| Aim: | My aim is to describe the events, raise pertinent questions, and present what evidence there is to establish the truth, as far as possible 133 years after the Montana Vigilantes took the law into their own hands and hanged 21 men in January and February of 1864. |
| Why: | If you are curious why I am so interested in chasing down the truth about the events of 133 years ago, you might want to look at a brief biography of the author. |
| How: | I assume you have modest skills in using your browser, certainly the use of the BACK and GO button on the Netscape menu. Following hypertext links can sometimes create a path that resembles a dish of spaghetti, so I have almost always let you go back to the table of contents (TOC) and start over. |
