Two Dead By Gunshot
*Obituary for the Deceased*
The Highwayman
The Highwayman died in mid September, 1768 on horseback near the old Inn. He was a hardworking man; his current occupation until death was a robber, a bandit, a highwayman. You may remember him by how he dressed; always in a smart suit of purple/red velvet, lace at his chin, and thigh high boots. He also wore a rapier and a pistol at his hip, decorated with gold and jewels. It is said that he was shot by the redcoats and died with revenge burning in heart; for the British killed his lover/girlfriend Bess the Landlord's daughter. He is not survived by anyone.
