Northfield Minnesota. The James and Younger Gangs came to town and the locals came out and shot 'em to doll rags.
In Sixguns, Elmer tells about this crook from Chicago that came to town and robbed the bank. Storekeeper saw him come out of the bank with the money and a gun in his hand, and let fly with a rifle. Robber ducked and ran and took cover in the hotel. The whole town showed up outside the hotel and shot it, and the robber, plumb fulla holes. Then they throwed the bleeding Chi-badman on an east-bound for Illinois, and went back to what they had been doing when the shooting started.
