Our latest Grey Panthers' piece is now available over at RueMorgue.com.
Whiskey Gulch is a sleepy little hamlet in the Oregon Territory. In July, 1878, three ruthless outlaw women, known as the Millican Marauders hear that a wealthy woman in Whiskey Gulch has a lot of jewelry. They set out to raid the sleepy town, and are willing to kill everybody there. But, the townspeople are forewarned and they ambush the violent women. A Western style gunbattle ensues with the outlaws and the townspeople exchanging multiple gun shots.
In the end two of the town's women and all three outlaws lay dead. They all die violently.
