, one in an outhouse behind the bank. Other potential townsfolk decided t'werent none of their bidness and skedaddled.

The Sheriff lays in a pool of his own blood, shot down as he exited his office.

With three townsfolk Obviously Dead or Out of the Fight, one hiding behind the out house with a sucking chest wound, one at home changing his briches after running away, and the last Townie armed with a Muzzle loading rifle the towns folk decide to let the Banditos go, as they can deal with the Bandito they left for dead.
