Great detalis provided by the written accounts and artifacts really made the chronological walk through an enjoyable experience. Had no idea the townsfolk battled the James - Younger Gang and firced them to leave with almost nothing. Worker there was extremely knowledgeable about the event and the town's history. Must see this place if you're in town!

Very interesting visit. The Bank pretty much the way it was when the James , Younger Gang attempted to rob it. I saw Bob Youngers saddle there , it was takin off his dead horse that was shot from under him, and Clell Miller's and Cole Younger's pistles. I saw bullet holes in the building across the street from the bank. There was a lot of info about the towns people who defended their town.
