First we run into Bonnie and Dickie Calhan spying? on the new sheriff. Dickie is determined to tell the sheriff about the bank robbers. [grin, what an exchange between brother, 8 and sister 11].

Molly, 31, has been a widow for four years. And has shown no interest in remarrying. She has a store to run and children to raise. But she doesn't see any reason to prejudge a man because of his scandalous past.

The ladies gathered in Calhan's General Store to discuss the new sheriff and why he was a divorced man.
We meet Coreyanne Campbell, the widow Thelma Thompson, Emmy Lou Trainer and 19 year old Louisa Merton [who turns out to be surprise].
These are some of the members of the Elk City Ladies Society.

DeWitt Gavin 33, gains the attention of the men of Elk City when he floors Crazy Mike, a biggg miner who gets drunk a few times a year because his gal left him.
Witt, himself, is described as a mountain of a man. And he sure likes candy. Molly floors him by giving him a handful of chocolate creams.

Then the candy became his excuse to see Molly although he couldn't allow any interest to grow. His ex did a number on him.

Molly decided to take matters into her own hands and began it with a kiss. Oh Boy! It keeps getting better.
There is the subtle suggestion of the banker putting the move on Molly and DeWitt already wants to rearrange his features.
