  Jack Neuman came to Wyoming as a fifteen-year-old orphan. He lodged with Crazy Horse and his Lakota tribe. He later scouted for the U.S. Army. Lonesome for company, Jack brought out his childhood sweetheart from Minnesota, Heather and married her, but his devotion was on destroying the bad guys, not his marriage and his beautiful young wife broke his heart. He teamed up with Calamity Jane and D. Boone May. With their gallant exploits, they were elevated to legendary heroes. Their duties found them involved in at least 8 shootouts with road agents and almost as many with hostile Sioux. They shot it out with the Frank Towles Gang after they tried robbing a stage coach near Old Woman’s Creek in Wyoming. They captured Archie McLaughlin, Billy Mansfield and their fellow gang members. They were intercepted by vigilantes who lynched McLaughlin and Mansfield. They shot and wounded the robber Tom Price while bringing them in. Boone May shot down frequent stage robber Curley Grimes. Ambros Bierce, in his days as a stage coach guard, was riding with May when they saved a $30,000 gold shipment from outlaws. Later, Bierce would memorialize the events in the tale A Sole Survivor.
