Jesse James Chapters 8-10

Chapter 8: I can't believe how fast Jesse and his men caught up to the narrator and his crew. I feel that the narrator learned a lot of skills and things from being with Jesse and his men. He toughened up after being with them because he got Cole Younger's gun from him before he tried to shoot it. I didn't really understand the fight scene because it is hard to follow who was who. At first, I thought Jesse was dead and the narrator killed him but I don't think that was the case. I feel that the narrator was not so violent until he became in Jesse's gang. He tortured Bob Younger to get information about Jesse's child Tip.

Chapter 9: I was surprised when Cole Younger out of no where, shoots the narrator and wounded him. I still didn't think he was going to make it out of there alive until he was rescued by his crew. He was taken to the hospital where Mattie Collins visited him. He basically questioned her and got her husband on his side. Her husband came up to the hospital and told him he would let him know any information he would find out.

Chapter 10: Little tells him all the information about the meeting of Jesse and his gang and all the information about who will be at the meeting. I don't know if the narrator should have trusted any of these people. If I was him, I would not let my guard down. Little also told him about Jesse and Ed Miller going off together creating their own meeting off the mountain side. Jesse killed Miller to keep the treasure hiding spot to himself. I feel like all of these men are so deceiving. They caught up with Jesse and his men and are about to catch him before the chapter ends. This story is so back and forth on who is deceiving and who is going to win the battle.
