I might have mixed things up a little , I was told this by my grandad a while back ....he died in 1985, and I have a memory of a gold fish.

Sorry Joe was already dead when the police arrived.
Bronco had emigrated just after the war, but came back, he always wore a stetson, thats why they nicknamed him Bronco Bill. A full account can be found in the local papers in 1935.
