The Journey of the Brubaker Family

The Brubaker family was driven northward from the Civil War; from southern Illinois through Montana, and eventually 400 miles up the Saskatoon River, to a village called Timber Falls.

Jeff becomes a guide, taking many trophies along the way. He was made a Royal Mounted policeman at age 19. He makes a new friend from Montana, Bill Waterston; he brings a pair of big horses by train, 82. The first team of horses, to Timber Falls.

Adding to his string of mules with his old faithful friend Sam, they form a service like no other. He eventually marries Sandy, and when Train 82 is robbed of its gold, Sandy is taken hostage.

When Jeff recognized one of the descriptions of the robbers, he calls a young friend Jake into action. Drawing on the conclusion that he once met two of those robbers by cabin number two, he uses his powerful team of horses and his friend Jake to track down the would-be killers of his wife Sandy.

When he is told that the robbers headed north, he assumes where they were heading, saddles their horses, and goes on an all-night pursuit. Eventually, he overtakes the robbers, kills two of the five robbers, and brings the rest to trial.

They are eventually sentenced to hang for their crimes; Jeff and Sandy are awarded by the court. 12% of the gold and Sandy is awarded 10% as the victim of the crime.

They eventually move on with their lives, have a family, and are in charge of the logging camp and guiding service, as well as maintaining law and order in the village of Timber Falls.
