The next day, Saturday, the miners returned to town to spend their hard earned money. After a stand-off with the mine overseers the posse met with Jose Green who told them of the goings on at the mines. They spent the night in the miners ghetto.
In the morning Oscar and John Phillipe went to church and met a very drunk Father O'Leary. Meanwhile the Kid snuck off to scrounge stuff and was given a note that said:
If you want to know what's really going on in town meet me in the hills north of the church tomorrow night.

On returning to the Empire the posse was called out and Oscar easily cleaned up two opponents out front while John Phillipe chased a mysterious mechanical into their rooms and destroyed it. Noticing a man in a stove-pipe hat trying to sneak away he used his huckster skills to call down hellfire on him. Investigating the blast zone showed crawling tracks that led to some strange steam engine tracks that headed off in the direction of Mimbres.
The posse decided to rest the night and set off after the steam wagon in the morning. That night the Kid finished his Hawk-Eyes invention.
