The brief article below appeared in the Fort Benton (Montana, USA) Weekly Record of April 13th, 1877.
It is unfortunate that I was not able (at least thus far) to locate an undamaged version of the article. It is believed to be the source, or perhaps inspiration is the more accurate term, of the "always get their man" tagline attached to the Mounties.
Winder is likely William Winder, who commanded 'C' Troop during the March West in 1873, then through to his discharge in 1881.
