Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts
1. Who goes after July to tell him that Ellie left town?

Answer: Roscoe Brown

Peach with her pushy ways forces Roscoe to go after July even though the likelihood of finding him is slim in a state as big as Texas. His trip is full of worries from the start, because Roscoe has led a sheltered life.
2. Who does Roscoe befriend in the woods?

Answer: Janie

Janie is being abused by Big Sam, who bought her, and she breaks his legs while he is sleeping to escape from him and to follow Roscoe, moving faster in bare feet than he does on his horse!
3. What does Janie like to catch and eat?

Answer: Frogs

She likes to ask people if they've ever eaten a frog and no one has, which she thinks is funny.
4. When Roscoe is robbed and almost killed by two men, what does Janie do?

Answer: She hides and throws rocks at the men.

The robbers shoot at Janie for throwing the rocks at them and July hears the gunfire, fires back, scaring off the robbers and reunites with Roscoe.
5. Meanwhile, Jake has taken off to gamble, leaving Laurie alone at their campsite. Gus discovers her alone. When they go into the water to cool off, who shows up?

Answer: Blue Duck

Gus watches Blue Duck approach from the ridge of a mountain, riding an old Mexican saddle that he probably killed the Mexican for. Gus tells Laurie that she needs to go get his gun, give it to him and hide.
6. When Newt is ordered by Gus to stay at the camp with Laurie until Jake gets back, what happens to him on the way to her campsite?

Answer: Blue Duck knocks him out cold.

Why did Call and Gus ever think that Newt could handle Blue Duck and protect himself and Laurie?
7. When Gus goes after Laurie by himself and gets chased by Blue Duck's gang, who scares them off?

Answer: July Johnson, Roscoe Brown and company

July and Roscoe explain that they just happened to ride through the area, fired their guns and Blue Duck's gang took off.
8. When Gus and July go into Blue Duck's camp to rescue Laurie - Roscoe, Janie and Joe are killed by Blue Duck.

Answer: True

It is so hard to take that Blue Duck would murder these innocents. This was very sad and a lot more graphic in the book, which I won't go into here.
9. July never gets a shot off at Blue Duck's camp.

Answer: True

Gus asks July if he has ever killed a man before and July had not. Gus is so fast that he kills all the men, except one, who is already dying.
10. What is the real reason Gus came on this cattle drive to Montana?

Answer: To reunite with Clara, his true love.

He dreams of being with Clara and hopes that he gets a chance to marry her, but things don't quite turn out that way.
11. Meanwhile, Jake Spoon takes up with a bad group of men. The ring leader kills anyone he feels like. What explanation does Jake give Gus as to why he went with these men?

Answer: To get through the territory.

They told Jake they are going to rob banks, and he is ok with that, yet uncomfortable immediately.
12. Laurie and Gus are back at cattle camp and Deets finds some of the murdered victims from the group Jake is with. Deets believes that Jake is one of them. Who goes after the bad men?

Answer: Call, Gus, Deets, Newt and Pea Eye

Very sad scene at the hanging when Jake says goodbye and hopes there are no hard feelings, then kicks his horse and hangs himself. Gus with tears in his eyes says, .."He died fine."
13. Ellie, Big Sway and Luke make it to Clara's farm just before Ellie has her baby. Ellie abandons her baby and leaves with the two men to find Dee Boot in jail in Ogallala. Why is Dee Boot in jail?

Answer: For killing a boy.

Ellie only gets to see Dee briefly at the jail because she faints from the blood loss after having the baby. When she wakes up the next time you see her, Dee has already been hung.
14. July rides into Clara's farm and finds out that Ellie has been there and left the baby with Clara. What does Clara name the baby?

Answer: Martin

Clara had three boys of her own that past away. She was sure glad to get another chance at being a mother to a little boy. She likes young things.
15. After July finds Ellie, all she can talk about is Dee Boot. He leaves her bedside so she can rest. The next day she has left town with Big Sway and Luke for where?

Answer: St Louis

The doctor tells July he told them they might as well leave their scalps here. The army had the indians all stirred up. He was right about those scalps, unfortunately.
