Herman lifts his
telescope when he sees a cloud of dust coming around the bend created by the
team of running horses. To his surprise,
and pleasure, there are two men sitting up on top of the coach. One is the driver and the other is holding a
shotgun.
Herman sends Clyde to
tell their brothers the gold is on this wagon and to make sure they follow the
plan.
Clyde gets back into
position up on the ridge and they wait patiently for the stage to come near
their ambush.
As the coach
approaches Clyde takes a shot at the lead horse in front of the driver. Immediately the right front horse is shot
from the gulley by Ernie. Both horses
fall and momentum causes the remaining four horses to topple over the two
fallen animals. The coach is lifted
upwards by the momentum and rises on top of the horses. There is nothing the driver can do; the stage
topples on its side. Two horses are
probably dead and the other four might be injured.
