The Committee of the ones to deal out justice in  short order"

After receiving a threatening note following the death of her Husband, Maggie Gorman fled the Bighorn  Basin with her daughter Rose and was never heard  from again. Except that's not true.  Following a historical quest that took 20 years to solve, Terril Mills found them, and discovered how they managed  to stay hidden for so long.

Terril Mills lives on the family ranch north of Ten Sleep where he grew up. He received an associates degree in General Education from Ricks College,
Rexburg and an Agribusiness degree from Brigham Young University. After returning to Ten Sleep, he became interested in local history while attending an event where John Davis spoke about Tom and Maggie Gorman and Tom's death at the hand of his brother James. Curious about what happened to Maggie, he spent the next 20 years looking into the mystery and is here to present his results.
