Jones had arrived in town five years before, flat broke and relying upon the generosity of the locals to help him get by. When he died, he was a wealthy man and the sole owner of the TAqIlA Mine. (He named it after his favorite drink, but Dusty never could spell.) Key people from Cactus Gulch will assemble to remember Dusty. Each one says a few words about him and his contributions to the community. Dusty’s murder will then be investigated by the guests, who will all be deputized. The suspects . . . Mayor Beauregard T. Brady - A former colonel in the Confederate cavalry, the mayor decided to seek his fortune in the West at the end of the Civil War. He remembers the details of every battle he fought in.

Chief "Hawk-Who-Watches" - Leader of the Holeecowa tribe. Is Dusty's mine located on land that historically belonged to his people? Saloon Owner Cattie Adams - She operates the local watering hole. Dusty has been a steady customer since he struck it rich - and Gila Gold has been his drink of choice. Sharpshooter Annie Elmley - The woman with the eyes of an eagle who is being recruited by Antelope Bob to be part of his Wild West show. Dusty was said to be "sweet" on her.

Hanks - He runs The Cactus Gulch Gazette. Recently, he's been investigating how Dusty was able to find the gold in them thar hills.
