Call in the Texas Rangers
He's probably undercover, posing as a prisoner. :)
Down here we've got for real Texas Rangers. In fact the barracks for Ranger Company "F", along with the Ranger Museum, is in Waco, about 25 road miles from downtown Crawford.
There was a famous Ranger by the name of Samuel H. Walker, though. One of the first, while Texas was the Lone Star Republic. He was the impetus behind the famous Walker Colt revolver. One of the first really practical revolvers, earlier designs being somewhat fragile for the use the Rangers would make of them.
