Look Out for Great Big Bess!

Plot

Young Peg Tuttle and her Grandpa came from the prairie regions of America. In 1895, they took a job on a cattle train. The journey ended at Chicago, and it was their first visit to a big city. Twi swindlers sell grandpa a traction engine, thinking he will never be able to go anywhere with it and will have to continue to pay rent on keeping it in the lot. Peg  finds a way around the law though and  they make a plan to drive the machine home, with Peg naming it ‘Great Big Bess’.

Plot

In 1871, the Western outlaws, Butch Bailey and Cass Dalton, made the worst mistake of their error-filled careers when they kidnapped orphan Kathy Morgan, mistaking her for a millionaire’s daughter.
